While I was trying to boot a vanilla linux kernel on the Teclast X98 Air 3G I messed up a bit with the UEFI firmware settings: the battery was not recognized anymore, the tablet was rebooting right after showing the UEFI firmware boot screen, and USB-host was not working either; so no keyboard for accessing the firmware menu to restore the default settings, and no ADB for running flashrom or the Intel FPT to reflash the firmware with.

A vocoder is basically a tool to turn any sound into something which can “speak”, some examples can be seen in this Collin's Lab episode about MIDI, or in this classic from the Kraftwerk (the vocoder effect starts at 1:06):

Whether you are planning to ask for a ransom, or joining the Daft Punk, or taking a time travel to the '70s: a vocoder is always handy.
