What are things that you(know/do) think would be useful for others(saves time, improves quality) if they also knew/did it too?

Is there a foss client for it?
Or any way to use it via the website for a person who does not know Chinese?

You know there's homeless people and slaves in China, right? I mean, obviously there is in America too, just making sure we're clear here.

Sorry. I don’t know anything like that. The creator of TapRoot method used to provide newsletters talking about how/why he developed it, advantages over other methods, etc.

But I don’t know if he still does.

My limited experience beginning with having never having been in any gym, ever, until my 40s:

Most adults that are regularly working out in the gym judge the beginners as courageous. They want to teach and encourage them. But, social norms won't let them until solicited. If a beginner has also the courage to communicate sincerely then they're likely to find both physiological and psychological support for their personal goals.

This is generally true for most things. Create the opportunity and almost everyone will teach and love as is practical for them.

Rhythm is as much a communicator as language.

One can look at an object, look away, look back at it and the rhythm can dictate whether that's comic, tragic, neutral, interesting, disgusting, valuable...

Being aware of the rhythm in which one presents something can make your intended message clearer.

If one wanted to study it, one would take a class in Michael Chekov, Rudolph Laban, Kabuki or traditional mask theatre.

The hose at the petrol station reaches the opposite side of most cars if you park with your rear window in line with the pump.

If you need to clean your stove around/under the burners, the top part of your stove probably lifts up for that exact purpose.

Almost all the reasons I hear for not going to therapy don't apply to holistic therapy, only the medical approach.

Find a humanistic therapist if you want someone to support you rather than fix you.

Additional suggestions for pc/laptop

ffmpeg for audio and video
pdftk for pdf

Used these for simple tasks, eg cropping/converting movie formats, taking out/combining pdf pages. Both are fast and light and havent failed (so far).

culture shock of seeing China having solved all necessities of a civilized society

Except for basic human rights concepts like freedom of speech, right?

[pebbles@sh.itjust.works]

I really like this. Humans are generally kind.

Thank you

I'm brown. Yesterday, I was moving into a new place and asked a Trump-hat wearing,
ex-military boomer what day was trash day. He gave me an explanation of all the good and bad of the neighborhood, told me to use his trash bin this week, and invited my wife and I to dinner. When we showed up his wife asked why we didn't bring our dog because he's a member of our family.

Many things I thought I understood about others have recently been nuked by experiences.

For fitness:

The absolute "best exercise" for someone to do is whatever they find enjoyable/fun, baring some sports, etc, that are harmful to your joints and/or brain (like American football). Fitness is about long term, sustainable effort. Some strict program that follows all the best science isn't going to help you in the long term if you don't stay consistent with it.

As long as you are either creating forceful muscle exertions or getting your heart rate up (preferably both), and it's an activity you can stick with, you are good to go.

It's similar with diet. Whatever you can consistently do to hit reasonable macros, with a nice bit of fiber and minimal junk, go for it. People might tell you that it's better to get 100% of your protein from meals rather than having protein shakes, but for a lot of people, going without that protein shake will just end up with them undershooting their protein needs.

That's awesome. I have a lot of conservative family and none of them are hateful to people in front of them. They are generally very caring and kind.

From my perspective they are told to fear groups to the point of hating them. Its not rooted in any of their experiences, not originally. So, just like you, given concrete evidence they change.

I'll share a little more awesome, then.

My wife and I rented a rental property using a process where neither the landlord or ourselves used a computer. We saw it advertised in the local weekly newspaper, drove by, and the landlord was cleaning. She hadn't advertised anywhere else. She asked about criminal history and jobs. But, she didn't perform background or credit checks. Only after we signed the lease did she ask to take pictures of our government-issued identification.

You're right, it's not perfect over there for sure.
