Sorry for joining the party so late, but I\'ve been behind on my podcasts lately.\r\nI\'ll get down to the subject, and that can be resumed in one acronim: R(F)TM. Rockbox is a complex piece of software and a lot of its functionality isn\'t obvious.\r\nFor instance, to lock the keys on the clip you need to press both the middle button (select) and home at the same time, while you are playing a song (rockbox devs name that the WPS - while playing screen). Also, if you are somewhere in the menus and you want to return to the wps you use the same key combo - home + select.\r\nAlso, at least on my Sansa e200, you can have it charge from a computer without accessing the disk by holding select while you plug in the usb cable. I don\'t know if it\'s the same for the Clip Plus.\r\nAs a closing note, if I recall correctly, the Clip Plus is still under development, especially the usb side of things, so you can expect improvements with each new release (unless you\'re using the current build, like I do).\r\n\r\nHere\'s hoping you have a nice day,\r\nFragilematter','2017-09-09 07:41:22'),

The Fuze has has never fallen off by accident. \r\n\r\nThis is perfect for recording, and even general use, and the Velcro/handle combo helps to cut down on handling noise.

','This is a copy of a post I made a while back about Android stuff...\r\nJohn Zimm - Aug 22, 2011 - Limited\r\n\"This is my response to Bryan on LAS and his ideas on HP and Linux ect.. I am a newbie to Linux. I have completely switched over to it. So, here I am enjoying my old HP desktop with Pentium 4. Then I learn about the bearded dude, and I loved what he is saying about GNU. So I started to feel like this whole Linux thing isn’t fake and is not lying to me. That is important. For example, I got made when I heard new ideas were formulated and High schools did not teach me these new things because they were not what we had been taught in the past… no flexibility, no courage and no respect for us to change the school books to reflect how history really looked or what led up to it. Or how we are animals ect. ect. You get the picture. So, now, after watching LAS and listening to other shows, I am interested in paying the data plan (for the first time) and getting a smart phone. So, I was really confused when I heard everyone talk about Android this and Android that. I don’t give a shit about a cheap knock-off of Linux, or something that runs Linux in the background, or how ever you say it. I wanted to stick with what I just learned… LINUX. Everyone was talking about how flexible and scalable Linux is, but I can’t have it on my phone? So, I moved on. I started to get interested in tablets… HOLLY SHIT, THOSE RUN THAT STUPID ANDROID, FAKE LINUX TOO. Remember, I am a newbie, so I don’t have a sense of where things in Linux came from or started, or how great Android is. Sorry if I don’t appreciate Android. But let\'s get real, The big company Google, didn\'t fit into my new found ideals. But, I want my Mint 11 on a tablet. Is that to much to ask for. I hate that I am not smart. I am just a geek-wanna-be. I hate that I can’t pick one device at a time, (phone or tablet) and make Mint 11 run on it, then upload an iso for everyone to use. So, when I heard Bryan say that about how we should not be relying on other OSs that can be pulled after 46 days… I am totally , totally totally, on board. I do have other skills, and maybe I can help in some way. Let’s get this BITCH rolling. When I used to daydream about this, I came up with naming the device that I was going to invent… wait for it… “L”. And after watching the LAS show, I came up with calling the distro, “GLD”, for GNU Linux Debian. PS,as I am about to hit share, I see a post below my,that says, \"Touchdroid, Android for HP Touchpad Project Started\". Why not Linux, for HP Touchpad project??????????????????????????\"','2017-09-09 07:41:22'),

I was fortunate in getting a $99 dollar hp touchpad. (I\'m a geek, i want a new gadget). It\'s a fun toy. WebOS is quiet good imo. The homebrew community has compiled new kernels, cli etc. I\'ve got it overclocked. Good stuff. Still they are just shiny toys. Even when i can install a proper linux distro, it will still be just a convienient coffee table device for quickly surfing to get tv listings or watching youtube vids. Oh lest i forget it is a great ereader, though a bit heavy. I\'m glad i have one, but i have better things to drop $500 on. One other thing. All these type devices are driven by the apps that consumers will buy. No apps no gadget goodness. Remember BeOS or OS2? Had them both at one time. Both stable and much better than Win3/95, but as a user there just wasnt much stuff beyond the os itself to do.\r\nI would like someone to make an argument that these tablets are more than consumer trinkets mostly (latest status/ego boost hotness), i\'d listen but i don\'t think it\'s going to happen.','2017-09-09 07:41:22'),

Episode 0853 :: Pat Volkerding of Slackware Linux chats with Klaatu\r\n\r\nI\'m not making this exception because it was \"better\", I would find it impossible to make such a call. The HPR community produces a massive amount of content and I have listened to every single one at least once. There has not been a single HPR show that I have not enjoyed and learned from.\r\n\r\nNor is it that it was submitted by Klaatu as given that he has submitted 12 1/2% of all shows, I would have written this long before now. Sure today\'s \'topic\' was special - a interview with Patrick Volkerding the man behind SlackWare, the longest continually developed Linux distribution - but we\'ve had other interviews with people of note before.\r\n\r\nThe reason for this deviation is simply because it embodies the qualities that I feel define Hacker Public Radio.\r\n\r\nIt\'s about taking a topic and exploring it, looking at all sides, exposing otherwise hidden and unknown facts, it\'s about events, it\'s about community, it\'s about people, it\'s about technology, it\'s about music, it\'s about history, it\'a about life, it\'s about questioning - everything - our very existence - space time - ancient cultures. In short it\'s about \"Any topic that is of interest to Hackers\"\r\n\r\nIf you have never listened to a HPR then this is surely the best sample of what you are likely to find. Sure it arrived just in time to fill an otherwise empty slot, the audio isn\'t perfect, it might not follow a script, random people wander in and out, there may be tangents from the topic at hand but if you can open your ears to listen you\'ll hear the passion of the community, our community.

Both your words and actions illustrate the importance of maintaining an open and democratic Internet.\r\n\r\nRight now, Congress is debating a few pieces of legislation concerning the very real issue of online piracy, including the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), the Protect Intellectual Property Act (PIPA) and the Online Protection and Digital ENforcement Act (OPEN). We want to take this opportunity to tell you what the Administration will support—and what we will not support. Any effective legislation should reflect a wide range of stakeholders, including everyone from content creators to the engineers that build and maintain the infrastructure of the Internet.\r\n\r\nWhile we believe that online piracy by foreign websites is a serious problem that requires a serious legislative response, we will not support legislation that reduces freedom of expression, increases cybersecurity risk, or undermines the dynamic, innovative global Internet.\r\n\r\nAny effort to combat online piracy must guard against the risk of online censorship of lawful activity and must not inhibit innovation by our dynamic businesses large and small. Across the globe, the openness of the Internet is increasingly central to innovation in business, government, and society and it must be protected. To minimize this risk, new legislation must be narrowly targeted only at sites beyond the reach of current U.S. law, cover activity clearly prohibited under existing U.S. laws, and be effectively tailored, with strong due process and focused on criminal activity. Any provision covering Internet intermediaries such as online advertising networks, payment processors, or search engines must be transparent and designed to prevent overly broad private rights of action that could encourage unjustified litigation that could discourage startup businesses and innovative firms from growing.\r\n\r\nWe must avoid creating new cybersecurity risks or disrupting the underlying architecture of the Internet. Proposed laws must not tamper with the technical architecture of the Internet through manipulation of the Domain Name System (DNS), a foundation of Internet security. Our analysis of the DNS filtering provisions in some proposed legislation suggests that they pose a real risk to cybersecurity and yet leave contraband goods and services accessible online. We must avoid legislation that drives users to dangerous, unreliable DNS servers and puts next-generation security policies, such as the deployment of DNSSEC, at risk.\r\n\r\nLet us be clear—online piracy is a real problem that harms the American economy, threatens jobs for significant numbers of middle class workers and hurts some of our nation\'s most creative and innovative companies and entrepreneurs. It harms everyone from struggling artists to production crews, and from startup social media companies to large movie studios. While we are strongly committed to the vigorous enforcement of intellectual property rights, existing tools are not strong enough to root out the worst online pirates beyond our borders. That is why the Administration calls on all sides to work together to pass sound legislation this year that provides prosecutors and rights holders new legal tools to combat online piracy originating beyond U.S. borders while staying true to the principles outlined above in this response. We should never let criminals hide behind a hollow embrace of legitimate American values.\r\n\r\nThis is not just a matter for legislation. We expect and encourage all private parties, including both content creators and Internet platform providers working together, to adopt voluntary measures and best practices to reduce online piracy.\r\n\r\nSo, rather than just look at how legislation can be stopped, ask yourself: Where do we go from here? Don’t limit your opinion to what’s the wrong thing to do, ask yourself what’s right. Already, many of members of Congress are asking for public input around the issue. We are paying close attention to those opportunities, as well as to public input to the Administration. The organizer of this petition and a random sample of the signers will be invited to a conference call to discuss this issue further with Administration officials and soon after that, we will host an online event to get more input and answer your questions. Details on that will follow in the coming days.\r\n\r\nWashington needs to hear your best ideas about how to clamp down on rogue websites and other criminals who make money off the creative efforts of American artists and rights holders. We should all be committed to working with all interested constituencies to develop new legal tools to protect global intellectual property rights without jeopardizing the openness of the Internet. Our hope is that you will bring enthusiasm and know-how to this important challenge.\r\n\r\nMoving forward, we will continue to work with Congress on a bipartisan basis on legislation that provides new tools needed in the global fight against piracy and counterfeiting, while vigorously defending an open Internet based on the values of free expression, privacy, security and innovation. Again, thank you for taking the time to participate in this important process. We hope you’ll continue to be part of it.\r\n\r\nVictoria Espinel is Intellectual Property Enforcement Coordinator at Office of Management and Budget\r\n\r\nAneesh Chopra is the U.S. Chief Technology Officer and Assistant to the President and Associate Director for Technology at the Office of Science and Technology Policy\r\n\r\nHoward Schmidt is Special Assistant to the President and Cybersecurity Coordinator for National Security Staff\r\n\r\nCheck out this response on We the People.','2017-09-09 07:41:23'),

I think I know the answer to your “heretical” question, “why are we not all using a language that is as efficient to run as C and as efficient to write as Python?”: It is a lot harder than it looks. Python (specifically CPython) looks terrible in benchmarks, but for many real applications it is slower than C, but not enough slower to matter. Also, lots of smart people have tackled the problem from lots of different directions (C++, OCaml, Java, Unladen Sparrow, etc.) with limited success so far. And change is slow just because being an early adopter of a language is expensive, and being a late abandoner is even more expensive.

I appreciate your comments and learn a lot when people like you give an honest assessment. Your in-depth review was well thought out and I enjoyed hearing your praises and criticisms. That type of feedback is invaluable, so thank you for your honesty.\r\n \r\nWhen I was asked in an interview if I would change anything my answer was, without hesitation, \"the writing.\" There’s a lot of things I would change… especially in the prologue. The original story was teens but they were supposed to be college kids in the final draft so I don’t know what happened there. Major oversight! I also agree with your assessment of the diner scene: I should have included more description on how he found her and got her out. Good catch. Ditto for the bear… and A.I… and the chip… You gave me a lot to think about.\r\n \r\nI’m glad you would be interested in hearing the sequel, which I hope to finish writing within the next few months, and I do hope you guys are willing to review that one on your podcast as well.

(464,1033,'2012-07-27 12:16:36','Mike Hingley','Alternate viewpoinr','My counter argument to the central point made by your podcast is this : \r\n\r\nI feel almost intrisictly opposed to the stock RTFM answer - here are my reasons why : \r\n\r\n1. Elitism\r\nThis may not be intentional - but when someone says \"RTFM\" the subtle message it puts out is \"I know the answer, but I\'m not going to tell you because I do not believe you are worthy of my time and energy because you have not displayed sufficient schooling in this area\". To me - this represents a knowledge elite, where those that can and do,laugh down their noses at those that can\'t. One thing I can\'t stand is elitism especially in the open source community, where access to information and resources is the ultimate leveller. \r\n\r\n2. Puts people off\r\nIt may be that the user asking that question has no background in the computer science aspects of computing, but approaches the use of computers like any other consumer device. For example : I recently fitted some smoke alarms into my house. the manual said that the light should flash every 45 seconds - but in reality it flashed every 10 seconds. I phoned the help line and spoke to a technician who answered the question. His response was much more useful to me as it answered my question directly. I now feel much more confident in my ability to work with electronics not only from this company, but from others, as I know there is an element of support.\r\n\r\n3. Adds nothing\r\nIn reality all information relating to Linux is either gathered by reading the manual or source, or through experience with the product. Therefore the stock answer to any query from anybody could be RTFM, and the chances are that there is a manual page or documentation out there that covers that subject.\r\n\r\n4. Makes assumptions about the users\r\nRTFM assumes that the user that has made contact is indeed able to read a manual. To make such an assumption based on no information does us a disservice\r\n\r\n5. In some instances - inappropriate for the communication paradigm\r\nIf I contact a IRC help chat channel and all I am told is RTFM, then the channel could be hosted by bots which just respond RTFM. If the help chat channel offers no help, then it ceases to be a useful tool.\r\n\r\n6. Aggressive\r\nThe use of offensive language in this term makes it inappropriate for use. I always pride myself that the communications I have made within the open Source community are free from swears - I would have no problem with my parents, or grand parents, or little nieces and nephews reading what I have written. \r\n\r\n7. Competition\r\nThe point is that Microsoft, Oracle etc already have this type of facility - where questions can be asked and answered. We\'re competing with these companies, and therefore we need to raise the bar. Making someone slog through a reference book to find out why their network isn\'t working isn\'t competing so well.\r\n\r\n8. Obtuse\r\nResponding to a technical query from a user with a technical acronym only compounds the issue. \r\n\r\n\r\nI want to table something : I\'d like to suggest that we censor ourselves from responding with RTFM - I\'d like to ban the term, and instead suggest that we start to write things in plain english. \r\n\r\nFor example : \r\n\r\nOh - I\'m sorry you\'ve experienced an issue with the FOO widget under Distrix. Let\'s see if we can\'t offer some advice. It looks like the issue is , which means \r\n\r\nThere are a number of things we can try : \r\n\r\n1. instruction 1\r\n2. instruction 2\r\n3. instruction 3\r\n4. instruction 4\r\n\r\nIf you want to learn more about FOO widget, then you can find the man page by going to terminal and typing man FOO.\r\n\r\n---\r\n\r\nOnce we have done this a few times we can start to formulate strategies to solving the issue, which we can document. \r\n\r\nThe important things I wanted to raise with my suggestion are : \r\n\r\n1. Empathy - we are empathising with the user. This helps to establish a bond, and the user may feel happier that at least someone understood the issue.\r\n\r\n2. Information - we are presenting the user with some basic information about the issue they are having.\r\n\r\n3. Tasks - we are presenting some ideas that the user can try \r\n\r\n4. Further information - we are instructing the user how to get more information about the issue.\r\n\r\n','2017-09-09 07:41:23'),

I\'d like to offer up a couple of suggestions, if I may.\r\n\r\nFirst is that your mic is good enough that you need a pop filter. When you say words that cause air to puff out of you, that air hits the mic element harder than the rest of your speech, and you get a \"pop\" sound. Do a search for \"DIY pop filter\" or \"how to pop filter\" and you\'ll find cheap or free solutions that work well.\r\n\r\nSecond is that the name Sean is pronounced like Shawn. It\'s just an alternate spelling. I\'m a Sean Fournier fan too, so I knew who you were talking about.\r\n\r\nI think you did a good job of leveling the audio between the talking parts and the music parts. That\'s hard to do properly, so well done... or \"Good on ya\'!\" as Peter64 might say.','2017-09-09 07:41:23'),

This is why LGPL seems to be gaining popularity.\r\n\r\nI do think more software should be open, but I don\'t think it\'s likely to happen anytime soon as very few people are willing to pay money to support software that is free as in freedom since they can just get it also free as in beer. As long as proprietary software pays far better per hour for the developers it will still be there, and as long as it is the case I can\'t really blame developers.\r\n\r\nSo donate as much as you can to your favourite projects. If you can get people to donate $20 per hour total to these people it actually means they may be able to live on it.','2017-09-09 07:41:23'),

But the GPL does this by depriving all USER of an important right that only the AUTHOR of the software has: the right to change the licence!\r\n\r\nWith a \"permissive\" licence (i. e. MIT-licence) the user (of the MIT-licenced software) has the SAME right as the author, namely to change the licence at will (and then distribute it further under the new licensing terms).\r\nAny recipient of the (now closed) software has THE SAME right as the evil guy who has changed the licence: he can download the MIT-licenced software, change it and then change the licence at will, but he has not the same rights concerning the closed version by the evil guy...\r\n\r\nWith permissively licenced software any user of the software has the same rights as the original author!\r\n\r\nWith GPLd software you have 4 rights, with MIT-licenced software you have 5(!) rights.\r\nThe 5th right is to take away any right from the recipient of the software, now licence under YOUR terms...\r\n\r\nThe AUTHOR of GPLd software has the right (as an author) to relicence it under any licence he chooses. The USER of GPLd software does not have the right to relicence the software.

(548,1116,'2013-08-03 10:47:06','Josef Donnington','','Superb interview.\r\n\r\nIt enabled me to answer the following questions, that were posted on my blog by a guy called Tony.\r\n\r\n------------------------\r\nTony:\r\n\r\nIf you go to a backery and buy a cake, is it unethical if you don’t get the recipe as well?\r\nIf you buy a radio, is it unethical if you don’t get the construction plans for it?\r\nIf you buy some software, is it unethical if you don’t get the source-code?\r\nIf you buy a processor, is it unethical if you don’t get the “hardware description language”-description of the processor?\r\n\r\nStallman sees it as an ethical issue. Maby he is ultimately right. I simply don’t know.\r\nHe’s right that sharing is a good thing.\r\nBut is it really an ethical issue whether or not you get some recipe, construction plans or source-code??\r\n\r\n---------------\r\n\r\n\r\nAnalyzing this...\r\n\r\nTony wrote: \"If you go to a backery and buy a cake, is it unethical if you don’t get the recipe as well?\"\r\n\r\nThe analogy between recipe and source code, in the way you present it, is flawed.\r\n\r\nLet me explain: the cake is the OUTPUT of the recipe. If a recipe is freedomrespecting (by allowing unrestricted use, modification, and distribution with out without modification), then this does not apply to the OUTPUT, i.e. the cake. Put another way: the cake (output) is not the corresponding source of the recipe-steps performed. (See https://hackerpublicradio.org/eps.php?id=1116 at tracktime 30:58)\r\n\r\nTo fix the analogy. Here\'s an example of a violation of \"freedomrespecting recipes\":\r\nAssume a recipe-seller states: \"all my recipes are freedomrespecting.\" You then decide to purchase from him a recipe-executor-black-box, and a number of recipes on USB-stick. At home you plug in the recipes-USB-stick into the recipe-executor-black-box and select \"Grandma\'s ultraspecial chocolate cake\". The executor-black-box removes some ingredients from the connected ingredients-containers (flour, sugar, chocolate, etc.). You cannot see what\'s going on inside, but after one-and-a-half hours... out comes a cake!\r\nSo you tell yourself: well that\'s great, but I want to bake this cake with my own hands and change the steps slightly. You connect the recipes-USB-stick to your own computer, expecting to find the steps. But low and behold: you find that the \"recipes\" are only in a machine-readable binary format, that you cannot decipher them.\r\nThis is a freedomrespecting recipe violation!!! If the recipes really were free, you would have received not only the binary format, but the steps of the recipe in human-readable english as well!\r\n\r\nNow lets say you have aquired a freedomrespecting recipe for a cake (and here I really mean a free recipe, in that it is not obfuscated or coded; but instead a description of steps). Lets say you have a bakery and sell a customer the cake (baked according to the recipe): do you have to give the customer the recipe?\r\nNo, since the cake is the output. You are not selling the customer the steps to produce the cake.\r\n\r\nBut now you might try and apply this to software and say: \"But look here: the binary program is the output of the source code. So if you pass on the binary program, you don\'t have to pass on the souce code, right?\"\r\nThis would be a misunderstanding, since the program is NOT the output of the source code. Instead: the program is merely the output of a compiler. But the binary program is a direct transformation of the source code: The steps in the program, are still the steps in the source code. We say: the source code is the \"CORRESPONDING SOURCE\" of the program binary.\r\nThus with free software, the software ... in all the forms it is distributed: binary, etc. needs to include the \"corresponding source\", that give one the freedom to modify it.\r\n\r\n\r\nTony wrote: \"If you buy a radio, is it unethical if you don’t get the construction plans for it?\"\r\nThis analogy between construction plans and souce code is also flawed.\r\nThe construction plans can be free (freedomrespecting). But the construction plans are not the corresponding source of the radio: The radio does not perform the construction steps. The radio does not have a corresponding source, since it is the output of the construction steps.\r\n\r\n\r\nTony wrote: \"If you buy some software, is it unethical if you don’t get the source-code?\"\r\nDepends on your view. You can certainly argue: yes. First off: the steps the program runs, are the steps that are described in the source code. Furthermore: if the program runs on a general purpose computer, then you could easily change it (lets say it is not software that is burned into a ROM for an applianc like a toaster.) Then it is only fitting that you should really be able to make use of this possibility (changing the program on your computer), and that requires a form of the program that is best suited to do that job: the corresponding souce. \r\nOn the other hand: If you have proprietary software, then - even though you are running the software on a device that easily allows changes - the owner of the propriertary software has deliberately decided to make this difficult or illegal for you to do. Then only the owner controls the program, and you might be called a fool for using it.\r\n\r\n\r\nIf you buy a processor, is it unethical if you don’t get the “hardware description language”-description (HDL) of the processor?\r\n\r\nDepends on your intent: do you want to analyze what the processor\'s logic is doing, and then have the possiblity to make changes to the processor and create your own (with the guarantee that your logic will be on the chip [and not some fab\'s back-door logic])? \r\nIf you buy a processor created by a fab with modern photolithography, then you get a chip that you cannot change. In that case you don\'t need the HDL-description. BUT: if you buy the whole fab itself (oh: so you have those billions of dollars?!), then you have the possibility to make changes. In that case you\'d be a fool, if you don\'t insist on getting all steps, and descriptions, etc. for making the processor chip, and being able to change it, for example if the chip happens to have a serious bug! If you cannot fix the chips hardware-bug, you\'ll probably be out of business very soon.\r\n\r\nIf on the other hand you buy a FPGA (not so expensive: say 500 dollars or cheaper), and the processor is synthesized on that FPGA, then you can change the hardware-description (via the HDL) and load the changes onto the FPGA. In that case, you\'d be a fool, if you don\'t get the freedomrespecting HDL-description (e.g. in Verilog or VHDL code), in order to actually do that.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe free software definition (of Stallman), applies to the source code and to the binary program. The 2 (source and binary) are linked: the steps in the binary program are the steps in the source code: they are just a transformed version of the same thing. Except that one is easy to change (source code) and the other is incredibly difficult to change (binary program).\r\nThe source code is the corresponding source of the binary program. Free software gives you the freedom to make changes (that you can realistically realize, since that\'s what you can do on general purpose computers), by providing you with the corresponding source.\r\n\r\n','2022-02-14 13:16:29'),

But like all food it needs to be processed appropriatly, most vegtables could be beter fermented, or/and consumed with lots of butter, whats more they taste so much better that way.\r\n\r\nGrass fed is started to be used like all the other terms to sell and make something sound better. But it does make a difference the percentage of grass/hay fed to cattle, 100 % being best IMHO, which we do with our cows. So ask awkward questions to know what grass fed actually means when you pay more money for it.\r\n\r\nNice conversations\r\n\r\nHeres the link to what I think is a great source of info for anyone interested in scientific studies done in the 1920/30\'s with actual people who lived on the foods for many generations. And documents what happened to them when they changed to modernized foods a few years later.

In the series has historians live the life, eat the diet and farm using the husbandry practices that were in use at the time. \r\n\r\nInterestingly everything described in the entire series is based on an account written in books and letters of people who actually lived at the time and who themselves documented their own lives. They make a point of giving the reference to the person who documented it and in what book or letter it was published. Unfortunately I didn\'t make note of each of the references but it would be fascinating resource to get the first hand accounts from people who lived the life and see how that compares to someone viewing it as a complete outsider.\r\n\r\nThe link to the series is here:\r\nhttps://www.petersommer.com/about-peter-sommer-travels/tales-from-the-green-valley\r\n\r\nKen.','2022-02-14 13:16:31'),

That wasn\'t what I thought I was saying in the episode, at least no my intention.\r\n\r\nAlthought the serious is interesting, I don\'t fully see how its related to my episde, or modern homesteading, other than to demonstate that modern people are pretty inept and out of touch about what is food, where it comes from, and what is good for them, and of course how to live in nature and produce their own food.\r\n\r\nI know Ken, as you explained to me you grew up on a small dairy farm in Irland and have experience, as I do, in mowing grass/milking etc and it didn\'t sound like you\'d ever want to go back, and the way you explained it I\'d have to agree with you, however I concioulsly chose to do it at the age of 30, relearn all the skills required using modern technology where appropriate and avantagous.

Having watched the entire series your comments seem to contradict everything I got from the show. Even if you seem to think it\'s a crude historical re-enactment, I am very disappointed that you could not see past that and notice as I did that as the series progresses they each hone their particular skills. Case in point the Oxen and the men develop their muscles and take pleasure and satisfaction from the hard labour so that by the end the humans and animals had formed genuine bonds. \r\n\r\nHowever we are all entitled to our opinions so to make it clear, what I was trying to point out is that there is a wealth of information available to you on living with nature and having healthy food from the writings of peoples who lived prior to the onset of Industrialization. While you may mock the historians who like yourself were attempting to recreate the skills lost to time, the information they were basing their actions on was written by people who will have used those skills all their lives. Those peoples left detailed records of their traditions, practices, diets, technology describing how life was lived for centuries. If you can see past the reality show aspects, you might want to chase down the books that they mention in the show which should be out of copyright by now. There is probably an equivalent stock of literature available to you from the Czech Republic.\r\n\r\nIn your show you mentioned that the families were inaccessible in the winter, so I understand Weston A Price would have only seen the societies during a time of plenty. He may have seen them as healthy people and attributed it to their diet, which given he was only there for the summer would have been full of rich fatty foods. This would seem to agree with what the historians say the diet of a homesteader would have been in the summer. This would seem to back up your point of giving our children rich fatty foods as the evidence as presented would suggest that this would lead to health.\r\n\r\nHowever as the historians point out, during the winter their diet changed radically to the point of starvation. I don\'t know if Dr. Price took this into account or not but if you assume that he did then the advice to eat fatty foods should be given with the caveat that it should be for a short period of time and that you should also starve yourself for a significant portion of the year. If you wish to eat a pre-industrialised diet, then research that diet and present it in it\'s entirety with evidence from multiple sources. Sources which this television series proves are available to you.','2017-09-09 07:41:23'),

(579,1159,'2013-01-19 12:13:36','Dude-man','Sorry but you\'ve not studied much yet ?','Yes, to the best of my knowledge about a year ago, when I first came accross the whole BBC historical episodes, I watch the whole thing. Which is one of the problems with youtube, you can spend many hours watching everything in one go, loved it. And don\'t get me wrong I enjoyed it very much, have first hand learnt or at least tried many of the skills to varying degrees of success over the last 10 years, really about my whole journey is to actually comprehending technology, and I mean in its real definition of the word, hence why I started my own podcast on T E C H N O L O G Y and not just how techknology is being presented by computer/gadget tech journalism and sellers etc (Nothing against them, I love a bit of computer tech as much as the next man). \r\n\r\nThe reason I replied to you reference to these programs is that I didn\'t see exactly how it was related to the dietary information and the shapes and builds of children/adjults when different foods were eaten. The evidences I based the whole episode where in the notes, which you or anyone else is free to follow up and research into the actual information given. The food\'s and habits and hense health was already modified during those periods historically reconstructed in the BBC\'s series, and many of the practices were actually the start of what we now have and consider normal today. Also many of the practices shown are actually part of the reason why many people could be fooled into leaving the country side, where they should be healthy and happy, to the city from the false promise of an easy and more afluent life without the drudgery and ill health they HAD come to experience in the country side by actual BAD practices in order to sell often what was the best of their produce, cheaply to the city merchants so the country people could buy cheap low nutrient dense and stomach filling foods. \r\n\r\nIt seems to me that this is something more personal with you as your childhood background on an actual farm has convinsed you that its a bad way to live, and perhaps how you were doing it it was ? I don\'t know ? However when the clever people actually return to the country side, relearn the skills, judge in a balanced way how the old and new can be used together, and more importantly, which was the point of my presentation, actually understand what healthy food is, and educate and share the information to consumers can therefore actually sell direct (no merchants) and get a fair price which would mean they don\'t have to go down the path of continually cutting corners and chepening the food they may sell.\r\n\r\nBefore you quote me yet more things that you think I\'ve not read or don\'t understand, why don\'t you follow up on the information I\'ve shared and look more deeply at what is presented, these things I\'ve mentioned are beyound being merly my own opinion.\r\n\r\nI repeat, the journey towards industrializtion happened gradually, the cheapening of our foods, even in the coutry also was gradual, and in the societies you mention where documention was made these were subject to those slow changes. This is why the book by Weston A Price is such a treasure as he found and studied 14 groups who were isolated, to you understand the significance of that ? they were actually through necessaty following what they had done for many generations and hadn\'t been exposed by the gradual pressuers of external trade and merchants expoloytation which if you had the connections to the larger world would have effected all other peoples.\r\n\r\nAs for not having enough foods during winter time, you are talking nonsense, what you say may be true in that it actually happened. However understanding food technology, how hight quality foods can be harvested and stored for long periods, if you don\'t try and buy suger/coffee and other crap from merchants from presure of wifes or apparent perseption of luxsury, then people would/could of had more than enough food for themselves. Of course assuming the crazy burdon of taxes to cripple people and steal from them wasn\'t also in effect, forcing them to give up their wealth of good foood made from their own labour.\r\n\r\nI ask you kindly to actually study the two books or website I mention so you can avoid just sounding plain stupid, as your trying to defend you current life position, which I\'m not intentionally trying to undermine. This episode was to upset anyone, just allow anyone make a concious decision based on actual good science. If you look at the foods suggested to eat during religious fasting, for apparent clensing and the times of year these were eaten I can help us think a bit why these rules may have been made, when we understand what those foods actually do to us.\r\n\r\nHave you seen yet the 2 hour video I posted in the comments to these videos ?\r\n\r\nIf you feel so strongly about this, I\'d be happy to talk with you or record another episode with your help, or your wifes, you mention she\'d heard of the books. Otherwise I think it would be better to actually study what I mentioned and comment in relation to those things, not trying to proof that its somehow a burdemsom and toiling life with no meaning and something we can\'t go back to (I think we\'d never want to go back to those historyical times presented in the bbc serious) however there is something to learn and change in our current lifes.\r\n\r\n/END Rant','2017-09-09 07:41:23'),

I accept that you are greatly affected by his works but not to challenge the theories would simply be unscientific and would elevate his book to that of a religious work that must be accepted on faith alone. Therefore I want to find a literate people who were isolated in a manner described by Dr. Price and who documented their own lives. By comparing both works we get a fuller picture of the truth.\r\n\r\nI am genuinely surprised that you would say that people in the 1600\'s were already affected by industrialization of the food chain. At the time the only industrialization would have be localized to water mills which were isolated and not available everywhere. The industrialization that you speak of is generally accepted to have started after 1760 a full hundred years after the time period in discussion in the show. \r\n\r\nDo you have a specific time period in mind where the type of life studied by Dr. Price would have been practiced on the Islands of Ireland or England ? The reason I focus on those is because those regions are the places where I am most familiar with and it would greatly assist in my ability to be able to call information to hand. I would appreciate it if you could keep your reply civil and avoiding drawing conclusions about other peoples live choices.\r\n\r\nRegards,\r\n\r\nKen.','2017-09-09 07:41:24'),

If you consider this or anything I\'ve said religious in some way I\'m sorry for you about that, and you still seem to miss the point. Did you watch the 2 hour video I shared ?\r\n\r\nThe foods we eat are not only effected by the degree of visible industrialization in its production or pressesing, although that does later effect our foods in a very big way, but more importantly our foods and that which our ansesters ate, even back to roman times or perhaps later ? was effected by your position or status in life what you could afford or what you couldn\'t and perhaps actually choise to sell the best in order to by a larger quantity of something of less value or other things that might be anti foods in fact. Industrialization has just made these foods and the effects much more obvious. A choice to eat predomantly low nutrient foods, grain, potatoes, rices, just a few examples and reduce the nutrient dense foods in diets, has happened throughout the ages, for perhaps simular reasons, but I\'m not a historian.\r\n\r\nSo which that I hope you understand the pointless ness in entering into some discussion, along your line of reasoning, as your missing the point through your current lack of knowlege of what actual food is good to eat, which foods would be preferable sold to markets and therefore depriving a family of the best nutrition no mater which time in history you care to look at. The isolated peoples had plenty, generally had little need to trade or aquire more expensive things at the cost of their valuable and priced foods, and that is the point.\r\n\r\nLets have a talk about it more, if your still interested, when you\'ve at least had chance to follow up the links, references, books, videos I mentioned.

I\'ve had to replace a cell three times recently from the 20 cell battery that I\'ve been using about a year. \r\n\r\nThe spot welding is harder to take apart, they come that way in factory made batteries and you have to pull or cut them off, which usually leaves some metal still attached. For this reason it is better to use solder for older cells in my opinion.\r\n\r\nAs for safety, I am tempted to clamp my solder iron to a cell and leave it on maximum heat for 5 minutes to see what happens, probably nothing spectacular. I only heat for about 10 seconds or so max because I don\'t want to damage it\'s capacity. The metal of the cell itself acts as kind of a heat sink so it doesn\'t get as hot as a small component would, and soldering irons are built to melt solder. I\'ve done over 100 solders on to bare cells without mishap or loss in capacity. \r\n\r\nThe main danger is cutting yourself while taking apart a battery pack, the conductor strips are thin and very sharp when you cut them. Other hazards are shorting stuff out with your metal cutter and seeing bright sparks. I once punctured one of the flat cells by accident and it started to get hot and smoke and smelled awful, but I can\'t see that happening with 18650s.','2023-06-10 17:51:39'),

Go to YouTube and search for \"jonkulp\" and \"libreoffice\" and you will find them.

So, it may be worth a second look.\r\n\r\nOn another hand, Manjaro is a great distribution. I highly encourage you to take a look at it. It is more mature than Cinnarch and look just as gorgeous.

(Opus\' support is already more widespread than speex\'s is.) If there are no objections, I would suggest replacing the ~28kbps .spx feed with opus encoded at \"--bitrate 20\". This looks like it should be roughly a high enough bitrate that speech quality should be outstanding, while leaving enough bitrate for the possibility for the opus encoder to switch to MDCT mode (\"CELT\") when it detects non-speech sounds occasionally.\r\n\r\nThe quality should remain the same or probably even better, while reducing the file downloads by an average of around 25%-30% more beyond what speex already gets it down to.\r\n\r\nAlso too, sorry for missing the show recording.

Namely the \"you get what you pay for\" or \"pay peanuts, get monkeys\" spring to mind. So rather than saying it\'s free, you can explain that large companies pay for support.

But it gets used like a filetype.\r\n	The .mp4 specification includes an ID3 data object you could put an entire ID3 header into\r\n	.m4a is the audio version of a .mp4 filetype\r\n		You might see .m4a files with this ID3 data object populated by a valid ID3 object\r\n		But .m4a files typically come from iTunes, but Apple uses an undocumented proprietary format for metadata, so you probably won\'t normally see the ID3 object on a .m4a file from Apple\r\nThere are 2 or 3 other undocumented metadata formats you might run into as well (I don\'t know what they are.)\r\n\r\nID3 Version 1 is an UNRELATED bad old format with SERIOUS LIMITATIONS.\r\n	All metadata is crammed into a specialized 128B data structure at the end of an .mp3 file.\r\n	By putting the 128B at the end of an .mp3 file, crappy players that did not understand what it was would probably just interpret it as more sound a play it as some noise, or if your player crashed on the metadata, it would do so at least AFTER you got to hear the file\r\n	30B each of title, artist, album, comment\r\n	4B year\r\n	1B genre code number, which of course, limits the genres to 2^8 = 256 labels, that need to be looked up in a table to find the definition.\r\n	There are ~141 genre codes defined by ID3v1\r\n	None of them are \"podcast\"\r\n	\r\nID3 Version 2.3\r\n	Completely different than ID3v1\r\n	A whole bunch (~75?) of special data fields, each with their own special data structure at the beginning of the file\r\n	Each field has a special 4-character code to identify it, such as TCON for genre or TIT2 for title\r\n	The (~75?) special data fields use (~5-6) different KINDS of special data structures\r\n		Of these (~75?) special data fields, 39 fields use the text-class kind of special data structure\r\n		The text-based data fields have the same structure\r\n		Except for comments, which has its own structure\r\n		And except for the \"involved persons list\", which is a catch-all text field for stuffing in all the names &amp; roles for everyone else whose role isn\'t defined in one of the other special fields.\r\n		When you stuff multiple entries into a text field, you separate them with a forward slash \'/\'\r\n		Attached Picture\r\n			Aside from the text-based special data fields above, the only other frame anybody normally uses is the \"attached picture\" field.\r\n			Not just a copy of a .jpg file or whatever image format\r\n			Specifies a MIME type of picture data\r\n			Has a free-form text description of the picture data\r\n			You can have multiple \"attached picture\" fields\r\n				Except for 2 \"file icon\" attached picture types, one copy each only\r\n			Has a number code to indicate what the picture is supposed to be\r\n				Cover art\r\n				Inside cover\r\n				Liner notes art\r\n				Artist headshots \r\n				Record publisher logo\r\n				Image of the silk-screened CD art on the disc it came from\r\n				Back cover\r\n				A brightly colored fish (the ogg format uses a cartoon fish for its logo, picture type 17)\r\n				etc.\r\n	\"Content Type\" = genre\r\n	The genre field is text in ID3v2, not a number code like ID3v1\r\n	But the ID3v2 specification still suggests adding the ID3v1 genre code number to this field\r\n	Text field TXXX\r\n		User-defined\r\n		You can have as many TXXX fields as you want, so long as the descriptions are different\r\n		A key name\r\n		A string value\r\n		Could be used to include vorbiscomments\r\n\r\nID3 Version 2.4\r\n	Don\'t bother using ID3v2.4\r\n	Not widely used\r\n	If Windows won\'t read your files\' tags, maybe someone tagged them with the ID3v2.4 format instead of the ID3v2.3 format.\r\n	Mostly a few backwards-incompatible renamings of a few tags\r\n	A few obscure new tags\r\n	When you stuff multiple entries into a text field, you separate them with a NULL, instead of the forward slash \'/\' used by ID3v2.3\r\n	Chapters\r\n		There was a 2005 method of stuffing another ID3 header into the first one to make chapter tags, but this was made 5 years after ID3v2.4, which isn\'t used much anyway, and only the BBC ever used it with their own player software, so you should never try to use this either. If you have to do some archaeology on an old BBC file, you might need to know this. Otherwise, just use vorbiscomments if you want to make an \"enhanced podcast\" with images that show up during playback like a slideshow, based on the chapter tags.\r\n\r\n.mp3 format only uses ID3 format metadata tags\r\nAll the other file formats we care about use Vorbiscomments\r\nhttps://wiki.xiph.org/Chapter_Extension\r\nhttps://www.linuxcommand.org/man_pages/vorbiscomment1.html\r\nhttps://wiki.xiph.org/VorbisComment\r\nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VorbisComment\r\n\r\nVorbiscomments\r\n	All printable characters, must be text characters, no non-printable characters or control codes\r\n	You could search vorbiscomments with grep\r\n	Tag key names are case insensitive\r\n	You can create your own key names\r\n	All tags are OPTIONAL; you can have an ogg file with NO tags present and it will still be compliant\r\n	But there is a recommended standard for common metadata\r\n		https://age.hobba.nl/audio/mirroredpages/ogg-tagging.html\r\n		Singleton tags should only appear once\r\n			If one of these tags appears more than once (a non-compliant mistake), its last appearance should be displayed if there is only room to display one instance of the tag.\r\n		Genre should be TEXT not a number\r\n		You might put comments in the DESCRIPTION field, or make your own \"comment\" tag, although \"comment\" isn\'t in the recommended standard. You could put the same data in both places, although you\'re duplicating the data.\r\n		ISRC tag=\"International Standard Recording Code\", a special tracking code for commercial audio recordings \r\n	The chapter comments proposed tags are very similar to codes fed to .matroska tools to create tags for those files\r\n	Replay gain tags could be used/set by user\'s player software to select a relative playback volume for track adjustment, if you like.\r\n	Location supports geo-tagging the track, although what this means isn\'t clear. GEO_LOCATION\r\n		Is it where the track was recorded?\r\n		Is it thee location referred to in the content?\r\n		Is it the location where the intended audience is?\r\n		Is it a tag that specifies where user\'s device should be when it automatically starts to play?\r\n		Is it a bunch of waypoints of recordings of chapters you took at different scenic locations in a travelogue?\r\n	Attached pictures are a pain.\r\n		A visible picture is obviously not text-encoded (other than ASCII art). Not human readable.\r\n		Shouldn\'t be in the metadata anyway, should be an independent file inside the container\r\n		But ogg files don\'t support encapsulation of picture format files in the container\r\n		And .mp3 files have been including the binary encoded album art pictures for so long, it is standard practice in .mp3 format\r\n		Encoding a picture inside a vorbiscomments tag involves encoding it as printable text characters.\r\n			e-Mail programs have to do this kind of thing too, encoding pictures as text\r\n			5 or 10 years ago ( right now is 2013-12-05 ) people were doing this with an obsolete field called \"COVERART\" with the contents of the field being nothing more than the base64 encoded .jpg or .png file\r\n				Don\'t do this now, no one will ever see the cover art\r\n				Nobody ever implemented using this field\r\n				It was replaced long ago by an officially documented structure\r\n		METADATA_BLOCK_PICTURE is the correct vorbiscomments tag name for a picture.\r\n			https://wiki.xiph.org/VorbisComment#Cover_art\r\n			A complete Base64 encoded data structure, includes\r\n				Width\r\n				Height\r\n				MIME type\r\n				Description [optional]\r\n				Picture Type number code ( similar to ID3 )\r\n			.flac uses vorbiscomments for its metadata\r\n				Except for attached pictures\r\n				Unlike .vorbis, .speex &amp; .opus files, .flac files are not inside .ogg containers. .flac is its own container format.\r\n				.flac has its own attached picture block, very similar to .mp3 files\r\n					.flac also calls this tag \"METADATA_BLOCK_PICTURE\"\r\n						But it does not have the same format as the vorbiscomments METADATA_BLOCK_PICTURE tag!\r\n			.vorbis, .speex &amp; .opus files\r\n				Don\'t have a special metadata block just for attached pictures\r\n				These build a .flac METADATA_BLOCK_PICTURE tag, then Base64 encoded it into text that can be used as a valid vorbiscomment METADATA_BLOCK_PICTURE tag.\r\n		The .flac &amp; .opus LINUX command line file encoders allow you to include as many attached pictures as you want as switches\r\n		The LINUX command line ogg vorbis encoder does not allow you to include multiple pictures\r\n			BUT, the ogg vorbis encoder does accept .flac files for input\r\n				It will transfer the .flac file\'s metadata to the finished .vorbis file, including any extra pictures that were already in the .flac file\'s metadata\r\n		So if you make .flac files with complete metadata as the source to work from, you can generate .opus &amp; .vorbis files without editing the metadata further\r\n		\r\n.mp4 is a Apple Computer Company format.\r\n	If you wanted to create an \"enhanced podcast\" that shows pictures at certain times specified by chapter markers, you\'d have to use special iTunes tags with .mp4 files to make it work, normally only on apple hardware, but WanAMP can also read this format and shows the pictures on a Windows box.\r\n	No one else knows haw to make them, as this is not documented well or supported on most other players.\r\n	You should just use Ogg Vorbis with vorbiscomments that have chapter markers instead.\r\n	\r\n.wav files\r\n	The lowest common denominator for audio files\r\n	Usually lossless PCM audio\r\n	Simple in structure, widely supported\r\n	.wav files support metadata, but they are badly documented\r\n	Audacity can include a limited set of tags in a .wav both as an \"info chunk\", whatever that is, AND as an ID3 tag\r\n	\r\n.webm is a special file format version of .matroska\r\n	.matroska metadata is even worse than ID3\r\n		Uses ~100 rigidly defined tag names\r\n	.webm uses ~70 of those .matroska tags\r\n	The tags are heavily video-related, seems to presume the .matroska files will only contain movies\r\n	Supposed to be object-oriented\r\n		Burying some tags inside other tags, such as a \"character\" tag inside an \"actor\" tag\r\n	\"thanks to\" tag is a catch-all for stuff that couldn\'t go anywhere else\r\n	This metadata is tacked onto the end of the file so in theory you don\'t ever need to reincode the video file if you need to change the metadata\r\n		Streaming media won\'t get the metadata until the entire file is played, unless the whole file is being buffered to the end before playback\r\n	.webm doesn\'t support attached pictures at all\r\n		.matroska has limited support for attached pictures\r\n			Allows a large and a small version of a \"banner graphic\"\r\n			Allows a large and a small version of an \"album art graphic\"\r\n	.webm audio files only exist as afterthought to video\r\n		You could make one with GNU Media Goblin\r\n			Useful only as a \"test\"\r\n\r\n.asf or .wma audio files are bad, obscure, Windows media file formats\r\n	.asf=.mp4\r\n	.wma=.m4a\r\n	.wmv=.m4v\r\n	All of these Windows media files are really just .asf format, similar to the way .m4a &amp; .m4v are really just .mp4 format.\r\n	Metadata is limited\r\n		5 different metadata \"objects\"\r\n			Can contain different kinds of metadata\r\n			\"content description object\", a very small set of pre-defined metadata fields, 64kB each\r\n				title\r\n				author\r\n				copyright\r\n				description\r\n				rating\r\n			\"content branding\" object\r\n				Limited to a single banner image\r\n				album art\r\n				URL for copyright warning stored online\r\n			\"extended content description\" object\r\n				Random other metadata\r\n			\"metadata\" object\r\n				Seems to be an \"extended metadata content\" object that can refer to just one file inside the .asf container, not just all of them at once\r\n			\"metadata library object\"\r\n				Anything else\r\n\r\nNo browsers automatically display audio or video metadata by default, built-in.

(765,1393,'2013-12-06 20:22:10','Epicanis','Good summary/questions, Ace Frahm!','Seems like you have enough questions there for a short followup all by yourself! \r\n\r\nJust to hit a couple of random ones here (I\'ll probably try to follow up in audio in the \"opus codec\" episode once I\'ve gotten caught up to that):\r\n\r\nBy \"3 or 4 others\" (metadata formats) besides id3 and vorbiscomments I was referring to RIFF INFO chunks (.wav metadata), webm/matroska tags, .wma microsoft-screwy-thing, and the undocumented special iTunes thing.\r\n\r\nI did count right around 75 individual id3v2.3 field (/frame/tag) names, though I didn\'t go back to confirm the exact number.\r\n\r\nMinor point - I need to enunciate better I think - it\'s \"id3ted\" rather than \"id3tdd\".\r\n\r\nGood question about the geolocation - it\'s \"any of those that are relevant\". For photographs, the geolocation is always assumed to be \"where the photographer was standing when the picture was taken\" and there aren\'t too many cases where any other interpretation makes much sense. (In a telephoto of an obvious landmark it might make sense to geotag with the location of the landmark instead, or for an image of a map, it might make sense to geotag the center of where the map represents). As far as I know, photo geotagging only supports a single geolocation per image as well [not necessarily counting geoTIFF], so options are limited.\r\nWith vorbiscomments explicitly designed to support multiples of all tags, the way I think of it is you put in a geo_location tag for any location that is relevant to the recording: imagine that someone wants to generate openstreetmap (or Google Maps or whatever) pages with markers that go with the audio files. The way I figure it, the geo_location tags should provide the locations of all of the markers that the hypothetical link-maker would want to show. (It\'s probably worth proposing a \"description\" addition to the geo_location tag now that you mention this, though: something like \"geo_location;35.1592;-98.4422;;Nowhere, OK used as example location\"\r\n\r\nAlso, thanks for teaching ME something - I usually tend to think of playback as something that doesn\'t need an internet connection, so I feel stupid for only thinking of web links to relevant pages (what I used the \"chapter###url\" tags for, e.g. the id3v2.3 chapter\'s URL should have been a link to the specification online) and somehow completely missed using it to pull a slideshow from the internet while playing. Now I have to try that... (For me, chapter marks are more about having convenient \"jump to:\" points in the audio.) It\'s worth noting that doing \"fetch pictures from the internet\" like that also makes it a way to put \"web bugs\" in audio files...\r\n\r\n(Finally: I should say I don\'t necessarily disagree with your contention of how one SHOULD use the \"artist\" tag...well, actually I do but less strongly and not because that\'s not what the specification says. The cases where it matters seem like they wouldn\'t come up TOO often in practice. The examples that come to mind are mostly things like \"Darryl Hall and John Oates\" and \"Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel\" and \"William Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan\", all of whom are so well known as duos that \"Hall and Oates\", \"Simon and Garfunkel\", and \"Gilbert and Sullivan\" are practically all single-word names (kind of like that \"colladoody\" video game people were going on about...) and makes sense as a \"singlet\". On the other hand, there\'s \"Ebony and Ivory\" (Stevie Wonder and Paul McCartney?), where I think it would definitely be more appropriate to follow the specification and give each \"artist\" their own tag. I just think it\'s more consistent to use all of the tags the same as per specification, and more people using the tags correctly will encourage playback software to support it correctly.)','2017-09-09 07:41:24'),

(766,1393,'2013-12-08 10:56:39','Ken Fallon','Metadata should not be included in the file','Hi Epicanis,\r\n\r\nVery informative show but I would argue that only metadata necessary for the playout of the file should be included in the file itself. Everything else should be included in a separate file that itself is dedicated to hold the metatadata. That file might include locations for where other item might be found, eg, a url to the poster location, or a link to the wikipedia article. \r\n\r\nThe main reason for this would be to keep the complexity of the playout device as simple, and therefore as cheap , as possible. Your argument that there is enough space in a media file to hold all the metadata breaks down, once you start adding metadata in multiple languages, or extending it to add reviews, sleeve notes, wikipedia articles, reviews etc. At that point the text begins to get very significant indeed and runs the risk of been outdated very quickly.\r\n\r\nFields like, Title/Artist/Album/Track Number/Length, should be included as they are (usually not always) the same in every language, and give playout devices enough information for to display something useful, while another another more compiles, independent, process gathers the richer metadata from all over the web.\r\n\r\nIn an ideal world a single additional field with a global unique identifier would be enough to identify the work to the player, and allow it to go out an locate the metadata file, which in turn would link to other sources of information.\r\n\r\nKen.','2017-09-09 07:41:24'),

When electrons travel between the electrodes the lead oxide looses oxygen transforming itself into a conductor.\r\n\r\nHope this answer question\r\n\r\nSounds like your also a bit of a battery fan, just goes to show that batteries can last for years (if you look after them).

HPR shows being (mostly) mono, voice recordings don\'t typically need that kind of encoding. I know that you are going to convert to ogg, mp3, speex and possibly opus, but still a 16-bit input file should be more than adequate in 99.999 percent of the cases. Only when music is involved might it be necessary to use 24-bit, but even then, unless the source is recorded @ 24-bit it\'s really un-necessary.\r\n\r\nAlso, I was surprised there was no effort made to do noise removal, or level the tracks.

You are of course correct that the celcius scale is equally arbitrary, but at least there is a known reason for it. So I was thrilled to hear your explanation but my hopes were dashed by none other than the US Navy, https://www.onr.navy.mil/Focus/ocean/water/temp3.htm \"The freezing point of seawater is about 28.4°F (-2°C), instead of the 32°F (0°C) freezing point of ordinary water. \" \r\n\r\nBut then wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Gabriel_Fahrenheit) explains \"The lowest temperature was achieved by preparing a frigorific mixture of ice, water, and ammonium chloride (a salt), and waiting for it to reach equilibrium. The thermometer then was placed into the mixture and the liquid in the thermometer allowed to descend to its lowest point. The thermometer\'s reading there was taken as 0 °F. \"\r\n\r\nNot that seems to support your point but then we have \"The second reference point was selected as the reading of the thermometer when it was placed in still water when ice was just forming on the surface. This was assigned as 32 °F. \" - Which begs my question why pick 32 degrees for that ?\r\n\r\nContinuing \"The third calibration point, taken as 96 °F, was selected as the thermometer\'s reading when the instrument was placed under the arm or in the mouth.\" So he may have been using a multiple of 32 but why ?\r\n\r\nAlso - you owe me a show :)\r\n\r\nKen.\r\n\r\n','2022-02-14 13:16:38'),

When Aq mentioned all the things you can switch to when the thing you use now pisses you off, he listed several Linuxes, one MacOS, and one Windows. The switch cost between versions of Linux is much lower than the switch cost from MacOS or Windows.\r\n\r\nOn not being an ass-hat. It is perfectly possible to win with free software, to love free software, to be it\'s passionate advocate, without caring that someone else loves proprietary software. Proprietary software isn\'t evil, it\'s ineffective for a particular set of desired outcomes.\r\n\r\nOn command-lines. Really, Aq? It\'s a bug if there\'s not a GUI to do everything the user wants to do? Interestingly the CLI way of doing most things is the same for several years, if not eternally, but the GUI changes with the wind. Linus gave the GNOME project hell over this very thing. Stop breaking user-space without a good reason, and I\'ll stop teaching people to solve their problems from the CLI whenever possible. CLI\'s are powerful, so are chain-saws. The fact that they\'re both scary just adds to their beauty.\r\n\r\nOk, enough, or someone will tell me to record it, rather than writing it.\r\n\r\nGO POKEY!','2017-09-09 07:41:25'),

But not everyone does. And the people who castigate you make the environment so unpleasant that they\'re what drive you out. It seems that the \"advocate open source\" model has become, for some people, the \"chastise those who are insufficiently dedicated to open source\" model, and hearing that all the time is very, very tiring. It doesn\'t matter if there are a hundred nice people for every one nasty person, because you never get to hear from the nice people, just the nasty ones.

Fact.\r\n\r\nEven within the Ubuntu family common tasks like copying files, adding printers, adding packages are all in different locations. \r\n Ubuntu GNOME - Ubuntu with the GNOME desktop environment \r\n Kubuntu - Ubuntu with the K Desktop environment\r\n Lubuntu - Ubuntu that uses LXDE\r\n Mythbuntu - Designed for creating a home theatre PC with MythTV\r\n Ubuntu Studio - Designed for multimedia editing and creation\r\n Xubuntu - Ubuntu with the XFCE desktop environment\r\n\r\nWere Ubuntu/Canonical actually serious about this vision, then a lot more work would be paid to pushing common methods of doing things in the GUI to the Free Desktop or some other upstream project. Taking care of the translation and accessibility support as you go.\r\n\r\nRight now when a friend asks how to do something and they need it done urgently, the only common way we have to *help* them is to do so in the command line.\r\n\r\nKen.','2017-09-09 07:41:25'),

Moreover, things aren\'t as segregated as some may assume when they hear the word \"chroot\". From the end users point of view, you can just run programs and not worry about where they originate or how it works under-the-hood. If you want a web browser from one distro, steam from another, a window manager from yet a third, you can just do that and they all play along together as though they were all from the same distro. I may rework the documentation to put less emphasis on the word \"chroot\" to mimize possible confusion.\r\n\r\nThanks for helping get Bedrock Linux more attention!

The main benefit of ciwiki is that you can choose to make pages private and require a user to login to view or edit the content. https://sourceforge.net/projects/ciwiki/ . We needed something simple at work to keep sales quotes in but we are quite a small company so a full CRM would be overkill so I thought a wiki might be a good idea. I looked at LOADS, but decided that didiwiki (well ciwiki) was simple enough that everyone could use it with around 10 minutes training. We have been running it for around 3 and a half years now and a quick \" ls .didiwiki | sed \'/.prev.1/d\' | wc -l \" shows that there are 1137 pages in our .didiwiki folder. I\'ve found that the built in browser search ctrl^ f works better when searching through page titles. Also backing it up is a piece of cake! I just have a script that runs at 4pm everyday which gzips the whole .didiwiki folder and emails it to me.

(873,1529,'2014-06-12 09:44:43','Ken Fallon','Disagree with your comments on LibReSSL','As ever I enjoyed this show and broadly agree with many of your points. I would first like to strongly disagree with the section where you discuss LibReSSL before adding another suggestion.\r\n\r\nYour Ad hominem argument against Theo de Raadt (10:23:00) was unmerited, and while people may criticise his tact, he has a long history of producing and managing secure projects.\r\nFrom https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theo_de_Raadt: \"He is the founder and leader of the OpenBSD and OpenSSH projects\". \r\n\r\nTo address your other points in that section.\r\n1. \"I would stick with OpenSSL and give LibReSSL a pass, at least until such a time as they show a long track record of success\".\r\nThe developers of LibReSSL have a long track record of success as they are the same people that bring you OpenSSH. They are noted for been able to produce secure software. So much so that Linux Torvalds said of the team, \"I think the OpenBSD crowd is a bunch of masturbating monkeys, in that they make such a big deal about concentrating on security to the point where they pretty much admit that nothing else matters to them.\" From a practical point of view everyone running any Linux Distribution is more than likely already running and trusting OpenSSH.\r\nFrom https://www.libressl.org/: \"LibReSSL is primarily developed by the OpenBSD Project\". \r\nFrom https://www.openssh.com/: OpenSSH is developed by the OpenBSD Project.\r\n\r\n2. \"A good general rule in security is that new code is much more dangerous than code that has been around for a long time\"\r\nThe whole heart bleed issue proves this to be false. The rule itself is based on the premise that if it\'s around a long time, many people have reviewed the code and many bugs have been fixed. This is a rewording of \"given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow\", Linus\'s_Law argument which you yourself criticise in the episode. \r\nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linus\'s_Law \r\n\r\nMany people skip the caveats in the formal version \"Given a large enough beta-tester and co-developer base, almost every problem will be characterized quickly and the fix will be obvious to someone\". The heart bleed code was caused by not having a large enough beta-tester and co-developer base, and yet this is exactly what the OpenBSD Project brings to the table.\r\n\r\nFurthermore LibReSSL is not \"new code\", but rather it is \"forked code\". They are fixing old existing bugs on OpenSSL and nothing is preventing OpenSSL from implementing the fixes they discover.\r\n\r\n3. Your argue that removing code and \"stuff they don\'t care about\" doesn\'t look good.\r\nI would point out that that is not a bad thing and was widely supported when LibreOffice forked OpenOffice. Michael Meeks celebrates this by publicising 38,714 known unused methods in LibreOffice. \"One of the unfortunate things that LibreOffice inherited, as part of the several decades worth of unpaid technical debt, is unused code that has been left lying around indefinitely. This was particularly unhelpful when mingled with the weight and depth of the useful code we have around the place.\"\r\nFrom https://people.gnome.org/~michael/blog/2012-01-09-unused.html \r\n\r\nSo finally I would suggest that \"Mono Culture is bad\" should be added to your list. Having (cooperating) competing systems, is not a bad thing as it encourages development, and innovation. Over reliance on any one piece of software is a bad thing. We saw that in the fields of Operating systems, web browsers and now in Security Libraries. ','2022-02-14 13:16:42'),

(874,1529,'2014-06-13 01:15:53','Kevin O\'Brien','Why I said that...','I still maintain that tested code is better than untested code, and nothing tsts it more than time. The OpenSSL code worked well for a long time until a very subtle error crept in. So the question is whether we will more quickly get to a more secure state by developing a mature code base or by throwing it out and starting over. In general, I maintain that fixing the mature code is a better practice.\r\n\r\nSecond, announcing almost immediately that that you have thrown out 90,000 lines of code (the number I recall) does not tom e suggest careful thought so much as a hack-and-slash mentality, and I don\'t like that in security. Calm deliberation usually works better.\r\n\r\nThird, from the reports I read one of the things that was discarded as an unnecessary feature was Windows compatibility. Even though I support free software, I recognize that we need to share the Internet with a shit-ton of Windows machines, and I would prefer that they be as secure as possible.\r\n\r\nI totally agree on Mono culture, and I hope that LibreSSL provides good competition. I did not mean to imply that LibreSSL should not exist, only that Iwould be very cautious about adopting anything unproven.','2017-09-09 07:41:25'),

Once fixed they are added to LibReSSL and _remain_ in OpenSSL. However, Do not mistake \"old code\" for \"tested code\". It was not tested, which was your third point \"Bugs are not shallow if the eyeballs are not there.\" Now that people *are* looking at the code bugs are been found. Case in point the new team brought on board by the Linux Foundation to help fix OpenSSL reported on 5th June 2014: CVE-2014-0224: \"a Man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack where the attacker can decrypt and modify traffic from the attacked client and server.\"\r\n\r\nSo let\'s look at what was actually removed in the first week. arstechnica have an interview with Theo de Raadt and he describes exactly what they removed.\r\nhttps://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2014/04/openssl-code-beyond-repair-claims-creator-of-libressl-fork/\r\n--------------------------------------------------------\r\nde Raadt said there were \"Thousands of lines of VMS support. Thousands of lines of ancient WIN32 support. Nowadays, Windows has POSIX-like APIs and does not need something special for sockets. Thousands of lines of FIPS support, which downgrade ciphers almost automatically.\"\r\n...\r\nThere were also \"thousands of lines of APIs that the OpenSSL group intended to deprecate 12 years or so ago and [are] still left alone.\"\r\n...\r\nDe Raadt told ZDNet that his team has removed 90,000 lines of C code. \"Even after all those changes, the codebase is still API compatible,\" he said. \"Our entire ports tree (8,700 applications) continue to compile and work after all these changes.\"\r\n--------------------------------------------------------\r\n\r\nSo to summarise the facts:\r\n90,000 lines of *unused* or *obsolete* code is removed from the LibReSSL code base.\r\n90,000 lines of *unused* or *obsolete* code remains in the OpenSSL code base.\r\n\r\nIf the Industry Average is 17.5 errors per 1000 lines of code*, and there are 90,000 lines of code, we can calculate that the OpenSSL code has 1,575 MORE errors than LibReSSL\r\n\r\n( 90000 / 1000 ) x ( ( 50 - 15 ) / 2 ) = 1,575 \r\n* \"Code Complete\" by Steve McConnell. \r\nBlame Charles in NJ if my math is wrong.','2022-02-14 13:16:43'),

The episode and show notes are excellent, and you even made *some* progress in convincing me that a linking table may be needed. I would have liked a more detailed explanation as to why it\'s a bad idea to use a comma separated list backed with actual processor utilization tests to prove this. Even then I\'m willing to argue that the choice of a more inefficient method, is better if the system can be kept simpler. Remember that HPR is a volunteer run effort and we cannot guarantee that we will always have DBA\'s available to help out. I am more than happy to select a less efficient process if it means that more people can understand it.\r\n\r\nDon\'t forget that the purpose of the database is to support the distribution of shows. The shows are primarily distributed using RSS and therefore we do not have a choice in the data model, as that is imposed upon us. While a show->host may be better modeled in a Relational database as a many to many relationship the fact is that in a RSS Item element it is a 1:1 relationship. As in: there can be only one //item/author element in the feed, so what we are trying to do isn\'t even possible in RSS 2.0. In the Atom syndication standard it is possible to do it using either multiple atom:author or atom:contributor elements. However even in that case it is still a 1:n relationship and not a many to many. A show is an independent item and has 1 or more authors or 0 or more contributors.\r\n\r\nAlso the use of an RDBMS is a legacy of our history and could change in the future. As DeepGeek suggested a long time ago, it should be possible to run the entire system using XSLT to merge XML fragments. This is now well supported by Atom (atom:source) and HTML5 (html:article). In this case the back end could conceivably not even have a database.\r\n\r\nAs Dave is aware, I may change my mind over night and accept your vision but today I\'m still not convinced. \r\n\r\n- https://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification#ltauthorgtSubelementOfLtitemgt\r\n- https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4287#page-24\r\n- https://www.w3.org/html/wg/drafts/html/master/sections.html#the-article-element\r\n- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relational_database\r\n\r\nKen.','2022-02-14 13:17:17'),

(910,1569,'2014-08-11 17:38:05','Mike Ray','Scalability','Hello Ken. I take your point about XML Atom feeds. A big drawbig of XML is it is stuck with representing top-down, tree-like structures.\r\n\r\nWhat you are doing by putting a comma-seperated list of values in a single column of a table is turning another table through 90 degrees. The problem, apart from the obvious one of there now being data items in this table that are not identified by the key, is one of scalability. How long is the field? 1024 characters? What happens when it runs out of space?\r\n\r\nI know that in this application you are not exactly writing a multi-user client/server database application with many concurrent users and transactions happening every few tens of milliseconds, but compromises should not be made in the interest of programmer comfort with the SQL. That ultimately leads to performance compromises.\r\n\r\nBut even with the largish number of shows to date and the number of hosts, it doesn\'t represent a big dataset. But a system which can support something big from the start will not need tearing down and re-hashing as things grow.\r\n\r\nI guess your hands are a bit tied if you don\'t know the future platform resources, like whether you will always have a sensible RDBMS back-end available.\r\n\r\nMy show was pretty theoretical. I\'m more used to large systems. In the past I have worked on e-commerce systems for big vendors, and on world-wide client/server stuff.\r\n\r\nI usually take the attitude that a heavy-duty solution can handle small-fry without breaking into a sweat, but the reverse is not true.

(916,1569,'2014-09-03 22:03:24','Dave Morriss','Dealing with tags','I\'d have thought the answer was more of the same many-to-many stuff.\r\n\r\nSo what is a a tag? I would expect it to be a descriptive string, perhaps one already used in a system, or maybe a new one. Usually you\'d want to refer to existing tags when tagging an entity in your database I imagine, so you can see if the tag is \"open source\" or \"open-source\".\r\n\r\nIn your interface, if you wanted to re-use a tag for a new entity then would be good if your system offered it in a menu or a list or let you start typing it and generated the matches as you type (like Google does in browsers). To do that you\'d need a searchable table containing one tag per row. If you were typing in a tag and you made a typo the error would be more obvious in such a scheme. (You\'d need Javascript to do this in a browser though.)\r\n\r\nThen a tagged entity associated with many tags would have multiple entries in a cross-reference table. You\'d probably want to store your tags with a case-insensitive variant or build a case-insensitive index too.\r\n\r\nYou wouldn\'t want to store the tags in a comma-separated list in the entity (no idea why I thought of that design) since you couldn\'t then implement a rapid lookup as you typed. Plus you\'d have duplication, couldn\'t easily build an index, etc, etc.\r\n\r\nDoes that make sense? Mike can probably explain this more clearly :-)','2017-09-09 07:41:25'),

Mike starts explaining in good, simple and easy to follow way and then just drops it :( He just needed to continue in similar fashion. Like, one can point from artist_table to genre_table and back but in order to preserve many-to-many nature of data one would have to have multiple copies same data at each side and leave behind the uniqueness of keys and then to change, for example, artists name one would have to change in multiple records at once and queries would have to filter through a lot more data and so on... it would be terribly inefficient and wasteful but it would work... and it would be obvious to listener why this is a bad design... and in an effort to improve it one can evolve it to have third intermediate table...\r\n\"believe me this is bad\" will not cut for explanation :(\r\n*sigh*\r\nsorry, I guess I\'m ranting..','2017-09-09 07:41:25'),

It\'s another simple many-to-many.\r\n\r\nA show can have one or more tags, and a tag can appear for one or more shows.\r\n\r\nSo, using the same diagramming I used in my show notes, and I hope the arrows don\'t screw up the form submission:\r\n\r\nshow------tag\r\n\r\nThe tag table only has one row for any possible tag. And here tags need to be cleaned up, probably all made lowercase and with apostrophes removed etc.\r\n\r\nThen the show_tag_xref table just has a row consisting of two columns:\r\n\r\nshow_id\r\ntag_id\r\n\r\nBoth columns have \'not null\' constraints and there is a compound unique index.\r\n\r\nThen an SQL query something like this can be looped to insert tags into the tags table with an \'after-insert\' trigger to insert into the show_tag_xref table and the tag_id of the tags table is an autoincrement column:\r\n\r\ninsert into tbl_tags (strTag) values (?)\r\nwhere ? not in(\r\nselect str_tag from tbl_tags\r\n);\r\n\r\nAnd then queries similar to those I did for the 1569 show notes are used to pull shows from the pool by tag.\r\n\r\nIt\'s a while since I did any professional MySQL programming but I think it now has triggers and autoincrement columns, and stored procedures.\r\n\r\nA breeze in Perl using the DBI.\r\n\r\n','2017-09-09 07:41:25'),

Unfortunately, what is ingenious to one person is banal to another. While pop-culture may may apply the term \"hack\" trivially, perhaps in the eyes of many in this world, everyday tips and tricks do seem ingenious. In that sense, pop culture is using the term correctly. Of course, among true \"hackers\" (see Appendix B) this wouldn\'t be considered to be the case. But to each their own. It\'s better than perverting the term to only mean \"break into computers.\"\r\n\r\nCheers,\r\n - Gabriel Evenfire','2022-02-14 13:17:17'),

MaryTTS on the other hand is bloated and the voice I have heard is not very much better than I am used to with eSpeak.\r\n\r\nSpeaking as a blind computer user, small footprint and fast, crisp operation is far more important than the sound of the voice. I fail to see how I could write a long text document on a modest machine and expect MaryTTS to keep up with the fact I have been typing for thirty years.\r\n\r\nAnd I am speaking as a blind person.\r\n\r\nWith one or two notable exceptions, possibly the use of a TTS engine by children with print disabilities other than blindness, nobody need look any further than eSpeak, IMHO.\r\n\r\nWhere something like MaryTTS _might_ win, is in the creation of static wav files for repeated use, but for on-the-fly tts, nothing beats eSpeak.\r\n\r\n','2017-09-09 07:41:25'),

(949,1599,'2014-11-26 23:24:36','Steve Bickle','Horses for courses','Mike, \r\n\r\nI am not a TTS developer either, I agree that eSpeak is a fantastic piece of code. As someone who started programming on the ZX81 and Atari 400 I can appreciate compact code. \r\n\r\nThe eSpeak voice is intelligible, and so I\'m lead to believe, can still be understood at high speeds. \r\n\r\nThe eSpeak voice is generally not aesthetically pleasing to those less familiar with TTS. I think Ken was looking to the MaryTTS voices to find something more appealing to the general listener.\r\n\r\nHaving had a little more time to play with MaryTTS I can now appreciate that although seemingly more natural some elements of the voices are less intelligible at times. This may be the clipping you referred to on the mail list (I don\'t know because I don\'t really have a vocabulary to describe TTS voice quality). What I have noticed is that there are two types of MaryTTS voices, conversely to expectations the ones with the larger data-set appear to be less intelligible. \r\n\r\nWhich if any of the Mary voices are the clearest/cleanest?\r\n\r\nThe goals of eSpeak and MaryTTS are somewhat different, the Mary project appears to be a university research project. Having had a bit of a dig around in the MaryTTS code, I\'ve found that it includes a lot of tools for recording and creating voices. There is also a whole range of effects processing and other tools to amend the vocal output model. Its definitely not a light weight TTS solution, but I don\'t think that was ever the intention.\r\n\r\nI did notice that eSpeak can create static wav files using the -w switch so it probably wins there too.\r\n\r\nWhere MaryTTS or similar projects may win out over eSpeak would be to provide a more suitable voice to those who rely on speech synthesis to be able to speak. I recently heard this TED talk. https://www.ted.com/talks/rupal_patel_synthetic_voices_as_unique_as_fingerprints . The voices featured here appear to be a great improvement over MaryTTS, but I don\'t know what software they are using or if it is open source. ','2022-02-14 13:17:18'),

This was not clear and may lead someone to assume that VNC in itself is secure.\r\n\r\nhttps://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/research/dtg/attarchive/vnc/sshvnc.html\r\n\"VNC uses a random challenge-response system to provide the basic authentication that allows you to connect to a VNC server. This is reasonably secure; the password is not sent over the network. Once you are connected, however, traffic between the viewer and the server is unencrypted, and could be snooped by someone with access to the intervening network. We therefore recommend that if security is important to you, you \'tunnel\' the VNC protocol through some more secure channel such as SSH.\"\r\n\r\nEven the \"reasonably secure\" statement is challenged here:\r\nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_Network_Computing#Security\r\n\"By default, RFB is not a secure protocol. While passwords are not sent in plain-text (as in telnet), cracking could prove successful if both the encryption key and encoded password are sniffed from a network. For this reason it is recommended that a password of at least 8 characters be used. On the other hand, there is also an 8-character limit on some versions of VNC; if a password is sent exceeding 8 characters, the excess characters are removed and the truncated string is compared to the password.\"\r\n\r\nI have also seen VNC security questioned for not requiring a username and password.\r\n\r\nRecommendations:\r\nuse the -localhost option so that only local (and tunneled) connections are allowed\r\nuse ssh tunneling\r\nuse the maximum size password allowed','2022-02-14 13:17:18'),

As you mentioned, the search space is becoming to large to sytematiclly search, so password crakers have evolved. One method they use is to take found words (not just out of a standard dictionary, such as all the words in wikipedia, other languages, leaked password lists, etc.) and try these plus varients like padding with additional characters, combining multiple words together (with and without spaces). In one news story, a password cracking package was breaking passwords that were 55 characters long! https://arstechnica.com/security/2013/08/thereisnofatebutwhatwemake-turbo-charged-cracking-comes-to-long-passwords/\r\nThese passwords were weak (common words strung together like the xkcd advice are particularly vulnerable) https://xkcd.com/936/ but it does show there are no short-cuts in creating a good password, it has to be completely random, mixed cases with symbols and numbers and long!\r\nI would have submitted a responce show, but I think that this is too important, and that you should be the one to say this.\r\n ','2022-02-14 13:17:19'),

I would like to make two additions to your explanations.\r\n\r\n1) Unison in fact does *not* need the GUI installed. To set up the profile, you can also use an editor with the help of the (admittedly longish) documentation. And if used with the options -auto -ui text (it may select -ui text automatically, if no GUI is installed), it will show you the file list on the terminal and ask you for input there if needed.\r\n\r\n2) To be more flexible in what can be synced (and to address your problem of capitalisation), I use the following trick:\r\n- Create a new subdirectory in ~/.unison for each profile (I call them \"-links\" with being the ssh hostname for the remote sync partner). This subdirectory becomes the root directory for your profile.\r\n- Fill that subdir with symbolic links to the items you want to sync. E.g. cd ~/.unison/laptop-links && ln -s /home/myname/Documents docs\r\n- That way the directory to be synced can be called whatever you like, as long as the two symlinks have the same name on both sides.\r\n- This also allows me to sync single files within a directory (e.g. ~/.vimrc) but not the dir itself, and also to sync directories that don’t share the same root, such as ~/docs and /mnt/data/music.\r\n- Lastly, to make it all work, you must tell Unison to follow the symlinks you made. For this, add this to the profile config:\r\nfollow = Regex [^/]+\r\nThe Regex (regular expression) simply matches any character that is not a slash, hence everything on the topmost directory level (until the first slash).\r\n\r\nCheers.','2017-09-09 07:41:25'),

New York, NY: WW Norton &\r\nCompany, inc.\r\n\r\nISBN 0-393-05794-1\r\n\r\nRecipe is on page 232.\r\n\r\n\r\nNeeded equipment: (not in recipe, but it\'ll save you time)\r\n\r\nRolling pins, 1 per person is best\r\nClean counters or cutting boards\r\nTea Towels or Oiled plastic for covering dough\r\n We usually go with the towels to cover.\r\nBrush suitable for use with butter\r\nSkillet (cast iron or nonstick), bigger is better\r\nAn extra skillet & spice grinder if using whole spices\r\nTurner suitable for use on skillet\r\nCouple of mixing bowls\r\nMeasuring spoons\r\nStand mixer or food processor capable of mixing dough (or by hand)\r\nFood scale\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n290g (2c) Whole Wheat Flour, as fresh as possible\r\n(alternately, equal parts Whole Wheat & Unbleached All-Purpose Flour)\r\n6.6g (1t) salt\r\n11.7g (1.5t) dry milk\r\n177g (3/4c) water at room temperature\r\n\r\nThis makes one batch of dough. The filling recipe below fills two\r\nbatches of dough. (We made 4 batches of dough as you may recall.)\r\n\r\n(It is possible to swap half the water with scalded milk that has been\r\ncooled back to lukewarm. We did not do this; we used the dry milk.)\r\n\r\nThe recipe itself calls for a Food Processor or to do it by hand. We\r\nused a stand mixer, so this is somewhat from memory.\r\n\r\nWhisk together all of the dry ingredients first until well-blended. Then\r\nmix in the water. We mixed for about 5 minutes or so (the food processor\r\nsays 45 seconds; the hand method says 10-15 minutes). The dough will be\r\nsmooth, soft, and very slightly sticky. You should be able to handle it\r\neasily.\r\n\r\nLet the dough rest for 30 minutes to 3 hours.\r\n\r\n\r\nMEAT FILLING\r\nWe ended up using a lot more ground spices than whole spices. This is\r\nthe unmodified recipe in the book; it\'s more complicated than the\r\nsimplified version we used. Substituting ground & dried spices is\r\neasier and more portable (we pre-mixed) but you lose flavor.\r\n\r\n28g (2T) of your favorite frying fat\r\nbay leaf\r\n3 whole cloves (or equivalent amount ground)\r\n1 cinnamon stick\r\n~142g (~1c) 1 medium onion, finely chopped\r\n2cm piece of ginger, peeled & minced\r\n3 medium garlic cloves, minced\r\n1/2T coriander seeds (no weight noted)\r\n1/2T cumin seeds (no weight noted)\r\n1/2t ground turmeric\r\n1T plain yogurt (we often use strained (\"Greek\") yogurt)\r\n1T tomato sauce (we often use paste)\r\n\r\n454g (1lb) beef, preferably chuck (85% lean, 15% fat).\r\n Too lean and the mixture is dry; too rich and you\'ll have to drain\r\nout flavor.\r\n\r\n1/8t ground mace\r\n we substitute allspice, even though it\'s not similar at all.\r\n You may just wish to double the nutmeg.\r\n1/8t ground nutmeg, preferably fresh grated\r\n5g (3/4t) salt\r\n1/2t cayenne pepper\r\n recipe calls for 1/4 to 1/2. We recommend 1/2.\r\n1/4c water\r\n\r\n\r\nWhile the dough is resting, start the filling. It will keep 3 days,\r\nand this makes enough to fill TWO batches of dough.\r\n\r\nHeat frying fat over medium heat until hot.\r\nAdd bay leaf, cinnamon stick, and cloves.\r\nFry until the bay leaf gets a bit dark.\r\n(if not using whole spices, skip this step and jump right to the onion.)\r\n\r\nLower the heat (to low), add onion, ginger and garlic; sauté & stir.\r\nIn about 10 minutes onion will darken to medium brown.\r\n\r\nWhile this is going on: Dry-roast coriander & cumin seeds over medium\r\nheat about 2 minutes. They should smell fragrant. Allow them to cool,\r\nthen grind in your spice grinder. If not using whole spices, ignore\r\nthis section.\r\n\r\nAdd coriander, cumin, and turmeric to onion mixture, sauté for 2\r\nminutes; stir constantly. Add yogurt; stir 1 minute. Add tomato sauce;\r\nstir & cook 3 minutes.\r\n\r\nAdd meat, raise heat to medium. Sauté, break up lumps with your\r\nspoon/spatula/turner, until meat is browned.\r\n\r\nAdd mace, nutmeg, salt, cayenne, and water. Lower heat to lowest\r\npossible setting. Cover. Simmer for 45 minutes. If all the water\r\nevaporates, add more a small amount at a time. The mixture should be\r\ndry when you are done.\r\n\r\nLet filling cool, then remove the bay leaf, cinnamon stick, and cloves\r\n(if you used whole spices. They are a pain to fish out; we tend not to\r\nuse whole spices for these three.)\r\n\r\n(Broam\'s note: also the cooking time is a bit much. We didn\'t let it\r\ngo 45 minutes; we cooked it on low until most of the water evaporated,\r\nthen let the mixture cool.)\r\n\r\n\r\n48g (1/4c) clarified butter / ghee\r\n (Broam sez: You can substitute regular unsalted butter, or you can\r\nattempt to clarify it yourself, which is a bit labor intensive. Don\'t\r\nuse vegetable ghee, unless you\'re a vegan.)\r\n\r\n\r\nShape Dough:\r\nDivide dough into 8 even pieces; roll into balls. (The recipe has you\r\nroll into a long rope, then cut. This is not strictly necessary). Work\r\nwith one piece of dough at a time lest the others dry out.\r\n\r\nWith floured fingers, flowered rolling pin, and a floured surface,\r\nflatten the balls of dough and roll into a 12cm (5\") circle. Flour the\r\ndough lightly if it sticks. Once rolled out, brush the excess flour\r\noff. Brush the dough lightly with clarified butter, fold over, and\r\nbrush again. Fold over one more time.\r\n\r\nAfter all the balls are buttered and folded, roll them out again. The\r\nrecipe says that you should be able to roll these into an 18cm (7\")\r\nround but we have never gotten our dough that stretchy.\r\n\r\nPlace 1/4c of the meat filling on top of the dough. Take another piece\r\nand place it on top of the first piece. Fold the edges over 1cm (1/4\")\r\nand press to seal in the filling.\r\n\r\nFlip the filled parathas over and use the rolling pin very gently. The\r\nmeat should not come through the dough.\r\n\r\n(Broam says: Do not stack the parathas when finished. They\'ll stick\r\nand it\'s a *nightmare* to separate them.)\r\n\r\n\r\nFRY The Parathas\r\n\r\nHeat large skillet over medium-low.\r\n\r\nBrush pan with remaining clarified butter.\r\nPlace paratha in (you can cook a few at a time if they\'re small), fry\r\nfor 90 seconds. Brush surface with butter. Flip. Fry 60 seconds.\r\n\r\nThe dough may puff up a bit but will deflate when it\'s removed from\r\nthe heat. (Broam says: ours never do. YMMV).\r\n\r\n\r\nSERVE the Parathas\r\n\r\nCut into 4 wedges. Keep finished parathas warm in a low oven (\"warm\"\r\nsetting) covered with foil while you cook the rest. (You can stack\r\nthem here.)\r\n\r\nCan also be eaten at room temperature. Will keep overnight.','2017-09-09 07:41:25'),

I was almost ready to cover indirection, but finally decided not to. Perhaps next time!\r\n\r\nYour example of \'echo ${!$#}\' failing is, I assume, because Bash performs just one scan for parameter substitutions. In this case, even if it performed two passes, this would resolve to \'echo ${!3}\' which returns nothing.\r\n\r\nI tried this:\r\n\r\n$ set -v -- joy pain bliss; myargc=$#; eval echo \\${!$#}\r\n\r\nwhich does do two passes. First time the backslash is dropped and $# returns 3 and second time Bash executes \'echo ${!3}\' which does nothing. It\'s not illegal this time, but is counter-intuitive.\r\n\r\nThis one returns \'bliss\':\r\n\r\n$ set -v -- joy pain bliss; myargc=$#; ind=myargc; eval echo \\${!$ind}\r\n\r\nBash is pretty cool!','2017-09-09 07:41:25'),

There is one guy at the Raspberry Pi Foundation who is aware of the problem and is going to try to get around to trying to fixing the sound driver. But as it is not broken for most applications and only seems to badly affect this accessibility issue I guess it is low priority. Personally I think using the GPU directly for tts is a good idea anyway as I have had all kinds of problems with ALSA and pulseaudio in the past\r\n\r\nI\'m now working on an Emacspeak server and then a speech-dispatcher module which also use my code library.\r\n\r\nI think speech-dispatcher might already be ok but I suspect it is because the sd espeak module has the audio chunk size set so high that the stuttering doesn\'t occur but it eats up RAM as a result.

So thank you for recording it.\r\n\r\nIn the podcast you discussed what it might take to have audio drama become a viable paying outlet of \"content\". You seemed to focus particularly on making audio drama a first class citizen in the existing marketplaces (e.g. Amazon or iTunes). That is certainly one way to go. However, those places are just retailers, and they retail what is already popular. I don\'t think you can actually count on them to innovate in this space.\r\n\r\nI wonder if a better way to develop a market for audio drama is to build your audience and provide an easy way for fans to pay for content. Crowd sourcing patronage seems to be getting some traction. Patreon, for instance, provides a platform for creators to reach their fans directly and for fans to directly compensate their favorite creators. Snowdrift coop is a platform that might suitable for creative commons style work (assuming it launches successfully). \r\n\r\nIt\'s still a heck of a lot of hard work, but if you followed a patronage model, the the hardwork of building a fan base won\'t get filtered by the business models of the retailers whose interest don\'t necessarily align with either the creators or the fans. Additionally, a patronage model can provide a base for successful creators to make inroads into the more traditional (mainstream) marketplaces.\r\n','2017-09-09 07:41:26'),

Surely there are a lot of listeners just starting out with this stuff and you pick them up right at the beginning, to lead them further on.\r\n\r\nThe 3V3 are sorted out by Mike, so let me comment on the \"speaker\". It\'s worth noting that whenever you say speaker, you actually mean \"buzzer\". The buzzer includes already some electronics to generate the tone, so we hear the beep. With a speaker (or headphone,...) on its own, you only will hear crackling sounds the moment you close or break the circuit. Due to the low resistance of the speaker coil, there can be a high current flowing, which might damage it. So when using a speaker, please add a series resistor or capacitor. \r\n\r\nRegards,\r\nMichael\r\n','2017-09-09 07:41:26'),

(1169,1784,'2015-06-04 14:27:26','Jon Kulp','Open Scores','Thanks Kevin. I agree about the scores, although you can get just about any public-domain scores for free in PDF format from the IMSLP website. The cool thing about these new scores is that you can get the source code and edit it. For example, near the end of the semester I grabbed the Musescore file for the fugue that I talked about in this episode and converted it to Lilypond code, then added a bunch of analytical markup in the code itself, things like text boxes, labels, and different colors for the noteheads to show where the fugue subject appeared, tell what key it had modulated to, etc. With the PDF the best that I could\'ve done would be to scribble all over it. When you have access to the source code you can do this kind of analytical markup much more elegantly. I\'ve also taken bits of these scores and use them to create the midi examples in my counterpoint book. Great projects all around by Kimiko Ishizaka!','2017-09-09 07:41:26'),

Then there are varieties of legumes like French beans, runner beans, beansprouts and the classic mangetout which are fantastic.

My gas hob is at work-top height, which is high for using a wok. When I have a lot of food in mine I need to stand on a stool to do some hearty stirring. I\'m not particularly short but I reckon I\'d feel dwarfed by such an arrangement!\r\n\r\nSo a flat-bottomed wok is a compromise for me - even though the sides don\'t get as hot as they should for true stir-frying.','2017-09-09 07:41:26'),

You can find a never-fail recipe at my blog.\r\n\r\nSadly, most of what you get in average restaurants--the ones I can afford, for example--comes out of a can.\r\n\r\nRegarding bottoms, my wok has a flat area about 6\" in diameter at the bottom, then curves smoothly upward on the sides.

Yes, doing so may ultimately increase the expected lifetime of the drive, but you\'re missing out on the greatest benefits of the SSD by doing so. SSDs are extremely fast for random access patterns, but for sequential operations (such as reading or writing large files) they aren\'t significantly faster than spinning disks. The parts of your system that perform the most random access operations are likely to be swap and /var.

I\'m wondering if there\'s a good way to then take that and \"shake it up a little\" to allow for disconnected wall segments, and such while retaining much of the pleasingness.\r\n\r\nOf course there\'s another possibility: add the notion of \"teleporters\" to the maze. :)\r\n\r\nThanks for the insight and the algorithm.

Very useful.\r\n\r\nFrom my initial researches I wasn\'t sure whether a serial adapter could drive the printer. I don\'t know if it needs flow-control for example. However, I shall continue to investigate.\r\n\r\nI also have a 132-column matrix printer somewhere in the attic, but I think it has a Centronics parallel connector, so I suspect that could be challenge to get working!

I am considering using a pi to serve my HP LJ-2200 printer to my home network.\r\n\r\nThe DEC LN03 uses RS-232/RS-422 for the serial connection. You should be able to use a USB-to-serial converter. I used an LN03 with PC clones and was able to run the serial link as fast as 19200 baud. User manual will indicate how to set serial parameters via dip switches near the data connector.\r\n\r\nI suggest verifying the print engine still works by printing a few test pages before trying to connect to a computer. I think there is a small square white button on the back that initiates printing of a test page.\r\n\r\nIt is probably difficult now to get toner or replacement parts like feed rollers for the LN03. When a nylon gear inside my LN03 fractured, I finally ditched that printer -- after about 20 years of use in a home office.\r\n\r\nBe aware that there are a few different LN03 models. Mine was a rare \"image\" printer that would only accept postscript. The model will determine what driver and settings you need to use.\r\n\r\nThe LN03 always keeps the fuser unit hot. This is a big power consumer and harsh to the mechanics that transport paper and the photo-sensitive band.\r\n\r\nThere used to be USB to parallel converters available for purchase. If you can find one of those you might be able to easily connect to the matrix printer.\r\n\r\n- Bob Evans','2017-09-09 07:41:27'),

I\'m pleased to hear there\'s a good chance of running it from the Pi if it does though.\r\n\r\nThe university I worked at bought a pair of LN03\'s with a VAXcluster in 1987, and I had the job of setting them up back then under VMS. I\'m pretty sure neither of them were \"image\" printers. We later bought an LPS17 I think, and a LPS32, much faster higher volume printers with duplexers. I didn\'t offer to take them home when they were phased out though :-)\r\n\r\nI might have some supplies with the printer, but not much of anything, so it might be a short-lived experiment even if it does still print.\r\n\r\nI need to check out the matrix printer as well, though I don\'t really have a use for it any more, and only one box of line-printer paper!','2017-09-09 07:41:27'),
