  • Idk how much experience you have with this type of thing, but when I listen to my books i use my imagination to picture and hear things the way i want just like when i read a book normally. Ive read well over a 1000 books doing so, and that doesnt count rereads, and having the ability and willingness to use this method has drastically increased the amount i read but also my enjoyment doing so. The app i use also allows me to edit words and phrases throughput the book where i can correct how things are pronounced. Hell there's a series that has this stupid catchphrase that i completely removed from all 20 books cause it was annoying. Im sure im only a single person that likes this method, but if i can find it enjoyable then when real ai gets put to work it'll capture others.

  • Why would they when you can just plug any epub into a program and use google tts. Ive listened to about a book a day for the past few years doing this and i love it. Yeah it took getting used too, but once you find an ai voice you like and figure out which words to auto replace to sound right its honestly better then an audiobook. Well at least to me it is, i could never stand when the reader would change their voice for different characters.

  • It is and is not the same, its like i was comparing it to a fridge of food going months justing sitting and festering as it rots and its itsell in a bath of bacteria. Fucking disgusting, but its worse when its a persons dead smell.

    Ive been thigh high in sewage, its not as bad as that, but very close but in a mental disgust way.

    I think we have a mental trigger to avoid death. Id be instrested in a veterans war view on the subject since my view only comes from a small amount of exposure.

  • If you're worried about how smells affect you, have you ever smelt where a person died? It smells almost exactly like a bunch of very very rotten food. But your mind freaks out about it knowing it comes from a person. I used to work on insurance jobs and have cleaned up after 3 deaths and the smell..... it just fucking sticks in your mind knowing what it is. Once a car was brought into the warehouse after a suicide but i didnt know what for it just smelt like a fridge of food after not having power for a month. But as soon as i learned what it was my brain instantly made it smell worse. Honestly kinda crazy.

  • So my friend played through the game 2 times without knowing you can auto ride wagons and your horse to make those segments not so tedious. I think its clicking the left stick down, but its so helpful for those wagon missions.

  • New guy at work has one. I saw him pull it out and flip to check then closed it and i immediately said what the fuck you got a flip phone, thinking an old one. Nope its a newer one, with a very noticeable line in the middle of the screen. Seems so dumb.
