okay i know this makes sense for good scientific reasons but.i have a confession.i hate this for the same reason i lowkey hate the open font developed to be for dyslexia except this is way way worse.the. the voice in my head that reads it out.fucking.bad. it goes bad. this is a hiccupy bad weird cadence for the words and i hate it! it is like my inner narrator just got replaced with the residents of the evil spirit lodge from twin peaks who all have their dialog recorded saying backwards and then reversed so they're talking forwards again! super bad and not good!auditory hell! auditory hell! this technique is text-based auditory hell!!!

i will also say here's a transcription and subtitles thing that really does need to stop happening, and it grinds my gears despite the fact that i am in no way hoh/deaf:hey if you let the computer auto-transcribe or auto-subtitlesfor the love of all things good on god's green earthjustfuckingmake a real human beinglook at the resultswith real human eyeballsand fucking edit it.special shoutout here goes to the slate.com transcripts for their advice column transcripts. they're so proud of how accessible things are because they made the computer transcribe it! and then, i shit you not, the computer immediately gets the name of one of the podcast hosts wrong, usually in the introduction, and will proceed to get it wrong in new and interesting ways for the rest of the transcription. along with things like the computer being very bad at distinguishing voices conclusively and deciding to err on the side of "too many speakers" than "combining speakers". so you get the podcast hosts as speakers numbers one through fucking nineteen.it would take a fucking intern maybe all of thirty minutes to simply edit this, and that's being extremely generous in the time limit. for a lot of it they wouldn't even have to listen to the podcast. you just literally need a human brain and human intelligence going "wait a second, the host of this show is named Jenee, not Jenny, not Genie, not Jeanie..." and fucking caring about it.anyway slate doesn't put comment sections on those podcast episodes probably to keep me from doing exactly fucking this in them because although i do not wish to do free work for the company, their transcript is worse than useless as an accessibility feature. it is the equivalent of saying "of course we have a wheelchair ramp!" and then the wheelchair ramp is rotten wood that will plunge you down into the sewers when it breaks, but the company wants to stand there with their accessibility rewards and be proud of it anyway.

"oh but harp that's just hominids, not like modern history and -"okay now think about how much the courses of war have changed thanks to "advances in throwing things and the devices used to throw things on our behalf". from the english longbowman to the mongol warrior technique of recurve shortbows suitable for using on horseback to the constant competition between good armor developed to protect from current projectiles, so projectiles get better, so the armor gets better etc etc... to how much architecture does the same thing as siege weapons develop... to the massive competition of who can figure out gunpowder first and who can make a gun that's effective."oh but that's not like really modern..." what is a rocket if not an application of gunpowder, but quickly moving on to something more potent? what is a spaceship but a piece of artillery that you're very careful to not explode at the end? what is the space race if not humans looking up at the moon and deciding they could yeet somebody up there?

@lapis god what a way to learn some Stephen King loreand unfortunately it's one that I find deeply hilarious. Probably because I didn't have to endure the Mamboing.i can only assume the divorce would have been a sure thing if he busted out https://youtu.be/TrsvTqcMrKo?si=zONbfyljkmmNqBwI

@futurebird this is not cuneiform at that point, but i know that for ancient romans, wax tablets were kinda the original post-it-note - scrap paper before scrap paper lol - so i wonder if wax you could get writing at a pretty good clip with, and then for a clay tablet (or especially a stone engraving...) you write it out more properly. i seem to remember some evidence that the babylonians did the same...?we gotta get some people learning to write cuneiform so we can make them do Mavis Beacon Teaches Writing In Clay And-Or Wax and gather data for average performance. and as you can probably tell, that rapidly became less and less of a joke as i wrote that sentence
