Documents the PowerMizer CLI for potential cron jobs, etc.
Because PowerMizer settings in NVIDIA X Server Settings doesn't persist across sessions,
attempts to overclock can become a nuisance.
The following documents the three CLI settings to modify the Preferred Mode as desired:
# Auto:
nvidia-settings -a [gpu:0]/GPUPowerMizerMode=2
# Adaptive:
nvidia-settings -a [gpu:0]/GPUPowerMizerMode=0

Minecraft Right and Mouse button (held down) loops
/* Ctrl+Right Mouse button loops holding down Right Mouse button until either W or S are pressed.
Useful with certain boring Minecraft activities that have a person standing still and holding Right Mouse
for extended periods. Moving forward or backwards (W or S respectively) will stop the loop.
Replacing "RButton" with "LButton" will change Right Mouse held down with Left Mouse.
