CW: Talon speech to text, mini-review
I'm using Talon for speech to text on Linux now.
It can do a ton of other voice-control stuff too, potentially in conjunction with an eye tracker or pedals, so you don't necessarily need to use your hands whatsoever. In using it purely for dictation, I'm only really scratching the surface of its capabilities.
You have to be at least a little bit techie to get it up and running, and you pretty much have to be on the Slack if you need any help. I wouldn't be surprised if the documentation improved in future - it's early days yet and the developer is clearly working hard on the software itself. Meanwhile he does answer questions impressively fast on the Slack, as do some power users.
(There _is_ a fair amount of documentation already, inc for abundant customisation options - but it's not at all beginner-level. My heart sinks at the amount of background reading I'd need to do to understand it! So I've done very little customising so far.)
The speech model is imported, and unlike Dragon, it doesn't try to train itself from you correcting your text: it only changes interpretation via being explicitly told stuff, to the effect of e.g. "this name exists" or "what you've been guessing as bleep should be blorp". After about a month of adding new correction-instructions to it, and me getting used to it, I was finding it reasonably comparable to Dragon in terms of dictation accuracy.
I actually kind of prefer Talon to Dragon now, because my Dragon would crash a lot, which outweighed some of its bells and whistles, and Talon's been really stable. And I like the clarity of the correction-instructions (even if they don't _always_ catch what I meant) versus the trying to "train" Dragon on things it might or might not learn to get.
Talon's not compatible with Wayland, and, I gather, won't ever be, because Wayland intrinsically doesn't support the way it works. So you need a Linux distro which can do the older one, ISTR it's called X or X-something. As I understand it, this factor could be a question-mark over Talon's long-term future on Linux, depending on how long the older one remains supported (or substitutable). Can't forecast that aspect because I don't fully understand the relevant Linux landscape.
I'm still on the free version of Talon, and there's a paid beta with more things and integrations, including being able to teach it a variety of pops and clicks and suchlike!

The Xiangji Studio is an old apartment giving onto the southern verandah. The living space is only ten feet square, just enough for one person. The structure is a hundred years old, so the dust filtered in, the rain poured through. When one wanted to shift the position of the table, one could find no other place to put it. Then too the studio faces north, which means it got no sun: by afternoon it was already dark. I had some tepaits made, which stopped the roof leaking. I had four windows cut in the front, and a wall built to encircle the courtyard, so as to catch the southern sun. Thanks to the light reflected by the wall, the interior was bright for the first time. I also had orchid, cassia, bamboos and trees planted here and there in the courtyard, which enhanced the aspect of the existing verandah. With borrowed books filling my shelves, I would lie back and intone and chant, or sit upright and meditate. Though the pipes of Nature played round about, it was quiet and still in the courtyard. Sometimes small birds came to feed there, and did not fly away when humans approached. On the night of the full moon, when the bright moonlight reached halfway down the walls and the cassias shed a dappled shade which moved when the wind stirred, one knew then what bliss was. — Excerpted from Gui Youguang, The Xiangji Studio (Ming Dynasty), translated by David Pollard.

Xaraasi Xanne (Les Voix croisées)
Documentaire de Raphaël Grisey et Bouba Touré Cinéma le Jean-Gabin, Eymoutiers
Dimanche 29 juin 2025 – 17h30À partir d'archives rares, l’aventure exemplaire de Somankidi Coura – coopérative agricole fondée au Mali, en 1977, par des travailleurs immigrés d’Afrique de l’Ouest vivant en France dans des foyers – met en lumière les violences de l’agriculture coloniale et les enjeux écologiques sur le continent Africain aujourd'hui.
« Une histoire de retour donc, pour relancer l’agriculture sur place, allant à l’encontre de l’héritage terrifiant des politiques agricoles coloniales. Mêlant les images de Bouba Touré à d’autres archives indispensables, le film retrace le chemin du monde fondé sur l’impérialisme qui tient. Monté sur des allers et sur des retours, les voix et les trajets se croisent, se répondent et se répètent. Les bonds dans le temps laissent les systèmes inchangés. Grand film de mémoire, face au temps, contre le temps. Ce temps qui “compte beaucoup” comme le dit Bouba Touré. “Je veux vivre dans le temps ; comme je ne veux pas mourir, je marche avec le temps” » (Clémence Arrivé, Cinéma du réel).
Projection organisée à l’occasion de la fête des 10 ans du MAS (Montagne Accueil Solidarité).

Li Xiangting-"Gazing At The Moon"
Incredibly beautiful duet of Guqin and Dizi. Gives me a lot of inspiration about how to layer a Guqin and a Flute together, but the song itself is beautiful and lovely to just listen to
