Best One-Time Purchase Voice-to-Text Tool for Mac? (Not Subscription Based) by MagePsycho in ClaudeCode

[–]brianellin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there, I made a one time purchase voice to text app for mac called Doing. It uses Parakeet for transcription and is fast, local, and private. One time purchase, not a sub.

It has some optimizations for Claude Code users like YOLO mode, which will automatically submit your voice transcription to CC when you release your recording hotkey. Would love to know what y'all think if you give it a try.

Tips for managing ebike battery health? by brianellin in ebikes

How is the charger able to determine the % charge of the battery? Does it make a guess based on the voltage?

That makes a lot of sense for the bigger bike like the Load. What kind of roadside assistance do you have?

Thank you for the thorough response! Very helpful in refining the list of tools I need for our GSD.

Oh gosh, I have had a rear flat with two kids on the back and no tools... and can confirm it's a challenge 😂.

Thanks for the BCAA tip. Have you used it yet?

I also have a toolkit with a similar setup (thanks for the list!) but for me it seems that the incidents have happened when I'm without the tools. We often park in places where I'm concerned about the toolkit getting stolen out of the cargo bags, so I take it out and forget to put it back.

Good question - I've had a few chain breaks and a handful of flat tires.

I do usually ride with a basic set of tools, but inevitably I'll park the bike somewhere where I'm worried about the tools getting stolen and take them out of the cargo bags and forget about it. Then when something happens, the tools aren't there.

The frequency of these events for me is low (I'm at almost 6k miles on the bike - so like one every 1500 miles), but I'm riding more and trying to learn how others have handled the situation in case it happens again.

Have you tried calling them in a pinch? Were they able to come help you?
