Getting Landsat-8 LST data - gis

I am trying to download Landsat-8 LST data for my study region from the period August 2018 to January 2020. I have tried Earth Explorer and LandsatLook, but am having a lot of hassle download the files - on EE it only seems to give me the option to download them one at a time (there are a lot of files) which my computer and wifi seem totally unamenable to. On LandsatLook, I'm not entirely confident in whether I am downloading the correct scenes (those in the pink squares), as I get many less files showing up than on EE. Does anyone have advice on another tool or a way to automate the files? I cannot use Bulk Download (https://earthexplorer.usgs.gov/bulk) as I don't have Java 10.
Thank you so much!

Running a deep learning TTS in 2019 using (DeepVoice | WaveNet | etc)

I'm attempting to convert a series of sentences in a txt file to WAV files in as clear a voice as possible.
According to a 2019 survey there are many recent advancements using deep learning techniques.
Which is great news, because the built-in or commonly used text-to-speech engines sound very robotic. (OSX's "say" command, espeak, etc).
The problem is, the github pages or collab notebook links are focused on how to train a new model, or set up a docker instance, and don't seem to include a minimum
git clone ...
./speak "How are you doing?" -o hayd.wav
Do you know how to install and run any of the 2019 engines from that article to speak a sentence?
I'll update if/when I find one that works.
I don't know about any of the others in the list, but for WaveNet you can use Google's API. Your code sends the text to Google, and they return the audio. There are client libraries available for C#, Go, Java, Node.js, PHP, Python, and Ruby. If you want to do it from another language you could use the REST API. For WaveNet, the first 1 million characters per month are free. After that it is $16 per 1 million characters. See their pricing page.
If your project is a relatively small one-off and you are not bothered about doing it programatically (it wasn't clear from the question), then you could just use their online demo page and use a browser add-on (e.g. Video DownloadHelper or one of many others) to download the results as audio files. Alternatively you could use the API on the command line.
The quality of WaveNet is in my opinion, excellent, and is a vast improvement over the previous generations of text-to-speech algorithms. You can almost believe the voices are real at times.

Importing 32-bit reg. file into Win 7 64-bit

I am trying to import two 32-bit registry files into a Win 7 64-bit registry. While it says it was
successful, the changes don't show up. Not in the registry nor in the software I'm using. My goal is to add all my
Kontakt Sample Libraries into Kontakt's GUI all in one shot. It would save me months of work, instead of adding them
one at a time. This works perfectly in XP Pro SP3, on every computer I've built. But for the life of me I can't
figure out how to do it in Win 7 64-bit. I'll upload some pictures to illustrate the point, and hopefully one of
you Guru's will be able to guide me in the right direction? First of all here's a picture of Win 7 64-bit's
Registry. It shows the few libraries I've added by hand. A slow and tedious process.
enter link description here
Next is a picture of XP's Registry (how I would like my Win 7 Registry to look) To get these libraries all
added at once in XP all I did was import these two reg. files. Current User Native Instruments and Local Machine
Native Instruments. Then all my libraries were populated instantly. The actual libraries and their waves are on my
E:\ Drive. This is merely a way of pointing to them, so Kontakt can see them. I'll upload those reg. files so
someone can test adding them to their Registry.
enter link description here
Sorry there doesn't seem to be any way to add files to this post. So next is a picture of how Kontakt looks in XP Pro, (the way it should in Win 7.)
(Sorry, a third link or a third picture not permitted without 10 Rep points!!) OMG!!
Hopefully this will make sense to someone? Does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong? It sure would save me a ton of time, if you could direct me on how to do this correctly. Thanks in advance for your time.
Rob,
P.S. It won't allow me to post pictures or more than 2 links without 10 Rep points. Man, oh man!!

Which server os to use for small office with very limited requirements

We are currently moving to a new office. We currently use a combination of OneDrive and GoogleDrive to store all of our photography and shared folders however the new premises are not fibre ready so I do not want to use all the bandwidth on uploading / downloading photos. Therefore we require a really basic server.
I need the server to hold all images and shared files, then after 5pm open up OneDrive and GoogleDrive to begin the synch (whilst everyone is out of the office) then close those programs down before 7am the next morning.
Could anyone recommend a Server OS that would allow me to do this quite easily, it's the only requirement we have for the server.
I've heard that freeNas or Ubuntu may be a good way to go but have no experience with any.
I know this question isn't very specific to one language etc. however I'm not sure where else to ask it, so if anyone has any information on better places to post the question then I'd be really greatfull for that to.
Thank you
Glynn
I think most server OS'es should be able to fulfil your needs. If you want convenience, then I would suggest Ubuntu server. It's very easy to setup, compatible with most hardware and lots of documentation available on the interwebs. For your file sharing needs: I would suggest checking out Bittorrent Sync. It's really nice!

Need Suggestion about google map filtering and saving data to DB

Im starting to create a project about google maps..I have created a map with my own api key..But adding the markers was a bit dizzy to me..So, I went to go and switch for a 3rd party google map that it have created already the maps.
Is there any 3rd party google map I can used and Is there a way, on how I can connect it to the Database.Using PHP and MySql??
Anyone any suggestion on how??
Thank you
First you need to set up your computer with PHPmyAdmin. There are a couple of sources that you can download it for free. You will turn your computer into a server.
Then you need to spend some time with the google tutorial here. that's the first step. Cutting corners will not help down the road....
You will see people prefer json to xml. But the google tutorials bring xml if I am not mistaken.
The tutorials almost never work out of the box.... but as you struggle, you will learn.
There are the tutorials from Mike Williams here.
The filter part is more complex stuff, that can be done in the back end with php/mysql or front end at the browser. Simple filters are part of many tutorials in the net (like radius). I am still trying to figure out how to do complex filters.
It seems that it depends on the load, speed, etc. Very brief summary of my last 6 months and first 6 months with programming. Working 80 hours a week on this...

How to partially read a CSV file with Super CSV

I have a csv file with 24 columns. Out of these I only want to read 3 columns. I see that super CSV is a very powerful library, but I can't figure out how to partially read a CSV. The link that have on partial reading is broken.
Please do help me out with a working example.
Update: SourceForge is back online! The Super CSV site should work now :)
That's the correct link, but SourceForge project websites are down right now (according to the SourceForge blog):
Starting at 12:59 UTC today, we experienced a site outage, causing
general connectivity issues sitewide. At 15:12 UTC, site connectivity
was restored and most services, including downloads, are now back
online. Some services are however are offline while we continue to
diagnose and determine the root cause for this issue. The services
still offline are:
Project web (ie., projectname.sourceforge.net pages) and associated
shell and database services. This also includes access through sftp,
scp, and rsync via ssh.
So you have a few options:
view the source code of the reading example on SourceForge (this part of SF is still working). There's a link to download the file at the top left.
check out the project source from subversion (you can view/run the reading example listed above to see how it works, or you can even run mvn site:site to generate the project website locally
view the cached page from Google
I hope you enjoy using Super CSV - if you have any other questions feel free to post them here on SO, or on the project help forum on SourceForge.
