The best one-man distro ever made!


Lookin fer a new #distro but don't wanna choose between #KDE, #GNOME, or some obscure #WM the arch kids are into this week? Maybe you've heard some old greybeards grumblin about #enlightenment but figured it was just some hippy thing. What if there was an easy way to get yer hands on the tried and true, real enlightenment window manager, #e16, without all that configuratin bidniss? If yer lookin for a well polished #debian with a UI your friends prolly don't have, maybe take this Elive thing nobody's talkin bout fer a spin.

Much like any good magic trick, the more you know about what's been tweaked and streamlined behind the scenes, the more you can appreciate all that's gone into the making of this distro. This has been a one-man project from before the time I learned of it sometime early 2005 in the #e channel on freenode. Much though and dedication has gone into the design of each release since then.

Go check it out, it's free if you don't wanna help with production.

Did Mike and Karen Pence Use IVF?


The former second couple have openly discussed a nearly six-year period of infertility that included multiple fertilization procedures.

This Rats Search app is amazing github.com/DEgITx/rats-search - it lets you search on the Bittorrent network and download from there. No website needed. Unfortunately the interface really looks like some rats on a boat did it...

Does anyone else know a similar application? I'd like to even include it into TROMjaro if the Interface does not suck like this one does....

To be fair, designing good UI is hard.... It's an entirely different skill from programming.

yeah, it's true. Usually to count any species you need a lot of people. And even if there is a funding for some researches it's never so large that it can include every person who are participating. That's why they all rely on a group of volunteers. Which is great, because people are motivated by the science, nature, animals and many other reasons. They really want to do it. And in turn it's very interesting and fun. That's why I try to show, that's its quite cool thing to do. And every one can do it too !

Yeah it looks quite fun to be honest :blobcatgiggle: I hope you inspire more people to do these things through your videos! 🙂

"Campaigners say Ineos project in Antwerp will turbocharge plastic production on a scale not seen before in Europe"

So yeah...what a timing....what can you say...

What fuckers.. geez. And all of that together with an effort of EU to reduce usage of single-used plastics. Yeah, when big buck is in the game, an urge for profits is unstoppable..

Although I don't use Plasma, I use XFCE with TROMjaro, I congratulate KDE for this release and the work they've done over the years. XFCE, KDE, and the like, are not competitors, but diversity in choices. That's how we should operate as a society, do not compete, but collaborate and create diversity. So I like to use XFCE, but others prefer KDE, and some others Gnome, and so forth. Nice! We are all happy! #opensource #foss #kde #plasma #linux


Plasma 6.0 has been released. Check out the new overview, improved colour management, a cleaner theme, more effects, better overall performance, and much more.

Non taken! Was not my intention of course to insult you or anyone, rather than show an agreement with my good friend. I am actually very happy to see that women are also using #Linux / #foss ☺️

The competition to FLOSS desktop projects will always be proprietary desktop providers. The creators of Windows and macOS, who seek to abuse users, lock them inside walled gardens and pollute their environment with forced hardware upgrades and deliberately faulty and inefficient software.

Even as a long time Plasma user, I cannot but admire #XFCE and its developers who strive to pack all those features into the lightest desktop possible.
