It is like Nix, but cleaner.

There is not much choice for drawing diagrams, dia is old school and draw.io is big.

Friendly tiling setup for a laptop? (tiling window manager?) in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] Drito@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago

The easier setup I found is Xfce with WM swapped for BSPWM. You can do every window manipulation with mouse (while Super key pressed).

My Lenovo from 2015 has an option to fallback to Bios. And I used it.

my reason why you should use KDE+Krohnkite instead of WMs in c/linux@lemmy.ml

Personally, I haven't had any issues with the aspect ratio. I use a spiral algorithm, this is the defaut on bspwm. I suspect that many people that try twm dont use spiral splitting so windows can be opened in tiny slice and this is ridiculous of course.

I3 or Sway are not the best choice IMHO. Many people think about these WM when they talk about tilling as an overhyped feature used just for unixporn posts. Stop with I3 or Sway please. AwesomeWM or Qtile are more automatised, this is a great added value allowed by tilling for everyday use.

What's up with distrowatch and MX Linux? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] Drito@sh.itjust.works 1 points 6 months ago

MX is a new name for Mepis. Part of MX and AntiX contributors are the same persons. MX got kernel compiled by AntiX, that particularily suits old hardware. Also the Xfce setup is more modern comparing to the default provided by Debian.

I use MX since years. I did distrohopping before, started by Manjaro then Mint, NixOS, MX, Alpine... One day Archlabs, my distro at the time, was closed, I had to switch quickly and MX was an obvious choice because I can have a nice Xfce setup out of the box and it was the most reliable of all distro I tried without being a fork of a fork like Mint. One day I asked about a package update on the forum, and a maintainer quickly answered me that it shouldnt be a problem and the package was added in some test repo. MX is not a scam, I dont know why this distro dont make noise on the classic linux places, maybe because Mint took the place of the easy beginner distro ? Or also the average MX prefer to use its computer to do stuff, than talking about his OS on the internet 😆

So I tried windows tiling... in c/linux@lemmy.ml

Too much people, including some popular youtuber, dont understand how tilling WMs make life easier.

Why Guix packages are unsuitable for graphical desktop apps ?

Is it safe to use a ghost Arch derivative ? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Hello, Archlabs is gone . I use this distro so I wonder If I can still update it safely ?

My /etc/pacman.conf

#[testing]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[core]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[extra]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

#[community-testing]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[community]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

# The multilib repositories are enabled by default in ArchLabs.
# If you don't run 32 bit applications you may comment them out

#[multilib-testing]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[multilib]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

# [archlabs-testing]
# Server =  https://pub-7d84e047b852442a86fd6d7feb1ff2cd.r2.dev/$repo/$arch
# Server =  https://github.com/ArchLabs/$repo/raw/master/$arch
# Server =  https://bitbucket.org/archlabslinux/$repo/raw/master/$arch

[archlabs]
Server = https://pub-7d84e047b852442a86fd6d7feb1ff2cd.r2.dev/$repo/$arch
Server = https://bitbucket.org/archlabslinux/$repo/raw/master/$arch
Server = https://github.com/ArchLabs/$repo/raw/master/$arch
Server = https://sourceforge.net/projects/archlabs-repo/files/$repo/$arch

If it is unsafe how I can turn this into a normal arch ?
