Don’t listen to the naysayers. This is fun and people like seeing similar-minded dorks out and about. Having said that, I wouldn’t put some business logo on my computer. But a community distro, why not? Been there done that.

palordrolap , in Bash not sourcing .profile automatically in Debian 11

.profileis only sourced when the shell is a login shell. Most shells started by terminal emulators under a GUI are not login shells.

Depending on how you connect to a machine, you may or may not get a login shell. Through SSH or similar may well get you a login shell. Using the text-console (usually through Ctrl+Alt+F1 through F6 on modern distros) also yields a login shell.

Try putting things in your .bashrc instead. That one is sourced regardless of login shell or not.

If you're not using bash, substitute the relevant file. .zshrc and .config/fish are the main two.

Thanks, that works with the flatpaks. However, it doesn’t seem to work with nix packages. I mean rofi doesn’t detect the .desktop files for packages installed using nix.

Gentoo is fast and cool but I think it’s not meant for beginners

Use Balena Etcher to “burn” (the correct term is flash) the iso on the usb

Why not export them rather than requiring people to install Inkscape just to view the files?

RockyC OP ,

Inkscape isn’t necessary. Any app that can open SVG files should work.

StudioLE ,

I’ll rephrase. Why require an editor? The most common viewers of SVG do not support layers

RockyC OP ,

I suppose that I’m just too lazy after spending tens of hours locating 71 different high resolution logo files, a bunch of different word marks, researching and installing various typefaces, creating layers, groups, precisely aligning and resizing stuff 71 different times, converting all the text into outlines, hiding all the layers, creating a repository, uploading to GitHub, and then offering it to anyone for free.

StudioLE ,

That’s what I was questioning. Why do do the work but then not make it accessible?

It’s a similar thought to this topic: lemmy.world/post/3179113

RockyC OP ,

It IS accessible. SVG is a standard format that can be opened by any number of different programs across multiple operating systems.

Just because you chose not to install one of those programs is not my problem.

I don’t get mad when I need to open a pdf but I don’t have a pdf reader. I install a fucking pdf reader.

Get off of your horse, dude.

lud , (edited )

Remind me and I could probably fix separate files for every icon. Shouldn’t be too bad with slices in Affinity Designer.

Edit: I opened a pull request.

StudioLE ,

Perfect!

QuazarOmega ,

What image viewer are you using? Both Gwenview and Loupe display Inkscape Layers flawlessly for me

BloodSlut ,

my brother in christ, SVG is a universal vector format

StudioLE ,

I’ll rephrase. Why require an editor? The most common viewers of SVG do not support layers.

lord_ryvan ,

Just open it in your webbrowser, even most image viewers (I think including eog and xviewer) can open them as images.

#I don’t have pride. They’re computers man.

Drito , in I just started using Linux... any great tips?

I suggest to watch the package manager commands (probably ‘apt --help’) and use it for your packages. Package stuff is what I use the most in the terminal.

Why not just “Powered by Linux” and slab a penguin on the machine?

    You might not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like

    Torvalds was looking for something fun and sympathetic to associate with Linux, and he felt that a slightly fat penguin sitting down after having eaten a great meal perfectly fit the bill

    Seems like nothing with dignity was intended … which fits perfectly. 🙃

    QuazarOmega ,

    May I shamelessly plug my alteranate design?
    I picked it up, lost motivation, dropped it, again and again, so it’s in a sorry state (shoot, I am in a sorry state), but here goes:

    Nice job! And sometimes, things are just “done,” not “abandoned.”

    QuazarOmega ,

    Glad you like it!
    It’s not so much the icon itself, but more what I wanted to do with it, I was asked if there was a Plymouth theme with that so I thought to make it in Blender and then generate the Plymouth animation, but I never completely succeeded because I didn’t understand how it works so in my tests the aspect ratio was all off, I still don’t know who I could ask for help with that

    ladyanita22 , in Why I use Ubuntu (Alan Pope)

    He likes Ubuntu because he’s familiar with it, plain and simple. He dislikes Arch because of the toxic trolls there, and dislikes Fedora for… undisclosed reasons…

    Is it really a reason for pride to run a certain kernel?

    db2 ,

    Maybe if you backport hardware support (including x86_64) and bug fixes manually from mainline to 2.4 and compile it as a 64-bit kernel with GCC-2.95.3 for a Ryzen. That’d pretty much get you whatever stickers you wanted. 🤣

    iopq ,

    I run the mainline kernel. The pride part is my system is built in a reproducible way, with all of the packages versioned and having versioned dependencies.

    For example, my wine is from the stable channel, but the rest are from the unstable channel, but there are no conflicts because the dependencies are not installed globally

    If you are managing to successfully use TempleOS as a daily driver, I think you can be allowed to be proud of that.

    zagaberoo ,

    I see it more as pride in the community and administrators. Plenty of distros are complete passion projects and aren’t undeserving of pride.

    CrypticCoffee , in New responsibilities - Bastien Nocera

    Ah, so IBM are in control of Red Hat.

    I think it seems the timescale to pretend you aren’t going to change anything is 2-5 years.

    Don’t expect anything from these big corps, just fork (if you really must), and move on.

    I use sway wm with the foot terminal emulator. If you do not like manual tiling I have heard good things about river wm.

    nx2 , in [Shower Thought] I was never "good" at Linux CLI, ChatGPT has helped tremendously

    I love it when I ask it to write a complicated thing and I expect like a multiline complicated thing into thing piped into another in a loop with a ton of if else, and it just goes like

    
    <span style="color:#323232;">read &lt;&lt;&lt;$2| grep -diwzG 69> ${^awk 'printf $$3'}
    </span>
    

    or something, and it does exactly what I wanted it to do
