TROPHY CASE

I wrote a run-or-raise script called brocket that should run on most X11 WMs. This is something I've been wanting in concept for years, and I'm finally capable enough myself to have made it! by teratomatain linux

I'm not sure what you mean by workspace? It is possible to switch to the virtual desktop that the window is on by using '-a', but it is not possible to switch to the activity (KDE thing) that the window is on.

What's your favorite burrito in the valley, and where can we get one? by Pizzaman99in phoenix

[–]teratomata 1 point2 points ago

It's still my favorite restaurant in the valley.

[–]teratomata[S] 2 points3 points ago

Yeah, it's something I've wanted ever since I moved to Linux. I finally got so fed up I coded this up a few months ago, and then had the time to fix it up this week. I then found a blog post from last month that outlines what I had in my original script. I also don't understand how Awesome is one of the few WMs with run-or-raise.

Ah yeah, that makes sense. Sometimes I take the desert for granted.

Does Apple contribute to the open source community? by puppyfartsin linux

[–]teratomata 0 points1 point ago

Uh, typo? I meant was, as in it was open sourced last decade.

Yeah, the old version of their OS was opensourced. Source

It would actually be more effective to get a humidifier - or what's called swamp cooling - if you live in a dry climate. The process of water going from liquid to gas absorbs a lot of heat - heat that is taken out of the air around it. Easy way to achieve this is to soak a bunch of shorts or other clothes and hang them around the house. Best place is probably somewhere in the second half of your corridor of cool.

Aside of heart at 5th and Garfield in downtown has an amazing choose-your-own fillings vegan burrito.

I created my first Arch package today called brocket. It's an application launch wrapper that checks if the app is already open and raises that window instead of starting a new instance. Thoughts? by teratomatain archlinux

[–]teratomata[S] 1 point2 points ago

Ok, I updated so that the default search is by window class, and a new option to use the old search method. Thanks for this.

Did not even think about that or know about the window class. The power of open source!

Ok, then expect to see all the softwares!!!

In all seriousness though, I'll keep that in mind :)

It should work with anything that wmctrl works with - easiest way to test would be to install wmctrl and issue 'wmctrl -l' and then 'wmctrl -R $windowTitle', where $windowTitle is anything that came up from wmctrl -l.

According to wmctrl it works with 'EWMH/NetWM compatible X Window Managers', and specifically 'Enlightenment, Icewm, Kwin, Sawfish, and Xfce.' It should work with awesome, fluxbox, compiz, and metacity (and xmonad if you turn on EWHM). I can't think of any other WMs, but I'm sure there are some that it won't work with.

All that being said, I've only tried it with Kwin/KDE4, and if you can confirm it working for other WMs that would be awesome.

It's not specific to Arch Linux at all other than it's my first AUR package and I was excited to share. I felt /r/Linux was inappropriate because all the submissions seem to be big news items.

I was actually wondering if there's a 'user made packages' subreddit for Linux in general, and I'm considering crossposting to /r/KDE.

How to Get URL Bar and Tab Bar in Same Row Similar to IE9 in Chrome? by sprremixin chrome

[–]teratomata 0 points1 point ago

I know that, but I want it to display on the same line as the URL bar.

Fedora vs. Ubuntu by Stosswalkinatorin linux4noobs

[–]teratomata 5 points6 points ago

As others have said, if you use the CD they try to minimize the apps to fit in everything else. Otherwise they both have a bajillion million things in the repositories, just install everything you want from there.

I also wish it was possible to edit the tabs and URL bars. But only because I want the bookmarks bar to be with the extensions icons.

I am using Vuze and every few seconds a warning sign comes up and says some computer is trying to access Vuze on my computer, asking me to block or allow (through Norton). How do I get it to stop? by tritium3in torrents

[–]teratomata -2 points-1 points ago

I'm really curious as to why you need an antivirus to log into the school internet? As in how do they even check for that??? Moreso, you don't need antivirus for OSX. The fundamental design of the system makes it hypothetically impossible to get a virus, however you can still install trojans if you want to.

[–]teratomata 10 points11 points ago

This. In all seriousness. Antivirus is a worse problem than actual viruses. If you insist on using windows, just get Microsoft Security Essentials - free, top quality, and unintrusive.

In 4 hours I'll be in my first Organic Chemistry class. Any advice on how to succeed? by hahahahawooin chemistry

[–]teratomata 1 point2 points ago

This, understanding the 5 reasons why the reactions happens means you won't have to memorize 50 different reactions. If you can't explain the subtle differences between two processes, don't say 'that's ok, I'll memorize the reaction', sit down and figure out what's going on.
