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.

If you are in academia and have a lot of pdf of papers, a good way to organize them is just renaming it in the following format

[AUTHORS LIST]_[DATE]_[TITLE OF THE PAPER].pdf

This will help you group papers by same team and sort by as they were published.

Wouldn't it be better to have folders instead? With tree, find and grep, searching gets a lot easier.
