How to reset PATH, cant use pip3 or pip

I think i messed up my raspberry pi. I cant use pip3 it keeps saying this when i try to install anything:

`"bash: /usr/local/bin/pip3: No such file or directory"`

​

When i do $PATH i get back:

`"/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games"`

​

When i do "which pip","which pip3", "which python", "which python3", i get back:

`"/usr/bin/pip"`

`"/usr/bin/pip3"`

`"/usr/bin/python"`

`"/usr/bin/python3"`

​

So im wondering, should i chnage PATH to /usr/bin/ ? how do i fix this?

I wrote a free book about the Unix terminal

On Christmas 2019 I published on Leanpub a free book, "Beginner's Guide to the Unix Terminal". The book is not complete, but there are enough chapters to be a useful introduction to anyone doesn't know anything about the Unix command line and wants to learn.

The book is structured as a series of short lessons that can be read in 20-30 minutes (including exercises).

You can find it here: https://leanpub.com/beginners-guide-to-the-unix-terminal

The book is free, but if you want to contribute I will definitely appreciate the help. I know there are many resources available for beginners but I think it is always useful to try to give another take on the subject.

I hope you will enjoy the book! Please spread the news on your favourite social network.

How does password manager rechecks the password as salt value is random?

I am relatively new to LINUX, so I am having trouble understanding one concept related to pass in LINUX.

I learnt that UNIX stores my passwords by hashing it, and storing along with the randomly generated salt value.

\`Salt value is nothing but a random data that's generated to combine with the original password, inorder to increase the strength of the hash. \`

So now lets say I want to login again using my password, the manager calculates the hash but from where will it bring the same salt for checking the result with the password database?

Looking for distribution with Mac-like enviroment

Hi guys! I am using Ubuntu right now but I want to switch to a new distribution because I think I am over it. I enjoy using gnome but it's all buggy. Multiple desktops, touchpad gestures, activities, dock and top bar. I customized it and it seems a bit like MacOS.
I am looking for new distr but I am not sure what DE I can use instead of gnome which would keep these features. For example I tried Mint with Cinnamon and it looks too much like Windows, I cant use activities and switch desktops etc. Manjaro looks cool but I am not sure if I am ready to switch from debian based.


Thank you for your advice!

Show me your neofetch

I'm in the process of switching from Windows to Linux (at long last) and I wanna get some inspiration from fellow Linux users on what WM/theme/font/etc they're running. I know, I know; I should get the thing I'm most comfortable with, but like I said, just some inspiration ;)

[REQUEST] a short write up on kernel development for newbie kernel developers

I’d like to learn how to write code for the Linux kernel, but I can’t find any straightforward books on kernel development, could someone do a write up on developing for the Linux kernel, with notes on the different parts of the kernel? Something short and to the point

My goal is to learn the Linux kernel in and out and distribute atleast one patch with comments for newbies, someone else can do it

I like to believe we’ll documented source code is a godsend

Encryption for cloud storage: how stable is CryFS?

I will soon bid farewell to Windows and transition to Linux, so I am looking for replacements for everything I am currently using. On the encryption side, I am tempted to keep using Cryptomator as it's been serving me well in conjunction with Google Drive, but I was reading about CryFS and I really like how they hide metadata as well.

[https://www.cryfs.org/comparison/](https://www.cryfs.org/comparison/)

But it has a weak point.

>The current version is not considered stable yet by the developers and if you decide to use it, regular backups are strongly recommended. It has gotten quite a bit more stable recently though and is successfully used in a lot of settings already.

If you have been using it, can you report on its stability? What about Cryptomator on Linux, is it working well?

Thanks in advance.
