Today I learned that:

CTRL + SHIFT + V

Results in:

Pasting without formatting

I've kept a Notepad open for over a decade just to quickly transfer data without formatting or styling. smh. Efficiency-wise, I've got an MMO mouse (a dozen programmable side buttons, brilliantly useful!) that I use for keyboard shortcuts & macros I use on a regular basis & just bound this sequence into a button.

The hours I've wasted over the years lol.
 
Way back when Windows 95 (ver A) first came out I was a PC World subscriber and received a PC World mouse-pad as a promo with said subscription that had all the cool keyboard tricks listed on it!

It's now framed and hanging on my wall! 🙂

We all have our traps! I call these "Productivity Sedatives". Screens are especially powerful because it's all too easy to stare into the void for hours on end watching shows, going down wikipedia & youtube rabbit holes, and doing the "endless scroll on social media".

I only got TikTok a month ago & have already surpassed 1,000 subscriptions. I avoided it forever & then discovered that 1-minute videos are like crack for my brain lol. People get straight to the point with stuff like recipes, home repairs, comedy, etc. I'm pretty sure I learned more from TikTok in four weeks than I did in the entirety of college lol.

Like this avocado seed hack - I have a friend who is a nurse & sees people with cut hands all the time because they try to be macho & end up ruining their hand because the knife slipped trying to get the seed out:


My turning point for realizing that productivity sedatives exist was when I stayed up until one or two in the morning a couple years ago watching the primitive fishing channel. After a long day & a few hours zoning out on youtube I kind of snapped out of it & was like what am I doing with my life lol:

 
don't you just cut a circumference to the core of the avocado and twist?

as to the trap, how do you tell snake from fish in there lol.

Binance is no longer operating in the U.S. You have to use Binance.us. Something about a lawsuit or something. Seems like I can still log in and see my crypto account even though I'm in the U.S. and using a U.S. IP.

It makes me nervous that all of the people in those videos just put their bare hands into murky waters lol. I got bit by a catfish once & bled like crazy, so I'm not too keen on not using fishing gloves now haha
 
Today, I learned that the 'Boost' standard for mountain bikes doesn't apply only to the wheel hub and dropout widths. It also applies to the crankset spindle length, which I don't have enough spacers for. Now it gets returned for exchange lol.
