This is a computerized system which provides audio programming for me at home. It uses 5 thrift-store salvaged computers running Slackware Linux in different rooms of the house, all networked through NFS.
The time and temperature system automatically uses lynx every hour to get National Weather Service data and then uses grep to extract the text string for the temperature. For the time, NTP is used to keep the time synced to greenwich mean time.
Then, the flite text-to-speech program converts the time and temperature data to speech which is saved in a wav file and then is inserted into the audio playlist of music. The Cmus command line music player is used to play back ogg files transcribed from phonograph records.

Learn how to make your Apple Mac sings through Terminal, just see what happens when I paste the scripts, I’ve put them here, and I explain what’s the functions of many scripts:

-”say” this will make the Terminal speaks the text after that; example (copy & paste into terminal): say o Apple Mac User
-”osascript” You can use osascript to call System Events to trigger menu actions, keystrokes, and dialog box navigation all via SSH
-”using “(voice)” you can change the default voice (just for the script) to speak something you wrote; example: using “Pipe Organ”

Here is the songs, came on let’s try:

say -v Good oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

The “Thin Client” method of computer networking is a well-established technology
by which old, used or donated computers are used simply as a terminal to access
the full computing power of a new and powerful server in the back room as though
it were that server. The Thin Client network ensures that each terminal, regardless
of its own computing characteristics, delivers the speed and capability of the
server, so each user experiences top quality, smooth, fast computing. It’s a
cost-effective solution — made even more affordable because Linux is involved.

This is a comprehensive guide to building and installing “generic” UNIX software distributions under Linux display text on terminals, and makes possible support for different terminal hardware without the need for special drivers. The terminfo libraries are located in /usr/share/terminfo on modern Linux distributions. The terminfo database has largely supplanted the older termcap and the totally obsolete termlib ones. This is usually of no concern for program installation except when dealing with a package that requires termcap. Most Linux distributions now use terminfo, but still retain the older termcap libraries for compatibility with legacy applications (see /etc/termcap). Sometimes there is a special compatibility package that needs to be installed to facilitate use of

Just showing off Linux Mint to my friends and to whoever else sees this video.

I didn’t care to edit, so don’t cry if it’s not perfect, kthxbai.

All of the software shown, including Linux Mint, is completely free. In fact most of the software came with the installation, the rest was downloaded through the terminal.

I recorded this video with recordmydesktop, which I downloaded for free off the terminal.
