New Post: Why is audio embedded in text a good idea? [potp.it]
@streakmachine Sure. Ever since PCs displaced the priesthood, even though today's neophyte guardians weren't even born when that happened, they still imbibe the rules.

@matigo I was hoping to do the previous episode on audio fiction, because of those Sarah awards, but they made it so hellish difficult to share the audio that I gave up. I have a rant about that coming to the boil.

@sumudu I'm not at all surprised. I always prefer to write on paper. It helps me remember and is less distracting for whomever is talking.
@matigo It's funny, the variability in average loudness of different podcasts. There is a standard (or is it just advisory?) but both listening casually and when editing for Pick of the Podcasts I notice huge differences. Also in how much compression people use.

Yesterday's internet outage (downage?) was really upsetting because it took me so long to stop thinking it was about to pop right back up. There was urgent stuff I needed to do, and that I got done at a cafe. But I should have abandoned trying much sooner and got on with stuff like logging audio that has no need for connectivity. Maybe next time I'll just accept the situation for what it is and move on.
