chinstrap,

Java 2. World is full of wonders

chinstrap,

i didn’t mean as a version. I meant as overuse of streams

chinstrap,

what did you use instead of conky?

chinstrap,

so you don’t use wayland

chinstrap,

If you manage to infect your systemd unit list which requires root privilege and give it a permission to run on boot I don’t think it’s an attack vector anymore its one’s stupidity. Systemd is the furthest thing from an outside attack. Someone might poison your bashrc and its more possible than someone inserting a malicious unit file and asking you to run.

chinstrap,

If the fonts are installed as systemwide snap or flatpak applications may not be able to see them. Since they are allowed only to the user directories by default.

You can copy the fonts to user directory

cp /usr/share/fonts/your-font ~/.local/share/fonts/

I am once again considering to write my own window manager

...unless the setup I am thinking of is already possible, let me construct this in your head:

On the top of the screen, there is narrow status bar, which is split into two parts. On the right side of the bar, you have your clock, your battery, your signal strength and so on.

On the left side, there is a clickable tab for every window you have opened. It's like browser tabs: Every window always uses the entire space below the status bar.

On the far left, there could be an icon which opens a searchable list of applications, kind of like #dmenu but vertical. Everything supports mouse input as you would expect.

Does that exist? Should I make it? It would be awesome for smaller screens, like phones.

Edit: I should add that I'm planning to run it on a Nokia N900 with a single 600 MHz CPU core, 256 MB RAM and a resolution of 800×480 pixels. Existing full desktop environments like Xfce4, LXDE, and so on are way to heavy to run.

chinstrap,

I think the awesomeWM has the status bar you’ve described.

GOA or Gnome Online Accounts basically pings the target site that has the requested WebDAV and IMAP(for the calendar, events, tasks and email). Which occurs between every 10 to 15 minutes. Every ping GOA makes contains Browser Agent information. In that case, it’s GOA instead of a browser. It contains simple information like which distribution and its version are you using. Since it’s running under the Gnome, the desktop environment name can be extracted as well. However, GOA is a standalone application that can be used on Cinnamon, MATE, and XFCE. So that part is pretty useless. But when the Google Drive is used, it is mounted to your disk with GVfsd. It has to send every action you make to that directory to Google since the directory is not physically mounted .

chinstrap,

Clear victory https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/86c64291-de86-4e94-8da1-e84838a6ab86.jpeg
