Bspwm has many appeals, and I do not want to focus on those. I want to focus on binary-tree separation of windows and its benefits vs alternatives. What’s the appeal?...
LPT: If you’re not a fan of where Android or iOS is going but have to use one, buy a used phone to avoid giving money directly to ill-intentioned manufacturers. Then use some of the savings to support Linux Mobile Distro development!...
Hello everybody! I can say I’m a newbie at Linux. Wanted to ask about Linux’ task viewers. On the famous task viewers such as bpytop, htop etc., can viruses hide from them? Excluding the injected codes, can virus & tracker/logger softwares hide from classic task viewers of Linux? Do they show all kinds of services and...
Hello! I have chosen some parts for a PC based around a monitor I currently have. I have a 4k monitor and the games I’d like to play on it and the current PC I have isn’t cutting it anymore unfortunately....
I want to create a minimal install for mpv playback through jellyfin-mpv-shim and macast. this is going to be a base for a FOSS media sink akin to a Chromecast. you attach it to your TV and it plays whatever you send it, like movies from your jellyfin server and youtube/vimeo/piped/etc videos. otherwise, there’s no interaction...
Everywhere I am there is a guy running a leaf blower. At my house, leaf blowers everywhere all day long. At work, of course, leaf blowers blowing dirt and allergens into the air. It’s such a special noise, it goes through walls and headphones so effectively. They are the most pervasive, annoying things on the planet. I hate...

This project is also a passion project. I seek to improve my skills by working on the application and I am not looking forward to expand it...
For weeks, I can’t reach qwant maps anymore. Is it down for you guys as well? Does anyone know anything? There isn’t even a mention on their main pages of it anymore. They just purged everything without further notice. Is that the same experience for you? I’m accessing with a VPN from within france.
I use Tor every once in a while for basic web browsing just to add some regular traffic to the network and not just dark web traffic. I mainly use it for Reddit as they lock to block me because of my VPN IP but don’t block Tor IP and occasionally other stuff. I know Tor is made so that everyone looks the same but, I am not...

i tried out plasma on opensuse (in a vm) and liked how they handle panels, i especially liked how i could set the bar to be only as wide as the content inside it....
Does anyone have a Feker Alice 80 and modded it? I am asking, because from the pictures it looks like the tenting angle decreases from the middle to the outside of the keeb. Technically, it seems to be a split keeb with two PCB. Judging from the few views on the PCBs I found, these are straight. Anything else would surprised me....
