I do not have to suffer with such design flaw. I use Arch with the glitchy mess known as Hyprland.

As OP stated, it’s still there, just barely visible. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Right, didn’t read.

Fork.

Mint FTW

Monster!

It might be available in Ubuntu Pro, with star support expanded to 10 billion years.

This lobster is stellar, not lunar. How do you even tolerate that?

Anti_Weeb_Penguin , 10 months ago

This is why I prefer Linux Mint.

Wallpapers?

Most Ubuntu forks are about changing the wallpaper and other cosmetics.

lud , 10 months ago

No, they are about the DE not being Gnome.

woelkchen , 10 months ago

No, they are about the DE not being Gnome.

I didn’t mean the official Ubuntu flavors, I meant 3rd party Ubuntu variants. Stuff like archiveos.org/ubuntu-satanic/ which is literally just about changing a few graphics.

There is a star there. It’s just so far away the light hasn’t reached the wallpaper yet.

Mugmoor , 10 months ago

It’s moving away from us so fast it blended in with the red background.

as much as I hate it, I like the little nod to the imperfections of real constellations

FlyingSquid , 10 months ago

You think that’s annoying, this is what the Ancient Greeks decided was a scorpion in the sky.

This is somehow a ram.

Psilocybin was likely involved.

Isn’t that how all constellations came about?

Sure, but it’s still just some dudes playing join-the-dots in the sky. None of it means anything.

Swedneck , 10 months ago (edited 10 months ago)

Edit: So apparently what i first wrote up can be summarized as “Asterisms are more relevant and sensible than constellations”…

original commentEspecially nowadays with light pollution it’s easy to tell which constellations make sense, the top ones in the northern sky IMO being: Cassiopeia, Ursa Major, Orion, Cygnus (really just the middle 4 stars), and Ursa Minor but mostly because that’s got Polaris in it and it’s the most important star. Also fun anecdote: When i was a kid and didn’t know any constellations other than orion, cassiopeia, and ursa major; i independently recognized the middle 4 stars of cygnus and called it the Pilot because it looks like the front view of a jet fighter, so how’s THAT for being a sensible constellation!

bionicjoey , 10 months ago

That’s way more of a scorpion than some other constellations are their thing

br3d , 10 months ago

Rotate it 90 degrees to the right

FlyingSquid , 10 months ago

Why? That doesn’t make it look more like a scorpion.

XEAL , 10 months ago

I… see it now

“Close enough, fuck it.” — National motto of Ancient Greece

Catoblepas , 10 months ago

I’ve heard that not having access to actual dark skies free of light pollution makes it a lot harder to see/understand how people could see figures in constellations, and that extremely faint light from other stars, nebulas, etc adds to the experience. Allegedly it makes Orion’s belt easier to see. I’ve never had access to a sky dark enough to test it in person, though.

I’m not saying it’s useless. I’m just saying it doesn’t look like a scorpion.

RogueBanana , 10 months ago

Uh that one is a rare case of constellation actually look like what it’s supposed to be. It’s pretty easy to see the scorpion tail imo. Doesn’t have all the legs obviously but still close enough to consider it as one.

Octopus1348 , 10 months ago

It looks like a hook.

Constellations in real life

nxfsi , 10 months ago

Constellations aren’t even real lmao

lud , 10 months ago

Yes, they are.

There aren’t literal lines in space of course, but the concept is absolutely real.

Swedneck , 10 months ago

Also like, people tend to draw roughly the same lines, at least for asterisms.

I can’t imagine many people, regardless of culture, would look at the northern cross or the big dipper and not draw almost exactly the same lines as everyone else.

Better?

Nouveau_Burnswick , 10 months ago

Yes but now fix the middle right tail intersection that is also starless.

mp3 , 10 months ago

It’s actually really faint, but it’s there.

Nouveau_Burnswick , 10 months ago

Upon closer inspection, you are correct

wegettosss , 10 months ago
