A dilemma I’ve experienced in “ricing” is that it is a lot of work, and it looks better the more work and detail you put in to it.
But the more work an detail, the more your rice is dependent on the wallpaper. It gets so specialized, that when you change wallpaper, even one within the same general category of colors and theme, it all falls apart.
I’d like to make a small handful of “rices” that go well with a range of wallpapers. I guess that the dilemma then again is that the whole thing gets a little bland an nondescript.
What do you folks do? (I’m already aware of the advice "spend less time thinking about rice and looks )
that’s why i dont do my rices based purely on the wallpapers, because then you cant change the wallpaper and if you do it all falls apart, i always try to find colors what i can use with lots of wallpapers i also look witch wallpapers fits the best to my scheme. and i like to swap my wallpaper almost daily sometimes multiple times a day because i get bored easy.
no changes really wallpaper about it. I did fix the errors I saw in my conkys so things should display a little nicer. Not sure but I see changes coming
This screenshot was before I had to install GIMP and didn’t notice a new folder was created under “Home/Pictures” because the screenshooter didn’t advise about it. GIMP crashed right after I exported this to PNG and… (sigh) it is the latest version/release.
More than two months of daily-driving Linux. I just went through my desktop screenshots and wow, I really have not changed a lot of things! It’s a good indicator for me, it means I made the right DE pick. In fact, only the wallpaper and number of dock icons changed… and Pop Shell is now a staple for me.
Ever since I was a little kid, I’ve always wanted one, but I could never afford or warrant spending the money on a Mac. My wife gave me her old laptop a couple days ago since we got her a new one - she loves it, and is running Fedora on it very nicely.
I was going to just sell this, but, I’m so excited to FINALLY after like 20 years or more, have a Mac. I literally don’t think I’ve used Mac more than like an hour in my whole life, so this is awesome. It feels A LOT like GNOME. So here it is! First for me!
It (very shamefully) took me like 4+ hours to figure out how to just restore this damn thing to factory specs. Keyboard is really nice, maybe not quite as nice as my Thinkpad, but pretty close.
My settings on EOS KDE
Wallpaper change every 5 min with Variety (probably one cause of high RAM usage on boot, might change that). Running xwayland, which makes KDE a lot more usable (in my opinion). Then I have Latte dock at the bottom.
I inherited an early '09 iMac last year, it was fun to mess with. Had it running elementary for a bit. I’ve never gotten the chance to own or use a MacBook though.
@shjim does some of the best desktops here. That last one could have been either OpenSUSE or Gecko “Tumbleweed”, like the dark green and with XFCE, not Plasma!
Now I have to look further up in this topic another one that he did which was just awesome. I think he lives for this.
