• I have recently started using RSS feeds to get news and other information. It is quite time-saving.
  • Recently found out that word could open pdfs for edits. Used to upload pdfs to websites to get it converted into some editable format. I think Libreoffice can do the same.
  • Got that spinning type of mop and mopping has become a bit easier.

    Indeed.

    On windows, there’s the three finger Maximise and Minimise along with the alt + tab equivalent swipe, which I think is not really popular among many. Laptop users could save some time with that.

    Any rare/useful shortcuts that you like/would teach others?

        If your PC is in another language, that shortcut gets changed. For example, in spanish it’s Ctrl+G (G from Guardar, I assume). It may seem intuitive, but not every app follows this change. It’s also way more difficult to hit with one hand, as the G is further from Ctrl than the S. Localized shortcuts are a thing I never understood about Windows, and I hated it while I used it.

        After that I swithed to Linux, and I’ve been using NeoVim for a few years now. Instead of Ctrl+S I now compulsively [esc]:w[return], which, now that I think of it, may be even worse.

        Had to break myself of this habit as I often edit a files that need to stay the same and then saved as a different name. I know I could just save it as a different name at the start but whatever, right?

          I would definitely save it under a new name at the start because I’d totally accidentally save it without renaming at some point if I didn’t.

      I hate it when I accidentally use the three finger thing when I’m two fingering around on a blueprint. I tried to use it and it works fine to minimize everything but it doesn’t seem to bring things back up in order so it messes with my alt tab. Useless to me.
