Solarpunk Unix modding
Hello everybody!! This is my first post on this instance, glad to be here! So this is a bit of a tangent from most topics I saw here but I wanted to get the opinion of people that's immersed in the aesthetic of solarpunk.
I'm modding debian (linux) to create a sort of solarpunk software aesthetic. For this I take any suggestions you might have, backgrounds, color palettes small placeholders text anything.
color scheme: Everforest
Oh that's pretty good, definitely considering that
WM: Herbstluft
Terminal: foot
File Manager: Ranger
Color scheme: Spacedust
I know that was partly joking but spacedust and herbluft is a really a good suggestion that I might use. Any more of those? :D
I guess solarpunk modding should include radical energy saving.
radical energy s/safing/saving/ = low power usage
undervolt, disable cores, default scaling governor to power save, aggressive sleep, hybrid sleep and so forth
Decreasing peak speed generally makes tasks take longer, which means a worse duty cycle.
Finish fast and go to deepest sleep possible is the most energy efficient strategy for (embedded) computing in general.
he means modding to use less energy
Yeah it said safing when I read it and I thought it was just a word I wasn't familiar with. Ok that's a cool constraint that I might use
Well, the software would have to change first
When you're done it'd be cool to have it posted on reddit's unixporn for some solarpunk propaganda
Of course! I'll post it here if it looks cool enough!
You could use this to change the wall paper dynamically to the time of the day etc.: https://github.com/zzag/plasma5-wallpapers-dynamic
