The advice is meant generally as a matter of having a habit of listening and considering before speaking. This has nothing to do with being able to handle a debate partner. Prudence is assumed here, as always.
(W.r.t. Trump, I would not say his style is "designed", even if it is exploited. As a New Yorker, his pauses are conventionally short relative to those used in other regions of the US such that someone from some place like Texas, where pauses are longer, may not be able to catch the pause in time or even discern the pause at all. So his interlocutor must realize that this is the case and respond accordingly.)
There's another way to "lose" accounts that's a bit more likely depending on
your circumstances. I had set up a google account for my kid, so we could lock
down the old tablet we let him poke at. I was happy that I had managed to get
him his firstname.lastname gmail address in the process.
However recently the family moved to a new country. This basically isn't
something google lets you do with a family group, and until you change your
play store country, your play
store won't have the local variants of a lot of apps, so you can't install them.
You have to delete your family group, change country then recreate it. But you
can't delete a family group with a child account. The only thing you can do is
delete the child account. The help docs mention being able to restore it, but
that didn't work, it just said it couldn't be restored. And since google doesn't allow an email address to ever be
recycled once it's deleted, I forever locked my kid out of possibly having his
firstname.lastname gmail address. Very frustrating.
I have a website hosted there, and manually renew a let's encrypt cert for custom domain pointing to it every few months. Unfortunately this involves removing and re-adding the custom domain.
I got a notification the cert was going to expire soon so I went through my usual renewal process, only to get redirected to the linked post from the new domain button immediately after deleting the custom domain. So the custom domain now 404s which is the last thing I would have wanted.
I'd strongly suggest a warning get attached to the delete domain custom domain button, or something similar, until this is fixed.
It involves using "certbot certonly -a manual" with a bunch of other flags on the command line (well in a script really), create the file it asks for and let it generate a new key.
Gitlab pages only lets you add cert/key details at the point you add the domain (afaik anyway), so you need to delete it and re-add it with the renewed key. It's tedious enough, but it's really only the last step that needs to be done manually.
At least when using the web interface, you need to delete the domain and then re-add it. I'm not sure if there is an alternate option via an API, never looked into it.
I think rather than overriding your control key, it's overriding scrolling. It loads up some smoothscroll javascript, and there's likely a bug someplace that's interfering with the ability to zoom. Holding control and pressing +/- to zoom in/out should still work.
Oh man, think long
before talk escapes your mouth.
Speak thoughtfully, without anger and hatred,
thus you will succeed all the better.
Listening quickly and answering slowly,
considering things carefully, that is how wise men live.
Through talk many have been overcome,
in silence few have been found dishonourable.
There is no better protection from dishonour
than being the master of your tongue.
