  • All jokes aside, I was really unhappy with all my attempts to customize polybar, so searching around I found this mad-man and decided to ditch polybar altogether for dunst and little scrips.

    OP isn’t using Wayland – bspwm doesn’t support Wayland. However, if you use Wayland, it looks like polybar doesn’t support Wayland, and dunst does, so I suppose that that’d be an argument for doing so as well.


  • I just have a concern about fan noise and was wondering how loud or quiet these things are since I will be sitting next to it all day when working. It doesn’t need to be silent, since nothing else in the rack, though currently nothing like the levels of typical rack equipment.

    Not really what you’re asking for, but there are enclosed racks with sound isolation. Though they are a bit pricey, to my way of thinking.

    While it might work in the OS, setting the OS up may be a pain (the installer may or may not work like that) and I strongly suspect that the BIOS can’t handle it.

    I suspect that an easier route would be to use a cheap, maybe older, low-end graphics card for the video output and then using DRI_PRIME with that with the other graphics card.




  • I’m not familiar with Greely, but looking online, it sounds like they have a very large cattle slaughterhouse there. So you’ve got some smells from waste and processing from that, plus cow manure from associated cattle lots, and it’s near Denver, so there are enough Denverites that travel through it for the reputation to spread.
