    Good for you! Could you share the name of that particular test here? I'm confident I'm clear but might want to include that test in case I need to in the future.

    I don't think homebrew allows throttling bandwidth but it does let you set maximum concurrent downloads though. I believe the default is twice number of cores; you must have quite …

    Neo/vim does this with community and built-in “text objects”. https://neovim.io/doc/user/usr_04/#_text-objects

    Using mouthwash every time is not ideal because most mouthwashes disrupt your oral microbiome which will result in undesired side-effects like teeth staining etc.
