Apt Spelunking.

"Apt spelunking" is a silly term I made up for the act of searching through your package manager, App Store, Code Repo, etc with vague terms, and trying out random applications therein.
A public series started by Windigo.

2 software recommendations: one online, one an Android app

No one is free software (important disclaimer for a community of hackers)

FUTO KEYBOARD for android

Without internet permission, it has:

  • word prediction
  • speech to text
  • swipe typing

Functions very well. =)

INOREADER:

Free, online feed reader, and you have:

  • no ads (essential!)
  • up to 150 feeds
  • beautiful and very customizable display, for clutter-free or very cluttered experience, to your liking
  • as online, you can have a continuous experience between PC and mobile

If that's not enough, you can get a paid plan to more. =)

FUTO Keyboard

Hello Antoine,

Thanks to your show, I am changing my keyboard to the FUTO keyboard, at least for now.

PS. It is good to hear you on the last few shows.
What is your recording setup like?

@#1 My setup

Hi, Archer72 =)

I'm still playing with the possibility, here in HPR, of sharing something by audio programs, so I have already used almost all of the possibilities I have: usb condenser microphone, dynamic microphone, directly on the smartphone holding it on my hand... I only did not try yet my cheap lavalier microphone.

I'm almost sure that, for this one, I used: Laptop computer (Galaxy Book4 Ultra) with Behringer UMC-22 (USB audio interface) and Audio-Technica PRO63 (dynamic XLR microphone).
This mic is specific for instruments, but it was an Audio-Technica at a good price point at the time, so getting it and the interface years ago was satisfactory.

When I have time, I play with compression, normalization and, if I'm absolutely in the mood (as it demands time, effort), equalization. I think I've done it here, and *did not* cut errors nor changed the pace of the talk by cutting silences. If you happen to want more about that options, feel free to ask.

Nice to know you're giving a chance to FUTO, I hope it comes well to your use. Let me share also this that I didn't say and haven't seen elsewhere: there is a shortcut to paste (the special icon when you long-press "V"), and others like this, like select all option when long-pressing "A".

Thanks! ^^

Re: My setup and the Community Show

Hello Antoine,

I was listening to the Community Show hpr4351, and Ken was right.
This would make a great show, or series of shows.

Audio setups are *definitely* of interest to hackers :)
