Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Censored out some PII. The Desktop cycles through a bunch of different Deimos Fallout New Vegas art. If you don't know the artist they're awesome: https://deimosart.com/

I'm pretty in love with the way my computer looks now lol. Even the Plymouth theme is a Sunset Sarsaparilla thing I made (check my post history for that).

Wow, that's so cool. Obviously New Vegas is one of the best first person roleplaying games, and my favorite, so this hits just right.

It's a shame Microsoft ruined the red/yellow combination almost 40 years ago with the "hotdog stand" theme which I can't help compare other red/yellow themes against.

Theme in question.

My retinas thank you for the spoiler, but they are not happy with me for clicking it.

Oh god. That's atrocious lol.

Try out umbriel. It's like the gap between niri and hyprland and is from the noctalia dev.

Well niri is actually perfect for me because I am a gesture user. All my navigation is done with mousepad gestures.

Yes, its near the same like niri but it has also rounded corners and blur.

[–] WhiplashPost@programming.dev 1 points 1 day ago

Well I do have a blur thing on here. I edited Noctalia to remove the rounded corners. I like them sharp for this theme. It fits the fallout vibe more imo. Will have to try Umbriel out at some point but I'm pretty happy with the result I got from this theme for now.
