Holly Bistoofly!!! I now have a decent #Polybar working with #WindowMaker - as in not interfering with snaped windows πŸŽ‰πŸ•ΊπŸͺ©
@debacle @florke64 @adbenitez #WindowMaker is the retro wm I would turn to on a Jurassic laptop, just saying.
#Windowmaker on a 5K display is ... fun. Especially when it's normally configured for a 2256x1504 laptop display.
I had completely forgotten about the Window Maker Live Linux distribution, currently based on Debian 13.3. Back in the day, Window Maker was, by far, my favorite. I think I'll download this latest release and give it a try. Honestly, technology just isn't as fun as it used to be. Maybe running this distro again will light a spark for me.

Carnaval, compilando OpenAge... en el centro de comandos Undernet #undernet #openage #ageofempires #slackware #windowmaker #hamradio

continuing to work on #WindowMaker style #DockApps for #Fluxbox. Currently have:
* fluxCalClock
* fluxMatrix
* fluxMoon
* fluxData (for moon and weather data)
* fluxKeyboardLayout
* fluxPowerControl
* fluxMail
and
* fluxPlayer

fluxPlayer is not working well yet, but I don't have a lot of experience with controlling media players remotely. (usually just use #MPV). Working on fluxNetwork now; fluxWeather will be after that.

#Anthropic #ClaudeCode just helped me make fluxMoon --- my third #WindowMaker #DockApp for #Fluxbox (on #Linux, #Gentoo, in my case). Took about 10 minutes, but only because I was reading email also.

I love the old dock apps. been using them since the late 1990s. Have 7 now, used to be ~12.

My new ones are homage but for modern systems --- 64, 96, and 128px options, l/c/r mouse button options, config file support, and written in #Rust. So, I hope at least not horribly insecure?

#FLOSS

I don't want to start a flame war or anything, but I spent half of today #VibeCoding a solar system exploration #game and a #python program to create montages of the images in a folder. Also started on a modern #WindowMaker Dock App for #Fluxbox.

Imagine what I (barely amateur level programmer) will be able to (ask an LLM to) do in a couple of years? Will it destroy Open Source? Will it end proprietary software? How will the powers that be capture it and monetize it?

@boilingsteam although not strictly DMs I love #windowmaker and #fluxbox.
This is what I love about #FOSS . There is so much choice and choice is a good thing..don't be afraid to try something different, stand out and own your workflows.
@dennyhenke Currently #Gnome, but anything goes as I've been using Linux as my only OS since 1998. I used for a while #KDE but I just can't bring myself to like it, #WindowMaker, #IceWM, #Enlightenment @macthemes
