A basic dictaphone and mp3 player.

It records with horrible static with both its in-built and provided microphone, but its mp3 playback is spectacular. Its utterly shit mp3 interface, slow song switching and no shuffle make it basically useless as a player.

I bought this lower-sized version because it mentioned having a lithium battery. It does not, which pisses me off to no end.

While this works, it is definitely not recommended. Buy something else, even if it costs more.

There is no name brand or model identification on this device or its documentation.

Getting the most out of Khan Academy

2016-07-06

HOWTO, intelligence, learning, my writing, writing

Khan Academy is an online education tool. It does not lead into any degree, just into some reasonable capability.

It isn’t perfect, but it is certainly a good start to get you the basics and as a tool to hone your skills for a real-world class.

.. but the problem is.. how do you get the most out of it when it’s all you have/do?

Perhaps this applies elsewhere, but my bias for this writing is with their website.

I bought a scale, hopefully that’ll prompt me to resurrect my Health and Fitness project.
Progress with Khan Academy has gone well.
- Their website fucked up again, but logging out and restarting my browser fixed it.
- Learn to make a fucking website, people.
