Mumble for encrypted Skype-like conversations

MICHAEL W. DEAN ·

2012/03/16

I’ve recently discovered a program called “Mumble” that’s great for chatting with friends. It’s like Skype, but more secure (according to everything I’ve read), and has much higher audio quality than Skype. It was invented by computer gamers so they can talk in groups while gaming across the miles. Neema and I use Mumble for … Continue reading "Mumble for encrypted Skype-like conversations"

(Watch full screen at 720 P for best audio for the before and after tests.) Changing the Tube on the inexpensive ART MP USB Tube Preamp gives a MUCH better sound.

THE ONLY THREE KINDS OF PEOPLE IN THE WORLD Tom Robbins, that self-congratulatory shroom-addled writer of “clever” fiction for disaffected teenage girls once said, “There are only two kinds of people in the world: those who think there are two types of people in the world, and those who know better.” People love to put … Continue reading "THE ONLY THREE KINDS OF PEOPLE IN THE WORLD"

FLAC is a freeware audio codec that allows you to make the file size of a WAV much smaller with NO loss of quality. This makes it easier to send huge files over the Internet to collaborate, outsource, or Feensource editing.

MICHAEL W. DEAN ·

2012/01/24

The Zoom H2 handy recorder is an amazing recording device. As are the other Zoom devices that have come out, the Zoom H4, Zoom H4n, the Zoom Q3HD. All are what I call (and coined the phrase for, in 2008) the “Studio on a stick.” I use a Zoom H2 on a gooseneck stand to … Continue reading "Getting better sound out of a Zoom H2 (or any recording device or microphone)"

Don’t Let PayPal Freeze Your Funds

MICHAEL W. DEAN ·

2012/01/18

PayPal, as useful as it is, has a nasty habit of freezing funds of people who seek donations for a worthy project but don’t have a government permission slip to do so. There have been several high-profile examples lately of PayPal freezing the donations of everything from buying toys for sick kids to protecting the … Continue reading "Don’t Let PayPal Freeze Your Funds"

2012/01/13

I’ve tried putting a podcast episode on YouTube before. I figured, “It can’t hurt, and it might get more listeners who stumble across it on there based on keywords.” I’ve seen it done before, and thought “How hard can it be?” Our Freedom Feens podcast is audio only.

2012/01/07

The other day this article called “Drugs, Guns and Madness in the Ron Paul Revolution” came out on the inaccurately named neo-con blog, “Accuracy in Media.” It’s so stunningly stupid, you must read it. An Excerpt: Ron Paul didn’t do as well as the media thought he would in Iowa, but he is moving on … Continue reading "Neo-con right-wing hit piece against Ron Paul that’s so silly it could have been from The Onion"

This mini air compressor is going to extend my lifespan!

2012/01/04

I used to spend tons of money on canned air. I use it to clean my keyboard, to clean the inside of my computer, to blow out the clinging dust from my bag-less vacuum cleaner, and a lot of other things. Canned air is expensive, it really ads up, and it’s really toxic….People even huff … Continue reading "This mini air compressor is going to extend my lifespan!"

They’ve also been throttling BitTorrent, which I use to … Continue reading "Darned Optimum"
