I love the style, I just hope not all the color variations simply change the taskbar, titlebar etc and the backgrounds and all remain that nuetral tannish color. It's annoying when I see a good theme that uses that generic tan color, despite how cool the color combinations elsewhere are. Especially for me, a Blackbox user, since with most themes I will never, ever see the titlebar or taskbar. When I run a theme like this, all I'll see prettymuch is that tannish color, so all these color options would be pointless for me.

I know I'm an incredibly small minority to want to cater to...but just something to think about. Keep up the great theming though, you do a good job.

Oh, and as far as whining goes.....yeah, some people need to just stfu, but everyone please keep in mind that just because something is free does not mean it should be exempt from critique and the like. Even free software and themes should live up to certain standards.

You wouldn't want your free software to have actions mapped to the wrong buttons, now would you? How enjoyable would it be to have to click OK instead of cancel due to bad programming? What about a theme that contains an alarmingly high number of glitches?

I appreciate everyones time that has gone into making all these wonderful themes....but I also hold on to the belief that if you're going ot seriously attempt to make a theme for public consumption, you should work towards certain standards.

Not that any of this really applies to Bose, I've never seen a reason to bitch about the things he does. He puts out nice, usable themes and a fair amount of them too. If you want a new color scheme so bad, do it yourself. It's not hard. I've done it many times, and one of those times led to my first VS.

      It's funny that iPhone users think they are getting feature, where in fact they are getting cosmetics that just do iteration circles of "improvement" of the said cosmetics. Apple just doesn't know what to do with this product anymore. There is no innovation on this areas anymore.

      You can disable the bloat on every browser. That's not the point. I will never use a browser of a shady company. I don't trust them at all. I can still find adblocking solutions than having to rely on a browser from a shady company.

    • Alpine Linux 3.24 released with support for COSMIC Desktop and other improvements

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Alpine Linux 3.24 released with support for COSMIC Desktop and other improvements by David Uzondu Alpine Linux 3.24 has been released with updated system packages, including Linux kernel 6.18 and Rust 1.96. The team also added IPv6 support to the system installer, and they introduced automatic serial console configuration for headless setups. System76's COSMIC desktop environment is now available in the community repo. System76 originally started building this DE because its developers found GNOME to be pretty limited. Plus, it did not help that with virtually every GNOME update, the changes broke System76's custom desktop extensions. As for system packages, the Alpine team moved GTK+ 3.0 from the main repository to the community repository due to its legacy status. py3-setuptools has been upgraded to version 82.0.0, while the old pkg_resources module has been completely dropped. The team also removed outdated packages that still relied on py3-six and GTK+ 2.0. In addition to that, libsoup 2 has been removed because the library was affected by multiple security vulnerabilities. If you're a GRUB user, the Alpine Team said that you must manually run the grub-install command with your specific device or EFI options right after upgrading your system, otherwise, your computer may fail to boot properly with the newly updated GRUB 2.14 bootloader. New installations of Alpine Linux now offer an optional path to a /usr-merged directory layout if you set the BOOTSTRAP_USR_MERGED environment variable to 1 before you execute the setup-disk command. If you already run an older installation, you can migrate manually by installing the merge-usr package and executing its binary as the root user. The team recommends this layout to align Alpine with modern Linux standards, though you should verify your custom scripts before making the switch. Alpine Linux is a pretty tiny (~5MB) Linux distro built around musl libc, BusyBox, and OpenRC. It's been around since 2005, comes with its own package manager called Alpine Package Keeper (APK), and is widely used in modern cloud computing and software deployment.
