Maybe Lemmy can forcibly invent a new term for "ricing". (Good faith pls)

I'd learned about this last week, and this stuff is a bunch of Wikipedia searches so forgive me if I miss anything :]

Similar to git master and whitelist/blacklist having addressed racist origins, I've just learned that "ricing" -- i.e. way-far-from-default, colorfully souped-up *nix customizations -- came from a derogatory word for Asian "riced out" cars.

Now I'm not here to start a debate on whether the term itself is bad. The arguments are done to death and predictable (old thread_{hope I can link here}). Rather, I posit that we could probably invent a new term if we forced it hard enough.

For example, 4chan forcibly invented the use of the ok hand for "white power", as a collective prank (Wikipedia).

So why can't Lemmy invent something too?

I surmise it has to be (1) somewhat unique and (2) short and nounable/verbable.

• Customization doesn't fit -- it's too broad. Changing the wallpaper is a customization -- diagonalizing your screen is a rice (term to be replaced...).
• Bespoke doesn't fit either. That's for a duct-tape script you hack together.
• Pimping out... is not a good alternative. It preexists^{(citation needed?)} and has inertia but it's not any better.
• Souping up... doesn't roll off the tongue so much. But it's food-related (and thus not far from "rice"). Though I can't see myself saying "Yo, check out this epic soup."

Brainstorming welcome :P
