Oh ok. No but I do follow you as I am sure there are plenty of calls being intercepted by our govt agencies. I guess I am trying to wrap my head around who would use AI voice technology for that purpose? Enemies within the country of the foreign leaders that hack into their specific phone lines?

What is considered a “known compromised line”?

There was a great take on one of these called “Everybody Hates Raymond”

It was the show Everybody Loves Ramon but the laugh track was completely replaced with boos and was frickin hilarious. I think it got removed from YouTube though cuz I haven’t been able to find it for years.

I’m gonna say this out loud next time I’m taking a shower.

Kinda thought you were talking about Hulk Hogan which would also be terrifying in its own right.

Haven’t seen it but that’s a BOLD statement. I would like someone else’s opinion who has seen both.

Never even played Zork once yet I will always think of this track when it comes up.

He’s still using XP?? I’m guessing his computer isn’t online then?

Dial tone still exists. Pretty much every business phone that’s most likely a VoIP line still generates dial tone to the user’s headset.

Ha! Love that and totally gonna steal it even though I’m sure I’ll also forget it as well lol

Been here an almost year and literally just learned that from the above post.

Thanks for the recap. My upvote for this post is now a downvote.

I would imagine there would eventually be legislation to not let people cosplay under the age of consent with this new tech.

Now I just wanna watch Primer again.

Well I guess I am just wondering how more rentals from a video store would benefit the developers financially? I mean I’m sure I could research but surely game studios didn’t get any kind of percentage from the rental places based on how many times a title was rented right?

That’s mostly true, except for games made specifically harder so that you’d have to rent them multiple times

Wait this was a thing game designers actually to into account? I’ve never heard this

Fair enough. I would certainly take longer showers if it was just as sanitary… but I wonder if that’s a good or bad thing too. It is interesting interacting with you across fediverse platforms though! I’ve been here for 9 months and that still trips me out.

Fair point. I haven’t had one of those in so long I’ve forgotten.

U wot m8? You want to heat and recycle the water that you already used to clean your filthy body? I think a treatment system should be in play somewhere in this scenario lol
