  • I'm not sure if this fits but here is mine:

    I want to get away from Samsung but the "Sound Assistant" app let's me control the volume of every app, kind of like a mixer. Sometimes an app doesn't have a mute option, I can set the volume of that app to 0 without effecting the volume of whatever music I'm listening to.

    I also like to listen to my local police scanner and music at the same time. I can set the volume of the scanner app low enough to not really bother the music but loud enough that if something happens I can still hear it and pause the music.

    I can't believe Samsung and their app is the only way, but I haven't found an alternative.

  • Anuto Tower Defense

    Pretty decent time killer if you like TD games

    Retro games

    This one because nostalgia

    40 Puzzles

    This came with some linux distro and I was able to find it on f-droid. Some of the games are better than others. Lots to choose from.

  • I haven't seen these mentioned but they are kinda niche though. I use them for work more than personal usecase but maybe someone else finds them useful.

    Copy on select - highlighted text is automatically copied

    Snap links - open multiple links or check several boxes using a click-drag interface

  • I think sox is what you want

    I went ahead and asked a free AI how to use sox and played audio to trigger a script. Probably won't be 100% accurate but maybe send you down the right path. Good luck.

    1. Install 'sox' if you haven't already. You can use the package manager of your Linux distribution to install it.
    2. Open a terminal and use the 'rec' command from 'sox' to continuously listen to the audio input:
       
          
      sox -d -t .wav - silence 1 0.1 3% 1 1.0 3%
      
        
      This command will listen for audio and create a .wav file when it detects sound.
    3. Write a script that will be triggered when a sound is detected. For example, you can create a script called "myscript.sh" with the following content:
       
          
      #!/bin/bash
      echo "Sound detected! Running my script."
      # Add your desired actions here
      
      
        
    4. Make the script executable by running the following command in the terminal:
       
          
      chmod +x myscript.sh
      
      
        
    5. Use the 'rec' command along with the 'play' command from 'sox' to continuously listen for sound and execute your script when sound is detected:
       
          
      sox -d -t .wav - silence 1 0.1 3% 1 1.0 3% | while read -r; do ./myscript.sh; done
      
        
      This command will continuously listen for sound and execute your script each time sound is detected.

    Remember to customize the script "myscript.sh" with your desired actions.

  • Install BiglyBT from fdroid. That is a torrent downloader for android. It has a search function to find torrents. Or you can search torrents using any number of websites.

    As for quality and size.... At this point in your journey you'll have to sort and filter manually for those.

    Also, you won't find many guides for android and everything does lean heavy on PC. So if you can afford it eventually get yourself a cheap laptop, it'll make things much easier for you.

  • As much as I hate to say it, Instagram is pretty decent for artisan/niche stuff. There you can actually see them making. Assuming they don't use tricky camera angles or other bs.

    But it's sad that the answer for one cancer is another cancer

  • I like to sit around and tie knots. It keeps my hands busy and I feel like it's something that could actually be of use too. First Class Amateur on YouTube is a great way to start.

    Ropes, strings, cords, whatever you want to call it, can all be found just about anywhere and are pretty inexpensive

    There is also the wide world of weaving/braiding bracelets and things. Google Macrame and boondoggle knots
