RSS Feed Reader Downloader for Club Twit

  • DNS Benchmark v2 Release 5 with Consultant License
    Guest:
    If you own any earlier release of our DNS Benchmark you may immediately download its release #5 replacement. Running an earlier release will detect the new release and help you upgrade.

    Although this release is cosmetic, appearance matters and affects ease of use. The biggest change, as seen in the image above, is that the DNS Benchmark now has a traditional Windows application menu to more fully expose its many features. This release is also "Consultant License Aware" and GRC will now issue a Consultant version when owners have previously purchased four "Personal Use" licenses. If you have previously purchased four DNSB licenses, or if you wish to upgrade your "Personal Use" license to Consultant, GRC's purchase process will direct you through that process.

  • BootAble – FreeDOS boot testing freeware

    To obtain direct, low-level access to a system's mass storage drives, SpinRite runs under a GRC-customized version of FreeDOS which has been modified to add compatibility with all file systems. In order to run SpinRite it must first be possible to boot FreeDOS.

    GRC's “BootAble” freeware allows anyone to easily create BIOS-bootable media in order to workout and confirm the details of getting a machine to boot FreeDOS through a BIOS. Once the means of doing that has been determined, the media created by SpinRite can be booted and run in the same way.

    The participants here, who have taken the time to share their knowledge and experience, their successes and some frustrations with booting their computers into FreeDOS, have created a valuable knowledgebase which will benefit everyone who follows.

    You may click on the image to the right to obtain your own copy of BootAble. Then use the knowledge and experience documented here to boot your computer(s) into FreeDOS. And please do not hesitate to ask questions – nowhere else can better answers be found.

    (You may permanently close this reminder with the 'X' in the upper right.)

Does anyone know a drop dead simple RSS feed reader that I can use for club twit? I want to be able to download security now, Stacy's book club, the linux and space shows and maybe others like windows weekly and just twit. I wrote a python script using gpt, but I am not sure I want to do that. Cross plat form might be nice as I use both windows and linux. Does not have to be. Free is also nice.

I will leave it running on a computer that I don't use and put the downloads in a share.
 
Gpodder works for me. Simple to use, and available in the repo of your distro most likely. I wrote a tiny script that uses Cron to run in the small hours to update it, so that i could do so without needing to have it run while i was using the computer, and suddenly having it start up and grab bandwidth. Also , as i was using a capped service, it used the night data as well, because pretty much all ISP's find that the time from local midnight to 6AM is a very low bandwidth time, so bulk data was cheap, and very fast compared to peak time.
 
I know Thunderbird can pull RSS feeds. I've never tried, so don't know what that looks like. It would hit the cross platform nice requirement.

I used to use Gpodder way past and revisited it recently, but didn't meet my workflow.

Old phones can also fill in here, and play the audio/video.

Currently using AntennaPod (open source) on Android.
