I know this is funny and I had a laugh but modern led displays have brightness zones and can dim backlighting in dark areas. so a big bright image also uses more power than a dark image on them as well. I know, fun party facts 😅

You'd know if your desktop monitor was oled. Especially with how much they cost. Phones not so much since a lot of mid range ones will be OLED.
Easiest method is open a black image. Is the screen 100% off, no light being emitted by it? If there's light it's LCD. If there's no light then it's OLED, or a fancy LCD with dimming zones. Use your (white) cursor to activate the zones and see if you see light squares. If you can't then it's OLED, or mini/micro LED. And once again you'd probably know it's one of the two by the price you paid, or it's a MacBook Pro.
Ahh, thanks! So that's how my phone screen can be so dark, but then have one line of white text on it for the clock. I always thought that was kind of strange. Must be OLED, I guess.
Yeah, it comes from customizing cars and has a somewhat racist background, but many folks learn the word in the Linux communities and have no idea of any of that...
And I have been using it for nearly half my existence here on this planet: I heard the term within my first month, I was more jarred they called it porn though.

Yup its definitely racist in origin, relating to the slur for asians suping up imports, and everyone in this thread is a fucking neckbeard defending their racist terminology
Because they took time to make something from scratch with ingredients. i.e. Cooking. linux ricing started with only Window Managers and occasionally you get someone that modifies a DE. These people start from scratch to build their perfect environment. They aren't doing after market modifications. They literally pick the components they want and put it all together, write all the configs. Hence, Cooking.
Incredible! But does it come in dark mode?
yes, just unplug the machine.
Nice try Micro$lop.
So efficient!
I think we can abandon the thread here really.
Dark Mode
As default, please!
Yep. The default dark mode is the only mode so it is the default mode by default.
close your eyes for dark mode
White is a bloat colour, it takes more energy for your monitor to display white than any other colour since white is all parts of the LED on.
0/10, you're worse than a ai data center.

Edit: I have too much fun writing these
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!
Gosh darn it, forgot that one
Too coherent

Note: I forgot about local dimming, lol
Needs more Random capitAlisatioNs to be a True trump comment
For all the fucking shit
That he is putting us through
When all is said and done
He better burn hot in hell too
This is what we got now
What are we to do
About the conman and all of his crew
A sexual sadist, you just know it
And those people are the vilest to exist
racist, sexist, convicted felon rapist
And who can even tell all the crimes that were missed
Of all the shit that's redacted on the list
I'm pissed, fucker running the government like a business
Goodness, jesus, I sure can see
How he drove them into bankruptcy
Please dear lord end his presidency
A bullet or a stroke
Will do the job just as nicely
Crazy, letting this shady
Motherucker phase me
Maybe
It's time for another round
to hit this childish baby
If you line em up
You can getem both with one shot
That fat damn prick and his old lady
Time is coming, heart keeps throbbing
Syphilis aching, cholesterol spiking
God ain't listening to take a hit on the slob
Please, hamburgers, do your god damned job
...
I have written too many lyrics about the piece of shit I hope it ends soon
If you end lines with two spaces
And a single line feed
Instead of two line feeds
You can make stanzas
And improve readability
For everyone
Everyone is saying it
On an LCD screen it’s using less power to not block the light from coming through.
How do I know which one my monitor is?
Is it OLED?
If not it's an LCD.
It used to be that if something was one or two colors, it might be an OLED, like the sansa clip mp3 player.
These days, how do you tell if it is OLED or LCD? Or do you just have to know?
You'd know if your desktop monitor was oled. Especially with how much they cost. Phones not so much since a lot of mid range ones will be OLED.
Easiest method is open a black image. Is the screen 100% off, no light being emitted by it? If there's light it's LCD. If there's no light then it's OLED, or a fancy LCD with dimming zones.

Dude has a fancy led screen
Literally Bezos.
White is #FFFFFF which is not minimalist. Go for #000000 instead.
#fff for a leaner experience
Forget the color and just give it 100% transparency
Now I can see through my monitor
Too cluttered.
Yeah, the mouse cursor is really distracting.
You wear sunglasses while hacking?
Only note: Needs dark mode
If you burn your retinas enough like OP, then everything becomes dark mode
Don't you have a dark theme variant?
this is the dark theme variant
Please end it for me.
Bloated as fuck
Bloated, has a cursor
I give this a score of 10/0
Why are my ears ringing?
Still using a monitor? Bloated.
Tf man my eyes, redo it all over again with dark theme
Cursor=bloat
It’s certainly clean and minimal but I’ll give it a 0/10, you flashbanged me.
Resolution 1x1 with 1bit color depth. Nice.
nah theres a mouse cursor in the top left
I hate how long I thought my phone wasn't loading the image
You need a white cursor with a light gray border 😬 besides of that: very creative!
Look at all that bloat, what a kludge
Minimalist? Pfffff. Try going headless.
why is cursor black? not very minimalist- I would go further and only use vim and throw the mouse in trash.
Honestly based
This is what my i3 desktop looks like, just in black. I hate explaining to people why there's no taskbar or icons.
I do this in KDE, just with the taskbars hidden. Why, you might ask? Because I wanted a transparent Konsole, but wallpapers made it hard to read 🙃
Dotfiles?
I see, a Linux From Scratch setup.
Impressive that they managed to get Gnome running on it
Is empteh..
🤭
I had to look it up, 20 years of using, and customizing, Linux and I have never heard the word ricing before in this context.
Yeah, it comes from customizing cars and has a somewhat racist background, but many folks learn the word in the Linux communities and have no idea of any of that...
I really wish the community would use a different word. It's bad at communicating its meaning just to start.
I’m legitimately impressed by that.
And I have been using it for nearly half my existence here on this planet: I heard the term within my first month, I was more jarred they called it porn though.
::: spoiler spoiler Mom I swear, its a just a place where people post their sexy desktops. :::
0/10 it's not tux kart don't care
Nice, what's your fastfetch config?
Mouse pointer is bloat... /s
Too bright.
Very clean! How did you do it?
I think you should buy a mini led hdr screen and turn that ff ff ff into fu fu fu
ML ban inc in fifteen minutes.
I see my reflection. 10/10
Unconfigured Swaylock be like:
Looks dope but too much details for me
Im pretty sure ricing is a racist term that relates to asians and aftermarket cars... we should prob phase that out folks
I will wait until Asian ppl comain in volume or academia before worrying about that.
Shit take
Why is it shit? If no-one is feeling hurt, what is the point? Are you protecting ppl or being hyper-sensitive.
If you are asian and offended, then tell me so, and I avoid using the term. I won't even ask for proof or anything.
Why not just stop since you know it’s racist? Do you also use other racial slurs in your speech until someone complains to you?
Because I dn't think it's hurtful. I don't think it's designed to hurt anyone, and I don't hear anyone describing themselves as being hurt.
Are you white?
Are you? If you are Asian, and the term "ricing" offends you, then tell me so.
Dodge the question then
You sound like someone who thinks they're representing a group, but are actually just being hyper-sensitve.
Tell me that you are offended and asian.
I am concerned abiut identifying myself on lemmy, but I will admit that I am not Asian, and that I don't live in North America.
You sound like the kind of person who would justify saying something racist with, “but I’m saying a GOOD thing about those people!”
For fucks sake
What is racist about the term?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rice_burner
Yup its definitely racist in origin, relating to the slur for asians suping up imports, and everyone in this thread is a fucking neckbeard defending their racist terminology
When did lemmy get filled with shits
Rice burner, riced out, rice boy... and referring to a badly customized sports car...
So nothing at all to do with what we're talking about in this thread with linux setups?
Same term, same origin, basically same meaning, other device.
Linux Ricing
A cooking term dude. Pull your head out of your ass.
Thats the dumbest shit ive heard today
How is the linux term reffering to processing food with a ricer, and not aftermarket modification of ones possessions? You imbecile
Because they took time to make something from scratch with ingredients. i.e. Cooking. linux ricing started with only Window Managers and occasionally you get someone that modifies a DE. These people start from scratch to build their perfect environment. They aren't doing after market modifications. They literally pick the components they want and put it all together, write all the configs. Hence, Cooking.
Ricing is not making things from scratch, its mashing something through a ricer.
Possibly? In the linux world it just means making an appealing looking desktop for a unix machine
What about beansing? It offends the beans that they're being left out of the ricing
