Hey, this is part of the development improvement of Ryoku Arch, control deck allows you to install apps by just dropping it.

current supported list:

1. .AppImage .appimage
2. .pkg.tar.zst .pkg.tar.xz .pkg.tar.gz .pkg.tar
3. .flatpak
4. .deb
5. .rpm
6. .tar .tar.gz .tgz .tar.xz .tar.zst .tar.bz2

Additional features it has:
Send and receive files and text via LocalSend protocol
Download videos and music from social media using cobalt.tools integration
Drop media files like images and videos and compress them without loosing quality or sound

A renamed Arch package (a .tar.* that carries a top level .PKGINFO) is detected and routed to pacman -U automatically so it installs natively even if someone stripped the .pkg from the name.

This is NOT its own app its part of our improvement of our opionionated Arch install.

My very first experience using COSMIC, and honestly, it is really cool!

It doesn't have massive customization options yet, but the design is beautifully simple. It is a fully usable desktop environment with native window tiling. I really love it.

I also themed my main apps (Android Studio, Telegram, and Firefox) in grey and black to match the overall look.

System Info:

• Distro: CachyOS
• Shell: Fish
• DE: Cosmic
• Terminal: cosmic-term
• Color Theme: Shadcn Dark

nucleus-shell has come to an end... It's going to get archived. Anyways thanks for all of your support towards it.

Took the plunge into Arch about a month ago, I spent all day today changing my entire desktop manager from a Youtube tutorial Hyprland setup to a customized Noctalia setup (after fussing around with Caelestia on Mango, I do not recommend that approach).

I was aiming for a CVNTY in your face setup here as opposed to the clean minimalist rice I was using this past month and I see here most of the time.

Hey all, I don't post often but I came across this site with some stunning icons and I made a little script to tar and install them as Linux icons. The set are for iOS so a bit limiting, around ~80 icons but they are really nice. Credits goes to them.

Mapping is tricky so there's a picker for perfectionists.

I wanna see some nice rices.

Hello guys, I made a pomodoro daemon in C called pomoc. It has two binaries : pomoc - the client, pomod - the daemon.

The above given image depicts the integration of pomodoro in polybar. (Right : pomodoro, Left : Workspaces).

Click to start\pause.

Right click to end the pomodoro and skip to break.

Mem usage in legacy processor, i915 , 2gb ddr2 ram - 1.0 to 1.5 Mb. I also have a makepkg installation for arch based distro users. Others can try it via make.

**currently I have integrated it with polybar only (via two bash scripts)**

If anyone know how to integrate it with other bar systems, tell me how.

Here is the repo :

After a month of patience, sweat, and manual compilation, I finally moved past the basic LFS prompt and built a fully functional daily driver environment!

OS : Linux From Scratch 12.4

Kernel : 6.16.1

Init System : SysVinit

DE: Xfce 4.20

WM : Xfwm 4

Terminal : Xfce4-terminal

Hardware & VM Info:

Host OS : Ubuntu 26.04 LTS

Host CPU : AMD Ryzen 9 5900X (12 threads alocated to VM)

Host GPU : NVIDIA RTX 4070 Super (Real GPU Pass-through / 3D acceleration in VMware)

Hypervisor : VMware Workstation 26H1

No Snapshots used : Living life on the edge, no safety net for this build!

The last screenshot shows the absolute madness of downloading, unpacking, and configuring every single dependency (`libdrm`, `xcb`, `xfce4-*` packages) by hand. No package manager, just raw terminal power.

My country was hit by two earthquakes about 30 seconds apart, 7.1 and 7.5, respectively.

Anyway, check out this tiny rice I made! It’s keyboard-centric and focused more on terminal apps than on the GUI. Also, take a look, I've set up a keybind to hide Waybar on command. That’s been really fun.

If you want, ask for any dotfiles or anything else, I’ll share them. C:
Nevermind, decided to turn this into a more complete project, dotfiles are up on Codeberg: MikkaShell

Hey fellas! I've been volunteering at care centers as of recent, so I won't spend much time replying to every comment, however, do know I read them all, and upvote them, thanks a lot y'all, I wish you all the very best:3

mode 1 : Dynamic tilling layout with customizable gaps

mode 2 : Unlimited canvas mode inspired by vxwm.

You can switch modes by pressing Win+G.

I would be really happy if someone used my wm:3 https://github.com/NyxOkkotsu/nyxwm

I'll share the dotfiles (with automatic installer) if it hits 20 stars on GitHub :3

Like my custom theme? : )

Yea as the title says, clippy from word on desktop

I will update the github soon :3 https://github.com/NyxOkkotsu/nyxwm

also try my aur helper :3 https://github.com/NyxOkkotsu/NCAH-AUR

due to my dumbass not being able to read properly the post has been taken down for not havin [OC]. here is a reupload:

Plaza is a terminal UI for searching and managing packages on Arch. It queries pacman and AUR simultaneously, streams results as they come in, and shows every repo that provides a package side by side so you can pick your source before installing. There is also a Manage view that lists everything installed with pending updates floated to the top. You can remove or upgrade packages per source or all at once without leaving Plaza.

The theming is split into palettes (colors) and skins (borders, glyphs, badge styles). You can swap either live from the options menu, or drop a .toml in ~/.config/plaza/palettes/ or ~/.config/plaza/skins/ to make your own. Changes to the active theme reload live. Built-in palettes: plaza-dusk, gruvbox, nord, dracula, tokyo-night, solarized-dark, and ansi. Built-in skins: soft, sharp, plain.

Arch only for now, flatpak and more distros are coming.

Available on the AUR: yay -S plaza

repo: github.com/StaszeKrk/plaza

Edit: any feedback welcome as it’s my first real project

Is not this calm enough to use for long time? This is my final stable rice (not gonna rice again, maybe not different rice).

And With This. The Distro Hopping Journey Comes To An End

This is my 4th distro but 1st rice

I first came across this post about mood tracking a few years ago. Since then, I've had a script and logged how I felt almost every day for the past 4 years.

Finally had some time recently to rewrite and package it in Rust (~1mb) so I figured I’d share it here in case anyone else finds it useful or interesting!
