Ok, not sure if this is supported, but does anyone know of a text-to-speech prank caller that actually works?

What is that?

:p

Like you would enter a #

And then a specified voice type and some text, and the online machine thing, would call that person and read the text to them, usually under the name and number that you can also make the caller ID read.

Great fun.

....... he means something like one of those programs that people use for the hearing impaired and voiceless.

and i would not condone that. please do not post any links to those things, it is first and foremost illegal to do so, and those services are meant to be used by people with REAL problems.

prank calling in any way shape or form is illegal though. keep that in mind, so this thread is kind of borderline...

remember it only takes a few idiots to mess things up for the people who really need them.

Text to speech would be useless if you cant hear the speech, and no, they have actual prank programs.

Actually its very legal, as long as you dont take it too far or too serious, I've checked this up beforehand ;)

wikipedia said:
the call must be done without the intent to "annoy, abuse, threaten, or harass". Arguably then, if the intent of the call is to amuse, confuse, or simply to engage the call's recipient, there is no violation of the Telecommunications Act
Doing it to my friends, most of the time only once, and they too think its funny, so there is no harm done at all.
Its not like im calling the police or bomb threat places.

i thought you meant a program such as "iprelay" WHERE YOU TYPE, and some one TALKS FOR YOU.and yes that is for the hearing impaired and/or voiceless.

and yes it is illegal, so long as the person told you to stop calling, it only take s once for them to say that before it becomes illegal.

calling people with the intent of harassment is against the law.

p.s don't use wiki pedia EVER again to check the legitimacy of something.

You do know that wikipedia is right and edited if wrong.
So wikipedia would lie about the date of assassination of JFK or something?

Back on topic, its not with the intent of harassment, again
Arguably then, if the intent of the call is to amuse, confuse, or simply to engage the call's recipient, there is no violation of the Telecommunications Act.

Its to amuse me and my friends, most of the time the person on the other line too, or sometimes to confuse.

Theres no harm done for gods sake, i already said that. I know what im doing. My dad is a cop and my mom works in court.

A good "Is your refrigerator running?" never fails to give me a good laugh.

And neither does it do any harm at all.

Yes, its fun to make up your own, especially about inside jokes and the such, but having a funny sounding voice that you know wont laugh and sounds so fake it just so funny ;)

Because the government is going to ban them because some kids used it for prank calls?

I don't think he has the intention of calling them over and over again... and has trust issues.

Would I would do is use the one on your computer and just get a headset and modify it up so that you can put it near the phone.

number one lol, no cuz the people running the programm will cease and disist, and to number to just use skype or ipcall with a controller to change the input from mic etc etc.

Umm... I'm sorry but that makes no sense to me.

  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
