Dune Movie themed desktop, Alsafi base
I'm new to linux, and this was one of my first projects i wanted to do to learn some things. I started with a base widget, Alsafi, available here: https://www.gnome-look.org/p/2129888 . I tried for a while to modify that original one to fit more modules into it, got pretty close.. and then started to break a lot of stuff trying to line things up, especially the large temp readout (it uses some wacky negative alignment stuff to do that) Learned some LUA along the way. I think that is what it is called.
so i broke it up into 5 widgets, calculated each widgets spawn point so they all lined up and looked like one widget. Media is linked to spotify, Uplink is just printing network stuff, Milange is SECRETS. Desktop i googled for. Taskbar is set to the linux mint included dark mode with yellowish icons and stuff, themes it up real nice. I have a few other desktops that rotate. The best one, however, is one of a close up of black dune sand. There is a million like it but not that one.. i think it is an adobe asset i don't want to pay 20$ for. No idea how i got it for free the first time, cant find it again.
Forgot to show terminal! It's Terminator with an Atreides desktop..in it.
Oh and the marching bar in the top module reads cpu loads, and sorta looks like dunes rolling by when it does that.
