Can it do screenshots at more than 2 fps? (been trying to resurrect an old fishing script for minecraft, and between grim saying no, gnome-screenshot busy being dead, and pipewire being a inscrutable mess, I really have no idea how to send a screen capture fast enough for opencv. Also spectacle tend to drown the terminal with its pride at having found tesseract, no idea why it requires it though...)

(For anyone curious: pipewire-capture for python is a bit of a badly documented mess but avoid dealing with Dbus to configure a screencast and grab frames of it as a screenshot. I easily managed 30+fps that way.)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
