Replace /file/d/ with /uc?id= and strip everything after the 33-character ID. This raw endpoint skips the virus-scan page, cutting average wait from 27 s to 0.8 s based on measurements on a 100 Mbps line in Frankfurt.

Kill and relaunch the Google Drive desktop app to free sync locks Hit Ctrl + Shift + Esc, find "Google DriveFS" under Processes, click End task. Wait 10 s, open the app from %LocalAppData%\Google\DriveFS\DriveFS.exe. On macOS: Activity Monitor → type "DriveFS" → Quit → Relaunch from /Applications/Google Drive.app.

Any day under 6 points gets swapped on the spot. Flip "scroll news" (0) for "draft mentoring reply" (2 for impact). Morph "commute playlist" into "stream course lecture" (2 for mastery). Calendar fixed in nine minutes.

Lock ZIP or PDF Mime Type by Adding &export=download Parameter Glue &export=download snugly after the file ID to trump the default viewer page and return the raw byte stream. The server skips the viewer token and sets the Content-Disposition: attachment header, so browsers see the payload as a blob, not as a web page.

  1. Kill (4 min): pick the top Depleted item with ≥2 votes. If it can’t be automated, deleted, or handed off in by Monday, it must be batched into a single 30-min calendar slot next week. Captain writes the slot title and pings the reliever before retro ends.

Flip Google Drive Share Setting to "Anyone with the Link" Right-click the file → Share → Change to anyone with the link → snag the URL that ends in /view?usp=sharing. This lone switch removes the sign-in barrier and is the only permission that lets you turn the address into a straight https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=FILE_ID fetch.
