Exactly the same experience and feeling for me. Taught myself how to solve the cube during the pandemic but now all I know how to do is solve a cube in a specific order.

It takes the same amount of time every time and it doesn't actually feel like I'm solving it but instead putting it back to its original state.

It's a shame that the GIMP and Audacity books are in every bundle.

I have yet to use or have the need to use either of those but to have them featured here as a Linux bundle is strange.

There's a similar story on the reply-all podcast about a group trying to take a woman's Snap Chat handle because it was Lizard.

After reading Practical Vim by Drew Neil I went to his site to check out what else he has. Well he's selling a course that looked like the majority of what he's covered in the book. When I saw the $150 price tag I couldn't believe my eyes.

I left the site and bought his other Vim book instead.

How many times have you pasted this as a reply?

What are you doing, <C-r><C-p>0 ??

Can you give me a synopsis of the 35 minute part 1 video as well?

I’d have to watch it to do that.

Is halfstep and whole steps common academic practice?

Not being from the US I was always taught with semitones and tones. Whenever I saw YouTube videos with half steps and whole steps I thought they were dumbing down for the audience.

Half step and whole step is really standard in US. I spent my entire childhood studying instruments, but I don't think I saw the "semitone" nomenclature until I started studying music theory directly in high school.

aren't they synonymous (at least in a 12-tet system)?

a tone is whole step. a semitone is a half step.

It's basically a British/American vernacular difference. They're the same thing.

Sort of like semi/hemi/demi quavers and the like versus whole/half/quarter notes

I’ve lived in the US for my entire life and do lots of music production. I never use half step or whole step. I tend to refer to things in terms of semitones or intervals (3rd, 5th, octave, etc).

I thought half step, whole step was a grade school thing mostly. But I really wouldn’t blink at either style, it’s all the same to me.

This was one of the features I was actually sad to see go when I updated Firefox.

I used this feature a lot as it was mainly manuals that I was saving.

They also replaced the default start page to be Collections instead of bookmarks, which b of course for me was empty.

I think I've got used to the new layout that I probably won't downgrade just for the offline capabilities.
