Hi, this is Allison Sheridan of the NosillaCast Apple Podcast, hosted at Podfeet.com, a technology geek podcast with an EVER so slight Apple bias. Today is Sunday, October 20, 2024, and this is show number 1015.<\/p>\n

I’ve got a great show for you this week but it’s not exactly what I had planned. Last week you’ll remember that I had to use an AI-synthesized voice to read one of the articles for the show, and I promised you I’d talk about how I did it this week.<\/p>\n

While I did write up an extensive article explaining the two services I worked with and the pros and cons of both, my voice isn’t yet strong enough this week to go through it. Don’t worry though, I do have one article and a follow-on conversation with Bart that will entertain and perhaps even educate you, and next week you’ll learn about how I created my fancy new laryngitis-replacing voice.<\/p>\n

Let’s Talk Photography 133: Better than Your Eyes!<\/a><\/h4>\n

This week Bart was noodling what he should talk about on his next episode of Let’s Talk Photography and asked if there was anything I’d like to hear about. The answer I suggested turned into him inviting me onto the show to talk with him. The title of the episode is “Better than Your Eyes”, and it’s a perfect description of our discussion. We talked about how our phone cameras can now take better photos than we can even see. I learned this when viewing the recent Aurora photos posted online as people explained that the color wasn’t really there to their eyes. While it is possible to see the color, the Aurora needs to be quite bright and Bart explains why this is true.<\/p>\n

Then we moved into talking about Steve and my new telescope, the Unistellar Equinox 2, which allows us to view and take photos of distant astronomical objects even from the light pollution capital of the world, Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

As Bart and I always do, we had great fun sharing stories and even talking about the apps we use to track celestial objects in the sky.<\/p>\n

Our hero of the week is Keith Kubie. Maybe he heard about the cost of an AI voice for last week, or maybe he just realized he gets a lot of education and enjoyment out of the shows we produce here at the Podfeet Podcasts. Either way, he took his hard-earned dollars and took them to podfeet.com\/patreon<\/a> and signed up to support the show. I can’t thank Keith and all of the other Patreon members enough for their patronage. It makes me feel good and<\/em> helps to pay for AI-generated voices when I get sick.<\/p>\n
