What are some simple changes you made to your life or some workflow that has improved your life a lot? (lemmy.sdf.org)
 

Or any skill that you deeply value for how it helps you, but maybe easily overlooked by an outsider?

I think exercising atleast 2-3 times a week was good for me. Not that I look much different, but I do feel a bit stronger and that is nice. Neck isometrics and bridges too. They really helped with balancing looking at mobile or PC screens.

Learning some keyboard shortcuts was nice. The major one would be Win key + Arrow keys to manage multiple open windows/apps.
Then, finding that I can add commonly used options to the QuickAccess bar in Excel, Word etc. Libreoffice would probably have similar options too.

What flag to fly? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Which are the major widely accepted/supported, progressive movements/orgs in USAmerica?
Maybe flags on that?

Have heard that decent public healthcare has been a concern in USAmerica. Are there any good orgs/movement or flags on that?

    Do you think humans can be cloned as of currently? (I mean, not just a specific part of the body but a whole human) in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
    [–] 2 points 8 months ago

    but I wouldn't be at all surprised if there were or could be cloning operations in places like Russia, China, NK and Saudi Arabia, for example.

    Would it not be more likely for it to happen in USAmerica or EU?
    Make USAmerica great folk may not have an issue of having cloned soldiers. They seem to be having Nazi saluters too

    Regarding EU, less likely to be direct, but could be a partner to USAmerican programmes like how they actively go along for USAmerican invasions

    Can you do neck isolations(moving the neck sideways while keeping the head untilted)? Was it easy for you? Or did you have to learn it? (lemmy.sdf.org)
     

    The movement where you move the neck and head to the side together, without the head tilting to one side.

    I can't move my neck like that. Been thinking about learning how to and searched up for tutorials.
    Saw this video that seemed good for people who are absolute beginners, because many others had people aleady moving their necks. Have tried it for 2 days, but neck isolation not yet possible.

    Thought about asking here to know how easy/difficult it is and how other learnt it.
    If you know any better tutorials or tips on how to learn it, please do share them.

    Also, if you learnt it easily/automatically, do you think that it's not possible for everyone?

    Thanks in advance

    Any opensource dictation(speech to text) application for windows? (lemmy.sdf.org)
     

    As an alternative for the 'Dictate' option in Word?
    I have searched for it, but most of them seem to be for Linux, Macos and Android.

    I know of Sayboard and Whisper on Android.

    I have seen whisper installation setups and have tried it, but havent't seen one that can directly dictate into other open apps.

    Are there any applications which can directly enter the dictated text into an opened word or text file? One which can directy dictate into Word or Libreoffice Writer?

    Thanks in advance.

    Do you use userscripts or other automation options like autohotkey? Which ones do you find most useful? Could you recommend some good sources(including lemmy communities) that are on the topic? (lemmy.sdf.org)
     

    Had read about them recently when looking up about bookmarklets:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Userscript

    Which userscript manager do you use? What are your opinions/advice on security of using them?

    Also, are there other similar things like bookmarklets and userscripts that regular people can start off fast?

    Are there any lemmy communities or resouces(wikis, forums, youtube channels etc) that are on the topic of simple/beginner-friendly automation and customisation?

    Thanks in advance

    Do you use Javascript bookmarklets? Which ones do you find useful? And are there similar things that would be useful to know of? (lemmy.sdf.org)
     

    Got to know of them recently. They seem very cool.
    Like, I don't have to install anything extra.

    https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/what-are-bookmarklets/
    https://bk7312.github.io/bookmarklets/

    I especially like this one that shows Id links. Useful while sharing wikipedia links:
    https://github.com/madacol/web-automation/blob/master/bookmarklets/Id%20Linker.js

    And

    This one which helps to use text fragments:
    https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62989058/how-does-text-in-url-work-to-highlight-text#answer-76131511

    Discliamer: Be careful with copy-pasting bookmarklets into your browser. Only do so if you trust it.

    Which all bookmarklets do you use, find useful?
    Please share them.

    Are there similar easy things that most people sort of easily have access to? I think Libreoffice's/Excel's record macro function would be useful for people too.

    Are there any communities for similar things, sort-of like beginner automation?

    Thanks in advance.

    Any apps for offline text translation? And offline text to speech? Is it available in your local language? (lemmy.sdf.org)
     

    Found Translate You for text translation, but it uses online services. Is there any offline app for that?

    Sayboard allows offline speech to text translation. It's quite cool.
    It supports English and seems useful.
    Was looking to see if there are models for Malayalam and other languages.

    Saw a Malayalam vosk GMM model in gitlab. Tho, it can't be imported. It seems to need a chain training model.

    Does anyone know any resources on that?
    Or any other app that can do it?

    Or is there some way using Termux or so?

    Activity Manager - Helps to make shortcuts (f-droid.org)
     

    It allows to launch exported activities from various apps and helps to create useful shortcuts

    2 examples where I find it to be quite useful:
    1. Quick Record shortcut for Audio Recorder

    It currently does not have a quick recording shortcut.
    Audio Recorder Gitlab issue where a user requests the feature. Maybe attention from someone here would be helpful?

    You can directy search for the app in Activity manager, open it and create a a shortcut for the Recording activity.

    2. Shortcut to open Android/data folder in the native Files app

    Context for the folder location I use hereFor Android 11 & onwards, you can't access the Android/data folder(without root) from regular file manager apps like Material files(awesome opensource file manager).
    The Telegram X app stores it's downloaded files in a folder there.
    Material files calls the native Android Files(not GFiles, documentsui.files) app to open the Android/data folder.
    Activity manager can be used to create a shortcut for that

    1. Search for and open the Files app in Activity Manager and choose the Launch with parameters option for the FilesActivity
    2. Action, choose ACTION_VIEW
    3. Data = content://com.android.externalstorage.documents/document/primary%3AAndroid%2Fdata%2Forg.thunderdog.challegram%2Ffiles%2Fdocuments or any other directory you like
    4. Mime type, choose vnd.android.document/directory

    You can then launch the activity with the parameter.
    This will be recorded in History(the clock sign). You can long-press the entry and create a Shortcut.

    Do you have any other cases or ideas where this would be usedul? Please do share them here.

    On a tangent, Material files allows making shortcuts to files and folders. Markor, text editor app, allows the same too.
