Ever since Carlos Silva left a comment on my last post about this repository, I was left wondering if it wouldn’t be better to migrate my current VM to Scaleway. The price/specs seemed better and for the marginal difference of €1 I would get a dual-core virtual machine with 2GB of RAM and 50Gb of disk space. After a couple of weeks of reflection, I bought a “Start1-S” VPS for €3,99/month and I’ve been (successfully) testing aurto to manage the repository updates....

Due to my own dumbness (I mistakenly deleted my Ubuntu partition), I installed Manjaro, using the Manjaro Architect release, on my laptop. I’d been thinking about doing it for a while and finally made it because I was too stupid to read the instructions from cfdisk. The shit you create yourself because you’re in a hurry… Anyway, after installing Manjaro, I started reading a bit about this distro packaging and how I could leverage AUR and binary packages....

I’ve patched the next GTK theme for Gnome, for a screen resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels. The changes include reducing the CSD height, changing the padding on some buttons and decreasing Gnome Terminal tabs height. There are still some bugs with the theme. For example, Eye of Gnome still has a huge CSD height. I’ll hopefully fix this in the near future, if doable via theming. Feel free to clone it or fork it....

Hoje chegaram os autocolantes que encomendei no Sticker Mule em dezembro, numa promoção em que o pack ficava a €1 e pouco. Com isto, já posso dizer que sou geek e o meu portátil ficou “lit af”. Só tenho pena que o pack não incluísse um autocolante do projeto GNU. Teria sido ouro sobre azul.
