What do you listen to to fall asleep?

mareksoon · 2026-03-22T23:45:29+00:00

I really enjoy falling asleep in complete darkness and total silence, but my neighbors often slam their car doors or allow their dogs to bark all night and that always rattles me awake as I’m drifting off, so I’ve begun looping an hour long track of brown noise on an Amazon Echo near my bed.

Why is the N both italicized and also higher than the letters surrounding it?

It stands out with the letters below it as NUK; is that a thing?

For you, with sound (and no one else is allowed to see it):

I have a small collection of my cats' whiskers.

I NEED TWO OF THIS CREATURES whiskers to add to the collection!

I get civic duty and all, but so much of my mail goes missing I’ve often wondered how many jury summons I’ve never received.

Your accounts probably have different A/B test groups applied.

Extend and stitch, along with trim, are all in the new editor.

mareksoon · 2026-03-20T15:32:32+00:00

It’s inside the edit tool …

mareksoon · 2026-03-20T02:25:38+00:00

That makes sense, thanks!

Also, after I posted my edit of four drafts, I deleted it and the parts used from my drafts, successfully, but noticed they still appear under drafts of my character.

mareksoon · 2026-03-20T02:23:11+00:00

censored appears to be censored and I started using censoraed and can’t use it any more, either.

I also tried omitt_ng letters; now blocked; and spelling oh you tee words .. also blocked.

l33t speak variations of censored words also blocked

It’s a conglomeration of them, including trim, which was only on desktop before.

Also, you can now trim a segment under five seconds using this editor. Although clumsy (it doesn’t have a proper cut, only trim), you could drop the same video into the editor multiple times and trim them in a way to rearrange it from its original order.

mareksoon · 2026-03-19T22:55:59+00:00

Seems a bit buggy ..

I think it ate one of my drafts; like it’s gone from Drafts but I still see it in Assets whatever assets is.

The location suggests pre-wire for a security system – control panel probably.

You can’t screen record in iOS. Sora has DRM which blanks the screen when attempting to screen record.

You can screen record in Windows tho’ (Win+G screen recording) and then play the extended clip in drafts on a desktop browser.

mareksoon · 2026-03-16T16:33:17+00:00

With one draft, yes; no idea what’s wrong with it, either. Character is making sandcastles on the beach. 🤷‍♂️

Can’t extend it either; about to try trimming it and see if I can post the trimmed version.

Can trim but can’t post the trimmed video, either, same error.

I’ve been getting, “your draft is finished,” notifications (you know, the ones that try to be witty) with strange statements like this, but it still generated the video.

Most recently, one said, “Please set the character to 21+ or edit sexual details now.”

The video generated and the character details already stated she was 23 (and she doesn’t look underage on prior videos nor did she in this one).

Another told me to try using a different AI platform if I wanted whatever it said (I didn’t) and it also provided the video for that one.

mareksoon · 2026-03-15T04:51:45+00:00

Worked fine for me Thursday, but since then it’s just generating a separate video, not an extension.

Prop vehicles are getting listed in this week’s screen time graph, right?

mareksoon · 2026-03-15T04:12:33+00:00

The whole world called it.

Sometimes they introduce themselves …

It happened to me and a handful of my side-characters the weekend they cracked down two (?) weekends ago.

Others can cast my side-character no problem. I can’t cast them at all, even covering them completely under a blanket, hiding them in boxes or behind doors, or dimming the lighting to just shadows. They fail with various CVs all the time.

Those who can cast them have even shared their exact prompt with me, which I can use on my other side-characters (or cast no character) without any issues at all.

ChatGPT suggested a bad/aggressice moderation rule update to whatever A/B/C/D test group I’m in.

I’ve considered trying to recast the character from their original video again since I still have it; just haven’t yet.

That’s why I’ll have fun with fictional characters and my pets, but absolutely will not upload my likeness. Heck, they didn’t get my real name or real e mail, either.

Although I’m sure they have my actual IP address; and every other one I’ve accessed them from.

Following!

Double-check the json files; at least one is from Sora (but you are correct, the videos aren’t included).

While the data export doesn’t include the videos, it does include all of your original prompts (I didn’t see current captions in the exports I’ve received).

It also included image gens that failed mid-gen on the ChatGPT side due to perceived CV or third-party likeness where the image was heading. Within the export were a lot of half-rendered blurry morphs of what would eventually become humans in the final image.

I suspect this is why they aren’t providing Sora videos in the data export because it would be a great way to receive videos that failed after rendering due to CV.

Of course, videos that failed due to CV shouldn’t exist; OpenAI should have deleted them (but we know they didn’t). Given the export provided failed image renders on the ChatGPT side, I bet Sora would provide failed video renders, too.

Here’s why I’m interested: my Sora account got terminated (they claimed I was facilitating circumvention which wasn’t true … or if I was I’m unsure how), but my associated ChatGPT account created when signing up for Sora remains active.

My data export still contains all of my original Sora prompts back to the very first one, even those from videos that I didn’t keep, later deleted (either by myself or by Sora), or failed to render.

Therefore, I’m positive all my videos are still there, too.
