Even though this question has probably been asked countless times in other communities, I still want to know: what tool do you think comes closest to ShareX? I’m particularly interested in features like image capture, video recording, GIF creation, and OCR reading all in one tool for Linux.
Personally I use ksnip. Pretty sure it doesn’t do video though. It does do assorted image capture, OCR (if you have Tesseract installed), and supports uploading to imgur, FTP, and anything you can manage to do with a script.
There isn’t really a perfect replacement for ShareX that I know of.
Nah, I’m good. I’m fine with services being limited to what information they can convince my browser to give them, rather than what they can convince my phone to give them. Or try and convince me to give them permission to access.
I wouldn’t even bring my phone, or if I absolutely needed something like that, I’d buy a cheapass pre-paid burner. And keep it off until you actually need it.
Probably depends how you define things. Like, is Xubuntu Xubuntu or Ubuntu with Xfce included by default? How much change is necessary before it’s not “debian with added bits”?
I often hear folks in the Linux community discussing their preference for Arch (and Linux in general) because they can install only the packages they want or need - no bloat....
I don’t. Modern computers have a LOT of resources. The whole ‘minimalist computing’ thing some people go on about is really odd to me. And I say that as someone who remembers when 16K was impressive. I can see it for restricted environments, where every byte counts, but not for desktops.
I’m looking for recommendations for an Android app to track and report GPS-type data (if such an app exists). Specifically, I’m hoping to be able to extract stops, origin/destination, roads/route traveled, and speed information....
OSMAnd on fdroid can record all sorts of trip data and can spit it out as gpx files, which are just XML and probably pretty parsable in something like Python. That might get you at least some of what you want.
Hello, I’m a bit new to advanced linux and programming stuffs… Can someone explain me why compiling exists and what this process does and how to do it in the principals situations (I’ve heard that you can use the “makepkg” command). Thx to everyone who replied.
Compiling code converts it from human readable source code into optimized machine code which the processor understands how to execute. For a lot of software you can just unpack the source code, run ./configure, run ‘make’, and then ‘make install’. This can vary a lot and is a simplified explanation, but it’s a start…
I’ve wandered through a bunch of them. Used to use Florisboard. Unexpected Keyboard is pretty good too. The Hacker’s Keyboard for some stuff. Mostly these days Heliboard for general typing.
To preface this, I’ve used Linux from the CLI for the better part of 15 years. I’m a software engineer and my personal projects are almost always something that runs in a Linux VM or a Docker container somewhere, but I’ve always used a Mac to work on personal and professional projects. I have a Windows desktop that I use...
Yes. I’d like to donate my body to science too, but I want to see if there’s a way to do it non-profit. I’m not interested in helping make someone rich.
True. It was a lot shorter than typing “This is sourced, but RT is the media arm of the Kremlin and about as reliable as the National Enquirer. And definitely shouldn’t be trusted when russia stands to directly gain from painting ukraine as a bunch of terrorists. Especially when a known terrorist group has already said they did it.” though. YMMV.
