Include daemon processes in the display

In the case of Linux, there are processes that run specifically for system maintenance without the need to give any instructions.
These processes are called daemons, and they wait until there is a request from the user, and when there is a request, they create a new process and execute the process.
The process created here is called a child process, and if it is set to run at a certain date and time in advance, it will execute the reserved process at the reserved date and time.
Basically, these daemons are executed according to the user's settings, but some of them are default (standard) settings. Since these daemons are not operated by the user in a control terminal such as a console or terminal emulator, they will not be displayed in the control terminal when the ps command is executed, but you can display these processes by adding the option "-x".
