       Anonradio IRC Streaming Show of Awesome
       March 13th, 2018
       ----------------------------------------
       
       IRC chat comes to life as an anonradio show!
       (Credit to cat for giving me the idea [0])
 (HTM) [0] cat's thread on Mastodon
       
       How it could work:
       
         1. An IRC bot sits in #anonradio on sdf. (Theoretically it could
            be done on com, where there is more talky traffic for
            anonradio, but I have no idea how to interface with it)
       
         2. When the show goes live, anonbot takes the text each user
            says and pipes it into "say" using a different unique voice
            styling for each user. Here it would be nice to assign some
            voices to more regular speakers. I'm not sure how many voices
            say has available.
       
         3. Vocal streams are sent up to anonradio's stream via
            liquidsoap or whatever other client can handle it.
       
         4. We all laugh and type silly things at each other for an hour
            and let the robots speak for us.
       
       Now for the challenges:
       
         1. I have no idea how to program an IRC bot. I think I just saw
            a post about it on Lobste.rs though, so I can go fishing for
            that.
       
         2. I don't have an anonradio show. SNOWDUSK, PLAES HALP [1]
       
         3. I barely have any understanding or capability with liquidsoap
            or any other streaming software. It seems like it should be
            trivial to have an empty stream going that just waits to pipe
            in "say" stuff, but I've got no idea where to start. Anyone
            out there know any better?
       
         4. No one talks in #anonradio. Maybe that would change if there
            were a bot that made you sound silly on the internet?

       The challenges aren't insurmountable but I'd welcome help. Hell,
       I'd welcome someone else swooping in and building the whole thing.
       I really just want to participate. ;)
       
       What say you, Gophers? Is this worth making a thing?
