Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
    • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
    • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
    •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

    That's why you want to add blur. I also don't understand unblurred transparent terminals.

    Or, this might blow off the minds of some people, not using transparency.

    I just boot straight into the terminal. No desktop, just the void staring at me full of possibilities.

    [–] Ziglin@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

    Yup and then I have a startup script that asks me if I'd like a GUI. Saved me setting up a display manager and it's basically the same amount of effort when logging in.

    To read thru documentation.

    [–] KammicRelief@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

    I have my focused window opaque, the rest transparent+blur.

    [–] sntx@lemm.ee 1 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

    What's the difference between opaque and transparent+blur?

    [–] Hoimo@ani.social 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

    The difference between a wall and frosted glass.

    [–] KammicRelief@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

    Yeah, that. Opaque means no transparency. Easier to read/work, or see a picture/video without background stuff mixing in with it. But for my non-focused windows, I'm not actively working on those, so rice it up, transparency all the way! (but still add blur to those, just so I can read them if I need to....)

    [–] festnt 1 points 2 weeks ago

    opaque is not transparent and has no blur

    transparent+blur has transparency and no blur

    hope i helped

    Unblurred transparent terminals

    Hi I might be your worst nightmare and this comment explains how I do it

    I'm not sure why I prefer this, but I really like the "darkened background" rather than "blurred background" effect
