Trying out NextSpace on Slackware -current with XLibre.

A modern implementation inspired by the classic NeXTSTEP desktop. It's interesting to see how its design and workflow still feel relevant decades later.

Definitely a fun project to explore.

Bob Scheifler announces the first release of the X Window System:

"I stole a fair amount of code from W ... and called it X."

Forty-two years later, I'm still running X11 daily on Slackware.

Happy Birthday, X.

the secret to surviving years of WM-hopping:

sxhkd handles the keys.
the WM handles the windows.
dmenu handles the launching.
