For those asking, I found the wallpaper at wallhaven.cc. After some searching, was able to find a link…

My starting point was an old set of JaKoolit dot files. I think the latest can be had here.

Maybe I’ll post the style.css later if it’s not too big…

Well, here’s the Waybar config (some things are commented out as I’m endlessly tweaking it…)

{
//
// Reminder: The last statement in a module block cannot
// be commented out or waybar won’t launch.
//
“include”: “~/.config/hypr/waybar/modules”,
“layer”: “top”,
//“mode”: “dock”,
“exclusive”: true,
“passthrough”: false,
“position”: “top”,
“spacing”: 3,
“fixed-center”: true,
“ipc”: true,
“margin-left”: 0,
“margin-right”: 0,

“modules-left”: [
“custom/menu”,
“hyprland/workspaces”,
“hyprland/window”,
],

“modules-center”: [
“clock”,
//“custom/weather”,
“custom/task-phone”,
],

“modules-right”: [
“tray”,
//“network”,
“memory”,

“wireplumber”,
“pulseaudio#microphone”,

],
}

It’s borrows from "Matrial-Black-Cherry, Kora Grey Icons, and “Derp” for the Foot Terminal theme. Also, you can use hyprpicker to sample colors as needed from the wallpaper or wherever.

The thing next to the clock is my own module that launches Gnome-Endeavour task manager on a click and Valent (implementation of KDE Connect) on a right click.

Some of the other custom modules I originally got from JaKoolit but, I may have tweaked some of them a bit as I just kinda used him as a “startiing point”. (I’ve also completely hacked-up the way the clock module works).

Maybe he’ll be staying there? They could call it “Mar-a-Uh-Ohh”?

Probably wouldn’t want anything to do with a homeowner either…

Nah, it’s Genesis, she’s holding it upside down…

Seems to be working OK for me on FF with Ublock and Privacy Badger running.

I believe LMDE includes the proprietary stuff you might need and, as others have said, Debian 12 is starting to as well.

For a new user who just wants a good OS to start with, Pop_OS is a fine choice. A little surprised you had trouble with Mint identifying your WiFi card but, I see others have posted on it. Mint is typically my go-to recommendation for new Linux users.

Obligatory I suppose…

Holy crap, how depraved do you have to be for PornHub to block you?

As I understand it, so far, the courts aren’t disputing that Trump incited an insurrection, they’re disputing if the 14th Amendment applies to the office of the President.

Well, should a Liberal incite an insurrection against the United States, that precedent should be used against them.

Thanks for sharing…

I feel this one… This is why I flex some of my time to Sunday morning to work of the stuff the required focused concentration.
