The GNOME project is ran like a hobby. Not a hobby like "software development" but a hobby like "collect user complaints and snarky replies to users".
As much as people who don’t know the environment well bitch about macOS, Gnome has always been far more hostile to customization and discoverability.

It is the poster child of “Love how the creators decided to set it up, or find it absolutely inscrutable and unusable” in the history of software.
 
if you don't like Openbox, chances are you like suckin' cocks, nigga.
only ever swapped from it to XFCE after my gtk2-based panel crapped out on me with theming with the latest guix update. cozy on XFCE now, and so long as nothing else comfier or more useful comes around, I plan to stay on it until the day I die
 
Next I have to figure out why GwenView krashes whenever I try closing it.
Post a stacktrace or link to a bug report with a stacktrace maybe (coredumpctl dump /usr/bin/gwenview or coredumpctl gdb gwenview and enter thread apply all bt full if you didn't save one).

Sounds like some race condition during cleanup from your other post. You could test KDE's LLM acceptance by feeding the stacktrace to claude if you have tokens to burn (opus/fable on high+ should just start pulling code and likely figure it out on its own, otherwise it might need some instructions for what to do).
 
Apparently, a solo dev debpalash just open-sourced a free replacement for ElevenLabs that runs entirely on your own machine. It's called VoiceStudio.

It lets you:
→ Clone a voice from a clean reference clip
→ Dub any video into 646 languages
→ Generate audiobooks, dictation, transcription
→ Choose from 14 TTS engines instead of one

ElevenLabs supports 32 languages. this does 646. Also, no per-character charges. no usage limits. no audio ever leaves your computer.

I love me local AI tools. I actually found this the other night but had other things going on so I never looked hard into it.

Let a thousand Jim Metokurs blossom, and with it... let the darkness grow.

Also: You played with this yet? Any thoughts? I'll be installing it later but it'll probably be a while before I can properly evaluate it's capabilities.
 
At the moment, according to their site, there is a "pro version" which requires work email & such, but I can't tell what it does better than the Open Source version. Hell, the dev is apparently running on UsePaid donations, but it's built in such a way that I don't know even the dev himself knows he's running on those donations. IDK why he even has those if he already has a Ko-Fi.

I hope it doesn't have any filters tho, may as well kill Eleven just through that alone.

Sadly haven't gotten the chance yet (my PC is acting up). I will probably try in the future.
 
We have solutions for this.

Rofi/drun - You press Super+Space to have a MacOS style bar pop-up and you can do anything with it that you'd be able to on MacOS. You can use .desktop files to act as shortcuts for binaries and other applications or even scripts.

Noctalia - Is an all-in-one solution for notifications, sound, calendar, statistics and all other forms of startmenu stuff. It also comes with a quicklauncher if you're not fond of using Rofi.
Bloat.
Having to access your file system outside of a UI sucks, anyone who says otherwise is a faggot poser
Judging from the software you recommend, YOU are the poser.
DWM>>>>
 
anything more than pencil and paper is bloat
I think this joke is a little worn out now.
I am being genuine in my statements. DWM really is superior to the bloated garbage that most people use. The only problem I have with it is recompiling for a configuration change, but I don't play with my configuration that often so it's not something that bothers me greatly.
 
Obviously anything X11-based will be much better but let's not act like that'll stick around for long. Whether you like it or not, Wayland will become the standard and Hyprland will be your next best option for TWM's. And just like with everything nowadays, you'll have to debloat it first, but it's not like you can't disable all the stock bells and whistles it comes with to turn it into a more classic dwm/i3-like experience, right?
 
The standard where, exactly?
If it becomes a standard in loonix, I don't care, because I don't use loonix.
Which BSD? Open is fun but makes my shitbox's fans howl like crazy.

Nuh uh nigga so long as it compiles, I VILL run i3. Sway + Guile Swayer's pretty cool too, would be cooler if it wasn't rancid Drew "Lolicon/Pedophile" De Vaultware and tied to the shitheap that is wlroots.
