I think yoy ned to profred your comments more.

Fun fact: your “fun fact” is a myth. Artificial banana flavor is not “based off Gros Michael”. The flavoring is not some sort of recipe that was based off of anything. It’s a single chemical found in all bananas. It’s a coincidence that Gros Michael tastes more like fake banana flavoring than other bananas, but all bananas contain that same ester: isoamyl acetate. It’s just that Gros Michael has more of it.

However, if you dig in to this tale a little it soon becomes clear that there is little or no verifiable source that artificial banana is based on Gros Michel. “It sounds very, very unlikely to me,” says synthetic organic chemist Derek Lowe.

So please stop repeating this myth.

In addition, you’re completely wrong about artificial vanilla flavor. It is the exact ester found in real vanilla, and it is by far the most dominant flavor in real vanilla. It tastes exactly like vanilla minus a few extra subtle notes.

I second this. The OBS virtual camera is great for stuff like this. Works with any software that a webcam works with.

Just because one thing is better than another doesn’t mean the other isn’t good!

But thank you for the tip. I actually don’t like KCalc. My post was a joke because I thought the question was kinda dumb.

It doesn’t sound like you understand what personal information is. It includes things like contacts, calendar, and emails.

This back end service exists because, in the past, programs were all doing their own thing, but now KDE provides that information as a service. With a standard API. So you can have two programs installed that manage your contacts, and they’re both using the same list of contacts. Same with your calendar. Back in the day, if you used two different programs to store contacts, you would have two databases of contacts.

Calling that bloatware is just stupid. It’s literally a core service that a useful operating system should provide.

In addition, learn how to use a search engine instead of posting in the forum like this. It was trivial to find out how to disable it permanently. Trivial! Asking us to do your work for you and then tacking on a “conversation starter” at the end doesn’t make your post any more palatable.

Here’s your answer:

KCalc. Man, it just computes! It can add, subtract, and even multiply. It’s never given a wrong answer.

There are two ways to do it with KeePass (or KeePassXC or KeePassDX):

1. using the auto-type feature with a virtual keyboard
2. Using it as the desktop’s “secrets provider”.

When I asked if KeePassXC could work on Wayland, I meant, “does the auto-type feature work yet?” I actually have not looked into using KeePassXC as a secrets provider.

The built-in AutoType feature uses a virtual keyboard to type passwords by switching to the target window and then typing them in as if it were you using a real keyboard. This works in Windows, Android, and X11 (insecurely), but not in Wayland.

On a desktop PC, you can configure the auto-type sequence in an individual entry or on the folder it’s in. Then you press Ctrl-V with an entry selected, and KeePassXC will switch to the previous window and start typing like a keyboard. You control when it presses Tab to switch fields, when it types the username or password, and if it hits Enter to submit the login. Stuff like that.

On Windows, the above is secure unless some random app comes to the front as soon as you press the AutoType hotkey. Other programs can’t read the keystrokes. On X11 this is insecure. Every program running on the computer can hear every keystroke from every keyboard (real or virtual). This is just one of the reasons why Wayland exists, to eliminate security holes like this, and why KeePassXC under Wayland can’t do auto-typing. (Yet)

On Android, you use the KeePass virtual keyboard to AutoType entries. I personally use KeePassDX, but I’m sure there are other ones. Like all Android keyboards, it needs to be enabled in settings before you can use it. You either open KeePass, choose an entry, and then switch to the KeePass keyboard, or switch to the keyboard first, click one of the buttons, and KeePassDX will launch, and have you choose a key to load.

Either way, the KeePass virtual keyboard presents you with buttons for username, password, or any other text fields, and you simply focus the field you want to be typed into, and press the appropriate button. It’s secure. Other apps can’t intercept the keystrokes. I would screen shot what the keyboard looks like, but I can’t do that because of the security settings. KeePassDX blocks screenshots by default, and that carries over to its virtual keyboard.

The other option on Linux is you can configure KeePassXC to be the “secrets provider”. Then, when an application does the formal request for a stored secret on the system, KeePassXC provides it instead of KWallet or whatever your DE uses. I have never tried this out, and I don’t know how secure it is.

Does KeepassXC work under Wayland yet without having to use the clipboard to paste passwords?

Do they actually look like stickers in use, or is that just the presentation on the GitHub page?

First, you break into the house, then you install an invisible backdoor, and then you can come and go freely.

It’s a “post-exploit” tool. It’s the persistent backdoor you install after you break in. It survives reboots, unlike most exploits.

apt dist-upgrade. No first dash.

Notice it’s apt not apt-get. That’s all they were saying.

Fix your title. The answer is “no”. People are getting the wrong idea.

From GIMP team: We are NOT rebranding GIMP

Take a time to read the commit messages and the commit diff.

Pacman has the worst syntax of all package managers. pacman -Syyurape

apt is fine, and zypper is the friendliest, I think. It’s similar to apt, but has obvious two-letter abbreviations for commands. It also has nice coloring of the output.

This should be in your title. Your title sounds like you’re ripping off user data from Piefed in order to put ads on it.

This is why you have 60 downvotes and all these people calling you an unethical jerk.

Different than what? You mean between Linux and Windows? No, but you can have them pre-install an OS of your choice.

Oh, I see. I did some looking and it seems it’s a lightweight, UEFI-only replacement for GRUB.

I installed it last Summer. Does that mean I’m currently running a different init system?

Does it actually list the packages that are suggested?

If a package is recommended, it gets installed by default. They’re not strictly necessary for the core functionality of the main package, but they are commonly used by many users.

On the other hand, suggested packages are like plugins. They won’t necessarily be important to most users, but some might find them handy. Things like alternate backends for specific use cases, or a plugin to enable a specific (and rarely used) service.

I haven’t used apt in a while, but I don’t think there’s a way to automatically install all suggested packages. I think you just install them manually by copying and pasting the package names, and running additional apt install commands.

But unless you know what specific usage you need before I probably wouldn’t bother.

I’ve tried nothing and I’m all out of ideas.
