>>432 I really like this one, good job! mine is quite bland, my phone's battery doesn't last very long so an AMOLED friendly homescreen helps quite a bit. And to be honest, I'm trying to use my phone less

>>432 it just werks

I should probably switch it. I've been using this for the past two years already

I wanted new wallpaper and ringtone for my new phone, but nothing seems worthwhile, so I just stick to defaults, which is kinda sad.

Only if you're a cute maid.

OP is 200% underage and >>845 is a cp robot that has gained sentience

>>853 Who's bot you're bot!

all I asked for was a proxy Jesus lol

*this imageboard have been hacked*

Sadly there are none as of now I was actually planning on starting one (probably never)

>>789 I would be your first user ! (do it)

>>787 does lainchan not have stuff like that? i do not browse it often.

it is source-based. in my experience this means mainly three things: - if something breaks or doesn't compile I can fix it myself without having to search internet forums and such - I can set compilation flags to adapt programs to my needs and environment - it is easier to create and maintain my own packages for the package manager I use it mostly for Recreational Programming, I often browse github for libraries for my projects and most of the time they aren't popular enough to be in the package repository of any distro. with gentoo I can write an ebuild and have the library installed and maintained by the package manager in less than 5 minutes it fits my use-case well but I don't know if I would recommend it to other people. it isn't hard but you need some experience with c/c++ toolchains, autotools and cmake for it to be anything more than just another distro with less support than debian now that I think about it, one notable thing is that gentoo doesn't do stuff behind your back so to speak, so there aren't as many opportunities for things to break unexpectedly. I guess that can be a plus even for inexperienced users

and yes, I'm too dumb and lazy to learn nix/guix

>>694 Advantages? No. There is none. I've spent one entire year with Gentoo and three months with Funtoo, and, these two are simply distros for enthusiasts. That's it. Don't get me wrong, Portage is a good package manager, but you'll probably spend a lot of time with it, and it's just not worthy.

>>728 debian uses binary packages, right? based on my brief experience with debian I would guess you have to first create the packages and then add them to a local repository (this is, a local list of packages) >compile and "install" the package to a $dummy dir (I think cmake has flags to do this, similar to --prefix with ./configure) >mkdir -p $dummy/debian; nano $dummy/debian/control (https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#debian-binary-package-control-files-debian-control) >dpkg-deb -b $dummy this will create a .deb for $dummy with the files that make install (or cmake install) would normally add to your /usr/local then you create a local repository in the arbitrary dir $lrep >mkdir $lrep >cd $lrep >cp -r dir/with/deb_files/* . >dpkg-scanpackages . > Packages >echo "deb [trusted=yes] file:/path/to/$lrep /" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/lrep.list replace $dummy with the name of your package and $lrep with the name of your local repository (same with /path/to/$lrep). here is an example of a debian control file https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-faq/pkg-basics.en.html#controlfile notice that the only required fields are package, version, architecture, maintainer and description

>>729 I want git pull, magick.sh, apt install, https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debmake-doc/index.en.html

>>730 what do you mean?

>>731 There's so much info about packaging. I want to 1. git pull/wget the source code of the release I want to compile 2. run magick.sh that will make me a package 3. apt install it I could implement all that but I lack mental capacity to comprehend all the documentation right now

>>732 without getting into source-based packages that sounds easy to automate in a very crude way, you don't really need debmake or debuild, just have a script download and untar the release, compile and install to a prefix, add the debian control file, generate the .deb, move it to your local repository, and update it's metadata the only problem with this approach is dependency detection, but considering you are already compiling the software, I assume you have the dependencies anyways. it is a bad practice but you can list the dependencies later I guess

>>711 Literally just write a program and you will learn by googling syntax If you are on linux you likely have a preinstalled resource for the stdlib (ew) and (most) linux interfaces >rpg puts() is as good as any high-level shitlang.

>>711 "Modern C" by Jens Gustedt is more or less the default C beginner book. There is a CC version (https://inria.hal.science/hal-02383654/file/ModernC.pdf) so you don't even need to libgen it. >a simple RPG to play in my terminal Elaborate?

>>711 Anon we all start somewhere and it's okay to start with a scripting language like Python. Learn enough Python to build your simple game then move on if you feel like it. No need to commit to one language for all time. Sorry this didn't really answer your question. >>716 This is good advice for your 2nd language but if you don't know how to program at all you'll need some guidance to get started.

>>716 >puts() is as good as any high-level shitlang. I think OP wanted to make something like nethack and not 100% text, but I could be interpreting it wrong. In that case I recommend looking into (n)curses, however it WILL be very frustating, as there is little documentation, but it is doable. Just make sure to gather some more programming experience and keeping this on your backlog, before starting with it, as it's a bit advanced. >>721 As this anon, said, you probably should start with an easier language first. Sure, you can try C, but it will much likely be frustrating and not very fun. Ncurses bindings exist for Python as well, so you can make your terminal RPG with that too. See here: https://docs.python.org/3/howto/curses.html For learning Python just pick up some book from the last 10 years about the language (it's important that it is Python 3 and not Python 2.7) and read through it. The book or course or video playlist doesn't matter as much, as does practice. It's important you try as much stuff out as possible, so you make mistakes and learn from them, but also because you'll gain an understanding of programming overall. If you don't know which book to choose, just try this: https://libgen.rs/book/index.php?md5=922B856D66574746B69EC69E67C20A17 In case you don't like authors writing style, the examples or find it otherwise not helpful, just search through libgen with keywords such as "Python programming", "Learn Python" or "Python Course"

Just use haskell people seem to have a very wrong opinion on it. It's super easy to use and it's extremely fast out of the box, almost on par with C, only 5% slower at most!

>>661 >paragraphs such a waste of time how'd that guy do those shiny particles over his text???

>>539 >what distro of linux is the best for a beginner in linux? all of them

>>628 >Arch he actually uses systemd

>>539 as many have already said, linux mint is what i recommend to any beginner. it is my favorite "just werks" distro. i use the default cinnamon DE version on laptop for college and it does me just fine. it functions similar to windows, is based on debian (and is therefore stable), and comes with all the bells and whistles a noob would want from a distro. most games work fine on linux now as well so if you're a gaymer you'll have no issues as installing steam is either one command in the terminal or a few clicks in the software manager.

>>539 I am using gentoo although I wouldn't recommend it to a beginner. I suppose mint or ubuntu are the most user friendly distros out there.

>>472 qbittorrent is open source (you dont need to read the code though), find in what directory its looking for the icons and swap the picture out for something to your liking >I mean there are presets I saw somewhere sometime on the internetz You should be able to find that too unless they did some web-based bs, in that case there is a forum you can ask in: forum.qbittorrent.org

>>427 I am having some of the same problems but am just trying to do projects on topics I am interested in. FOr instance I am making an IRC client in c++.
