this is my #introduction!

i'm very interested in #operatingsystems / #OS. including #microsoftwindows / #windows, and #linux.

i'm also interested in #nintendo, #anime (but not all categories of it!), and some of #indiegames.

finally!! i fixed the "pkexec not showing its GUI window" issue by adding "/usr/lib/policykit-1-gnome/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1 &" to the openbox autostart file.

i was deeealing with this because i didn't like running the "sudo program" command when a program needs pkexec.

hopefully this will help any new openbox user who has this issue.

...are the last 3 toots on the local mas.to timeline posted by... spam accounts??

at this day, 22nd of july, 10 years ago, microsoft released windows 7!!

the fix is to copy the gtk-3.20 folder from the original numix gtk theme to the numix gtk dark theme.

the result will be in the first image.

there are some lightness in gtk 3.20 applications.

simply replacing the text from gtk.css to gtk-dark.css removes the lightness! (on the second image)

here's the strange thing in the original numix gtk dark theme.

the window columns' (unsure what is it originally called) spaces are being removed. probably this happens in gtk 3.0+ applications.

the cause of this is because the gtk-3.20 folder being missing.

the theme is last updated last year though!

this is my openbox desktop!

the panel i used is lxpanel.
my conky widget is "AP-info-debianUpdates-coloursMod-oldsyntx" from MX linux, but i edited it.
the theme i used is numix dark, as shown in neofetch, but i have improved it by replacing the original numix theme with the original numix dark color configuration and other touches.

openbox is honestly one of the most amazing linux desktop(?) environments in my opinion!
on my minimal ubuntu installation, it only uses around 130-185MB of RAM!

(a bit) oddly, a linux distro i tried a year ago has been following me on here after i followed!

most of mastodon users who are interested in technology do really love linux more than any other operating system, right??

i find that alright to me, as a windows user and a half linux user (meaning that i dual boot, but i use windows more).

but, are there users who can just, respect operating systems than insulting them except their main operating system(s), or...?

(can i normally toot windows related toots without getting harassment and such?)

i really would love to see these text symbols being also emojis!

*an introduction toot

aaaa mastodon doesn't have the edit toot feature just like twitter?? not even with a time limit??

should i create a introduction toot on here?
i created one on knzk.me, but now KNZK has been shutdown since the last two weeks.

these two mastodon instances that i've joined them before since the past months, https://scifi.fyi, and https://knzk.me, are probably now nonfunctioning?

https://scifi.fyi shows an error page, and https://knzk.me has replaced every webpage with one web page with a youtube embed player. :\

hello world!

this mastodon instance seems to be quiet mostly.
it deserves to have more users on here.

anyways, i think that this instance has a nice, cute little domain! that's why it should have got more and more users on here. like a thousand of users.
