All services that made this list of the best transcription services operate under strict nondisclosure policies and let you remove your files from their servers at any time. You can read the complete details in the review of each service. In testing and reviewing transcription services, we asked each company under what conditions it would comply with law enforcement and hand over any user data. ![]() Using human-powered transcription may introduce some privacy concerns. When you choose human-generated transcripts, you can sometimes pay to get a transcriptionist who's educated in a particular industry's jargon, such as legal or medical terms. Transcriptions made by humans are highly accurate, but they're also pricier and typically require a longer turnaround time, although often you have the option to pay extra for a quicker turnaround time. Human-generated transcription services, by contrast, use trained transcriptionists, often more than one, to complete the work. ![]() Rev, Scribie, and TranscribeMe also offer human-powered services. Rev, Otter, Scribie, TranscribeMe, Trint, and Temi (which didn't score high enough to be included in this list of the best transcription services) all offer automated transcription services. If you see an error in the document, click on the time-stamped section to listen to the words, and transcribe that portion on your own. The downside of automated services is that they are far less accurate than when a human does the job.Īutomated transcription services often include access to document editing software which allows you to clean up the text. Services that offer automated transcription sometimes include extra features that may not be free in a human-generated transcript, such as time stamps and basic speaker identification (for example, Speaker 1, Speaker 2). Two primary benefits of using automation are it's fast and it's cheap. Human Transcriptions: What's the Difference?Īutomated transcription services use automatic speech recognition to transcribe an audio file into text.

Automated transcripts come from a machine doing the job instead. Human-generated transcription means a human worker listens to an audio recording and manually types what they hear. In the last decade, the transcription services market has exploded with a variety of companies that provide both automated and human-created transcriptions. Previously, the act of taking recorded speech and turning it into text was tedious and done only manually. Whether you're a legal professional who relies on having recorded depositions turned into text, or a journalist looking to pull that perfect quote from a long interview, you need accurate audio transcription.

What this guide is not is an in-depth guide of every aspect of every modding tool out there. ![]() This guide is aimed at newcomers who might have bought the 64GB Steam Deck and want their games on an SD card. Believe me when I tell you being able to change mod configurations quickly is important if you truly go down the modding rabbit hole. I’m not a fan of this answer because it gives you no way to locally manage your mods on your Steam Deck. I’ve seen a few videos and posts covering this and a lot of times it boils down to, “Just copy your files from your PC and call it a day”. The trouble is that all the modding tools out there are for Windows, so getting up and running may not be so simple to those unfamiliar with Linux and tools like Wine and Lutris. Now with the Steam Deck becoming some people’s first PC gaming experience, you might want to see the Macho Man Randy Savage Dragons for yourselves. Modding Skyrim has evolved over the game’s life. ![]() With player numbers like that a decade later, it’s no wonder Bethesda released the $50 Anniversary Edition compiling a ton of user created content and…fishing? The true reason for its longevity is not the countless re-releases over the years, but in fact one of the most vibrant modding communities in all of gaming. In contrast, the much more recent Elder Scrolls Online MMORPG has a Steam 24-hour peak player count of 18,000. Skyrim is over a decade old, but in spite of that Skyrim Special Edition at the time of writing has a 24-hour peak player count of just over 31,000. The article has been updated with the correction. Update: While Mod Organizer 2 is specialized for Fallout and Elder Scrolls games, it is capable of managing mods for other games using a plugin.

He doesn't even mention electronic aids to small boat navigation including radar, loran, etc. I'm reading (OK, rereading,) Eric Hiscock "Cruising Under Sail", updated in 1981. You and I are "old school" but have adopted several new concepts as they came along. Well, Bob, time will tell as to the usefulness of tablets in onboard navigation. I don't know if MyNOAACharts will ever allow that sort of integration. MX Mariner is working to incorporate the Active Captain markers. I can get it for my android tablet, but not my android phone (MX Mariner is available for both). MyNOAACharts is not available for all devices. I have downloaded MyNOAACharts (some time ago) but have not had a chance to use it while cruising. ![]() MyNOAACharts seems to be very similar to MX Mariner, it may even use the same engine. Of course many of the newest chart plotters have connection with the tablets. I think they will remain as backup and planning for most users. They are also easier to use for navigation. They are faster and integrated with engines, depth sounders, radars etc. Despite the increased use of computers and tablets, the sales of high end chart plotters have increased and not been impacted by these alternatives. The viability of proprietary charts rest on what the chart plotters use. In time these will out-compete the Navionics of the world (and force their prices down) and will incorporate crowd-sourced data like Active Captain. Very useful for a backup chartplotter or at-home planning.

In addition, a tablet is certainly cheaper than a corresponding 10" dedicated plotter.īoth Garmin and Navionics provide download apps for charting, wherein you use their dedicated charts. Since a tablet has a 7" or 10" screen, it looks better than the small screen on my JRC plotter. There have been general discussions on navigation using a tablet. It's FREE and all the charts plus the Coastal Pilot are FREE. I'm curious as to why this app ( MyNOAACharts) hasn't been used discussed and compared to the Garmin and Navionics apps. ![]() I haven't tried this while cruising, but it looks promising.

This was included on an album entitled Country Enough, which was released on Diamond Dust Records in 2008. ![]() He did not release another single until "This Ain't Mexico" in 2008, a self-released single. By the end of the year, Jewell was dropped from Columbia's roster. This album did not perform as well at radio, with its first single ("If She Were Any Other Woman") reaching number 27 on the charts, and the second single ("So Gone") failing to chart entirely. Jewell's second album for Columbia, Times Like These, was released in 2005. This song was followed by the number 38 country single "One Step at a Time". Buddy Jewell sold 500,000 copies and earned a gold certification from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), in addition to producing a second number three country hit in " Sweet Southern Comfort", which also reached number 40 on the pop charts. It was the first single from his self-titled debut album, which was produced by former RCA Records artist Clint Black and was recorded in ten days. This song reached number three on the country charts and 29 on the pop charts. It became the highest-debuting single by a new country artist since the singles charts were first tabulated via Nielsen SoundScan in 1990. On May 5, 2003, two days after his win, Jewell's debut single " Help Pour Out the Rain" was shipped to radio. He became the show's first winner that season, and was soon signed to a recording contract with Columbia Records Nashville. In 2003, Jewell competed in the first season of the television singing competition Nashville Star. Nashville Star and major-label music career ![]() ![]() Jewell also self-released albums entitled One in a Row and Far Enough Away in 20 respectively. Among the songs that Jewell recorded demos for were " Write This Down" for George Strait, " A Little Past Little Rock" for Lee Ann Womack, " The One" for Gary Allan and " You're Beginning to Get to Me" for Clay Walker. As a demo singer, he recorded more than 5000 demos. He later decided to move to Nashville, Tennessee in 1993, and found work two years later as a demo singer. Īfter winning the competition, he competed on Star Search where he won Male Vocalist on several episodes. He won the competition's top prize, which was an opening slot for the band. He later entered a singing competition that was sponsored by the band Alabama, whose music was also an inspiration to him. After touring with White Oak for four years, he moved to Dallas, Texas, where he took a role in a gunfighting show at Six Flags over Texas. This band was sponsored by a booking agency whose roster also included Canyon and a band founded by a then-unknown Trace Adkins. There, he discovered a band called White Oak, which was seeking a new lead singer. ![]() Jewell later moved to Camden, Arkansas at age 21 in pursuit of a musical career. Jewell majored in television and radio in college, although he left in his junior year to marry, despite the marriage only lasting two-and-a-half years. By age fifteen, Jewell had also taught himself how to play Johnny Cash's "I Still Miss Someone." After graduating from Osceola High School, he attended Arkansas State University where he was a member of Pi Kappa Alpha. Jewell also listened to the music that his father, also named Buddy, played for him, and was taught by his uncle Clyde how to play " What a Friend We Have in Jesus". He began playing guitar after buying one from a schoolmate during childhood, and saved the money that he earned bagging groceries to buy guitar lesson books. Another album, Times Like These, followed in 2005.īuddy Jewell was born in Lepanto, Arkansas on April 2, 1961. Signed to Columbia Records in 2003, Jewell made his debut on the American country music scene with the release of his self-titled album, which produced the singles " Help Pour Out the Rain" and " Sweet Southern Comfort".

This doesn’t incorporate the cost of labor, but is a very handy tool for those undertaking jobs professionally, providing a ballpark figure that could be quoted to clients. We’d strongly recommend this route to anyone starting out with this sort of software.Īnother thing to note about the room design process is that Home Designer Pro immediately starts to create a cost sheet of the materials used in your plans. You can also seek out the Space Planning Assistant on the software, which will help you create exactly how many floors, bedrooms, and bathrooms you’d like, and give you a rough 2D plan. ![]() That includes selecting a template for a roof rather than designing one yourself, and putting automatic ceilings in place if you need them. These intricate details are evidence of how Home Designer Pro is well suited to professionals, though they might be a little overwhelming to a casual user.Īs we mentioned before, there’s no guide that automatically opens within the initial stages of this software, although there are a few ways to make the process easier if you’re feeling lost. The software has fully editable framing, including the ability to modify joists, rafters, trusses, beams, and more as well as letting you pick between steel, lumber, and other engineered materials for your build. Once you’ve made sense of the initial design tools, and created walls and a floor, then you can choose to get as technical as you like with the details. There’s also the option to view your home in a ‘Dollshouse view’, which we found to be the most helpful option, as it gives a cross-section of both the exterior and interior of your building. (Image credit: Chief Architect) Home Designer Pro: 2D mode and room designĪs with many home design software, the default mode for designing in Home Designer Pro is a 2D birdseye angle, though there is the option to toggle between 2D and 3D modes at all times. The interface itself is made up of a busy-looking navigation bar at the top, and a further sidebar on the right-hand side that allows you to zoom in and out of your design. ![]() Unlike rival programs such as HomeStyler (opens in new tab), there’s no tutorial to whizz you through these first stages, and the process of learning how to navigate the site is left down to the user. This is likely to be daunting for any beginners to software of this type, especially since there’s also a lot of buttons to explore initially. Once the software itself opens up, the user will be met with a blank page. Regardless of whether you try before you buy or just dive in, you’ll be sent a key code in order to download the software and start from there. There is a free trial option available, which lasts for 30 days, which is a good route to go down before you splash the (serious) amount of cash needed for the full version. If you decide to go for the rental option, then you’ll own the software after 12 months and be entitled to free upgrades throughout the process. It can be downloaded from their website (opens in new tab), with the option to either rent the software or buy it outright. Home Designer Pro is developed by the Chief Architect brand and is used by builders, designers, architects, and home users alike. Home Designer Pro review: Installation and interface ![]() ![]() ![]() 2013 Mazaheri and Ebrahimi 2011), among them also the DelFly of TU Delft (de Croon et al. Multiple bio-inspired FWMAVs have been developed worldwide (e.g., Nakata et al. 2018), thus serving as an inspiration to the development of flapping-wing MAV (FWMAV) designs (Shyy et al. On the other hand, flapping-wing propulsion of natural fliers has shown extraordinary flight capabilities at low Reynolds numbers (Cheng et al. Well-established aircraft design concepts apply to fixed and rotatory wing configurations, but these suffer from a degradation in performance when scaled down in size (Jones and Babinsky 2010). Different classes of MAVs can be distinguished: fixed wing, rotatory wing, and flapping wing (Mueller 2001 Mueller and DeLaurier 2003). ![]() These MAVs typically fly at very low speeds or even in hovering conditions, but high manoeuvrability and flight efficiency are desirable for wind gusts rejection and increased flight endurance, respectively. Graphic abstractĪn increasing interest in the development of micro air vehicles (MAVs) has been seen in recent years due to the wide range of missions, where they can be employed, from search and rescue activities to security and surveillance applications. Furthermore, experiments have been carried out in both tethered and free-flight conditions, allowing an unprecedented comparison between the aerodynamics of the two conditions. Experiments have been performed at different settings (flow speed, flapping frequency, and body angle) that are representative of actual flight conditions, and the effect of reduced frequency on the wake topology is investigated. Particle trajectories are determined via Lagrangian particle tracking and information of different phases throughout the flapping cycle is obtained by means of a phase-averaging procedure applied to the particle tracks. To achieve the required visualization domain (which in the present experiments amounts to a size of 60,000 cm 3), use is made of robotic particle image velocimetry, which implements coaxial illumination and imaging in combination with the use of helium-filled soap bubbles as tracer particles. The experimental data are being used to improve computational tools for high-lift wings with integrated powered-lift technologies.The objective of this experimental investigation is the volumetric visualization of the near wake topology of the vortex structures generated by a flapping-wing micro air vehicle. Jet-induced effects are the largest at the most inboard station for all (three) velocity components due in part to the larger inboard slot height. High downwash velocities correlated with the enhanced lift for the 60deg flap cases with blowing. Flowfield results and the general trends are very similar for the two blowing cases at nozzle pressure ratios of 1.37 and 1.56. The 7-hole probe results further quantified two known swirling regions (downstream of the outboard flap edge and the inboard/outboard flap juncture) for the 60deg flap cases with blowing. At 10deg angle of attack the wake surveys were completed with a slat and a 60deg flap deflection. At 0deg angle of attack the surveys were completed with 0deg and 60deg flap deflections. Three model configurations were investigated. Off-body measurements were obtained with a 7-hole probe rake survey system. The test was performed at the NASA Langley 14 x 22 Foot Subsonic Tunnel at low speeds. Wake Measurement Downstream of a Hybrid Wing Body Model with Blown Flaps Flow-field measurements were obtained in the wake of a full-span Hybrid Wing Body model with internally blown flaps. ![]() |
