    Why Kali

    At least 50% of the time, they don't even post in the right section of the forum. They're sure as heck not going to read the warnings. Coincidentally, they're also not going to read the documentation. It can be a waste of time to try to help them and I can understand people who value their...

    Need help installing Kali Linux

    "They say goldfish have no memory. I guess their lives are much like mine. And the little plastic castle Is a surprise every time. And it's hard to say if they're happy, But they don't seem much to mind."

    Today's article isn't going to apply to many of you...

    Then it might not work with those, thanks. I saw no reference to OCR in the man pages, so I'll assume that's not an option. (It was just this moment that I learned what 'flattened' meant in regards to PDF, so thanks again.) Given your history, I'll err on the side of you being correct.

    If you can do the former, you can probably do the latter! I, for one, look forward to your GitHub repository.

    Why Kali

    We've tried about all the means out there. This doesn't stop them. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink... Odds are that they usually won't listen. Well, not until they finally give up on Kali and return to Windows... We've tried that too. Some of us make a habit out...

    I've Come A Long Way Baby!!!

    ^THIS Of course, I'm of the belief that this should be the case no matter what. Many people seem to think that graduating (from high school or university) is the end of their learning. Really, it's just the beginning. This is as true with Linux as it is with many other subjects.

    Why Kali

    They want to be 'elite hackers', something glorified in certain geeky spheres. I don't think that they understand that mastery requires proficiency in the basic tools before moving to advanced tools. You should know how to use a tape measure before using a table saw, for example. They're under...

    You should probably learn how to use Linux before you move to Kali! ;)

    Today's article only applies if you use Terminator...

    Terminator is one of my favorite terminal emulators. It's one that I use often and I like it so much that I decided to write another article about it. This time around, we're covering plugins. Terminator supports third-party plugins. Some of them are included, so you only need to enable them...

    I'm not actually sure what a 'flattened' PDF is, so I can't speculate. You can remove passwords easily enough. I actually recently shared an article about how you can brute force PDF passwords.

    Yes. Maybe and yes - after you remove the password.

    Today's article isn't going to apply to many of you...

    Oh, good point. I hadn't even thought of that use. It's pretty easy to convert and then use cat, or even Vi/Nano if you want to edit it. I haven't played with Qubes in a long time.

    Today's article isn't going to apply to many of you...

    Today we simply convert PDF to text. This is an easy process in the terminal but not something most folks are going to do. After all, one of the things about PDF is that whole F thing. They quite like the formatting. https://linux-tips.us/turn-pdf-into-text/ Still, there are a few reasons why...

    Software & Updates crashes on Kali Linux

    To Snap or De-Snap!

    I would expect a project of this size to have teething issues. They've really only been ramped up for a few years - and scammers are clever people. I'm largely indifferent with regard to where my software comes from. Snaps are reasonably popular with developers because they (in theory) only...
