  • You can also filter windows out of a screencast by choosing a special option from the pop-up menu that appears when right-clicking a window’s title bar:

    An option to hide windows from Spectacle, when recording a screencast. Admittedly I am not much of a screencast person, but its good to know in case I need it as I have some future plans. So I could have some notes or the web browser open in same virtual desktop I am recording from.

    While I am not the biggest fan of Ai (but also not the biggest hater as well, at least for local models), I think banning a topic because you don’t like it is not fair for everyone else. It is already used and part in many sections in our life, so discussing it (either if its good or bad or its pitfalls or recommendations) should be allowed. Especially in a generalized topic such as Open Source or Programming. I mean would you rather like it being silently used and lied about or make it official, and at least then you can filter out and ignore stuff about that topic?

    I mean you don’t have to participate in the Ai discussions, but you can allow others to discuss. I don’t understand why you want to ban it for everyone.


  • The data is not sent to any service (at least not without asking you). It is your private data on your private computer. Collecting information and configuration on your PC does not make it less private. A different user on the system can’t access your private data. Private means, that all your private data is not accessible by others (unless you allow to). So yes, most Linux distributions are in fact private out of the box.
