Re: May 2013 Screenshots

Still keeping it simple on the desktop. Ditched urxvt for termite (and ditched Ubuntu Mono for PragmataPro, which is amazing, even at these small sizes), and changed up the conky config (which also includes weather now! Seems to be anywhere from 2 to 5 degrees off, and tends to be give-or-take a half hour or so on conditions, but it works.)

I've still been too busy+lazy to bother with my site and pushing anything to my own Git or even github, so if you're curious about any configs or whatever, feel free to ask.

Currently running Arch on a Samsung Chromebook Pro (dual booted with ChromeOS), and various VPSes and Docker containers.

Maybe you find it creepy due to some subconscious remembrance of 'the shining'?

ps, there's a whole moon landing conspiracy theory which goes along with this pattern.

Re: May 2013 Screenshots

Nine months ago, I first touched DWM and all alike applications, as sxiv. It was also my introduction to C and everything programming. I quit using sxiv since I felt it was "too minimal" and because I could not use Xft fonts that I could otherwise use everywhere. Its maintainer (understandably) said he would not incorporate Xft into sxiv.

Now, nine months later, I took up sxiv again and was able to implement it myself. I feel rather proud It's still rudimentary, and some parts still aren't working, but it opens and renders just fine:

Thanks.

What you see are 4 conkys (top info bar, top right weather, bottom left messages.log, bottom right torrent info) that use various custom scripts. Bottom panel is bmpanel2, WM is Openbox with simple border-only theme, terminal is urxvt, the shadow and transparency are provided by Compton.

I'm interested, what is the actual content of the bottom left messages.log? While I not new to linux, Ubuntu didn't really teach me much about where to fetch what kind of information. How do you retrieve that information?

Change: I started using  status-bar info written in C (before bash). Changed some colors and wallpaper. Configs are on my github but there may be some outdated stuff lying around, so feel free to ask for anything.
