 Okay, I'm here Welcome everybody who's watching if I could get a yay or nay on the audio. I'd be much appreciative I do have a fan going unfortunately. That's gonna have to stay Hopefully it's not causing too many problems. I'm gonna Mess around with GNOME this evening, I guess I've been using it now full-time I haven't logged into a single other window manager or desktop environment a whole day That will change after the stream because I have to do some Rising and awesome for a video, but after that I'll be going right back to GNOME Yeah Yay, awesome. Thank you. How's everybody doing? I probably streamed for about an hour or so Maybe a little bit longer. We'll see most of my Task for this evening is going to be finishing doing the key bindings that I need to change and maybe a little ricing The one thing I'm not going to do is install any extensions. So I Can't and I won't use the default theme for GNOME in fact, I'm already not using it so That's just because I said Alex appearance and another window manager, but I Just can't use that a wait there or whatever hell it's called. I just it's so so ugly. So Yeah, that's what I'll be doing tonight And then I'll probably talk a little bit about my initial impressions Some problems that I've had so far Some things that I like Astonishingly there are some things that I like I Will talk a bit about those things tonight. I Will make a video next weekend about my whole week because I Want to make sure that I get it all, you know All the ideas in one place on a video for that everybody can watch because I know not everybody watches the live streams But you'll get a little bit of a preview of what I'm thinking so far as We go along this evening That's my plan as much as I can be said to have a plan If you've watched my live streams before you'll know that planning is not something that I How would I put this do at all? I don't planning is not my strong suit. So yeah Do I think that Waylon is better than X or advanced that is no not yet? Are you doing Tim? Yeah, let's see. We see shmoy here. How are you? So you say your name? I know everybody says your name differently max is here Pirote I think is how you pronounce that analytic minded art centers here. How are you doing art center? How are you doing bud? A mod I think this is how you pronounce it. I'm gonna put I'm gonna mispronounce everybody's name. So I apologize for that Yeah No, the question is do I think Wayland is the future? Maybe someday that's gonna take all it's gonna be a long while Xorg is gonna be around for quite a while. Yeah Because there's so many applications that just don't support it really well again one of those is OBS OBS has Waylon support, but it's not good Waylon support. So right now I am using the Xorg version because I wanted to make sure OBS would work I'm glad I could got two waters this time cuz damn. I'm so thirsty tonight What I think with Xorg is that it just got too big So once I got too big they couldn't maintain it anymore. So they had to go do something different I'm using Genoma next word because like I said, I couldn't get I Don't have a good luck with getting OBS use working on Wayland Although somebody did send me a package that I can install to try to get it to work. I haven't tried it yet I look like I just woke up that's not even completely possible because I've been up since six o'clock this morning. So Yeah, I did not just get up I'm using GNOME 40. Something Cuz GNOME 41 Interestingly enough is not in the arch repose yet. Of course my collar is wrong Used to be college shirts. Hey me. Anyways, let's go ahead and show you what I got so far So this is my GNOME thing so far Now you'll see that I do have a theme Already being used but that's because I set that theme in LX appearance in DWM. That's why there's a Dracula thing here But I will probably change that to something different I'll browse her on for some themes change the wallpaper But I guess first I'll talk about some things that I like and dislike so let's start positive the things that I like it is Very fast. It's not as slow as It used to be like these animations are really really good And It used to be like when you went into the application drawer that took like I had that little stupid wave Um The stupid wave thing that you know, they fanned out the applications and it took like 30 seconds to do and it's just so dumb But this is much faster, so I like that it's fast I also like I'm trying to think of some of the things that I like about it because there are some things here I Guess I like the simplicity of the layout I like this here this this Multitasking overview it's kind of nice. It's definitely better than it used to be I do and enjoy it Um, I do think that the previews up here could be a little bit more informative as to what they are Um, I mean you can barely tell that those things are apps. You know what I mean? so But you know whatever I'm sure as I go along there'll be more things that occur to me that I like A few things that I dislike so first off I cannot get my screens my monitors to go to sleep There's some dependency that I'm missing or something that it just will not let my screens go to sleep So my computer screens that have stayed on all day long even when I've walked away from the computer and that's not great I also The only other option in their power settings, so if I go to settings here The only other options in their power settings is Suspend and I don't want my computer suspended because I just literally turns it off and remembers your position I don't want that So I had to turn off I'd much rather the screen go blank after a minute or five minutes or whatever But it just won't so that's stupid. I don't think that that's a good thing. I think that's an arch thing You want me to do a quick H top? Resize this There you go. Yeah, it's using about six gigabytes, but get a remember I have OBS running and I have two instances of Firefox so bernard the most thing that's taking most of the C CPU and stuff is going to be OBS and Xorg So yeah Well, but um, yeah, the screen-blanking thing is but is is bothering me. I got to fix that Another thing that really bothers me is the default Keybindings are horrible and nonsensical and stupid And in many other adjectives that I can't think of right now And they're just not good at all and sometimes and the worst part is they're inconsistent. So if you're on workspace to And you want to go to workspace one That works so if you can do super one and it will take you to the first workspace But if you're on works space one and want to go to workspace two by default That's like super space or something. It's a weird key binding and That's just I mean, that's just inconsistent It's just weird so I've changed all those I suppose I could do Go back here and where the keyboard was keyboard Right here and then set keyboard shortcuts So the ones that I've changed so far are all here Basically, I just To make sure I could change through different workspaces Who has 62 get it's 64 gigabytes memory But the way when clinics counts memory is different depending on what desktop environment slash distro you're using so it's 64 Just like when you buy a hard drive whatever you don't get the full 500 gigabytes to use there's parts of it that are portioned off anyways There's just the rest of the key bindings are just weird so I'm gonna have to go through and change those Those are some things that I didn't like. I've also had it so that for whatever reason Firefox when you first open it freaks out like it flashes on the screen. I'm not sure what the hell is going on with that I did end up having to switch back to Firefox because fucking brave kept making me log in and log out of my YouTube account Which is dumb Well one thing about Linux and RAM usage is that the more RAM you give it the more it's gonna take especially with You know, it likes to soak up the RAM Pretty much anything GTK based actually Let's see what else that have I found that I didn't like I don't like I would love to be able to make this Doc stay up all the time like I know you can do that with an extension But I like why can't you do that by default that would be cool. I don't want to have to Why can't I just go to the bottom of the screen and Have that come up. I mean, it's it's fine that it's auto hot, you know auto hide But or if it were auto hide, but this way I Have to hit a key on the keyboard and go down here navigate with my mouse Or I have to use one of the ridiculous key bindings to start up one of the applications that are in the favorites Which is you know, fine, whatever but That's still something that is something I would have to customize because I don't want the default key bindings so I don't even know where the key bindings for The favorites would be Accessibility maybe decreased text size No, this is all that stuff. I better put the lid on that just in case No, it's clumsy. I've been today. I probably knocked that water all over my keyboard Let's see what else I haven't gone through much of the settings other than just the keyboard stuff I do have tweaks installed the only thing I've changed here Is that I've made it so that the workspaces span across this place because by default prior to GNOME 41 If You have when we use workspaces you can only use workspaces on your primary monitor The other monitor only gets one workspace and that's it. It's the dumbest thing ever So you actually need to use GNOME tweaks, which is a hack in order to get that to work Now in GNOME 41, apparently they fixed that which is good. The other thing that's stupid And this is something that GNOME has done forever that if I change if I change workspaces to go to one here and I Go back to three The workspaces on both monitors change so it workspace one Spans across both monitors and workspace three it spans across both monitors all the workspaces span across both monitors There's no way for me to go through and make it so I can just change the workspace on one monitor and have the other one Stay the same so if I wanted my if I was working here on workspace three But I wanted to keep OBS and Firefox up. I Couldn't actually do that and change to workspace to because that also goes away It's Infuriating and as far as I know you can't even change it in tweaks Like that's not the way Workspaces should work. It's just not If you have two monitors usually those should count as separate workspaces Honestly, that's probably the biggest problem. I've had so far with you know I'm is that is that workspace thing because I'm a huge workspace guy and I use workspaces all the time I have stuff right now on three workspaces and which should theoretically be six workspaces Because I have it should be split between both monitors, but it's not so Yeah, that's the one reason for me just to never use gonna because you can't fix that as far as I know the stupid thing is in the settings As far as I know There are no Workspace Related settings at all Like I've never seen them like I can't find them and another thing like this Settings app isn't as complicated as jeep as plasma settings app. We can all admit that But that doesn't mean that there's not a ton of stuff here. Why isn't there search? Why can't you do search inside this application? Oh wait, maybe can you can okay cool workspaces No, just the keyboard settings. Okay. I'm glad there is search there. It's just you know kind of hidden So I don't have to bet you about that But still no workspace settings here. There's no hot corner There's yeah, I said there's no hot corner Settings here now I understand in you know 41 you can change the hot corner to being off But honestly, I would kind of like to have the hot corner on I would just like to alter it to use the other side Or maybe the the bottom or something I don't know it'd be cool to be able to set the hot corner to the bottom You know left or whatever and have that bring up Your multitasking panel or something that'd be cool But you can't it has to be up here and that's the stupidest thing ever because you already have a button up there That does the same thing. It's so stupid So it's like duplication of effort like just moving your Button up there is the same amount of effort is moving your mouse up there and clicking it takes no extra effort at all So yeah, that's stupid Other than it's been really weird For a whole day being in a floating window manager because I'm so used to tiling and Just I I find myself grabbing hold of apps and doing this all the time like a fidget spinner because I'm just so used to this not being able to even be possible or like without at least a chic key a quiche keyboard shortcut and I just you know do this all the time. It's like who cool. Look how fast and smooth it is. You know, that's so weird Yeah, so those are the things that I've sleep so far from across that I like and dislike about GNOME Now I asked up in a poll yesterday Whether or not you guys think that I would make it a whole week and my answer to the poll would be maybe I Can see myself leaving GNOME midway through if something pisses me off Because I can just see it I know myself very well to know where my patience level is and if something truly pisses me off that I can't fix or There's a show stopping bug. I will just leave. I'm not gonna put any effort into actually, you know fixing it It's probably gonna be a problem but So far it's been okay if I can fix the screen so that it will go to sleep after a certain amount of time I Will just be able to stick on GNOME probably just fine If I can't fix that I can see myself leaving because of that because I don't like leaving my monitors on all day long My computer can stay on because it acts as a sample SAMBA server for the rest of the house But I don't like leaving the monitors on because these are all cheapo monitors I really don't want them to burn out before their time So I Don't know so I guess what I can do now is just we'll go go back to the keyboard thing and work on some keyboard shortcuts That's what I'm gonna do next Let's see here. I don't need to do any of this stuff Yeah Turn on screen keyboard. I don't need that screen reader. Don't need that turn zoom on or off zoom in zoom out Don't need that that can say the same I guess. Okay, so launchers homefolder Let's make this like super H. Why not? So if I open up super H, what's that going to do? That's gonna open up I'm pretty sure that just opened up Nemo, which is you know, that's cool. I wanted Nemo to be my default I didn't even set it that way. I don't need a calculator or an email client key binding. I Don't need to help browser this is gonna be super w and Search should be I guess super s These are gonna fuck with my mind when I go back to DWM Wait a minute now search be something different super like F1 I guess and Then settings can be super s Okay, so that takes care of launchers navigation Hide all normal windows. I don't I'm never gonna need really need that Move works move to workspace on the left Super page up. What does that do? Okay, so that just moves to a different workspace. I was like, I was like, what the fuck? Where did all my shit go? All right, here we go. I'm back So I don't know what I'm doing I'm never gonna use those. I'm just gonna use the regular mod keys that I set up Let's see here. So I don't need to do any of those Here on them when Mac now art center. Are you using actual Mac or did you install Linux on it? Because if you move to Macintosh, we're gonna have to have a talk to you Thank goodness Okay, so let's say move window to monitor one monitor to the right I'm never gonna use those. I'm just gonna drag shit Move window to last workspace move window to workspace one So this should be super shift one and this should be super shift to Oops, no, no, no women. What the fuck? Super shift three It comes up as the so did that actually work So if I move this is super shift Three, yeah, that actually did work, but it shows and so saving three. It just says pound sign. So workspace one super shift one two three Yeah, I've turned off suspension completely a mod Change all settings brightness lock turn off screen when it Hold on a second. What now? Okay, close this. I'll come back. So Settings brightness is that even a thing? I mean displays Settings brightness brightness and lock screen. Is it a thing? Another thing Why isn't this shit alphabetical order? Hey, come on Yeah, that's not a thing. I was gonna be under here. Okay And lock turn screen off from active. I don't have that set screen lock Yeah, see like I have it already set as one automatic screen lock automatic screen lock delay turn screen off Maybe I this reason why it turns screen turns off. Okay. That's what I wanted to do Yeah, I understood analytic mind why it does that it's just weird Because that's not the way I think of it. I when I When I think of that, I mean I think about it as super shift one not super shift exclamation point It's just weird. Close this for a minute. All right, go back here and navigation this year Get that done switch application and super tap and stay there switch to some controls I don't know what that means What is control tab actually do and that as far as I know it actually does nothing Okay Switch to some controls directly super alt. I mean, I was doing that wrong troll tab. Oh That's all it does. Okay What's the difference between that and super tap? That's only said this the system six. Okay, that's a little weird XFC is great. Oh Like XFC a lot. It's one of my favorites. I switched to last workspace super end is fine. I Switch windows. I don't need that switch windows directly Wish it did a better job like explaining what this stuff means like switch windows directly Compared to switch windows. What I mean, what does the directly do all that does is cycle through stuff? Okay Switch windows of an app directly switch windows of an application. Okay, I'm essentially all that stuff the same Not gonna use it screenshots Let's see what I would I'd like to do is record a screencast now save a screenshot of an area to clipboard So what I'd like this to be is Control S That's what I usually do. So if I do that now That's cool. I like I'd rather have I wish I gave you the option just to use flamishot because that'd be cool I know you could I could set that up manually, but It's been a long day. Let's see here. None of those also need to be changed Sound and media so Still a keyboard for eject I'm assuming that would I wonder what that would do now launch media player Microphone mute unmute next track pause Most of the stuff I'd use it here would be for would be an NCM PCPP or whatever it's called All right system Lock screen. I don't want to try that now It'd be cool if there was a keyboard shortcut to blank screen Show all applications which is super a Okay, super a I remember that one Let's see here log out. I don't want to try that now any horrible Open the application menu. What's the difference between what I just did super a and Super f10. Oh Okay, so that's an application menu. I didn't even know that I wouldn't even know that was there What is the settings for the setting system settings? Nothing Okay, it's just switches between these two things. All right Let's see here I show notifications less so super v. That's just gonna be that Show the overview is disabled show the run command. Okay, I didn't even know that existed. Okay. What about? Changing the Keybinding to Open up your terminal Is that always gonna be Shift super space switch to previous input source Okay, I don't want to do that windows Close windows hide window Lower window below other windows maximize windows minimize window move window Raise window restore window resize window toggle full screen toggle maximization state Views split on left. So That's kind of cool. I don't know that I'd never use it, but that's kind of cool Okay, so there was that and then the last one was custom So I guess we're going to do terminal command What do you have to enter here so slash bin slash all acrid II maybe Super enter So if I do super enter now, yeah, that's that works awesome. Cool. How many extensions have I installed not a single one? Yeah, I did change. Hey, hi DT. How you doing? I did change the file manager. I'm using Nemo It's my fave. I'm sure to push those changes upstream. Yeah So there's the key bindings that's done as Well as well as is done as it needs to be I guess it's still gonna mess with my brain My so the biggest problem I have In my brain around this is that the super key does so much And you can't change it. It's can't seem to change it They also it brings up this for you. Plus, you know, it's the modifier key for so much other stuff that I'm using So it's kind of overdone quite a bit But we'll see Honestly, the coolest one I found so far was this one here That's cool It's not necessarily. I don't know if it's useful or not, but it's cool that exists All right, let's let's go ahead now and Do some search and cool gtk themes Right now I'm using Dracula, but I'm not gonna go with Dracula this time Orchis Yeah, Yaru colors with So that's Yaru, but with different colors Hmm white sir It's really white Ultimate dark nope Vimix has been around for oh my god I remember using Vimix when I first started using Linux in budgie It's always looked so cool and the funny thing is I never could get working like the screenshot Bandit, I have a feeling that was early days That's just a lot of gray Uh ant themes I've tried those before before as well. Those are kind of Dracula like Flat remix that's basically arc like the arc theme Uh paper That's kind of cool Popo s theme Sweet That's the one that tech hut just did a video on Because I remember because nobody can pronounce that name See here material black frost. That's Really dark Abity that's well even darker. Okay And that's solar eyes. There's actually a solar eyes. She decayed them because of course there is Um, that's the one color scheme. I've just never had any care for at all It's kind of ugly for me Uh cloudy map Nordic Nord is just so blue Juno that's Looks almost identically identical to what I have Kind of Only the buttons are on the other side And it's showing Nautilus, but still That's basically that's not I mean let's put some effort into it Well, there is another thing that I wanted to say that is dumb when you when you When you minimize something instead of it the animation going down like into the dock It goes up into the activities word up here. It's I mean That's not I mean that's really weird. It just feels weird to me. It should go down here word. I mean the activities is down So it shouldn't go up to the word. It's just I don't know. It's weird All right, there was nothing there that really caught my eye Um, I really don't want to go with anything. It's too Dracula like because I already have a Dracula theme window manager done so uh Most of these are kind Like I could be totally cliche and just do a mac theme Yeah, solar rise is not the greatest Make my own gtk theme. I've you know, I've never made a gtk theme on my own before I'd have to do some research on how to do it All right, let's see Like I said nothing really here really caught my eye. So we're gonna go to search for something different. Come on I mean, we could just go to Get on look and take a look see here. I guess the one problem I don't know if they do it because they want page views or whatever But wouldn't it be much better if they could just put a picture of the theme on this front page So we already looked at sweet Maya or whatever it's called it. That's going to be the um Manjaro theme Aurora Nuevo What does this look like also I see genome look is still just as slow as it always was That's kind of cool I'm not big on what on bright themes, but That's not cool. That's not bad um Let's see here ultimate dark. We looked at that. That's just really dark egg genome theme Or just that was at the top of the other list cloudy that was on the other list Uh New sir gtk thing this is gonna have something to do with Mac I'm gonna call it loads that loads like I'm on dsl or dial up. That's ridiculous They make content delivery networks even ones that you can use for free You should definitely take a look at that Uh, let's see krypton. I wonder what that looks like. It's probably purple again Uh another dark theme really dark Uh, let's see ventra ventra. Why does it have a windows logo? Oh, that's the reason why it has a windows logo Okay Then that's that would be a good reason why it would have a windows logo because it looks like windows Okay, I'm gonna go back. We're not gonna use that one A kimmy Not really. I'm not feeling that one That i'm using open susan this right here is arco. I have open susan on my hard drive The problem is I can't get obs to work on open susan right now for whatever reason. It's not recording The screen it shows that it's recording the screen like it shows up in the preview But when you hit record and then after you're done recording you go back and look at it All it record was the audio. It's the dumbest thing I'm missing a dependency somewhere I haven't I'll be honest. I have not spent a lot of time looking into it Oh avion avionics theme That looks like it came out of a tv show that's trying to look techie techie Okay Like a csi Big theme so that's gonna be another mac theme windows 11 borealis ubuntu fluent that's gonna be Another windows 11 theme nordic has to be from nord Court samsung what the fuck What even uh, oh, it looks like dex That's what that is That's supposed to look like dex Oh, man. Nobody nobody used dex If that's even what that was called. That was the the samsung thing where you plugged your phone in you got a like a desktop that was Somewhat based on linux that nobody ever used Midnight, that's gonna be really really dark Loading loading loading That's just ridiculous Now I know why they don't put the images on the front page because the imagine a whole page where they had to go through and load Those images like one after another oh man It'd take 10 minutes for the whole page to load Oh I know what ant looks like Wow, I have not been And we looked at juno. What was it juno just looked like Uh dracula They even use the dracula icon themes sunrise Wow, that looks like a worse version of attawaita That is Some people should not design themes. That's that's that's horrible Those colors don't do it together at all and it's using the yaru icon theme Those don't go together friend. Okay sunset. I'm not looking at that if that's the same thing Um, mcmojave is gonna be another mac theme Oh well I'm on like page five or four or something. I'm gonna find anything that I'm all that impressed with Fluent gtk theme that's gonna be another windows theme shock and surprise I'll have to say it's kind of well done our Dark gtk I have to admit that that kind of looks cool. The Rounded buttons are going to mess around with my brain though I wonder how he ended up how he did the transparency thing Does that happen by via the theme or is that something you have to set with like a compositor or something? Honestly, I have no clue how he would go about doing that Like I know how to do it and I get a window manager, but State of gtk themes is just sag You know I'm just trying to undo the linux desktop. Yeah And the thing about the the kd themes is they're all in like You can tell the first-class citizens. They're in part in the Like they're in that the The operating system. They're in the desktop environment here. It's like a I don't know. There's no organization here You can tell it's third party installing it means you have to download it or use their pling store thing that nobody actually ever uses Yeah, okay like This is cool But I don't know I mean It looks like they did this one just for nautilus like they don't design the nautilus theme first and then Design everything else and that's why they show nautilus and every you know, uh screenshot because it's the part that looks the coolest Who knows how this would look like in a you know, any other app because you know, uh, let's see you got it. There's marwita os x That looks like the elementary os theme So does Okay, you know, they should just call that elementary os Honestly, it's been quite a while since I've actually gone through and raised kde Probably something I should do but I have uninstalled plasma for from my main system now because it had so many packages And all the k apps were just getting in the way Every time I needed to scroll through rofi and I had to scroll past all the k Applications that were installed on arco by default when you install plasma Yeah, that was always a pain in the butt Glass your originals g2k yellow Roll loading loading. Oh, that's That's that's That's horrible Yeah, that is the greatest thing I've ever seen I don't know whether which one and that's Oh man, that's so good And it's popular enough to be in like the top 60 And this is the same thing just with a different color. Ah, okay Obviously not those things that was page six. Good lord. I'm on page seven now and still oh and all those are gonna be exactly the same just with different colors Okay, all right Okay I think not I'm being very picky in my old age apparently Uh glassy that's gonna be another os x thing with a whole bunch of transparency. I guess marijuana Meruita peppermint that's good. That's just another element through us, but with a different accent color Fancy g2k theme. Well, it says it's fancy Well, I admit that's kind of fancy, but the rounded buttons. What's with the rounded buttons? All right This is just gonna be a different color of that. Yeah, all right. I don't know why I keep clicking on that By latest not by rating am I I guess it doesn't really matter That would explain why those were all grouped together. They would have been updated by the same time But even then I suppose I could go back to uh Rating here. All right So this is the top this one here is one of the top Let's see that's like That's like the old mac style I mean Mac makes pretty software, but I don't want a mac clone. Everybody does a mac clone Plus I'm not installing extensions as I'm going to try not to anyways Yaru colors mac mojave ultimate dark I've looked at all these skew o s that's Interesting, okay Not had luck Oh, wow, that's like really old school. Like it's like it takes at a weight to a whole different direction all right I don't like the one that tech cut did the other day This is pretty, but I don't like the mountains in the background Like and they'll file that I'm sure that'd be only a nautilus. I'm not going to use nautilus anyways, but Wow I clicked on this one before what was this? Oh, that was the one I said it wasn't too bad Really this Those don't really that gray doesn't really go together with the other colors So how's gonna I'm going it's going it's going like I'm still here I've clicked on Juno and I'll three times Matt, you know, it's just that's just Dracula All right, going back to page one. Let's come back up here. This is the top rated one. All right, you know, fine What uh, what do we got to download to get that done? What uh files that we have here? Red green gray orange pink purple yellow It'd be so nice if you could just download the whole thing They knew a very good job of the documentation on the oh the documentation's gonna be on here Where did the They don't have an actual link to their github page so they could just download all of them All right, let's see here Does that have a picture of all the colors then that this that's going to be blue blue Also blue Blue would be nice if they had a picture of all of them. Let me know. We're going to go with red Basically, I'm just picking this now because I needed to pick something Unless we're going to be here literally for ages just me going. Nope. Nope. Next. Next Let's see here. So is it a downloads? And let's see here open archive manager Stract. Stract. Done Close I could have done that in a terminal, but nah All right All right Of course and I didn't put it all in one O R C H I S And this and this and this and this And here Now I wonder if I'm going to be able to actually Okay, that's not the terminal that I wanted, but it will work So if we just do it all us here and just see your c he sudo Cp Dash R Star slash user share Themes I messed up my password Uh-huh. I did it again. It's really hard to type of password when there's a microphone in your face Turns out How you doing bruce Maglen's here. How you doing maglen? pushing us here. Hello Jake at linux here. Hello How y'all doing? I'm sure I've missed a lot of people. I have not been doing a very good job of keeping up with chat I do apologize for that, but We just uh It is what it is All right, here we go appearance So let's see if this actually I would do it when it appeared cool So let's see there's this and Here's this That looks like a flatter version of the dark theme of atta weight that doesn't it Fine Dark compact that's better Like compact and that's it Okay Well, I can't say I'm not underwhelmed But what are you gonna do? It's just a decade gtk theme. What did I expect the world? All right close this What I can't think about using now. Oh, that's that looks like the papyrus theme doesn't it? It is because it is the papyrus theme I have a whole bunch of these things installed because this arco arco comes with a ton of Stuff installed if you hit the right button during the install so we can actually go through and just use Something here That's kind of cool. It doesn't go That's the best part about using this thing that you literally go with with anything Yeah Another thing is like you're never going to see these icons anyways. I mean Not really The blue one looks better than the red We can try it out. It's not as if it's gonna hurt anything to redownload it Download blue Which one is the blue one? Is that just the regular? Like a default This icon's actually kind of work kind of worked. Uh, let's see here Let me just delete these and let's see close One thing this thing did bring with it is really really rounded corners Like they're more pronounced or at least it feels that way Guaranteed I mistyped it again. Yeah. All right, you know, let's see here Did I close tweaks? I did. All right, so let's see with the regular Orchis dark Yep, there's the blue Yeah, I guess that looks better Yeah, I don't know if I'll ever use Roe for your D menu here and get on it I'm trying to for the as close to the pure gunon experiences I can without you know having to deal with this stock theming That's better All right, let's go. I don't know I guess we're gonna look for a dark wallpaper There's a little bit more of a green tinge to it the blue. Let's see here. Ah, TFL is here. I mean, how you doing? You made it to a stream You change your shelf it you have to do something in order to change the shelf theme, right? like you have to uh Enable something like I like I don't remember It just as you got into bed. Yeah My 730 streaming time is not good for a lot of people who live, you know Anywhere else but here So I do apologize for that but I will try to uh do some earlier ones I'm not good at it. Usually this is the best time for me to stream I'm going yeah I'm hoping to make it a whole week Okay, so you have to enable user theme user themes I guess I'm gonna have to what so is that what I'm gonna have to do I'm in 40 like this is this is gonna afford us 40. Something I like this layout here. This is not bad Uh, I don't think I would I need it though It's better than the old gnomo for sure I think Am I actually going to log out and log back in again? I seem to remember that too that you could enable user themes in There's like a checkbox or something, right? Unfortunately going 41 is not in the arch repos yet I don't know why and I'm out of water I think I was gonna run out of water I'll mess around with the User theme later because it looks like I'm gonna have to log out and log back in in order to do that I really don't want to install it at any extensions at all and trying I know that if I go through and install extensions and changes so that there's a dock at the bottom and do all the Stuff that I can do with extensions that people there will be some people out there They'll say well, you didn't really live in gnom. You lived in whatever you made it You didn't Live in the way that the gnom people wanted you to live in their desktop environment and whatever So I'm gonna try to do as much as I can and just stock gnom. I know I've changed the theme But I was never look Okay, this is the stock gnom theme if I can go all the way up here And This one here That is the most fugly theme ever. Okay, it just is Just so bad So anyways, yeah, I'm not I had to change the theme anyways Also, like how it messed with my user my It does not like user chrome Can you see that it has a rounded corner on this side and a squared off on this side? It doesn't like user chrome Do you like add a wait till terminal for life? Really? You like One of few people that I've known that actually like it I don't think many people use stock gnom either But I know that there's gonna be those people out there that are gonna say that and I just didn't want to hear about it It's easier this way that way I can Bitch about gnom And have a let it stand on I guess Oh, let's see. How long have I been streaming? streaming for Hours hour nine minutes or so All right, I probably go for a little while longer. I guess Yeah, the dark version of add a wait is actually not bad. That's I always switch to that but I can't stand the light one. It's bad. I don't know Maybe I'll live the first half of the week and just stock gnom and then after that I will go through and Play around with extensions Then at least I can say I've experienced doing that as well I suppose I didn't go through and finished the wallpaper thing. I can like this At least with the tweak tool thing you can go through and change the Wallpaper on both monitors separately because by default, you can only if you change it here it changes on both wallpaper wolf monitors Which sucks that that icon is huge compared to the rest of them Weird I wonder why that one ab one icon is just so much bigger. Oh, I'd love to see tfl use sway I see what he thinks about it, but I think he's gonna say it's just like i3 but with wayland The only thing different would be the bar and he'd get rid of the bar. Oh, you're using unity lamar Unity was good For a while It's kind of what made a bone too unique and now they just are another you know, I'm just just draw, you know Which is you know disappointing Even if they'd chosen plasma, I would have made them stand out a little bit better That flying to the top thing really bothers me. I was in sway for a little while, but I couldn't get obs to work So that's the reason why I never I've never done a video on it according to the guys on the ubuntu podcast they've Canonical has abandoned unity before and has retaken it up like three or four times So it would it'd be kind of cool to see or interesting to see if they kind of go back to that someday I remember daily driven the alignment desktop, but I use matcha or marcha or matcha Uh, the bodilithnix one for a little while It's an interesting experience. I don't know that I could ever live in it, you know at all But then I didn't really give it a like a daily driver try I don't know if I could live without genom tweaks. I'm good here. I think I can I think I could I can get through This whole week without the extensions I don't think I could do it without tweaks because I'd want to change the theme Because remember you can't even go to a dark theme without tweaks You have to have genom tweaks installed in order to at least in Standard genom you have to have tweaks in order to go to a dark theme There's no other option So you can't go to add a what the dark. I mean you could use g settings. I mean that'd be That's basically genom tweaks, but in the terminal But again, that'd be Living outside of genom's expectations for you Tried to daily driving plan nine. Uh, no, I'm not tyler. Thanks That boy crazy, he'll literally do anything for a dollar You ask tyler what he'll do for a Klondike bar and he'll he'll install plan nine for you I'm not crazy Ubuntu unity remix the dev is 14 years old. Oh, is the unity guy? Is that the same guy who is doing Ubuntu web? I if that's if that's the same dev Uh, I trashed Ubuntu web when I first did the start of this channel I felt so bad afterwards because I realized the key. It's just a kid. I was like, what? I was so negative in the in the video and then afterwards I was like, oh, this guy's only 14 or years old So mean You literally go for a Klondike bar right now I haven't had a Klondike barn ages and ages and ages Next-disk review calculate the next so no um, my next-disk review Our minus-disk distro stuff is going to be I'm going to be doing a top five list for Uh windows 11 users who want to switch to linux. That's going to be coming out on tuesday And then after that I have another what the fuck episode coming out So that should be fun. Uh, I have the intro for it planned out pretty well Whether or not I can do it technologically and like do do the editing properly. I don't know yet. Let's see I can't imagine being 14 years old coming up with my own distro like I don't know much y'all but At 14 years old, I was not I was not looking at uh, you know Making my own distro. I was you know doing other things. We granted when I was 14 Yes, linux was around obviously but I had no clue what it was. I mean, I wasn't Computers when I when I was around 14 were still a fairly New thing here You know to be a if you See when I was 14, I would have been I would have just gotten my first home computer Like just like that year Well, no, not even it would have been the next year after I turned 14. So um And like mine you just completed 24 hours of a fast. Well, um Congratulations, uh, I have a skittle I couldn't fast for 24 hours as you can tell I um See the 12 or 4 I yeah, I know one of them was young And tfl you and you've barely changed You're you're still younger than me, bro So we talked a little bit about the efl rewrite for solace on the podcast a couple days ago But mostly during that we just bitched about gnom and gtk Uh Personally now, I gotta remember I'm not a developer So I don't think that they're going to be successful with their rewrite I think that they'll find that they have they're just the efl just isn't as broad For what they want to do As gtk is so I think that eventually they'll change the thing about solace and the solace Project has always been like this is they're they've been a little bit Flaky on their decisions like at one point they were switching to cute like They're going to 11 or their budgie 11 was going to be a cute based Desktop environment and they're still not on budgie 11. They just continue to press it out because they keep changing their mind So it wouldn't be surprising to me at all if they end up changing their mind again I hope they don't because It'd be interesting to see because there's not a lot of desktops out there In fact, I think there's only like one that's based on Or at least on linux that is based on the enlightenment frameworks I can't think like I know there's a a few watch based os is out there that are based on efl Uh, like I think tizen was based on efl But other than matcha Or how the however however you pronounce it. I don't know that there's another one other than enlightenment itself, obviously And can you think of a I mean, there's only like one or two distros out there That ship with enlightenment or an enlightenment based distro How you doing ben? Bruce's back Just in time for for me to start wrapping this up. Oh, I can probably actually go here so that you can actually see me I forgot to change the scene Uh, so did I make ganam good? No, of course not. Alpha is never gonna happen I made ganam look prettier. That's about all I did I think it's about all you can do even with tweaks Without diving into extensions Matt, what about adding some of the that lo-fi music from the ro-fi Beat stream onto youtube like during a stream I think that if I had music playing in the background, I'd get distracted Because usually when I listen to music I Bop along to the music Oh man Excuse me It has been long day so Let's see here just for those of you here Uh, uh, the rest of the week. I've already gone over like the first three days Tomorrow's gonna be a rice and video then I'm going to be doing the windows one and then a what the fuck episode Thursday We'll be streaming the podcast and I'll have another video. I'm not sure what yet um So the second half of the week is a little bit more open than the first half um So we'll see how that goes I'm really looking forward to that. What the fuck episode because that that's gonna be a lot of fun to record We'll see how that goes Should be fun. Like I said, it should be fun Anyways, I'm gonna wrap this up here. I've been going now for an hour and 24. That's about Close to where I usually go about an hour and a half is where I can go, especially once I run out of water So I'm done. I will uh, oh the other thing I'll be making is at the end of the week I'll make a video on gnomes. So I will make a week about my weekend in gnomes And that should that should also be entertaining because I'm sure I'm going by that time I'm going to be have a lot of stuff that I can bitch about so It'd be interesting What I'm going to try I'm going to try in that video to find at least five things that I like I'm going to start off positive because not everything here is bad I will put that out there right now. Not everything is bad about gnomes. There's a lot of stuff that I don't like but Not everything is bad. So I want to make sure that I do a little bit positively in that video Anyway, so that will come up at the end of the week. So I am done for tonight.
