I just found out that bone conduction headphones exist, and I’m admittedly intrigued.
I usually wear only one earbud because I like to still be able to hear my surroundings (transparency mode doesn’t feel the same to me). My husband feels similarly and also hates the feeling of in-ear buds. So a pair of two of these might work nicely for us.
Does anyone have any
handsheads on experience with them (any make/model)?Would you recommend them?
How is the sound quality?
Are they comfortable to wear?
How do they compare to standard headphones?

Thought this was neat. Wanted to share.
Thanks @spicyq. It turns out Emacs does have this feature built-in (via Org-mode) with the commands
org-increase-number-at-pointandorg-decrease-number-at-point.The commands:
- Work in any mode, not just
org-mode - Support prefix arguments with
C-u - Do not have a default keybind
I bound the commands to
C-z <up>andC-z <down>, since I had previously unboundsuspend-framefromC-z:(keymap-global-unset "C-z" 'remove) ; suspend-frameKeep in mind you can repeat your last executed command with
C-x z(and then just keep pressingzto repeat the command however many times you want).Of course, now that I've got this far, I'm realizing that typing out either
C-u 10 C-z <up>orC-z <up> C-x z+z* 9 is probably a lot more keystrokes than just changing the number myself. (At least for a single number at a single point in the buffer.)I don't think there is a built-in Emacs feature that does the same thing. You can find several custom Emacs Lisp solutions by searching online though.21 votes - Work in any mode, not just

Looking for some cat advice
Caveat: I'm following up with my vet for most of this, but she's newer and is having to do a lot of consulting with other vets in the practice. Info: I have three cats, adult female - Nova, 13ish?...
Caveat: I'm following up with my vet for most of this, but she's newer and is having to do a lot of consulting with other vets in the practice.
Info: I have three cats,
- adult female - Nova, 13ish?
- adult male, Pippin 3ish
- male kitten - Fig 5 months (he's very sneaky)
Ok so, my girl Nova has been diagnosed with diabetes. This has entirely upended our feeding schedule and she's not coping well with it. We'd previously used some automatic feeders that dropped food 6 times a day, because she would stress out about not having food and then overeat and would throw up in both scenarios. But now all three cats are on different food (all kibble), and at least Nova would prefer to eat any food but her own, or have seconds, but the others would too if left to it. So they're being fed in different rooms at the same time.
Nova is ravenous, aggressively trying to drag her bowl out of my hands, headbutting the tub of her food (she caught it loose once) across the floor, running to the other bowls in case there's CC. food left once they're separated. She just dove for one as I was trying to just let a cat out of the room instead of pick the bowl up. She's always under my feet in a way that she used to be good about avoiding. I've stepped on her several times, and hurt my ankle and wrist last night catching myself.
Any suggestions for the perpetually (thinks she's) starving cat? I just got her a glucometer and am figuring it out but haven't been taught how to adjust her insulin as of yet.
Part of the difficulty here, and another area I need solutions in, is that she'll (mostly) inadvertently scratch my partner's leg when she wants his attention usually to be fed. I think occasionally it's intentional but he uses a wheelchair and mostly can't feel the leg - a cut can be dangerous for him, but also sometimes the touch/pain sets his leg off in a spasm cycle that is incredibly painful. On a bad day he's feeling guilty for how angry he is at her and is afraid he'll hit her (he probably wouldn't, but he doesn't have the control to say intentionally tumble her like a mama cat to a kitten, and she would probably claw or bite if he tried plus she's been sick and he's already afraid of hurting all the cats with the chair.) he's done the spray bottle thing in the past, she likes water and we know it's not ideal, but it's usually something that happens when he's not looking or can't see or hear her til she gets him.
Finally I need a better storage method for the food. Something she can't headbutt open or into dropping food, but that I can leave out in an open space. Currently I have a bag in a bathroom vanity, a tub of the Rx food in a spare room, and a bag in a closet. They have torn the bags open in the past (working together as a team, I suspect) when they're not secured.
I've thought about the microchip feeders but the youngest isn't chipped yet and frankly they're really expensive.Summary of Asks:
- Help with a diabetic cat who's perpetually starving
- Help with getting a cat to stop scratching a human's leg who can't see it coming (addressing the first might help)
- Help with ideas for cat food storage/dispensing that would be more accessible than 3 bags in 3 closets in 3 rooms, two of which my partner can't access.
Bit of a vent here too, just everything is expensive right now too so I'm trying the best I can. Pics added.

I have recently found myself wanting to learn to draw. I have very minimal visual arts skills, and feel much more comfortable with a musical instrument than a sketchbook. I would like to change that, not to become some exceptional artist or anything, but because I like the idea of being able to just sketch and draw and doodle in my spare time.
I have an iPad, Apple Pencil, and ProCreate, but I don't really know where to begin. I would be most likely learning to use ProCreate at the same time as learning to draw, although I don't know if that's a bad idea or not.
Are there books, online courses, YouTube videos that you would recommend for a complete beginner?
