Because the ACP program, Affordable Connectivity Program, ended in the US, I need help paying for my full internet bill, which is $90 monthly! Many ways to give at https://robertkingett.com/donate/ @mutualaid

Whenever people ask me for free audiobooks, I send them this link. They are amazed there are fiction podcasts. https://audiodrama.directory/tag/narrated/ #AudioBooks #Audiobook @audiobooks #Audible #Podcast #Podcasts #AudioFiction

Any other let’s plays that also publish their work as a podcast so I don’t have to hack a method of turning YouTube channels into podcasts? I know about gorillas play through but I’m looking for others. I turn all YouTube channels into podcasts anyway to avoid the ads and other cruff, but anything on ?

weirdwriter,

@zersiax I don’t so much needed to be in a podcast format, just a more open format like peertube, so I can put the feed into my podcast app of choice

@weirdwriter this might be of use https://github.com/i3arnon/YouCast. Not sure how up-to-date it is

In part, this is why I just don't buy books from Amazon anymore and, instead, stick to non-resident libraries instead. There is something profoundly funny about UFO maniacs getting scammed by fake AI books https://www.404media.co/amazon-sold-fake-copies-of-hotly-anticipated-ufo-book/

@weirdwriter Would you recommend any particular non-resident libraries?

I wouldn’t know. Their homepage mentions Reddit r/uBlockOrigin.

Roopappy,

Don’t end your sentences with a preposition.

A secret on LLM security, which I'm getting quite skilled at very rapidly. Can I call myself an, ahem, prompt engineer now? Anyway. Go to any corporations website. We're testing guardrails first. You can't know what you can get away with until you know what guards are in place. Go to any corporations website. Bring up the, ahem, AI. Ask it to do something like make you a python script that will download all podcasts from an RSS feed. If it does it, then you know it doesn't have a lot of guardrails. Also, fun! I'm gonna upload video of me trying an AI prompt injection game for the first time. I got to level 6 on my own but then I got stumped, but still, can't wait to upload it!

@miki A few months back, a British broadcaster trialed a more descriptive, blind-friendly audio stream for a televised rugby match[1]. Of course, they only had the mono, low-bitrate AD channel to use, and presumably couldn't manage the fade values in realtime. So we ended up with US-SAP-style, crappy stadium audio.

@jscholes @jackf723 @vick21 @weirdwriter Poland does this somewhat regularly. We get audio description for quite a few football (soccer) matches here. It's quite surprising really, considering the fact that we barely get it for anything else. Soccer is the only thing that gets somewhat regular and consistent AD. The quality is quite crappy, I can't tell you the exact stream parameters but I know who to ask.

Link at end, If any @romancelandia fans liked the original Fourth Wing and Iron Flames audiobooks, you can try the full cast version! I personally like this version much better, so have fun! Graphic Audio also lends their stuff to libraries. Check Hoopla because they have better sound quality but they are on Libby too https://www.graphicaudio.net/our-productions/series/a-e/the-empyrean.html @audiobooks
