- 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?
Amazing how many folk don’t automatically press ctrl/s as a matter of habit in Office
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.
The Vim habit is hard to break.
:x
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 just make a copy of the file, rename it and then open it.
