Past shows

  • hpr4106 (2024-04-29) "My tribute to feeds" by Henrik Hemrin.
    Summary: "Feeds are useful to keep me updated with new information from websites I am interested in."
    • Comment 3: Sem luz em Saint Louis on 2025-02-06: "Valid!"

      I listened (read) your program, and it has brought me a good insight about the use of feeds and a possible software to it.(Thunderbird).

      In personal use I have used webmail since forever, having tested options, but keeping in the web. Also, as I only get some information from laws and judicial decisions in my country, to stay updated, after some consideration I have decided to subscribe by mail instead of choosing software... But I admit, feed has many advantages, in my case it was mostly lazyness opting for newsletter instead of it. If sometime I come to get more personal mails, maybe I'll have to move newsletters to feed for organization (or if something have no option of e-mailing).

      Thanks for the show! All good to you!


  • hpr4129 (2024-05-30) "How I found Hacker Public Radio" by Henrik Hemrin.
    Summary: "Another podcast led me to Hacker Public Radio. "
    • Comment 2: Sem luz em Saint Louis on 2025-02-06: "Thanks, Henrik!"

      Hi, Henrik!
      Nice to find your show! A nice moment to share and for us to know, the day you listened about and then listened to hpr! I also appreciate you having posted the full text for us, sometimes I like a podcast this way, to read. =) just a comment to show my liking of your show here, thank you.

      My (unasked) testimony: I don't remember when I met HPR, but soon I had the desire to participate (years ago). Not a reality at the occasion, but now I have done something thar, if approved, may go on air in one week.


  • hpr4168 (2024-07-24) "Beyond Economic Recovery" by Trixter.
    Summary: "How to lower your anxiety level as an archivist."
    • Comment 3: Sem Luz em Saint Louis on 2025-02-14: "Piracy may be not so straight-forward"

      Enjoying the show time later.
      I didn't know what to expect from the show, as I was not familiar with the works of an archivist. Now, having listened it, I learned.

      Until now, I thought about downloadable items (games, as per the show) without permission to be piracy, and I did not comprehend how Archive.org had so much... as you said, it might not be legal in some cases, but it is also a matter of "safe". Thanks for giving this perspective.

      Liked your audio and voice quality.
      Thanks!


  • hpr4204 (2024-09-12) "LibreOffice Importing External Data" by gemlog.
    Summary: "It's how to use the normal menu items to make online tabular data easier to use."
    • Comment 1: Windigo on 2025-02-09: "Phenomenal tip"

      I had no idea you could import HTML tables into Libreoffice Calc. What a great way to make information on the web more readable and useful!

      Short and sweet. Thank you so much for the episode!


  • hpr4302 (2025-01-28) "New Campaign Trail Playthrough" by Lochyboy.
    Summary: "Join Alexander [Lochyboy} as he plays new campaign trail"
    • Comment 2: Sem luz em Saint Louis on 2025-02-06: "Played it!"

      What a finding you gave us to find! I'm not American, so the mechanicals, I thought, wouldn't fit to my reality. Anyone, I went there and, hey, there is a mod option to play like... (Are you ready?) Paul! The apostle! I'm a Bible reader, so I went to it, a very deep and interesting gameplay! I played on hard and couldn't win against Barnabas, but well an adventure and an apprentice!
