Suspicious Dish posted:heavily depends where you are in the company. are you doing rhel eng, and are you under hosted experience, dev experience, or server experience? Not really sure where I fall in under that hierarchy. I'll be working on the subscriptions systems, "the engineering wing of the IT branch" is sort of how it was described. I'm sure I'll know on Monday. I spent a long time talking to the PM/Team about what they do but it was well over a month ago now so I don't really remember. I really liked the team, so I think that bodes well. It's a contract for hire/external recruiter deal, which probably explains why I only have a vague idea of what I'll be doing.

from freedom came elegance

I agree you should shorten it to Mint. It definitely needs a new slogan. Elegance has a lot of negative connotations, and frankly, I don't think Mint is all that elegant. I love Mint, but not for it's "elegance". I love it for it's simplicity. It's stability. It's ease of use. It's simple and appealing default look. It's familiarity of layout by default seeming like Windows. It's "Clean". It's "Fresh". Mint is a great name for it. The slogan is pretty meh compared to how great Mint itself is. Simple. Clean. Fresh. Easy. Stable. Solid. Linux Mint Because my mom can't figure out Windows. Linux Mint It just can't get easier. Linux Mint Your computer always works now. Mint Solid. Easy. Free. Mint What your computer should have been 10 years ago. Mint It just works. Mint No viruses. No crashes. No fees. Mint Your car won't run forever, but now your computer can. Feel free to riff off my ideas, combine the concepts, reword them... But definitely Mint needs a new Image. I think just making it Mint would be a good first step.

Suspicious Dish posted:we have had invisible borders for ages now -- i wrote them for like 3.4 or so? it should be a 10px border default i believe It's definitely more than 1px but it needs to be two or three times whatever it is now (given the sensitivity issues). If I want to drag a window with the touchpad, I have to plant my finger in place and then slowly roll it over the border. I think this is a symptom of the sensitivity than the border being too small, though. DONT THREAD ON ME fucked around with this message at 15:16 on Jun 9, 2015 |

imo any more than 0 system is too many systems and if you have so many systems that you need help versioning them the only solution is to upgrade to 0 systems

pseudorandom name posted:previous versions of gnome 3 showed the notification area when you rammed the bottom of the screen with the cursor; that feature was too useful so they changed it to an ugly strip of pixels in the lower left that never goes away and slides out into an awkward drawer when you just barely mouse over it having it pop out like that would be awful. giant things popping out of the bottom of your screen needs to be reserved for really really important things, like docks/etc. the notification area is not that important. also it's really annoying that you cant turn it off now. those 3 extra pixels blocking tiny bits of font triggers me.

i want something that does what slate does on osx -- just a set of keybindings for arranging your windows into tiles that works over your existing WM. Does gnome have anything like that?
