    Ricing, originally short for "Racing with a Rice Rocket or Ricer, an racist slur that became popular a few years back in OS Themeing and customization. (I first noticed it in HyprLand customization, which in itself is not free of controversy, but I do not know where it came from).

    Not accusing you of anything, just FYI.

    It looks beautiful.

    Why does the background of the top bar only go 3/4 of the way down and not all the way of the height of the bar?

      Yeah, it is. It originated around the first Fast and Furious movie to describe kitting out your import Asian car with stickers and unnecessary parts.

      I love the unixporn, but am constantly disappointed that this term persists.
