Copy and paste with VIM across instances, SSH-borders, different clipboards Use registers for copying and pasting WITHIN one vim instance

Vim saves text in registers. Selecting text and pressing y copies (yanks) text into a register, and pressing p pastes (puts) it.

You can see the register contents with :reg.

Named registers: there are named registers a-z.

Typing "ay will yank the current selection into named register a, and typing "ap will paste text from named register a.

There is a sensitive document. Credit card statements. Reimbursement.

I want to redact (hide) parts of the document.

Create a pitch black highlighter pen in Okular. Highlight the relevant text in black.
The text is still there and can easily be seen, for example by highlighting (in the sense of Ctrl-A) the entire document.
To flatten = actually remove the text beneath the black highlights:

pdf2ps in.pdf - | ps2pdf - out.pdf

Google Hacks: Gmail, Docs

You can bookmark individual emails. The bookmarks are persistent, apparently indefinitely (works for me with bookmarks made several years ago).

conda adds an uncalled for (base) before my PS1 prompt. Most solutions suggest to edit the .condarc file. This did not work for me. Instead:

conda config --set auto_activate_base False

	sudo ip link set dev enp0s1 down
	sudo ip link set dev enp0s1 up

	# When the clock gets out of sync
	sudo service ntp stop
	sudo ntpd -gq
	sudo service ntp start

	Clipping masks. Deleting an object deletes random objects scattered throughout b.c they are connected thru the clipping mask. I do not want this.
