If a group of 4 volunteers wanted to tack back the local public radio station- dump NPR and just play local voices+ .... and all federal funds were cut, could it stay on the air without a glitch? Sure you won't have the professional news.... that obfuscates and buries the real stories everyday... who cares if your local news reports aren't polished, at least the people will hear the truth. **
Sure, each volunteer take a 6 hour dj shift seven days a week. :lol:
With these scripts and linux box you can dj at your leisure from home- live djs all day long and turn it over to automation/remote nights/weekends. You can buy fancy software to run it better, but if the budget is tight, the price here of $0 is just right.
These scripts just simplify finding and queue-ing songs, and add options to play random The People Speak clips from a folder
A starter collection of several hundred We the People clips is here archive.org/details/radioClips.tar
Put the tar.gz file in an empty folder
gunzip radioClips.tar.gz
tar -xf radioClips tar
It contains 4 folders, zz, zk, znews, zcomedy -put these in your mpd /music folder
The bash scripts are explained in the readme file- it's not complicated, I just explained it with lots of words.
** Why public radio matters
Example: Alaska's Permanent Fund is at $80 Billion, Norway's Fund started 20 years later and it's worth $2000 Billion
Alaska tv and radio stations have kept this fact (and obscene looting) hidden for decades.
On the national level... the national debt has doubled since Trump 1.0 tax cuts... and the Dems are mute. These clips are included in the radioClips sound bites... it's almost 500 files, 770mb so don't download it on your phone (;
------
Now you don't need to take back a radio station, you might just load up the WeThePeople clips and mix them in with your regular playlist at work :)
But if you are interested in freedom and creating the mass awareness the world needs.... all you need is a tech savvy person and an old computer. Could be a teenager that fixes your frozen computer, or an old guy that used windows Device Manager.
I have an old 2011 Dell Optiplex w/ 4gb ram, running ubuntu 18 playing music 24/7
ps- there's an "we interrupt this program for this special report" shortcut... cut off a song you don't like and play a [funny] truth clip.
