  • ydotool is missing a lot of features. It emulates an input device, so it can only send inputs to the active window. xdotool can send keystrokes to non-active windows, and has features for searching for a window to send to. xdotool can minimize, dismiss, or move windows around.

    I’m aware of newton. It’s a work in progress, though, and doesn’t have as many features as X11 accessibility has. Although it might have enough features eventually, I worry that X11 will be deprecated by operating system vendors before that.

    Watch out for scams, as most of them probably are. Ideally, you could look for one operated by a known bank. Crypto .com looks like a scam to me.

    Coinbase used to be considered legitimate, but I’m not sure if it still is.

    Sorry I don’t have anything more concrete. I don’t think a lot of people on Lemmy use cryptocurrency.

    Most things worth buying are probably available with cash or credit card.







  • I’ve done this with Debian before, and it works fine. Linux usually mounts the root filesystem based on its UUID, so it doesn’t matter if changing the motherboard caused a change from /dev/sda to /dev/sdb .

    If you use the proprietary Nvidia driver, make sure to update it to a version that supports the new video card. If you use the open source Nvidia driver, you should be fine even if it’s old, because it will at least support starting up in an unaccelerated mode.
