Speech to Text

Greetings.

We can use this application to capture our speech and convert it into text.

Independent Application

Change Roll

FIX — 10 August 2026:

Update security rules on Cloudflare. Sorry for the unexpected 403 and the non-functional application. Fixed. 🛠️
FIX — 5 August 2025:

Typo onchage. 🤦

Changelog? 🤔

I provide some of most common language options for the recognition.

This works on Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and some Android browsers.

With this, we can right away get the text of a conversation, supposedly. Convenient. We can use our cellphone. I suppose there will be missed recognition. Especially when the speech is wicked or there's too much background noise.

This application implements webkitSpeechRecognition (non-standard API).

At the moment, or any other moment, there is no English (Gibberish). The code en-🤪 is hard to train and wasteful. — Blibber blabber foofoo twaddle twaddle snarf — is not common in anywhere.

webkitSpeechRecognition is indeed powered by Google's cloud speech recognition server, even though it's a browser API. Hence it's sent to Google's servers and subject to Chrome's privacy policy.

Better Service

We can try:

Google Cloud Speech-to-Text
OpenAI Whisper
AssemblyAI

Google's and AssemblyAI provide the documentations for real-time transcription. Usually, through WebSocket (streaming) technique — Google also provides gRPC method. "Real time" like the demonstration above. Whisper is... well, sort of, with delay. All of them provide a wide range of languages and can transcribe the utterance exceptionally.

Chess: King's Pawn Game: Leonardis Variation — Not So Passive After All

I Played the Aggressor The white pieces. 🙂‍↕️ This is the "Leonardis Variation" opening position: This opening is rather passive for White. But! Let's have a sly look. 👀 👀 👀 You can use your left and right arrows on your keyboard or use the mouse scroll to see the moves back and forth on the chessboard. But first, click the board. Anyway, I have a post about the Leonardis Variation bit within my other post about Bird Opening . Calm Opening I usually do an aggressive opening. Or simply a melon of an opening. Back then — in that dawn of Windows 7 era — when playing White, I mostly did "the Whale" against the Chess Titans . Chess Titans, bundled with Windows 7 and Vista. Remember that chess game? Smashing graphics. Maximum level, mate! Level 10? The Whale is: 1. e4 e5 2. c4 ⬇️ The Whale opening is rather an offbeat one. Leonardis Variation, on the other hand, passive and solid. Very calm. It gives me a breathing space to obs...

How Thousands Rogue Bots Accidentally Forced Me to Rewrite My Front-End Search Engine

Hi, everybody. 👋 This stems from my curiosity over my statistics on Cloudflare. As I've observed from the dashboard — specifically on the Analytics ➡️ HTTP Traffic — the listed countries wildly varied each day. And also, very odd number of requests. Thus, I pulled the data from Cloudflare's GraphQL API — available for Free Tier, capped at 10k per 24h — to analyse it with a user interface (UI). I've been observing outside Cloudflare dashboard since March 2026. Built the UI from scratch. But in these few days, there's a more peculiar pattern. Well, not "more". "Peculiar" is indeed already with its own uniqueness — so perhaps, "different peculiarity". Well. Turned out, those were mostly rogue bots. I'd noticed the bombardments were more active since about 1-2 weeks ago. On my domain and subdomains. Those php , .env , credentials , and so forth scanning eggplants. You know, akin to those that just plonked their hindqua...

Fix Black Screen on Lenovo Legion on Startup

I own a Lenovo Legion — 15ACH6 laptop. It's past warranty period. I also have posted about the term Legion . This is most likely a defect from Lenovo in the overall interconnected Ryzen (AMD) processor ⇄ Radeon GPU (onboard) ⇄ NVIDIA GPU ⇄ power management. My Lenovo Flex 5 — also post-warranty — with Intel processor, this blank never happened. Well, somewhere within the dual GPUs management perhaps was the culprit, possibly. Flex 5 has one GPU. I mean, usually manufacturers don't deliberately put subroutines to make the customers defecate masonry, right? Right? 🤔 Right. Indeed, it is a bug. Aside from the fact that this blank screen appeared conveniently when the warranty period was ended. This is the laptop being awkwardly "dead". ⬇️ It was not off . The laptop was ON . The fans were running, the LED indicator on the power button was ON, it was ON. But the screen was blank, nothing was shown. I use the "flip to boot...

JavaScript: Number Formatting

Hello. Let's do a bit of JavaScript. "Number Formatting" I mean in the title is as such: 100 is formatted to 100 1000 is formatted to 1,000 10000 is formatted to 10,000 123456 is formatted to 123,456 9876543210 is formatted to 9,876,543,210 1123.58 is formatted to 1,123.58 By adding a comma separator every three digits. We can achieve that through: A loop. Using for — backwards loop. BUT! Before that, we need to separate — the negative sign — if exists, the digits part — this part is the subject of the formatting, and the decimals part. Then lump everything together as the final result. Power of regular expression. 💪👺 💪 Let us begin. Loop Method As I've mentioned above, this has separation stages, then the loop. You can read the comments in the code to understand the flow. function formatNumberWithLo...

I Wanted to Clean My Keyboard — I Nearly Installed Software Instead

Good morning. 👋 The Keyboard Cleaning So here's what happened. My laptop keyboard was filthy, proper crumbs and fluff everywhere, touchpad too. I grabbed a cloth and just started wiping it down. Laptop still on, screen still awake. Obviously daft because every wipe was pressing keys, opening random windows, and moving the cursor about. Absolute chaos. So I thought — Right. 🤔 I'll just disable the input while I clean it. Off I went to search "how to disable keyboard on Windows 11". And no, the cursor and key press chaos didn't accidentally conjure a software installer. What — The Conjuring: Device Manager Edition? It never asked permission, it installed itself. Rated ⭐⭐⭐⭐ from plenty. Interesting. So instead of Ed and Lorraine Warren, we'd have... other names. Like Geoff and Tina Amazon Web Service. Let's derail a bit — Madam, I have a software-spectre problem at my house. ...

Infarct and Infract

They almost look alike, but both have different meanings and origins. Infarct Inf ar ct ➡️ inf— ar —ct. This is a noun in English, infarct . It is usually used in medical context. But sometimes, it is used as a verb informally in clinical papers, e.g. "the tissue infarcted". This term entered English in around 19th century. Infarct means a small localised area of dead tissue resulting from failure of blood supply. It is taken from Modern Latin infarctus = in + farctus. From Latin infarcīre ➡️ leads to infarctus. In = into. Farcīre = to stuff or to cram. Infarcīre = to stuff into or with. Farctus is past participle of farcīre. It means stuffed , crammed , or filled . Therefore, infarctus means stuffed into , crammed into , or filled with . Infarction This is the predecessor of infarct, also a noun . Infarction means obstruction of the blood supply to an organ...

Blogger Template Error Message: "XML document structures must start and end within the same entity."

Error Message The error message on Blogger ( HTML editor) looks like this: Why? Because I accidentally deleted the closing CDATA section in a script . It was supposed to be like so: <script> // <![CDATA[ /* JavaScript lines here */ // ]]> </script> And I — with my sleight of mouse-hand, selected one line too many — deleted the closing tag: <script> // <![CDATA[ /* JavaScript lines here */ </script> Then I saved the template. XML was — (XML.) Oi! Aye? What? (XML.) Must start and end within the same entity! Which one? (XML.) Read. My script is fine, ya muppet! Save it. S. A. V. E. (XML.) READ. I did! Why is your message vague? (XML.) R. E. A... Fine. Solution I was baffled by that because my script had everything escaped, the forbidden entities. I bloody checked the JavaScript code and nothing was suspicious. And then... I reread the error message more than thrice. — Hm, the...

Gemini Pronunciation

Background Gemini is quite useful lately. The Google's AI is attached to my Google account, so I thought — Why not employ it? — And I did. Gemini is rather tremendous. Mostly. Anyway, moving on. The Utterance I just found out the creators of Gemini pronounce it "JEM-IN-EYE". Indeed. JEM-IN-EYE You know, "bikini". If we followed that rule — the "eye" suffix — then it'd become "BIKIN-EYE". Possibly even — BYE-KYEN-EYE Or "zucchini". Never being said "ZOO-KEEN-EYE". — Pardon me, good sir. Could you add some more zoo-keen-eye into my pasta? That would be splendid. Thank you. English dictionaries, all of them, put either — /ˈdʒɛmɪnaɪ/ , /ˈdʒem.ɪ.naɪ/ , or /ˈdʒem.ə.naɪ/ — for Gemini pronunciation. Which I found utterly amusing. AMUSING. Hence, this post. Well, all things considered, the "G" in Gemini — if we go back to Classical Latin root — is...
