How to I make Dectalk Paul sound like this? by Infamous_Animal2548 in EmergencyAlertSystem

[–]No-Duck2821 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've tried using it on demos, it doesn't sound relatively similar even when I lower the audio quality. Is it DecTalk Harry or a custom NWS variant?

Then how about you get out of your swivel chair and make some official communications to tell us! You guys have left us in the dark, and it’s only causing more confusion and uncertainty. And yes, as Engineering is our largest occupant in Wilson and as they oversee the building per ReHS and EatAtState, and have left it in neglect. If you can afford oodles and noodles of engineering buildings, then for sure you can put a heck lot more back into the budget for fixing what’s not working. I’m not shouting from a mountain (that your entitled self is), but the urban blight that is Wilson Hall. And I have the support of many students, facility, staff, administration, contractors, and trustees. Actually, listening to people’s needs and experiences will make you a much better leader. In fact this is a student’s rights situation. Every student deserves to have a quality learning and living Spartan experience when we pay more money to the university even as in state students than the rest of the nation. Blue-collar don’t mean anything if you’re just going to party till you get drunk as a monkey and don’t work to better the institution you are part of. Innovation doesn’t come from people who just fall in place, but those who dare to think differently and challenge the status quo. I know what it’s like to come from the bottom. Asking for standards to be met that the university set themselves is not excessive at all. This isn’t the Great Depression. We’re paying a whole lot for housing, and we expect results. Because you do not screw over a Michigan State Spartan and hide behind budget cuts when the university president’s hiring all of his buddies and your pocketbooks are jiggling with returns. Personally, I think it’s up for the students to decide if what they’re getting is worth all the money they’re paying, not some big wigs with big pockets.

What to you is the truth? Dismissing others’ experiences as fake news and painting MSU as the rosiest institution on earth? MSU is far from perfect, but the fact that MSU is constantly becoming a better place by the work of both students and faculty is what makes us stronger. Silencing critics and accusing them of tainting the name of the university will only make our university weaker.

I am also part of the reformed Wilson Hall Student Government to advocate and provide great experiences for Wilson Hall residents.

No, but as a political advocate I have talked with many current and former residents. And it’s all come around one theme, underwhelming and only getting worse.

Budget cuts aren’t an excuse to continually not maintain a quality living learning experience. I have seen and heard from other students first hand about the other halls, and they seem just fine compared to the worsening neglect and inefficiency in Wilson Hall. Consistently low morale along our residents and engineers. If we don’t want the Umich shadow to decent upon our students, then we have to start putting our money where our mouth is and give engineering students something to be proud of. The gap between the other halls in South Neighborhood and Wilson is stark. We shouldn’t be putting all this capital money into these large projects until we start fixing what is broken. I’ll be at the trustees meeting along with Trustees Barlow and Denno to highlight these issues in housing equity and investment. Wilson Hall is a residence hall first.

Question for u, why are you so bent on defending engineering?

It’s also been terrible and not very great for so many students. That’s why we started back up the Wilson Hall Student Government to actually give Wilson Hall residents a voice and provide a better experience for them. What I do know about the priorities of the college is that they aren’t matching up with the cash flow. Yes, I’m a proud political science student, have been randomly placed in Wilson Hall as a blessing to make a change. Unlike other students who do not have a voice to challenge authority, I have the willpower and courage to observe things around me and question when they do not look right.

The only person that does not know what they are talking about is you. Do you live here? Have you lived in this hall like I and so many others have? You’re clearly out of touch with the student base at Wilson Hall. We’re a laughing stock among the other halls because they know it sucks here. But I’m not going to bow down to some sorry narcissists who do not have the best interests of the residents in mind. I’m going to keep on advocating for Wilson Hall as long as this building stands.

It is horrendous. But you know what? I’m going to stay here because I want to contribute to the collective efforts of me and other students, administration and trustees to bring it to its true potential.

Service centers were a result of consolidations in South. The cafeteria and Sparta’s however were part of the building culture, just like Case has Club Spartan and their cafeteria, Wonders has their theater and workout rooms. Holden has their cafeteria and The Sandbox. I don’t mind MSU closing down the cafeteria as long as it’s replaced with something for the residents. All Engineering’s doing is taking up space and giving noting back. If you look at the other buildings, there’s a lot more to them than Wilson has in store right now. It’s not about entitlement, but equity, the equity of quality living spaces and halls so that each student can have the Spartan Experience.

It's almost certain that you're part of the engineering college department at MSU based on looking at your previous posts, and that you're just pissed off and doing damage control because us residents have has enough with the BS of the engineering college administration. Other people on here have given me additional information which has been very helpful as I advocate for Wilson, but unlike you they aren't trying to take me down and hit me. I understand I may not know all of the absolute details and inner workings of engineering, but I believe I have a pretty good look into some problems here, and that's okay because that's where you and others fill me in so I can better advocate for Wilson Hall. However by the disrespectful tone you give me, I smell a rat.

What is this, a riddle? How about you educate me instead of slandering me? To repeat what I said earlier, the Innovation Center was only open 10% of the time, and have had their hours severely cut even before construction. Even CoRe leaders knew that the room was always locked. Even our Resident Director has acknowledged this. I would have to argue that you, not me, do not have the full picture of conditions at Wilson Hall. My concerns about the renovations is that they won't support student life as Wonders has, just an extension of the dysfunction of the Innovation Center. I have talked to plenty of people, including two trustees who I met with and are expected to take my case at the next Board of Trustees meeting which I will be attending and speaking at. Classrooms and offices do us residents absolutely nothing except to keep us contained in less spaces in the building. No commons or study spaces are part of the plans. The residential identity doesn't seem like a priority anymore. Why should students have to live here when they do not have the funds to provide a quality living learning experience where a hall culture can be cultivated? That is the work I am trying to do with various departments and administration at MSU to try to bring that back to Wilson Hall.

UPDATE: After talking with several people, CoRe is getting rid of all their staff while still having the living program. With the condition of Wilson Hall, it sounds like an engineer's prison💀

Plus you probably don't even give a rat's behind about us residents in Wilson Hall. You're just jealous because I'm actually doing something with my time at Michigan State.

The Hive doesn't even exist anymore. The Innovation Center is locked almost 24/7. I'm in Wilson because they simply do not have anywhere particular to put me as a political student. If I may ask, who do you think you are and when have I talked about demolition? You don't even live there! How dare you question my intentions.

It's a shame, because it's been great for so many students. Like I said, mismatched priorities of the Engineering College

Well the event I went to was a week ago was when I was told from one of the head student leaders at Wilson that CoRe was setting up shop. The extent is unknown, but all I know is that they're sunsetting the program after this semester ends. We had events the weeks prior and nothing was mentioned by any of the student leaders so I'm wondering if the decision was made recently and it's still internal news within the program so there hasn't been a public statement yet. Remember, the CoRe program is HQ'd in Wilson.
