Hi all,

Well, maybe I should have stayed out of Russ' Red Room but I can imagine couples... well you get the point. But acquiring a taste for it seems a reach

That is hilarious @Byter
Those two quotes combined are Win!

Lol, I don't know, I won the contest so I chose flavors that were unlike anything I already had. I didn't think it would LITERALLY taste like suntan lotion.

Ok, now that explanation I can understand.

I can't stand the taste of black licorice and I kept hearing people talk about how great anise vapes are, especially Pluid.

When I first one a credit from Vaping Watch, I noticed that he has a couple of flavors that are his own brand and one of which is WTF??? which has some absinthe but not nearly as strong as Pluid, so I figured WTF, the best time to try something I'd never consider spending my own money on is when it is free.

Turns out I like WTF???. Actually vaping it at this very moment Don't think I'd like Pluid, but who knows... maybe I'll try it just to find out...

I've been wondering about absinthe tastes like. I've never had it. So licorice? Reminds me of Jagger. (Cough syrup and motor oil)

@dork If its not to late, I'd suggest Makers Mark Burbon. It is the best despite what Jack and Jim might think. And if not a bourbon guy, and you did say whiskey, then Wisers Deluxe. Tastes as good as Crown at least at half the cost. I don't drink any more but when I did these were my favs.

That sounds interesting.
What is this called and where can I find more info on this?
Thanks!

Yea I know google is your friend here BUT I don't want to download something and get a bunch of viruses. I'd rather go with something someone know something about.

It is just in OS X. I'm running Mavericks and I don't know when it started, but it is in Mavericks at the very least.

If you have a Mac, just hit the Fn key twice in a text area and a little microphone icon will come up (sometimes it takes a couple of seconds to initialize, and then you just start talking. So far the only thing it doesn't do is punctuation, but there may be ways to do it, I just haven't looked yet.

Here is a page describing how to turn it on and use it:

Brought to you by Siri. I think that's the speech recognition engine. But with Mac you can download the entire DB and better rule handling vs phone.

 

[Byter]

uh huh

Oh, you're killing me. If only I could ... well never mind. Wife just sent me to the store for mushrooms. So, see you guys in a few.

Actually @Ld3441 I'm really glad that you asked the question because it made me look at that page and now I can see that I can do things like adding commas, periods, new lines, new paragraphs and even smiley and frowney emoticons.

I've never tried Jaeger, but after seeing your comment I don't know that I'd ever want to, but I looked at it's description and it looks similar to the description of WTF and Pluid.

Yep, I have that option enabled and the dictation is pretty fast and it self corrects so it is not uncommon for it to back up and make changes. Really impressed with it's accurracy. Absolutely kicks Dragon's ass.

I didn't see what he wrote before he self-edited, but I'm guessing his thoughts were getting either horney or disgusting.

That was @Byter , not me.
I'm on my best behavior in here.

It was the same message. My comments ended up in you quote and I corrected that. I'm not being disgusting. Couple kissing is the only way I think anyone would actually taste sun tan lotion.

After getting back from getting c

Just looking for some thoughts/opinions here...

Since VU Live has started I wanted to see what it was about. I have never before seen any vape type shows and was curious. Of course since I am deaf it makes things a bit more interesting.... or not. I can of course follow chat but not what anyone is saying "live" on the show. It was a bit confusing to me but I sat through it anyway trying to figure things out. I then sent a PM to Smokie asking if it were possible to caption these shows which got me nowhere.

I do know laws were passed last year (maybe the year before) that videos etc. had to have caption. I don't know if that would even apply here or what it would take to provide caption. Surely with today's technology, it wouldn't be that difficult but I could be wrong.

So my questions for you guys are... Do you think Vape Shows should have an option for captions? Would it be that difficult? Am I missing out on something or am I just as well for not knowing? LOL

The only way I can think of which may not give great results: Pipe the shows audio through a speech to text conversion engine such as Dragon Dictate. All shows on TV that are broadcast and have captions either are pre-recorded or aired with a delay to give the caption person time to extrapolate what was said. I doubt you will ever get the INTERNET to do it unless it was done while the video was being recorded and that is possible.

 

[Ld3441]

Ok all, thanks to all that replied. I appreciate it and won't continue this here since it is really not of interest to most.
I was just curious and knew someone here was likely to know.
I am not looking to cause any problems was just hopeful to join in if I could.

Carry on......

 

[Byter]

i don't know what i did.

You didn't do anything particularly. I found it funny. If only I could give the background but it would take too much space and probably wouldn't be funny to you guys... Didn't mean to confuse.

@Ld3441 read post one I think Kelli has the right take on fitting in. I do not fit in anywhere even here but I come here due to the premise.

I have read post one and just about all that follows. I may not post a lot but I like it here, even you. LOL
I fit in here in many ways and all of you bring many smiles and laughs to my day. Thanks for that!
Not sure why I got so chatty today.

I thought your idea was a good one. Audio feeding PC based speech recognition. Do you know if it has been done?

I am not technical at all. If I were told how to do this I'd not know what you were talking about.

LMAO @MrScaryZ !!! Are you scared of me?

 

[adk1989]

Btw, I sold my ipv3 and bought a sigeli 150w art today...what a fantastic mad. They have outdone themselves with this one

I only know enough to think its possible, not how to do it. But MrScary and Hazy know. If it hasn't been done, one of them should patent the idea!

 

[Byter]

Nice! How's it Vape? How much power have you tested? I've always wonder how the mega power things go.

Or better do what all the most famous people in computing have done "Bill Gates" - Steve Jobs .. Steal it or market it is a better way to say it.
Wait for me to invent it take the idea and sell it and make money while I sue you but your already rich and don't care,

 

[MrScaryZ]

So you traded one MOD for another that has the same Chipset in it?
Dude thats insane...

 

[MrScaryZ]

No,not scared. haha please stopping asking questions that require any thought.. haha j/j I was kinda tripping out on the movie Nightcrawler you brought me back to sanity

 

[Ld3441]

I'll stop asking questions... promise.
Sanity isn't all it's cracked up to be.

 

[adk1989]

I hits it at 150...it handled it like a champ. Very warm vape! Awesome though

Pretty much, I love the ipv3 but I was ready for something new, had the ipv3 since black friday and just felt like trading

 

[MrScaryZ]

Its a input only problem. Microphone or other source you could do it right now if your soundcard supports it. Most of the laptop quality soundcards do not.
Make sense? yeah people do it all the freaking time but then if they do it already why would they care to think about it in any other way but what everyone would do.. What do they get as output is quite fucked up. ModEnvy ----> Speech Engine = dear god why do they say "Fuck" constantly

 

[MrScaryZ]

I was just curious I like the Red Sigelei its pretty

 

[adk1989]

I went with the silver. I'm rough on things and the silver tends to hide any scratches better

 

[MrScaryZ]

ModEnvy ---> to search Engine ----> Black Sabbath baking track ---> Speech to text Engine = "Generals gathered in their masses"
you will get Ozzy too or some BlackSabbath song in the background or a variant

 

[MrScaryZ]

Im too high to fix that

 

[Midniteoyl]

I really am not sure, I'll ask about it once again for you Ld, see if I can get some kind of answer I'll pm you any details on it I can come up with anything.

Theres a study out that that says youtubers can gain ~23% more viewers if they include captions..

 

[MrScaryZ]

My mods are the ugliest things accept a few Mech's I have never touched. If I use it I fuck it up and it looks like a "War Relic" People say things all the time what the hell did you do to it.

I learned something new. One would think that it was automatic if technology really had improved as much as the Illusion would present.

The Closed Captioning for youtube is done in software.. many are now. Even Media Center had captioning..
