My Progress with openSUSE So Far
I didn’t want to leave people hanging too long on this, so I decided to post an update with how I’ve been using openSUSE thus far. My one-month challenge is almost over, although I have been enjoying the distro for the most part this time around, and I have been taking notes over the passing…

Go Over 100% Volume in GNOME with One Terminal Command
This may be my shortest post for my Linux-related quick tips, as I was searching around for this information online for my openSUSE 30-Day challenge. In short: I wanted to know how to go beyond 100% volume on my GNOME setup, but had forgotten what I did to achieve this on both my Arch and…

Why I Don’t Distro Hop
This is going to be a much shorter post than I normally do, but I was originally planning a longer, very different post from this. As regular readers of the site know, I’m a Linux user. At home on my desktop, I run Arch Linux. On the go with my personal workstation, a ThinkPad laptop,…

Turning GNOME Into a Tiling Window Manager
I’ve made it rather well-known that I’m a big fan of the Awesome window manager on Linux. I still use it regularly on my Arch system, but what about my Fedora workstation? While I do have Awesome installed on Fedora, I’ve found myself using it less and less. It has nothing to do with my…

Cool-Retro-Term Lives Up to Its Name

Start LibreOffice with a Different GTK Theme
I, like many other Linux users, like using LibreOffice. The free, open-source Microsoft Office alternative hardly needs an introduction, and I personally like to use LibreOffice Calc frequently, especially during the summer. Like many more Linux users, I also like using a dark theme on my system. I like having my file explorer (I’m using…

How to Have “vim” Open Neovim or LunarVim
Here’s a quick post from me today. I recently switched to Neovim through the installation of LunarVim. I really like the feel of it a whole lot, and as an Awesome WM user, I can appreciate how the config is written in Lua. Besides that, I know that the usual command to enter Neovim is…

Get Goodies from Other Distros with the AUR and Github
It’s no secret that I love Arch Linux. Despite how I run Fedora on my ThinkPad for work, I have been using Arch regularly since 2020 on my desktop. I can’t see myself ever switching, although I would be lying if I said the occasional urge to distro hop didn’t come up sometimes. Ultimately, the…

Switching from spotify-tui to spotify-player.
I last wrote about spotify-tui a short while back. This was back when I wrote about how I made a Nord skin for it that doesn’t obscure the play time in the progress bar. As for the player itself, I didn’t really discuss it in much detail. Friendship Ended with spotify-tui… It should soon become…
