GIMP plugins are great but a bit hacky to install. Even for famous plugins such as Resynthesizer (which contains the super useful heal selection tool), the documentation recommends to download and copy-paste Python files into the installation directory. I installed GIMP as a Flatpak through the Software Center on Ubuntu. I had a pleasant surprise: a selection of plugins is available for one-click install. This functionality was mentionned nowhere in the documentation, since it came out in a recent release....

After installing Rust and configuring the Rust Language Server on VS Code, I wanted to run the tests directly from my IDE instead of typing cargo test in my terminal. However I was getting the following error: > Executing task: cargo test -- --nocapture test_fn < zsh:1: command not found: cargo The terminal process "/usr/bin/zsh '-c', 'cargo test -- --nocapture test_hex_to_u8'" failed to launch (exit code: 127). Terminal will be reused by tasks, press any key to close it....

The usual way to describe a resource with kubectl is to call it by its name and namespace. For example, $ kubectl get pod gke-metadata-server-qqmt6 -n kube-system NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE gke-metadata-server-qqmt6 1/1 Running 0 31h To get two resources, one can simply type both names at once. However for large number of resources, it is more convenient to provide a file containing a list of resources. This is the role of the option -f for describe or get....

TLDR; curl ifconfig.co This website, ifconfig.co, is pretty neat and useful when you play with VPNs and SSH. You can have a more detailed output with http ifconfig.co/json.

TLDR; sudo tail -f /var/log/ufw.log The following applies to an Ubuntu server. The log files are usually in /var/log, list them with: sudo ls -l /var/log/ufw* It should return a list of log files like the following. The oldest ones are compressed: -rw-r----- 1 syslog adm 1383548 May 18 12:42 /var/log/ufw.log -rw-r----- 1 syslog adm 6492572 May 17 06:24 /var/log/ufw.log.1 -rw-r----- 1 syslog adm 1270159 May 11 06:24 /var/log/ufw.log.2.gz -rw-r----- 1 syslog adm 1459552 May 3 06:25 /var/log/ufw....

The Brew install did not work for me, so here is how to install the Graphviz backend with MacPorts. Install XCode. The complete AppStore version is not necessary: you can simply install the command line tools with xcode-select —install and click on ‘Install’ in the window that opens (if it is not already installed). Install MacPorts. There is a pkg installer for Catalina. In a new terminal, run sudo port -v selfupdate and then sudo port install graphviz If MacPorts returns with errors, you might have to fix some ports: sudo port -f activate xorg-xorgproto sudo port -f activate xorg-libX11 sudo port select --set python python38 If you use the Python API for Graphviz, you can run pip install graphviz in your dedicated environment, and import graphviz in your code....
