I've worked with some GPS tracking hardware, and they're usually much bulkier and require much larger batteries than a 2050 cell. If I had to guess, I would say your wrist device had one purpose: to make sure your wrist was inside it.
Your phone app probably took care of any and all tracking required. That wrist device simply detected when you cut through that copper band, breaking the circuit, and alerted your phone via bluetooth. Your phone has all of the requisite tracking hardware, but it's not physically connected to you. Leave it behind, and you'd be out of quarantine!
...But not if they had a device attached to your body, which could detect if it's band had been disconnected.

Hi Dave, appreciate the feedback. I just finished editing a video of me creating a natural aquarium. I will post a link to it here in the comments once I publish it. I mainly wanted to explain how this hobby is accessible to everyone and that the closer you get to how a natural system actually works, the healthier your aquarium will be as well as lowering maintenance. Cheers

Hi minnix,
I found your show very interesting and great to listen to.
I have a degree in Zoology, so am acquainted with some of the stuff you were talking about, but have never kept fish myself, so a lot was new to me. I'm not sure I have the resources to start now, but the idea of building a complete ecosystem is very attractive!
I hope you'll do more shows on this subject!
Thanks,
Dave

I was wondering why people who do podcasting buy sensitive condenser microphones. To understand it is recommended to watch 5 seconds of this video.
The microphone in action, when you spin it away from your mouth https://youtu.be/qjCJbhjFYiA?t=157
I used a dynamic microphone for TEAMS calls. TEAMS I guess, has some noise cancelling in the software as well. While I could hardly understand the person speaking to me, because of the lawn mower outside my window, the mower was not heard by the other person.
Whats the difference between dynamic and condenser microphones: https://musicianshq.com/whats-the-difference-between-dynamic-and-condenser-microphones/

Hello,
loved the show! It is sometimes nice to remember where we came from, to better appreciate what we have now.
Just one thought: Could the "second delete" key have been the carriage return key? Line feed and returning to the first character of a line are separate signals after all. Or at least they were back then.

Just went back to this well remembered show, and used it to build an eight node cluster of Pi4s in a 4U rack. One controller and seven nodes. Great show. Easy to follow.

For future long format shows, I've included this simple "how to" video for Mumble users. It covers "Toggle Self Mute" and "Push To Talk" keybindings. We should really have some kind of reminder during these events to help with the "frantic keyboard noise" issues.

I know this is late, but I was traveling when it came out and I'm just catching up now. Dave made a comment that it sounded like I was reading from a journal when he commented on my show about Southern Arizona. Indeed, that has been my practice, going back to a trip to San Francisco in 1979 where I got engaged to my lovely wife. I think it is well worth the effort to keep your memories alive. Now that I am getting up in years I have decided that I don't need more stuff, I just want more memories. So I keep a journal on all of my trips, and I plan to keep doing it.

Great interview! Thanks for this. I followed the tip about downloading the Funkwhale app for Android and doing anonymous authentication on open.audio. Pretty nice! Using the "radios" you can get some nice tunes. I have tried to install Funkwhale a long long time ago, but failed. In the end I just set up mpd and listen through the http output. This show definitely renews my interest. I also enjoyed your brief discussion about copyright, which you said you should continue over a pint, sensibly. I would have a comment on that, but it would be too long for this, so it may come in some other form.

Do you leave home with this device? If so, are you arrested for having that device? I imagined myself being arrested if I walked around with something like this. Thank you for providing the show.

You could listen to hpr 3477 and hpr 3537 they explain running forth on arduino boards. I'm using flashforth an explanation on this excellent implimintation of this forth can be found at flashforth.com. This is not a sketch, its a forth that runs on the board and allows interactive control of the microcontroller.

I do keep the project that I work on, including the karaoke machine. What I don't do is use it for the intended function, so it is used for the tape and 8 track portion of the device. At least one of the microphone inputs work, as that is how I recorded to the cassette tape.

I have dismantled a few cassette players in the past. The memories make me shudder, but I thought the pieces were neat.
I never have repaired one. I repaired a lot of chewed up cassette tapes though, albeit stretched or with missing sections.
