And no captions for this that can't hear.

[–] CuddlyCassowary 7 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Do livecasts often have captions? I’ll bet if you commented on their feed they’d try to figure out how to make it happen.

PowerPoint actually has decent live captioning built in.
Just have a green slide, then chromakey it out.

There are plenty of web services that do a similar thing for a fee.

Oh cool. That’s good to know. Thanks! I have no affiliation with these guys, but I’ll keep that in mind for my own purposes.

I have seen some live events on YouTube with captions, but autogenerated captions may not be available to all channels.

Oh good, I was worried it was going to die down to a 4 and 3.

Maybe the damage will be so catastrophic people will learn something. Not likely, but one can have a sliver of hope right?

I'm a leftist. I wouldn't wish this on the most red leaning state. Basically, fuck you
