That’s… pretty weird. Can’t say I’ve ever seen that.

Thank you, I scrolled all the way to the end of the comments and was worried this wouldn’t be here.

Sounds like a great application for AI! Oh, wait…

Doesn’t France have extensive camera coverage of public areas? Though for sure the French would riot were they misused in this fashion.

Assuming what he suggests doesn’t legally (or financially) limit what options are actually available to you.

I’m pretty sure you could make this comic apply to git too.

“It looks like you’re not using an authorized Oral-B toothbrush head, for your safety your toothbrush has self destructed.”

What are the odds that fsd recognizes musks face and prioritizes his survival over yours? Swerve right into that nearby tree!

Reminds me of xitter changing its algorithm to boost musk’s tweets when he took over.

Man, that pendulum swing from “the uncarrier” to full blown horrible large corporation. That merger with Sprint sure has made things better for customers, right?

Concierge hospitals give monocles too.

Challenge accepted.

Ah, I see what you’re saying, I misunderstood and thought you were taking about picking a different book. Indeed, for the worst case scenario a mediocre AI voice could be an improvement!

Really shoulda had the new guy standing to the left in the bottom frames to sell the premise.

I do 529 contributions for my niece and nephew. I pestered my brother until he finally opened accounts for them rather than doing it myself. Primarily because I wanted him to feel ownership of the process and (hopefully) get in on contributing as well.

You seem to be implying that’s ridiculous, but it is indeed exactly like that, though it’s not like I’m expecting every performance to be a masterpiece.

It’s also pretty subjective, for example folks either seem to love or hate R. C. Bray. My mother can’t stand the guy’s style, I think he’s okay.

For now at least I bet this’ll be pretty mediocre. I’m a big audiobook fan and voice actors have a massive impact on the quality of the finished product. A great voice actor can make a mediocre book fun and engaging, a bad one can make a great book unlistenable. The best do great voice differentiation. As an example I’ve really enjoyed Andrea Parsneau’s work in The Wandering Inn series.

As someone who had a two month old in the PICU for a few days with RSV, this is great to hear. I wish it’d come a few years sooner for us. The little guy is fine now but it was terrifying at the time.

I recall a theory as to why they are evil.
