Does anyone know the terms for traditional in-ear earphones that sit slightly outside your ear canal vs the ones fashionable nowadays that you stick all the way in with foam or rubber caps? Cannot find any consistent names to distinguish these even though they are totally different.

I cannot use the ones you stick all the way inside, but it's really difficult to find search terms for the traditional kind.

EDIT: Searching for earbuds or earphones doesn't work, shows ones that go all the way in. I'm trying to find the other kind?

EDIT 2: FOUND IT! Apparently they are called "flathead" earphones?

Etwas mehr Vielfalt im Radio nützt uns allen
Unser Sendungsmachender Victor Labra Holzapfel hat Großes vor. Während öffentlich-rechtliche Sender mehrsprachige und kulturübergreifende Formate mehr und mehr aus ihren Programmen drängen, will er mit den Radio-Projekten des SIK e.V. auf coloRadio interkulturelle Vielfalt für mindestens 9.000 Minuten pro Jahr hörbar mach

Außerdem wollten wir wissen, mit welchen Geschichten sie selbst in diesem Jahr ihr Publikum glücklich machen

Die Linke sammelt Unterschriften gegen Kürzungen im Dresdner Nahverkehr
Das Gute an der Politik in einer Demokratie ist, dass man ihr nicht machtlos ausgesetzt ist. In Dresden stehen momentan schmerzhafte Einschnitte bei den Dresdner Verkehrsbetrieben DVB zur Debatte.

@mosgaard @amadeus if you just want distraction-free editing, you may want to look at #VScodium [1], #neovim [2] or even #NvChad [3] for editing depending on how you feel like and what suits you best.

  • I recommend using #Markdown for Text until you want to turn it into something printable (unless you know #LaTeX), but noone's gonna judge you if you prefer @libreoffice to get a script written.

If you want or need to switch computers rather often, consider buying a SATA (or NVMe) - SSD with DRAM-Cache and a matching external enclosure and install your #distro of choice on that instead, as unlike #Windows, basically all #Linux distros allow installations on external drives.
-Don't forget to use #FullDiskEncryption!

If you need to share your work with others or sync it across devices, consider @nextcloud / #nextcloud.

  • If you don't have any admin already in your organization.and it's permissible but you don't want to setup your own, consider @monocles / #monoclesOcean and @Stuxhost for a fully-managed Nextcloud at reasonable prices.

As for #audio I'm shure you know #audacity and #LMMS...

If you use the terminal rather often, consider setting up some nifty aliases to make things faster.

  • For example if you want to just check if something is reachable, i.e. internet / network connection works, consider adding function isup() { ping -a -b -c 1 -D "$@"; } to your .bash_aliases file in your $HOME directory so if you use i.e. isup duckduckgo.com it'll do a single run of ping to reach said domain/FQDN/IP...

But the final #ProTip I can give you is to #backup your $HOME-directory under /home/yourusername because in it's hidden subdirectories, espechally $HOME/.config/ are usually all the settings for your applications stored so in case you need to setup a new machine or restore one from backups, this is where all the minor changes of yours to make your system work best for you are being stored.

  • You may need to press Ctrl+H IN THE File Manager to see hidden files.

  • For backups, tools like #DéjàDup make it easy to setup, backup and restore your files as you want or need, including encryption and deduplication.

I hope that'll help you not only get started but also get the maximum efficiency out of your distro as a creative tool without fuss.

As a person who has been around professional audio for over 25 years, I very rarely make product recommendations. There are just so many factors on why one product might work better for me than for someone else. There are products that have a better chance of working for someone over another alternative based on technical knowledge and quality of the components.

All of this to say; my Kali Audio LP6 nearfield monitors, as fed from a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 USB interface from the PC, consistently impress me with how amazing they sound. The sound is detailed yet listenable. The imaging blows me away.

I don't have a treated room. I have the monitors on stands on my desk about 3' from my ears in a triangle configuration. It just works.
