2025-08-02 00:28:15 +0200 <haskellbridge> <austin128> interesting
2025-08-02 00:27:49 +0200 <geekosaur> even Haskell's typeclasses, which look vaguely like OO at first blush, are very differemt and work in ways that OO programmers are likely to consider "backwards"
2025-08-02 00:27:05 +0200 <geekosaur> OO won't help with FP at all; in some ways they're opposites
2025-08-02 00:26:17 +0200 <haskellbridge> <austin128> seems like an interesting concept though
2025-08-02 00:25:44 +0200 <haskellbridge> <austin128> and I try to avoid OO junk which might make me even further from understanding functional programming
2025-08-02 00:24:40 +0200 <haskellbridge> <austin128> well I'm mostly just used to C and C++ I guess (and a little bit of Go, python, JS, typescript)
2025-08-02 00:24:01 +0200 <geekosaur> it'll take some getting used to if you're used to OO languages; functional programming is quite different
2025-08-02 00:23:27 +0200 <haskellbridge> <austin128> well this is working pretty nice now I'm really liking xmonad even if I have to configure it with this arcane haskell language (I'm I think a decent programmer and this haskell stuff is crazy)
2025-08-02 00:21:33 +0200 <geekosaur> *which one
2025-08-02 00:21:26 +0200 <geekosaur> (I don't think marco has compositing actually built in, it just runs an external one for you. Which I'm not sure)
2025-08-02 00:21:02 +0200 <haskellbridge> <austin128> huh interesting
2025-08-02 00:20:17 +0200 <geekosaur> likewise with Mate if you replace marco with xmonad you lose compoositing and will need picom to get it back
2025-08-02 00:19:31 +0200 <geekosaur> I think only Gnome and KDE come with compositors, and you lose KDE's if you use xmonad as window manager instead. (You can't replace Gnome's; you can only use its utilities.)
2025-08-02 00:18:46 +0200 <haskellbridge> <austin128> ah I still need picom
2025-08-02 00:15:55 +0200 <haskellbridge> <austin128> hmm do I still need picom with xfce or is a compositor included
2025-08-02 00:13:16 +0200 <haskellbridge> <austin128> and it looks identical minus the old screen tearing nice
2025-08-02 00:12:54 +0200 <haskellbridge> <austin128> hooray it works great for setting the refresh rate
2025-08-02 00:11:38 +0200 <haskellbridge> <austin128> I quite like how I can sortof replicate my system with the nix config makes all this tweaking a lot easier really
2025-08-02 00:09:17 +0200 <haskellbridge> <austin128> cool xfce is what I'm building now
2025-08-02 00:08:29 +0200 <geekosaur> xfce is smaller, lxde / lxqt should be smaller yet
2025-08-02 00:03:54 +0200 <haskellbridge> <austin128> would make all this a lot simpler
2025-08-02 00:03:22 +0200 <haskellbridge> <austin128> I was trying to not use a desktop enviroment but maybe I should just set it up with mate or something small (is xfce smaller I wonder)
2025-08-02 00:02:11 +0200 <haskellbridge> <austin128> I can't even figure out how to change the refresh rate with the command line on nix os aaa
2025-08-01 23:41:59 +0200 <f-a> eh not cool (dickheads maintainers)
2025-08-01 23:41:46 +0200 <f-a> mhhhhhhhh I see. Thanks! I will look into it
2025-08-01 23:41:29 +0200 <liskin> And the maintainers are arrogant dickheads
2025-08-01 23:41:18 +0200 <liskin> It's possible it can be made simpler with upower but up until very recently it was impossible to configure it to not do stuff on its own
2025-08-01 23:39:53 +0200 <liskin> f-a: I just use this simple thing - https://github.com/liskin/dotfiles/blob/home/bin/liskin-battery-watch
2025-08-01 23:17:40 +0200 <geekosaur> personally, I use Mate because it's smaller than KDE or Gnome and it's relatively easy to integrate XMonad with it (see the wiki)
2025-08-01 19:53:02 +0200 <haskellbridge> <austin128> fair
2025-08-01 19:52:51 +0200 <L29Ah> i have no clue, but i find the requirement that you gave necessarily resulting in tons of dependencies and being terrible
2025-08-01 19:51:45 +0200 <haskellbridge> <austin128> If I install the kde setttings manager does it have a ton of dependencies or is it not terrible
2025-08-01 19:51:05 +0200 <L29Ah> try kde or gnome
2025-08-01 19:49:32 +0200 <haskellbridge> <austin128> does anyone have a good recommendation for like a settings app, like one manage network settings and display refresh rate. I have found an app for network management but it would be nice to have it in a single app like a normal desktop system
2025-08-01 19:23:27 +0200 <f-a> dunst seems nice and light too
2025-08-01 19:22:35 +0200 <L29Ah> dunst
