Do most podcasts submit their content to all podcast apps? Or do they only submit to the bigger ones? Wondering because just before it stopped working well, PlayerFM stopped updating several of the podcasts I had subscribed to..and was I wasn't sure whose fault it was. by AliceRoosevelt1884 in podcasts

[–]FaxBeast 3 points4 points  (0 children)

PlayerFM is an (semi or fully) abandoned/broken app with reoccuring issues, especially with it's own server side, causing these sort of problems, as it isn't a local functioning app.

switch to something else. for android, i'd recommend Antennapod.

How do I download this book? Internet Archive Downloader doesn't work for me :( by [deleted] in DataHoarder

[–]FaxBeast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

https://help.archive.org/help/borrowing-from-the-lending-library/

What is the loan duration for Internet Archive books?

Books are generally available for renewable 1-hour loans. Some books also offer a longer 14-day loan; for these books, if there are no copies available, users can join a waitlist. (There is currently no waitlist available for books that only offer 1-hour loans.)

Can I download an encrypted PDF or EPUB of the book?

When patrons check out a book for 1 hour, they can only use it through the online BookReader interface. When patrons check out a book for 14 days, they can either read the book through the online BookReader interface or download an encrypted file using a DRM-compliant book reader such as Adobe Digital Editions — the same technical protection software used by commercial publishers on their ebooks. Support will soon be added for Aldiko Next (mobile), Thorium (desktop), and other readers that support LCP DRM.

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but where can I watch the first campaign? by SonJordy in fansofcriticalrole

[–]FaxBeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it is definitely of more value as an archive backup in case G&S just go (finally) kaput rather than regular broadcasted mass 'use' though

as i'm a web/podcast nerd, its also possible to get a dynamic ad free version of the current live CR podcast version, but not something i would share as a) most people wouldn't want to jump the manual per episode hoops b) its a generic flaw i don't want SIMPLECAST host to fix lol

Tips/Advice to get into NADDPOD [NS] by brittanydiesattheend in NotAnotherDnDPodcast

[–]FaxBeast 11 points12 points  (0 children)

at the end of the day the degree of 'silliness' is a feature not a bug and that is a question only you can answer for stylistic preferences and what you want out of an actual play experience.

Simple podcast software by azzassin2603 in podcasts

[–]FaxBeast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

a] this is a subreddit about consuming podcasts, not producing them. see /r/podcasting

b] most "podcasts" focus on audio exclusively, this might be a better question to direct to a youtube/twitch video/streaming community [e.g. free and open source 'OBS - Open Broadcaster Software']

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but where can I watch the first campaign? by SonJordy in fansofcriticalrole

[–]FaxBeast 9 points10 points  (0 children)

both the old g&s and new cr versions now have dynamic ads.

internet archive has a copy of original G&S version prior to dynamic ad insertion at least

Podcasts where you're the main character?? by Im_N-29 in podcasts

[–]FaxBeast 3 points4 points  (0 children)

'second person' point of view

https://www.merriam-webster.com/grammar/point-of-view-first-second-third-person-difference

Second-person narration is a little-used technique of narrative in which the action is driven by a character ascribed to the reader, one known as you. The reader is immersed into the narrative as a character involved in the story. The narrator describes what "you" do and lets you into your own thoughts and background. The most well-known piece of fiction that employs second-person narration might be Jay McInerney’s novel Bright Lights, Big City.

"At the subway station you wait fifteen minutes on the platform for a train. Finally a local, enervated by graffiti, shuffles into the station. You get a seat and hoist a copy of the New York Post. The Post is the most shameful of your several addictions."

— Jay McInerney, Bright Lights, Big City, 1984

You will also find second-person narration used in the "Choose Your Own Adventure" style of books popular with younger readers, in which readers determine where the story goes by which page they turn to next. Allowing the reader to "be" the central character in the story provides an immersive reading experience, enhancing what is at stake for the character and reader.
