Set Background Wallpapers On i3wm

i3wm is a tiling window manager that is powerful and resource efficient. It is used by many geeks who prefer more resources for their computers. I personally use it when I need to fire up virtualization software so my computer will have sufficient RAM for the guest OS. Unfortunately, i3wm doesn’t provide a way/tool to set up wallpapers on our beloved computers. A fresh install of this window manager would leave us a black screen and an i3status at the bottom. Luckily today, you’ll be rel

Linux Kernel Vs. Mac Kernel

Both the Linux kernel and the macOS kernel are UNIX-based. Some people say that macOS is “linux”, some say that both are compatible due to similarities between commands and file system hierarchy.

Terminus A Modern Terminal App For Linux

A couple of years of using various Linux distros have shown me a lot of new stuff. Some interesting user interfaces, some new package managers but one place where I haven’t seen many inventions is the terminal. It has always been the same old shell that comes by default. Even though it is one of the most used things, I haven’t seen much of a variation with it. But recently I came across Terminus – A terminal for the modern age. So I decided to give it a try. First of all, let us look at

12 Reasons Why To Use Gnome Desktop

You must (occasionally) be wondering which Desktop Environment is the best for Linux. And while most long-time Linux users have found their preferred desktop based on experience and computing purposes, some of us and including newbies are still stuck with the same question.

Sticking to one of them depends entirely on the perspectives of the user and his pr

We knew that Valve was working on something like this, offering the possibility that Steam Linux users could play video games that have not been officially ported to the platform, that is, the majority of games available for Windows.   But now not only has the existence of such a tool been confirmed, we can also test it now. The new Steam Play is basically a modified version of Wine created by Valve, called “Proton”, an integrated directly in the Steam client. Proton is an open source pr
