I started listening to a podcast that had very obviously used AI editing to remove umms and "filler words", and it was truly awful. Had to switch it off.
So you know I like The X-Files a lot. Imagine me nerves when I got to interview the person whose mind it came from. I chat with Chris Carter in the next episode of my podcast, which you can find here linktr.ee/heydannyitsm...
It feels like being self-employed is now the only functional way my addled neurodiverse brain can thrive... yet the government is doing everything possible to make it more hostile to how my addled neurodiverse brain functions.

Sorry to put a downer on your Sunday, but in case you'd not seen, the Government wants us to pay our tax *monthly* like we're employees or something With the World Cup and all the politics, I'd missed the consultation they put out last month, which is here: 1/
I want people to understand the full impact of the devastation that First Nations in Canada are facing. It's NOT just that people and wildlife are losing their homes...it's the history that is being lost for generations to come.

I interviewed the producer and designer of the 1998 X-Files FMV point-and-click adventure game. The game was produced over 4 years, had a 750 page script, a $6 million budget, and featured lots of the main cast. Really interesting to learn how it was made. www.heydannyitsmulder.com/episodes/epi...

They don't It does PIP is not an out of work benefit. FFS, these people are about to ruin people's lives with absolutely no idea what they are talking about while they do it. Not to mention the complete lack of understanding about how needs change, which makes arguments like "mild ADHD" redundant
Every time this goes around I’m stunned that there are still people who’ve never seen it, this performance is to drag what the Mona Lisa is to paintings, but maybe you’ve never seen the Mona Lisa, so today is the day you shall behold it

Alfred Nobel established the Nobel Prize after wake up call: newspapers mistakenly published his obituary when his brother died & what he read as his legacy horrified him speaking ill (factually) of the dead is literally the most effective way to curb living racist & Nazi public figures/politicians
![There is a well-known story about the origin of the Nobel Prize, although historians have been unable to verify it, and some dismiss the story as a myth.[26] In 1888, the death of his brother Ludvig supposedly caused several newspapers to publish obituaries of Alfred in error. One French newspaper[which?] condemned him for his invention of military explosives—in many versions of the story, dynamite is quoted, although this was mainly used for civilian applications—and this is said to have brought about his decision to leave a better legacy after his death.[6] The obituary supposedly stated, Le marchand de la mort est mort ("The merchant of death is dead"),[6] and according to the myth went on to say, "Dr. Alfred Nobel, who became rich by finding ways to kill more people faster than ever before, died yesterday."[27] Nobel read the obituary and was appalled at the idea that he would be remembered in this way. His decision to posthumously donate the majority of his wealth to found the Nobel Prize has been credited to him wanting to leave behind a better legacy.[28][6] However, it has been questioned whether or not the obituary in question actually existed.[28] An actual obituary (pictured) stated "A man who can only with the utmost difficulty be considered a benefactor of mankind has died yesterday at Cannes. It is Mr. Nobel, inventor of dynamite. Mr. Nobel was Swedish." It was published on the first page of the Figaro on the 15th of April 1888 and retracted the next day.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:26hkfmtr7jrchexamh7hk6rz/bafkreiamxbpof2omcdylzhjqx5jvddya4qtd2rranqhfr3hqz7m5v7croe)

Podcasters, I recently paid for Riverside because I needed local audio and video (which it didn’t fully get), but I’m already done with their AI-pushing. I don’t use it to edit but it still suggested I cut a piece of “behind the scenes” conversation… in a behind the scenes podcast! Any alternatives?
The retraction process is not efficient enough to handle this mess
