This is Hacker Public Radio Episode 4,436 for Monday 4 August 2025.
|
|
Today's show is entitled HBR Community News for July 2025.
|
|
It is part of a series HBR Community News.
|
|
It is hosted by HBR volunteers and is about 36 minutes long.
|
|
It carries an explicit flag.
|
|
The summary is…
|
|
HBR volunteers talk about shows released and comments posted in July 2025.
|
|
Hi everybody, my name is Ken Fallon and you're listening to another episode of Hacker Public Radio.
|
|
Joining me tonight ish, as other things on this hand is Scottie.
|
|
Scottie can say hello and then if you don't appear again, we'll know what happened.
|
|
Hello.
|
|
And can you welcome the new host for this month just before you go?
|
|
And it's a trick question because there are no new hosts this month.
|
|
How is that possible, Scottie?
|
|
How?
|
|
Why do they do this to me?
|
|
Things like holidays, vacation time, why?
|
|
Is HBR not important?
|
|
Forget to sit on the tea and biscuits.
|
|
That's it.
|
|
That's it.
|
|
This folks is HBR.
|
|
We are a community podcast focusing on tech.
|
|
We're a tech community podcast that releases shows every weekday, Monday through Friday
|
|
and we've been doing it for nine on 20 years coming up this September.
|
|
We will be 20 years old only one more year to waste and then we can walk into a bar.
|
|
And this is the community news show where we talk about all the happenings
|
|
that's been going on in and around the community.
|
|
What we won't be talking about is there's been a discussion on the mailing list
|
|
one of the discussions we're releasing as a separate show
|
|
because it would just make this episode far too long.
|
|
So what we do is we gather once a month.
|
|
This is open to anybody.
|
|
Anybody can join the show and it's they recorded on the Friday
|
|
before the first Monday of the month, which is a lot more complicated than it probably needs to be.
|
|
And the first thing that we do is we go through all the shows for the previous month
|
|
and the first one was episode 41412 by Antoine.
|
|
And this was I think the first three minutes trailer followed by the full show.
|
|
So originally he has done a show about it where he released the trailer I think.
|
|
Then this is the full show itself and then I saw he posted something into the reserve queue
|
|
which I haven't gone through yet as well related to this.
|
|
And he's also reported a show about his process of recording this.
|
|
So there's been three comments to this episode.
|
|
And the first one was from Kevin O'Brien.
|
|
He says, love the show.
|
|
I'm a student of World War II history and I'm familiar with many of the events
|
|
this story is based on.
|
|
I really liked it to which Antoine replied, glad with interest.
|
|
I'm happy you liked it and I'm curiously different to see how someone that studies history
|
|
nowadays unless when it is the main area for someone.
|
|
Thank you and have a nice day.
|
|
Kevin replies saying, studying history.
|
|
I didn't do history professionally and in any case I'm retired.
|
|
But it was my first degree and still a major interest.
|
|
I read books in history, listen to history podcasts,
|
|
including one on World War II by Ray Harris.
|
|
So the following day we had an episode from Gemlog which was I think from the reserve queue
|
|
if I'm not mistaken, let me just check that.
|
|
Yep, from the reserve queue.
|
|
So what traditionally happens in the Northern Hemisphere during the summer is we get a little
|
|
in shows. So we're burning, burning through shows from the reserve queue.
|
|
Six shows have been pulled in from the reserve queue.
|
|
And just so you know what that is.
|
|
When you upload a show to HPR, if you're a new host, just pick the first slot.
|
|
No problem.
|
|
And if you want, first new hosts always should pick the first slot.
|
|
Just and introduce yourself.
|
|
If you're putting, if you're coming back and you have say two shows and you don't know what to do
|
|
with them, say put one in 14 days from now and then put the next one into the reserve slot.
|
|
Stuff that's not interviews, stuff that's not time related or whatever.
|
|
So stuff very much like this custom KDE shortcuts are very useful.
|
|
And in this show Gemlog explain to us how to set up shortcuts in KDE.
|
|
And if you don't use these, they're very, very useful.
|
|
I use LXQT myself and the same philosophy has moved over there.
|
|
LXQT is a light version of inspired by KDE, but very light version of it.
|
|
So I use them all the time.
|
|
You know, something like you copy a URL and you just control all it.
|
|
Control all the time and it opens a URL.
|
|
Control windows C and you can, it takes a screenshot of the desk.
|
|
You can copy something and it'll figure out if it's a URL or it'll do text.
|
|
It'll translate it from the image to text and based on what it finds in the text,
|
|
it'll either open up an image editor or go to a web browser or run something else.
|
|
So that's super, super useful.
|
|
Little shortcuts like that.
|
|
No comment on that episode, which is another thing you'll notice during the summer season
|
|
that there's less people around.
|
|
But what ends up happening is that people get back from vacation and then they'll be listening
|
|
to these shows again. So not not a worry, not a worry there.
|
|
So the next day we had Belroy Tech Kit, where KDE shares his thoughts on the Belroy
|
|
Travel Kit. Sorry.
|
|
Well, he says Tech Kit and then he refers to it as the Travel Kit.
|
|
So I didn't know what this was actually.
|
|
He gave a good description in the notes.
|
|
So I went and had a look.
|
|
It is basically a pouch to carry your with a elastic straps and such to carry your stuff.
|
|
And what I found most interesting about this show was all the doodles that he has in it.
|
|
So I imagine if we give out free one of these to every person listening to HPR,
|
|
they would all have different selection of must-have items in their kit.
|
|
So it's very interesting to hear that.
|
|
If you want to do a show on what you would put into your kit,
|
|
then please do that and send it into HPR.
|
|
That would be great.
|
|
The following day we had a episode by myself about my Sony WH-CH700N,
|
|
which had a 2DP stops working in Fedora.
|
|
And this was very much a tick troubling issue that had been trouble shooting for ages.
|
|
And I found the most obvious of fixes in a one-line forum post by Hank
|
|
and Hank, if by any chance you are listening to this over there in the Fedora forums,
|
|
thank you so much for putting that in it.
|
|
Ding the bell and when we look at the most obvious thing that was going on.
|
|
So these are great headphones, by the way.
|
|
Absolutely, I would recommend them except you get a great for repair.
|
|
You can open up the used standard screws, I've replaced batteries,
|
|
I've replaced the cups on them.
|
|
I've had leads and stuff where the fell down,
|
|
where kids fell down the flight of stairs in the train station.
|
|
And then they didn't work, they'd bring them home, sold their back on the speakers,
|
|
and they work perfectly.
|
|
Great little, great headsets.
|
|
So we're expensive at the time, but well, well worth it.
|
|
The following day we had the community news and there were two comments on that episode.
|
|
The first one was by Ken Fallon, which was the policy check.
|
|
And it was the link to, you should not be moderated.
|
|
We're welcoming, etc., etc., community news summaries about
|
|
for normal shows, we expect host to mark the shows as sensitive in nature,
|
|
including apparent advisory, nothing offenses.
|
|
During last month's community news, I felt that so yeah,
|
|
so it's about that episode.
|
|
People more or less agreed with that, so not a lot of controversy.
|
|
And that one, Torrance, as thanks for the tips for growing run in SQLDB.
|
|
I'd like to let it go as I find it a little bit too convoluted.
|
|
I'd love to see a feature on HPR to easily find all past comments by folks.
|
|
This can be done on general internet forums, etc.
|
|
Yeah, it can be, but what HPR is, it's not a general internet forum.
|
|
So what we are is a podcast and the comments are associated with that podcast
|
|
and should travel around with that podcast.
|
|
So we have a different approach.
|
|
Here in HPR, it is a different sort of the normal rules don't apply.
|
|
Whether the shoulder knot would make a good show and send them in,
|
|
and we will, we will all enjoy your episode.
|
|
The next day we had a show from Dave Morris.
|
|
Writing a function or script to find a given file, and this one had several
|
|
comments, naturally excellent notes there, as ever, Dave.
|
|
And this was the one that I had never come across.
|
|
They print a percent p option per cent app at all using find.
|
|
I'd never use that.
|
|
And I find this, I think I'm fairly, fairly good at using the find command,
|
|
but the print app one I'd never thought to use and it will be another
|
|
addition to my arsenal.
|
|
As ever, you know, Dave puts in your place.
|
|
Just calmly comes out there and goes, boof, and by the way,
|
|
but there are four comments to that show.
|
|
First one was Archer 72 saying it's in my memory.
|
|
Hi Dave. Sorry, I didn't say it like that at all.
|
|
Dave, thanks for the show.
|
|
This is one that I have to refer to at a later date.
|
|
For now, I'm putting in my memory bank to refer back to Archer 72.
|
|
Yes, Archer 72.
|
|
And I will put in my memory bank for you to remind me which show it was.
|
|
Tojet says, an alternative method, I use a similar pattern to find the newest and oldest.
|
|
So where the pattern is any valid file in pattern and path if needed.
|
|
And then pattern equals a asterisk.text for text in the current directory or pattern equals
|
|
do one slash asterisk.sh for all the sh files in deer one.
|
|
Or for example, pattern equals four such deer two for four such and then open
|
|
square brackets a dash j close square bracket asterisk for files beginning with lower case a
|
|
two j in directory two find the newest file.
|
|
And then he puts us basically I'm not going to go through these but various different things
|
|
that you can do. I use in the direct command dash one tq pattern and then pipes its head
|
|
to get the first one you file where he replaces.
|
|
Actually, you know what? Tojet that's a show there.
|
|
Why would I be explaining this what you're doing when you can do it?
|
|
That's a show right there. Thank you. Next comment Dave Morris.
|
|
Thanks Archer 72. I hope you find the ideas in this script useful in future.
|
|
At least to trigger future ideas of your own.
|
|
And Dave says to Tojet, thanks. I like the use of deer as an alternative to find.
|
|
And it's a show right there by the way, can't say.
|
|
I have to use find in the part for its alternative pattern matching limited as it is.
|
|
And I probably wouldn't stuck in my find rut as a consequence.
|
|
I shall resolve to use deer more often.
|
|
I probably I would probably have added said call in the pipeline to return the newest name
|
|
and remove the double quotes, but that's just me.
|
|
So I am not familiar with the direct command and would love a show on it.
|
|
And the following day is my desktop applications by Kibby.
|
|
And again, one from the reserve queue.
|
|
And this is the type of thing that you can pop into the reserve queue.
|
|
It's not going to. It's not going to go too old.
|
|
The reserve queue life span is about a year.
|
|
So you shows.
|
|
Well, probably go in there and be out within a year.
|
|
So in this.
|
|
Kibby goes through some of his applications.
|
|
Not the standard ones that are already installed,
|
|
but these are the list of ones that you would install.
|
|
And you must have applications that are probably in your repels,
|
|
like pinky inkscape and gimp and telegram and calibrary, etc.
|
|
And some good ones in there that I'd never heard of.
|
|
So have a check out the show.
|
|
Very good.
|
|
And yet again, another one from the reserve queue,
|
|
which is why we have two hoku shows in short succession.
|
|
And Oga basically says, well,
|
|
you know, over the years, I listen to a lot of YouTube
|
|
and sometimes I listen to some stuff and sometimes I,
|
|
sorry, listen and watch, obviously.
|
|
And my taste changed.
|
|
So in the preceding years since the last time he did this,
|
|
he updated us on what he's listening to now.
|
|
I'm watching now.
|
|
So several things, if you're familiar with,
|
|
if you're familiar with Huka,
|
|
several things come up.
|
|
So Paul McCartney music, for example,
|
|
Dr. Who, science and history and Irish music,
|
|
or traditional Irish music,
|
|
at least come up there.
|
|
No surprises really.
|
|
And some good overlap.
|
|
And some channels where I'm very reluctant to go to,
|
|
to be honest, because I'll be sucked down the rabbit hole.
|
|
But great, great episode there.
|
|
Huka, thank you very much.
|
|
And he's already had three of these
|
|
been taken from the reserve queue.
|
|
So yeah, that.
|
|
Archers 72 says, hi,
|
|
thanks for this episode.
|
|
I enjoyed the stories you had about each channel.
|
|
Archers 72.
|
|
Great one.
|
|
Yes, and if you folks want to do that,
|
|
pop them into the reserve queue, that would be great.
|
|
And remember, people stop sending in shows
|
|
and the reserve queue runs empty.
|
|
All we're going to do is take all the other shows
|
|
that are already posted, play them one after the other,
|
|
and then we're going to shut down HPR as a project,
|
|
archive it, and say goodbye.
|
|
And thank you for the fish.
|
|
That's not a joke.
|
|
That is the plan.
|
|
There's no point in maintaining something for the want of us.
|
|
So if you're into what we're doing,
|
|
free Libra content released on the Creative Commons licenses,
|
|
done by people for the people available on RSS and any platform,
|
|
and then one show a year is all it takes.
|
|
So the following day, we had a hookah
|
|
who had already scheduled the show once in advance,
|
|
part of the science fiction and fantasy series,
|
|
the first doctor, part two.
|
|
And this is absolutely excellent.
|
|
It gives me lots of food for thought,
|
|
and my son and I were thinking of going back
|
|
and trying to root out a lot of the old doctor who episodes
|
|
and see if it could catch us all up.
|
|
So thanks, Kebi, hookah for that.
|
|
So the next day, we had an interesting show from Lee,
|
|
who's talking to Elizabeth, one of our other hosts,
|
|
about her role as a content moderator for a platform and the internet.
|
|
And Kevin O'Brien says,
|
|
nice discussion, I really enjoyed the discussion here.
|
|
It's an interesting topic, very relevant to HPR
|
|
and very instant indicators.
|
|
Yeah, and I personally found this super interesting
|
|
from a from a HPR janitor point of view as well.
|
|
So great show, glad she was able to add that,
|
|
and thanks very much Lee for posting the show first.
|
|
Has you made part two in depth?
|
|
And this was from Oxo, who we had some questions
|
|
about his previous episode about what it is.
|
|
And he went into more depth about why you would do it.
|
|
And it's about taking a building up a distribution
|
|
using a selection of scripts for his arch X64 system.
|
|
So you run it, you've got the zero in it,
|
|
the base can't post apps.
|
|
And then you have like a custom distribution.
|
|
Kind of similar to what I've done in the past
|
|
with you take a distro and your own Ansible,
|
|
installing all the bits and bobs on top of that.
|
|
But a lot more, this is a lot more in details
|
|
and flexible, so create a little system there.
|
|
So again, from the reserve queue,
|
|
we had a hookah with even more subscriptions back to space,
|
|
this year behind the sofa.
|
|
So again, excellent selection.
|
|
Archer 72 says agrees, easy listening.
|
|
Thank you for the show.
|
|
It's interesting to hear the stories behind each channel,
|
|
also very pleasant to listen to.
|
|
Couldn't agree more, could not agree more.
|
|
So the next episode was how I use NewsBoke,
|
|
NewsBolt for podcast and Reddit,
|
|
putting together for podcast listening.
|
|
So he has some, he has got a config and config NewsBolt.
|
|
Sorry, dot, hundredly, dot,
|
|
vague NewsBolt and URLs.
|
|
And that's included here in the show.
|
|
And then how you would use it and set it up.
|
|
And basically they, the steps involved.
|
|
Well, I don't use NewsBoke myself,
|
|
but we've had a lot of, it's,
|
|
it's looks like an excellent session there.
|
|
It's a CLI terminal application.
|
|
So Antoine says, thank you.
|
|
Very pleasant listening and learning.
|
|
Thank you.
|
|
I also came to know of stior.org.
|
|
Archer 72 replies saying,
|
|
hi, Antoine, thanks.
|
|
I'm happy that this podcast was good to listen to.
|
|
And thanks for the link.
|
|
Like Ken says, it's the currency of thanks.
|
|
It's the currency which we, which we pay the hosts.
|
|
He also says, open a browser quick tip.
|
|
Change open in browser setting in NewsBolt config token Firefox
|
|
by using the go to the hash browser link handler.
|
|
And the change that line to browser space,
|
|
quote, Firefox space, percent, low case, you quote.
|
|
And Antoine replies, ah, that's what I understood.
|
|
I was listening last night on the bed.
|
|
And then I was talking about lemme.stf.org.
|
|
I wanted to know that instance of lemme.
|
|
I thought I listened stior instead.
|
|
And then I went to the website that was no lemme,
|
|
but there was a problem there once.
|
|
Came to know it grateful to you for having presented here.
|
|
And the next episode we had introduction to Linux matters.
|
|
Long overdue, we share a taster of another excellent creative
|
|
comments podcast.
|
|
And Torren says, not as good as the Ubuntu podcast.
|
|
I can love the podcast 2028-202121.
|
|
I find that Linux masters is nowhere near as good.
|
|
Torren says, love the music for Linux masters.
|
|
Love the theme tune.
|
|
It reminds me so much of the 1980s.
|
|
So next episode, my command line applications.
|
|
So this is, this is another one from the reserve queue.
|
|
And Kevin does the same thing as he has done before.
|
|
And gives us some not installed by default applications
|
|
that he uses on his default install.
|
|
MPG123, FFNPEG, mock, links, mut, neo-fetch, and wechat.
|
|
And XOP says interesting podcast.
|
|
Thank you.
|
|
I heard you use neo-fetch.
|
|
I did too, but found out recently that it's no longer maintained.
|
|
Instead, I switched to fast fetch, which is on GitHub.
|
|
And he has configuration for the basic theme, which
|
|
is on CodeBurg at OXO.
|
|
So this is from OXO, not OXP, so type of there.
|
|
Kevin says, thanks, OXO.
|
|
Thanks for the comment.
|
|
I've never heard of fast fetch, but we'll have a look
|
|
when I get home.
|
|
Thank you for sharing.
|
|
An Archer 72 says, links browser.
|
|
I sometimes use a link browser for focusing on Merck.
|
|
It has been helpful in the options menu to select the I keys
|
|
and then save options to disk.
|
|
There's also an option for Emax keys, if needed,
|
|
by Archer.
|
|
Thanks to Archer 72.
|
|
And I was using e-links today, actually,
|
|
to check the new HPR website design.
|
|
That role is working on.
|
|
So if you're interested in following that,
|
|
go over to the repo.anonsthost.net,
|
|
forward slash HPR, and you'll see all the fun action
|
|
we're having over there.
|
|
And another one from the reserve queue.
|
|
Bit sore this month.
|
|
Hosted by Moss Bliss.
|
|
And it's about comparing two wireless keyboards.
|
|
Great idea here.
|
|
The Luchitek R400r, and the RIK 22.
|
|
And what I found interesting was
|
|
that how people use keyboards differently,
|
|
and the specific needs that you have.
|
|
So when I go out and pick a keyboard,
|
|
I'm looking for what I think is perfectly obvious thing,
|
|
but it wouldn't be necessarily obvious to everybody else.
|
|
And similarly, once you go wireless,
|
|
where are you going to use that?
|
|
Are you using it from to the TV, et cetera?
|
|
So it's a great topic for shows here.
|
|
And in what's becoming a theme this month,
|
|
another one from the reserve queue.
|
|
We have Fix and AVI indexes.
|
|
How to fix missing or damaged AVI indexes.
|
|
And it's pretty much a simple one-liner.
|
|
FFNPEG, dashi for the input file, dashc for copy,
|
|
and then the name of the output file and the format.
|
|
And it'll go through the files, reindex them, and clean them up.
|
|
I have to admit having done this since Kevin posted this
|
|
for some of my YouTube downloads,
|
|
which go a little bit monkey sometimes.
|
|
So a great little tip there.
|
|
Thanks, Huka for that.
|
|
Now, this was an interesting show, the next one,
|
|
which was handcrafted and bartering discussion with Lisbeth.
|
|
And when I was about using Etsy and stuff,
|
|
what I found was it was an interesting approach
|
|
that's why would somebody, the whole aspect of why somebody
|
|
does stuff for free or produces goods.
|
|
Now, when you're producing something physical,
|
|
I can understand the need to get rewarded for your time.
|
|
But then I had to have a good think about it.
|
|
We're all here in HPR.
|
|
We're all devoting our time, especially this month.
|
|
An ordained amount of time has been spent on HPR.
|
|
So, by a lot of people.
|
|
So, yeah.
|
|
What is our motivation for doing that?
|
|
Why?
|
|
Why are we doing it?
|
|
Should is the only motivator money?
|
|
Thoughts and comments here on HPR episode 4429,
|
|
or better yet, listen to the show
|
|
and record your own response show.
|
|
That would be fantastic.
|
|
Ah, okay.
|
|
Then comes in with playing civilizations five, part one.
|
|
So, this is a look at the new game mechanic
|
|
in civilization five.
|
|
And there will be more of these.
|
|
So, I'll hold off on discussing this
|
|
until somebody next month who has actually played games,
|
|
kind of, kind of comment more.
|
|
Kevin is off on his vacation time.
|
|
And I hope he's having a great time
|
|
not thinking about us.
|
|
And then we had an operator with thermos refill channel
|
|
thermosol refill channel challenges.
|
|
And as with quite a lot of things coming from operator,
|
|
it takes me a while to figure out what the hell he's on about
|
|
because I think there's a lot of assumptions
|
|
that people that stuff that's very common in the US
|
|
is not so common here.
|
|
So, it turns out it's a musculoskeletal repellent efficiency.
|
|
So, this was a good show.
|
|
I was looking at the notes, go, what is he doing?
|
|
Is he building a bomb?
|
|
Is he, you see, who knows what he's up to?
|
|
But it's, it was doing refills, very good episode.
|
|
But remember, safety, don't do it.
|
|
He's a trained professional, et cetera, et cetera.
|
|
The slammer's all round.
|
|
And again, and again, from the reserve queue
|
|
to subscriptions by OK.
|
|
And then from the reserve queue again, we had operator.
|
|
We had just another show by operator.
|
|
Nerd response to you random podcasts.
|
|
And this was about a KVM set up that was mentioned.
|
|
And instead of using KVM's,
|
|
operator uses USB switches.
|
|
And it's also a really interesting approach.
|
|
So, if you're, if he sounds like you've got
|
|
a really complicated setup going on,
|
|
bodies also got gaming machines
|
|
and all sorts going on.
|
|
So, have a listen to that.
|
|
It's an interesting alternative approach
|
|
to what is proving to be a common enough problem here
|
|
on the network.
|
|
And the last show for the year, by the year I mean the month,
|
|
are just 70 do give us a follow up to his newsboard show.
|
|
And he talks about the URL list items
|
|
that he has in his newsboard config.
|
|
So, that was it for all the comments
|
|
and all the shows that have been posted so far.
|
|
There were two previous, two comments on previous shows
|
|
from the previous that were released earlier
|
|
on people made a comment.
|
|
So, back in the 1st of January, 2024,
|
|
Celeste had a show called testing the language
|
|
and matrix left a comment.
|
|
And that was review of V.
|
|
Came across this and thought it was a good review,
|
|
getting more into programming and find the language V fun to use.
|
|
Found a more comfortable others,
|
|
starting some podcasts with it.
|
|
And thanks for the podcast.
|
|
There you go folks.
|
|
One person affected by the episode,
|
|
it was worth doing, surely.
|
|
Then the next one on a show that the logbook date
|
|
called the Pakchilli project.
|
|
And Paul Jay says it was a great interview.
|
|
This was back on the 30th of June,
|
|
which was the previous month.
|
|
And Paul Jay said great interview.
|
|
It's a great application,
|
|
but I never knew the background to its development.
|
|
Thanks for catching up with Nick
|
|
and making this show very interesting.
|
|
Source code project Don Wright, exclamation mark.
|
|
So then we have the comments from this month
|
|
that we've already done.
|
|
And then we're moving on to the middle.
|
|
So on the community news summaries.
|
|
So I submitted, I submitted a post-hial
|
|
for a normal show we expect a host to mark shows
|
|
that are expensive in nature to include a parental advisory
|
|
as described in HPR 2210.
|
|
For example, see human, sister to human reproduction,
|
|
HPR 30109 as an example.
|
|
Nothing offensive is in the notes or in the summaries,
|
|
but the show includes sufficient warnings
|
|
to give parents guardians and people
|
|
likely to be triggered by the topic time to turn it off.
|
|
During last month's community news recording,
|
|
I felt the word, some of the words were not appropriate
|
|
for reading out on the community news.
|
|
So I, and I've just skipped over them again.
|
|
So I limited my comments to giving the spirit
|
|
of the fate of male chicks in the egg industry as horrific.
|
|
Commenters objected and feels that I should have read out
|
|
the comment.
|
|
Therefore, I'm putting the decision to the community.
|
|
Does the policy allow for the janitors to skip sections
|
|
of the comments while reading the community news
|
|
and the policy reads, the audio and view show
|
|
will not be monitored, dot, dot, dot.
|
|
We do not fit editor moderation center
|
|
and evaluate the audio use of it.
|
|
We trust you to do that.
|
|
Please don't, so that only relates to the audio upload,
|
|
the rest of the messages are managed by the HBR community
|
|
and may be edited.
|
|
In my view is that the community news is a welcoming show
|
|
where new hosts come to get feedback on their episode
|
|
and for many who use it to decide which shows to download.
|
|
The spirit of the comment was conveyed
|
|
and reading a formulation would require rapidly
|
|
an episode in a parental advisory,
|
|
reducing its download appeal and as such,
|
|
the community as a whole would suffer.
|
|
Wendy Gauss says, I think it's perfectly
|
|
reasonable for the janitors to admit sections of the comments
|
|
that they may be concerned are not suitable
|
|
for the community news audience.
|
|
The original comment is still available on the website
|
|
and the interest of parties can see it there.
|
|
Since the definition of what is required
|
|
for parental advisory is relative,
|
|
I'm more than happy to leave it to the question
|
|
of the janitor reading the comment
|
|
as long as they mention what they're making an emission.
|
|
If the commenter is concerned about listening listeners
|
|
are not getting their full message,
|
|
then they're more than welcome to record their comments
|
|
in full and submitted as a next episode.
|
|
Audio of the show is not, this is by Jim Leonard.
|
|
Audio of the show was not moderated.
|
|
HBR does not have any such guidelines or rules
|
|
and summaries of shows, its contents or its reception,
|
|
moderating the gamma's unity show,
|
|
does not break my rule and my humble opinion.
|
|
Completely at the janitor's discretion
|
|
whether or not I feel as appropriate
|
|
or not would have been my choice.
|
|
It was not against the rules of policy,
|
|
no harm has been done.
|
|
Kevin Durant says,
|
|
seems to me like this is the case
|
|
where it's a good solution.
|
|
I tend to agree with Jim Leonard
|
|
that there is no state rule that has been broken,
|
|
but I also see that the commenter wanted to make a point.
|
|
And then what happens, my general rule is
|
|
that if you have strong agreement arguments make record
|
|
a show, comments are not intended to be a social flux
|
|
but shows of their nature are.
|
|
And I would mark that shows explicit
|
|
and leave it at that.
|
|
I don't agree with that.
|
|
I think it should be wrapped up in a warning
|
|
about the content, then do your show.
|
|
Does the policy allow for generous to skip contents
|
|
that the community can use?
|
|
My answer would be yes, says Henrik.
|
|
And Carl D says in somebody says,
|
|
I agree with all that has been said
|
|
to additional thoughts.
|
|
Community news are providing a service community
|
|
and I think it's ultimately up to them how to do that.
|
|
I think the existing show format is valuable
|
|
for consistent listening experience,
|
|
needs of onboarding new hosts,
|
|
but it shouldn't be treated as a computer program
|
|
that the hosts are meant to follow
|
|
in a way to guarantee exploitability.
|
|
Letting a single commenter calls the entire show
|
|
to need content warning is unfair to all other commenters
|
|
and hosts who contributed for a month
|
|
and wouldn't want their reach limited.
|
|
I think the approach taken in the example shared,
|
|
summarise the content rather than read them for Basem,
|
|
balances both concerns perfectly.
|
|
And as I'm thinking that,
|
|
I think I skipped one comment as well.
|
|
Let me go back because I had wanted to say something about it,
|
|
but I'll come to it now.
|
|
I'll go back and get it.
|
|
Evening all, my view at this from Paul Jewel,
|
|
my view at the approach taken to the community
|
|
news was okay, the region contents are available.
|
|
Should anybody wish to follow them?
|
|
As already stated, the commenter can make a show
|
|
if they wish to elaborate.
|
|
I firmly believe the presenters of the community news
|
|
have a right to choose whether to repeat a comment
|
|
for Basem, summarise them as long as they're clear
|
|
and must be summarised.
|
|
No one has the right to put words in the presenter's mouth
|
|
without the presenter's having the right to refuse
|
|
to say that, thank you.
|
|
What else, what else, what else?
|
|
Oh yeah, mailing list discussions.
|
|
So that was that.
|
|
Then, yeah, great.
|
|
We had our first copyright violation
|
|
where real podcasters now deal with it,
|
|
but there are some reasons.
|
|
A my ability to deal with it
|
|
has actually not opened another kind of worms.
|
|
So to that, there were two comments.
|
|
Whoa, HPRO finally arrives, this cloud.
|
|
And Christopher Zimmerman says,
|
|
it only took them 16 years to find it.
|
|
It's an amazing, but modern AI,
|
|
nevermind technology can do.
|
|
Well, as it happens,
|
|
when I went to object to that saying
|
|
that I was going to Google edit the show or whatever,
|
|
we basically were faced with two options.
|
|
One was we either had to have rights for the music
|
|
or two the show got banned.
|
|
So the show was banned now on Spotify.
|
|
That episode is no longer there.
|
|
But then when I was reading out
|
|
the, as we were posting the rejecting a show
|
|
on grounds that it's using HPRO to push a product or view,
|
|
and there's an episode I'm not reading it out here.
|
|
And it's not because I don't want to read it out yet.
|
|
It's because I'm already getting horse
|
|
doing the show by myself.
|
|
So we will be having it.
|
|
Let me just check today.
|
|
It will be coming out on this Thursday.
|
|
So in four days time, two days after you listen to this.
|
|
So HPRO 4, 4, 3, 9 on Thursday, the seventh.
|
|
All those basically have eSpeak read all the comments in there.
|
|
But if you want this live or whatever,
|
|
you can always join the mail list and have your say
|
|
in a respectful manner.
|
|
And I was talking about something there.
|
|
Yeah, editing the show though.
|
|
I can't edit the show because we don't edit that
|
|
blah, blah, blah before we listen to them.
|
|
So I would now need to contact the host
|
|
and ask their permission to edit it.
|
|
And if I don't get permission or they're gone
|
|
or the email doesn't work,
|
|
then we're in a bit of a stew again.
|
|
That's what we do.
|
|
Okay, I guess we can take it down.
|
|
But yeah, can we edit the shows?
|
|
Wow, this month has been policy decisions all the way.
|
|
And you know what?
|
|
I dislike that.
|
|
I just like upload shows.
|
|
Just upload boring shows, boring shows.
|
|
That would be absolutely awesome.
|
|
Not that your shows are boring,
|
|
but just upload the shows and it boring for me to post them.
|
|
I just post them and they go out shows coming in.
|
|
They go out.
|
|
I don't want to be involved.
|
|
Yeah, don't get me involved.
|
|
That should be your goal.
|
|
Alrighty.
|
|
We're short of shows, folks.
|
|
If you're posting shows now because there are a few people
|
|
who are posted shows in comments to the mail storm
|
|
that's just happened.
|
|
So you'll have a look at that.
|
|
But if you're new host, pick the first slot.
|
|
If you're an older host, try picking the first available,
|
|
you know, two weeks out, three weeks out.
|
|
Pick the Fridays, the third, zero Friday.
|
|
Leave some slots there for new hosts to come in.
|
|
And other than that, I have not a lot else to say.
|
|
What am I missing?
|
|
Nothing.
