Superficially, typing + seems to be the same as typing , but these are two completely different paradigms of using the editor.

Vim does not use shortcuts or hotkeys to edit the text, it uses a language to communicate with the editor.

For me, shortcuts and hotkeys are rote memorization, and I'm bad at rote memorization – compare your point "5. Ctrl-{ or } does this I think". Do I need Ctrl-left, Super-left, Alt-left, Shift-left or Ctrl-Shift-left to jump back a word?

The vim editing language is mostly consistent and logical. I did not need to memorize it, I could learn and understand it. But that's just me.

Far too much examples:

Most commands are abbreviations – a for append, b for back, c for change, d for delete, e for end of word, f for forward, g for goto (and more), hjkl are special, i for insert, m for mark, n for next, o for open line, p for paste, q for reqord macro is a strange spelling, r for replace, s for substitute, t for to, u for undo, v for visual mode, w for word, x for extinguish, y for yank, z is just a prefix for arcane stuff. Capital letters are usually variants of their minuscle counterpart – like A for append at end of line.

Commands take a repeat count, and a lot of commands take objects/movements, and these reuse the commands, like "delete inside backticks" => di`, "yank inside brackets" => yi{, "change up to third slash" => c3t/

If you are fluent in vim, you won't type shortcuts while editing, you will talk to your editor.

As for more compelling examples:

"I'd like to change the next 2 sentences" translates to )c2)

"Please format this paragraph." translates to gqap

"Swap these two characters." translates to xp

And I did not touch ex mode, vimscript and plugins yet.

Wenn man Gicht kriegen kann, kriegt man auch von Bier Gicht. Ist also eher ein Argument für die Gleichheit der gelben zuweilen schäumenden Flüssigkeiten

Only this translation is false. The correct translation is

"Cat David shows his citizen's shaft, so that he can stay with the chickens"

"His xyz-ship" is "seine xyz-schaft" in German, while "seinen xyz-schaft" is a compound word meaning "his xyz's shaft". Just a tiny almost uncomprehensibly murmured -n difference.

I don't know where this claim of 90 % reduction in symptoms originated – the figures show an improvement of e.g. Bell 60 => Bell 80 for the Post Covid group, the other scales are similar. I'm not able to analyze all of the data at the moment, but at second glance this seems to be an effective treatment, changing the scores ~ 15–30 %. Far from 90 %. And the effect might be exclusive to Covid related problems.

Edit:

Bei bis zu 90 Prozent der Betroffenen milderten sich die Symptome wie Müdigkeit, Schwindel, Schlafstörungen oder Herzrasen ab oder verschwanden sogar ganz.

The responder rate was 90 %, not the reduction of symptoms.

@wintermute@feddit.de – Inhaber von feddit.de – ist seit Monaten verschwunden und niemand weiß nix von ihm, außer dass er auf Geschäftsreisen in Asien sein soll. Daher ist kürzlich das Gerücht aufgetaucht, er sei in Nordkorea.

Nein, dass ist mir neu. Wieso sind beide Constantinuss I?

Electricity is usually not made from fuel, though, but from a wide variety of resources. And you forgot the last step – transmission of heat from the stove to the food. Gas stoves are far inferior in this step, losing most of the heat into the surtounding air. Induction stoves have almost no transmission loss.

Another reason is installation. In order to use gas in the kitchen, you have to have a gas pipe in the kitchen, which has become very unusual. During construction, it's easier and cheaper to not lay gas pipes. Most people do not have a choice – either you got an old house witha gas pipe in the kitchen or a newer one with a 400 V power outlet.

In Südamerika bauen sie tatsächlich zur Zeit überall Seilbahnstrecken für den innerstädtischen Personennahverkehr.

Seilbahnen kann man im Prinzip über jede Straße und jedes nicht allzu hohe Haus hängen, das ist nahezu überall möglich und in jedem Fall mehrere Größenordnung billiger als der Ausbau von U–Bahnen, wahrscheinlich such als der Bau neuer Schienen.

Allerdings würde das unter Berücksichtigung von Arbeits–, Umwelt–, Lärm–, Denkmal–, Gesundheits–, Bestands– und sonstger –schutze in Deutschland mehrere Jahrzehnte einschließlich mehrerer Klagen vor dem EuGH und mehrerer neu einzurichtender Bundes–, Landes–, Bezirks–, Kreis– und städtischer Ämter und Agenturen sowie einiger Gesetzesänderungen bedürfen. Somit stimme ich zu, dass dieses Projekt ein totgeborenes ist.

AFAIK, clamAV hunts Window viruses, not Linux malware. The linux equivalent I know of is rkhunter.

One issue often overlooked with prostate enlargement is Nykturia. Nykturia causes sleep deprivation, sleep deprivation causes scores of other problems from cardiac issues to psychosis. I'd say ~ 3 times getting up during the night might be tolerable for most peope, > 5 times will cause problems.

 

Context: I'm missing a cutting board. So I wrote in our telegram family group: "Wo ist eigentlich unser zweites großes Schneidebrett hin?" (literally: "Where is actually our second big cuttingboard thither?").

By using the modal particle "eigentlich" I insinuate that something is oddly off and express an emotional state of curiousity and/or mild discontent.

By adding "hin", I notify that I ask because it is not where it is supposed to be and not because I don't know where it should be.

Now I ask myself, how would I express this additional information in English?


Edit: Thank you all for your answers! I learned a lot. Just our cutting board is still gone, and probably enjoying it's freedom somewhere ... I suppose.

 

Yesterday was a strange day. Until noon I was well as usual – 90 % on my new, cfs adapted wellbeing rating (would have been 45 % pre-cfs...). So, great day! Then I started to decline. fled work at 14:45. Was barely able to reach home. rested. watched a movie with the very discerning feeling I might overexert me by watching. Went to bed at 20:00, sleeping well using my night medication, waking after 9 h, feeling ok-ish, resting a bit more, wondering what caused this crash – well, it didn't really feel like a crash, should feel worse the next day if it was a crash. Strange. Getting up. Preparing coffee. deciding to apply my crash medication. So – 10 mg prednisolon in Wednesday medication. 5 in Thursday's – wait. Yesterday was Wednesday, wasn't it' I'm pretty sure about that. So why is Wednesday still full?

TL;DR

forgot to take medication yesterday, experienced it's worth anew.

 

@BarqsHasBite@lemmy.world's idea to share treatments that seemed to have worked for us is a good idea.

So – here is my recipe:

  1. Acceptance of CFS and commitment to my new live.

  2. feeding my mitochondria dayly with Ribose (~ 2 x 5g), Carnitine (2 x 1 g), Magnesium (400 mg), Ubichinole (200 mg) and some B-Vitamine. I'm taking a combination substitute and forgot which one is important for mitochondrial function.

  3. supporting my hormones by taking L-Thyroxin 50 μg and Prednisolon 1.25 mg. Probably a pinch of Testosterone would be helpful, too.

  4. Fighting POTS with 2.4 mg Bisoprolol and compression stockings, if it's bad.

  5. Intensive aerobic training (aka pacing). At my lowest point, I bought a heart rate sensor to start aerobic training as outlined in the r/cfs wiki. I found out that walking in my appartement already triggered heart rates indicative of anaerobic metabolism. I had to slow down quite a bit for my body to become able to start regenerating.

  6. Using a script/app to log my activities and remind me of taking breaks.

  7. Qi Gong, tuned down to current state. The avarage Youtube video is too much for severe to medium CFS – I reduce repetitions and simplify the forms when I'm down.

  8. Yin Yoga (or probably any other form of passive stretching. During Reha they prefered Fascia Training, which is good technique but imho too strenuous for medium to severe CFS).

  9. 75 μg Clonidine and 1.75 mg Zopiclone when I'm not able to sleep.

  10. 300 – 2 x 600 mg NAC when I'm wired but tired – haven't found my dose yet.

  11. For me, Binaural Beats work very well for this wired but tired state as well. I just feel uncomfortable using ear plugs and my tinnitus gets louder as well.

  12. All sorts of guided relaxation. Youtube is a treasure trove. When I'm down, I can't guide myself to deep relaxation.

  13. 5–10 mg Prednisolone and 75 μg L-Thyroxine instead of 50 μg when I'm aware of an imminent crash for 3 days.

After 9 month, I was able to start 2 h/4 days work again, and after 8 more months (and several crashes) I was back to full time and ~ 60 % work load. After 3 month full time/60 % work load I know that I will not be able to work with a full work load any time soon (nor presumably ever again).

 

A lot of bacteria, including those which cause tooth decay, will die if they absorb xylose, which they will happily do due to xylose's resemblance of glucose, their favourite food.

Xylose is non toxic to humans and used as a calory-reduced sweetener (we're only able to get ~half of the calories off it compared to glucose).

So, snacking on half a teaspoon of sweet xylose after brushing your teeth might feel strange at first (like snacking on pure sugar), but you'll enjoy clean teeth far longer! Until your next encouter with "real" sugar.

 

Wir waren gestern im Ruhrgebiet unterwegs, und waren völlig überrascht, wie wenig E-Nummernschilder unterwegs waren.

Ich war dann heute mal autofahrenderweise in der Stadt unterwegs (im provinziellen Franken) und hab' versucht, Autos zu zählen soweit der Verkehr das zuließ. 18 E-Autos vs 220 Verbrenner.

Ist hier ein Nest, oder haben wir gestern einfach nicht richtig aufgepasst?
