Huh, sure are a lot of Mpls leftists on there including more than a few who are using their real names and posting public photos of their faces. Seems like that’s not a great idea at this point

Long story short, an actual Nazi doxxing ring. Enough people reported them that they went away for like 12 hours and then Elon personally brought them back. The site is dead. If you’re still on there, go lock your account right now

Nope. Nope. Nope.
Not cool.
Not here.
Not ever.

We will keep working with real translators and narrators (and artists and proofreaders and authors and...) without any of this "AI" bullshit.

The 2025 Frankfurt Book Fair heard that developments in AI audiobooks mean publishers will no longer have to decide whether to translate a book, but instead just choose which market to translate into 👇 #FBM25

AI audio means publishers ‘don’t have to choose whether to translate, only which market’, FBF hears

Me every time someone is like "Studio Ghibli Hayao Miyazaki so cutesie ootsy cozy wozy cottagecore"

First image: the little kid from Twilight Zone: The Movie, Joe Dante segment "It's a Good Life" saying "I'm wishing you into Cartoon Land"
Second image: the cursed boar god Nago from Studio Ghibli film Princess Mononoke, screaming in pain and fury as worms writhe from his flesh before he resumes trying to eviscerate every human he sees. This is one of the victim characters of the movie.

Doing my Halloween re-listen to The Magnus Archives. The fanart that depicts Jon as long-haired and bohemian is so funny to me, I cannot picture the most uptight man in audio drama going for that look. If he has long hair it’s in a bun so tight it gives him headaches.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman announced in a post on X Tuesday that ChatGPT is officially getting into the fuckable chatbots game, with “erotica for verified adults” rolling out in December.
