Tuning / ricing is overrated. I used to spend hoursyears ricing my desktop (enlightenment DR16 anyone?). Screw that, Gnome it is: simple, elegant, functional.
I do add 2 very useful plugins tho: Wobbly Windows and the Spinning Cube. Shows my age I guess.
My bad (seriously). What’s the slang now to “spend hoursyears fiddling with a zillion parameters so my desktop is exactly like I want it for the next 5 minutes”?
It’s not a you problem, it’s just a bit of casual racism that slipped through the cracks; insidious because most people don’t even realize it’s a problem.
We called it theming before that other term got popular, I never saw a reason to stop.
Most people have. The specific bike/car subculture isn’t really a thing any more so the term is gone too. It’s only still hanging on in older gentoo users.

Really wish we would drop “ricing” from the vernacular.

Oops, probably shows (again) my age. Is because “ricing” was ethnic something ?
