Voice Actor for Hire @voiceofthecity - Tumblr Blog

After a couple months of popping in and out, now seems like the perfect time to reinstate this blog as my home base for casual internet scrolling and interaction with others. The bird website might just be good for keeping business contacts and be less casual (IF things don't burn away over there too fast).

Consider this post a sort of small reintroduction to my personal space. I'll write up a transcript of the audio later, but for now, this is a greeting post for newcomers and old friends alike!

(WELCOME BACK)

You can find me on other sites listed here on my Linktree!

My entry for the "Design A Robot Master" contest: Siphon Woman!

We're at war, and now people are fighting back like never before

A true general strike in the U.S. is unprecedented in most of our lifetimes. People above the age of 80 may have faint memories of the last round of city-wide general strikes, which took place in 1946. Before that point it was already a rare, historic feat for unions and communities to pull off, and after that point they’ve been non-existent in this country. So today is monumental, not because a one-day general strike will achieve all of its demands and successfully drive ICE out of Minnesota, but because it sets a new tone, a new standard for the degree of organization and impact that the left is aiming for. In a moment that calls for drastic action, the people of Minnesota are living up to the call, and orienting the rest of us toward more ambitious and necessary action.

One sign of the historic and urgent nature of this moment is that the traditionally more cautious and conservative unions, like the Minneapolis AFL-CIO, have joined today’s general strike call. They join numerous other unions in flexing their muscles to push back against the fascist attack on working people across Minnesota, and across the country. Overall, Minnesota union density is about 16%, while the national number is just below 10%. That distinction might not seem huge, and we certainly want those numbers to increase everywhere, but the six percent difference means tens of thousands more unionized workers, tens of thousands more people who are organized and ready to respond to their union’s call at a pivotal moment like the one we’re in right now.

>First, we’ve discovered that about a quarter of all the internet connection in or out of the house were ad related. In a few hours, that’s about 10,000 out of 40,000 processed.

>We also discovered that every link on Twitter was blocked. This was solved by whitelisting the https://t.co domain.

>Once out browsing the Web, everything is loading pretty much instantly. It turns out most of that Page Loading malarkey we’ve been accustomed to is related to sites running auctions to sell Ad space to show you before the page loads. All gone now.

>We then found that the Samsung TV (which I really like) is very fond of yapping all about itself to Samsung HQ. All stopped now. No sign of any breakages in its function, so I’m happy enough with that.

>The primary source of distress came from the habitual Lemmings player in the house, who found they could no longer watch ads to build up their in-app gold. A workaround is being considered for this.

>The next ambition is to advance the Ad blocking so that it seamlessly removed YouTube Ads. This is the subject of ongoing research, and tinkering continues. All in all, a very successful experiment.

>Certainly this exceeds my equivalent childhood project of disassembling and assembling our rotary dial telephone. A project whose only utility was finding out how to make the phone ring when nobody was calling.

>Update: All4 on the telly appears not to have any ads any more. Goodbye Arnold Clarke!

>Lemmings problem now solved.

>Can confirm, after small tests, that RTÉ Player ads are now gone and the player on the phone is now just delivering swift, ad free streams at first click.

>Some queries along the lines of “Are you not stealing the internet?” Firstly, this is my network, so I may set it up as I please (or, you know, my son can do it and I can give him a stupid thumbs up in response). But there is a wider question, based on the ads=internet model.

>I’m afraid I passed the You Wouldn’t Download A Car point back when I first installed ad-blocking plug-ins on a browser. But consider my chatty TV. Individual consumer choice is not the method of addressing pervasive commercial surveillance.

>Should I feel morally obliged not to mute the TV when the ads come on? No, this is a standing tension- a clash of interests. But I think my interest in my family not being under intrusive or covert surveillance at home is superior to the ad company’s wish to profile them.

>Aside: 24 hours of Pi Hole stats suggests that Samsung TVs are very chatty. 14,170 chats a day.

>YouTube blocking seems difficult, as the ads usually come from the same domain as the videos. Haven’t tried it, but all of the content can also be delivered from a no-cookies version of the YouTube domain, which doesn’t have the ads. I have asked my son to poke at that idea.

Yeppers. :)

reblogging for study later AND to spread the info.

Seriously, get and run PiHole if you can. It changes your internet experience so much for the better. I get shocked when I visit a website when I'm someone else's network, by just how many ads the internet is flooded with now. Take back control.

Btw I made this guide if you wanna set up pi-hole yourself but don't have the technical knowhow! :3

I keep getting emails about people using the dozens of Ursula gifs I uploaded to tenor

On an unrelated topic, I cleaned this up :)

Not to downplay Homura and Madoka's relationship at all, but Homura falling deeply in love with the first girl who gave her the time of day is like. Painfully accurate queer teen representation. Throw in Homura's implied Catholicism and baby, you got a stew going.

I wanted this but the original poster is transphobic

anarchopuppy

This is called the "analog loophole" and there's nothing anyone can do to stop it. They can encrypt and copy-protect all they want, but eventually the file has to be sent to a speaker and/or screen, and it has to get there in a human-readable form because that's the whole dang point

The simplest way to exploit the analog loophole is just pointing a camera at a screen or a microphone at a speaker, but direct recording is also always possible and always will be. Anything that can be displayed can be saved and displayed again

autumngracy

Back in the day, people also used to share software over the radio with this technology. Because computer programs and files are really just sets of binary code, and that code can be turned into audio tones.

The resulting audio file can be played over the radio (sounding a bit like the old dial up noise, as it's just two quickly oscillating notes) and recorded to a cassette tape, which you can then give to your computer to "decode" back into 0's and 1's, which gives you the program file. You can then run it as if you'd installed it from a disk.

NPR did a very cool podcast about this.

Lads. We used to put phones on computer peripherals.

This is hella cool information, but something nice about audacity is that you can just lie to it from the get go and tell it that the audio stream from your computer is a normal microphone.

Tape recorders are rad, yes, but you can get really high quality recordings by skipping the middle man in this case. Any audio your computer can play, you can directly record to digital without wasting or wearing out audio cassettes.

missmisnomer

This post legitimately knocked me out of a doomscroll. Had to put down my phone and everything and stare at a wall.

I really do regret my inaction the most. Every time. All of my future problems are always caused by things I failed to do in the present. And every time, I get so mad at past Me for not even trying because I’m so afraid to fail.

Like. Damn. Didn’t expect pixel art of some planets to hit me so hard.
