Earlier quoted context omitted.

Red Alert II for me would be great. A plea to the various lab engineering teams: please create a json format or whatever that lets me configure this with voices locally. I am a happy user as of late of the Codex app by Open AI. It would be great if I could just give it some JSON somehow and it just works. I suppose skills can do this and I will try that later on. But I think this stuff matters, and it would be nice t…

It has Red Alert 2 voices. Check the carousel under the Choose your character section

Oh wow!! Thanks for letting me know, perfect

This is cool. I was tempted to try it until I saw the curl | bash pipe, then no. This workflow is getting really old. I guess that I also don't want to pollute old good memories by associating them with work/Claude

Totally agree, it's the main reason I'll never recommend Linux to anyone, because you can't expect normal people to understand these things.

But it's kinda funny to me that you just said "I was going to run this code on my system, until I saw some other code in the same repo, and now I refuse to run it" :D It's all the same repo, you're willing to try part of the code, but not another part of it. Completely arbitrary.

I cloned the repository just for the sound files. I may hook them to my terminal for long running jobs when I have some time to have some fun. Maybe a wrapper script.

Hmm, why not?

Finally someone doing actual good work with LLMs instead of “Claude, shit me out another useless SaaS”. Just as was foretold: an actual differentiator is creativity, not coding ability.

Agreed. Now I'm still waiting for someone to succeed at a clean-room recreation of Majel Barrett's voice, so we can finally have computers sound like they always should have. We could've been there a decade ago, but the high-quality audio samples, made officially and specifically with possibility of this use in mind, got trapped somewhere between the estate, producers, and a commercial interest that called dibs, and…

I did this. She recorded clean (imo, i cleaned it up) audio for “Star Trek: The Next Generation Interactive Technical Manual” which is available on archive.org.
