Pimp up your Terminal with Guake and Yakuake

If you're wondering whether Guake and Yakuake are Polynesian happy mushrooms, you're a bit off mark. These are Linux command line terminals, modified to behave like the console in the popular First Person Shooter (FPS) Quake. Hence, the funny names.

Guake and Yakuake are good-looking and fun - and most importantly - they will help you increase your productivity. So start using them, today. Happy Linuxing.

functionally kde4 was pretty good, everyone hated it because the interface was ugly as gently caress and felt like it was designed by and for people who spend so much time in a dark room that they need sunglasses in the presence of a 40 watt light bulb. you could try to make it look nicer but that usually had the side effects of misaligned buttons, squished icons and cut-off controls.

lol functionally

i remember "u can place a clock widget on a screen, zoom it up 125% and rotate it 22 degress to the left and make it semitransparent" being a huge selling point and loving lmao idiot nerds

Luke Wolf, a KDE developer, argues that PC-BSD might become a serious desktop OS contender by year 2020, since Linux so far has failed to grasp any serious market share.

"PC-BSD on the other hand in fitting with the BSD mindset of holistic solutions is focused on developing desktop features and is moving rapidly to implement them."

so are all kde devs retarded fuckwits or is it just this one special pissflower, i mean going by the product they output id say all of them but

Notorious b.s.d. posted:

and none of the plasma stuff works on a real tablet because it can't handle high-DPI

i remember that much unlike gnome dipshits which exist in purely hypothetical tablet/user space someone kde was dumb enough to actually try to make an kde tablet; not sure how that ended but i hope for tears and general misery
