• HPR4400: Isaac Asimov: Other Asimov Novels of Interest

  This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. Isaac Asimov is best known for two series, the Foundation series and the Robot series, and he eventually tied them together. But he also wrote some stand-alone novels that are quite good, and I want to discuss them here. They are The End Of Eternity, The Gods Themselves, and Nemesis.

• HPR4399: gpg-gen-key

  This show has been flagged as Explicit by the host. More than ten years ago I studied the lecture recordings of "Introduction to Cryptography" Introduction to Cryptography by Christof Paar - Invidious by Professor Paar Christof Paar - Wikipedia, which are absolutely amazing! These lectures will learn you how the most popular encryption algorithms work. The scripts I mentioned in their current versions are: tool/gpg-gen-key at main - oxo/tool - Codeberg.org tool/gpg-bu-key at main - oxo/tool - Codeberg.org tool/gpg-pass-vfy at main - oxo/tool - Codeberg.org Search the history for commit 95408d31c2 (gpg-gen-key) and dd608f9bd6 (gpg-bukey and gpg-pass-vfy) for the versions at the moment of recording.Provide feedback on this episode.

• HPR4398: Command line fun: downloading a podcast

  This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. Kevie, from the TuxJam podcast, continues his look at audio tools on the command line; this time focusing on acquiring audio files from an RSS feed. Save the latest file from a feed: wget `curl RSS_FEED | grep -o 'https*://[^"]*FILE_EXTENSION' | head -1` To get the latest episode of TuxJam wget `curl https://tuxjam.otherside.network/feed/podcast/ | grep -o 'https*://[^"]*ogg' | head -1` However if you want the files from the whole feed: wget `curl RSS_FEED | grep -Eo 'https*://[^"]*FILE_EXTENSION' | sort -u | xargs` To get every episode of TuxJam: wget `curl https://tuxjam.otherside.network/feed/podcast/ | grep -Eo 'https*://[^"]*ogg' | sort -u | xargs` If you wish to specify the directory to save the file in then use -P /directory after wget. To download the TuxJam feed and place the files in a directory called Podcasts in your home folder you would use: wget -P ~/Podcasts `curl https://tuxjam.otherside.network/feed/podcast/ | grep -Eo 'https*://[^"]*ogg' | sort -u | xargs` For more in this mini-series of audio command line tools then see: hpr4249 :: Audio Streams on the Command Line hpr4287 :: Schedule audio recordings on the command line hpr4294 :: Schedule audio recordings on the command line - A bit of fine tuning Provide feedback on this episode.

• HPR4397: Transfer files from desktop to phone with qrcp

  This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. How does it work? qrcp binds a web server to the address of your Wi-Fi network interface on a random port and creates a handler for it. The default handler serves the content and exits the program when the transfer is complete. When used to receive files, qrcp serves an upload page and handles the transfer. The tool prints a QR code that encodes the text: http://{address}:{port}/{random_path} Most QR apps can detect URLs in decoded text and act accordingly (i.e. open the decoded URL with the default browser), so when the QR code is scanned the content will begin downloading by the mobile browser. (Notes taken from https://github.com/claudiodangelis/qrcp released under the MIT license.
