I'd recommend Cheese (e.g.: apt install cheese) since it requires virtually no setup to start recording video and photos.

Open Broadcasting Software (OBS) also works for this purpose, but requires more setup, generally.

GIMP feels like it's still in the stage of being extremely powerful but awkward as heck to wield, like Blender used to be. Blender used to have a pretty unintuitive interface before getting a massive overhaul a few years back. GIMP could use a similar facelift IMO.

I think I was fairly slow before learning home row typing. I just hunt-and-pecked whenever using a keyboard. We got our first computer some time around 1998, so I was introduced to computers a few years prior to taking the typing class.

Just a standard QWERTY layout. Nothing fancy.

I took one typing class in 8th grade and became faster than 99% of typists. Can sustain about 145wpm for a typical paragraph of text, but can burst up to 200wpm for shorter, simple bits of text.

Not a particularly marketable superpower in this day and age, but is a fun flex once in a while at the office.

Depends on what you're trying to do with the webcam.

If you just want to take pictures and videos, you can use Cheese.

If you want the webcam to be accessible to other devices on your network so you can view it remotely, you can use Motion (requires a small amount of configuration, but afterward it Just Works)

A citizen killing another citizen is never morally defensible

That's just plain not true. There are situations that are not just morally defensible, but legally justifiable.

For example: If an active shooter (a citizen) is killing people (or threatening to kill people), any given citizen is morally and legally justified with taking the shooter's life to preserve the lives of others.

See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_of_self-defense

Thanks for the link. My first question was, "What brand, what item?"

Per the FDA, the recalled item is Cabot Creamery Extra Creamy Premium Butter, Sea Salted. The butter, which is sold in 8-ounce packages, contains two sticks of butter in a cardboard box.

Kinda surprised to hear that, but it's good to see it officially supported.

Still wish the game wasn't gonna have kernel level anticheat from some relatively unknown developer.
