Honestly I print out anything my little kiddo does at school on his Chromebook, and some stuff has black backgrounds. I got tired of wasting toner so I made a script that would print a negative screenshot if it’s a dark image. One keystroke and I get what I want

When I press Super + PrtSc, a bash script performs the following:

Takes a screenshot of the entire desktop (import -window root) and saves it as ~/screenshot.png…

Analyzes the screenshot to calculate the “mean brightness” value of the image. It converts the image to grayscale and determines the average pixel brightness (a value between 0 and 1, where 0 is black and 1 is white).

Checks if the image is dark by comparing the mean brightness to a threshold of 0.2. If the mean brightness is less than 0.2 (i.e., the image is very dark), it applies a negative filter to the image (convert -negate), effectively inverting the colors (black becomes white and vice versa).

Sends the image to a printer (lp command) named MF741C-743C for printing.

Our old dishwasher and previous cats sped up the process with the one thing that kills hardwood floors.

You should try installing some good ole linoleum. We solved kitchen flooring in the 1860s but people need to install expensive floors that are worse in every way because… why exactly? I don’t know. I have hardwood floors that are 17 years old and they need to be replaced. Linoleum floors last as long as 40 years. I’m thinking of going old school.

That was a supremely enlightening explanation! I’m installing bluefin in a vbox to check it out and ordering a new SSD. Thank you!

Thank you very much for the recommendations! Out of curiosity, what are the benefits of using say bluefin over just plain fedora? I should also add that I prefer a long term support installation because I don’t reinstall very often. Thanks again

Yeah, “What the F does that mean?” Is the next line Michael says in the film Office Space 😌

What the f does that mean?

Looks like the common edition is outdated, but for the curious: https://wiki.astralinux.ru/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=37290417

How else am I supposed to put the magic smoke back in?

“You People” is the one to be avoided

It’ll be more than a day. Expect a week and be pleasantly surprised by 5 days.

If your local machine dies, and you have a backup on your phone which you cannot unlock… aren’t you screwed?

Where is the key stored?

Kinguin ftw

The social contract, and the knowledge that it isn’t acceptable and any women inside would likely scream and the man would be perceived as an attempted rapist and would face consequences.

Another vote for sublime. I’m a full stack web developer and it’s all I need. The native features and extensibility blow me away. It has so many features I’ll never use them all. Multiple cursor editing saves so much time. Really give it a chance and you’ll fall in love.

No … that’s 4k not 4kb

This is what I use, and I had totally forgotten that you could switch layouts. I switched from windows to Linux Mint Cinnamon about 12 years ago, and then to Ubuntu but I didn’t like the gnome menu. Having grown up with windows, that style of menu was what I was most comfortable with, and ArcMenu was there to fill the gap.
