 So the other day, I posted a video and in the first 12 hours, it got 12 dislikes averaging one dislike an hour and that number's steadily increased, it's at 19 now so it's slowed down growing a little bit but I just don't understand why people don't like it. Just over a year ago I did a whole bunch of videos that were like secret message videos which people seem to be like, seem to like and this is kind of like an intro video to the series you've just been watching in which I was planning on going over this at the end of the series but I'm stopping the series right here in the middle to go over this just because it got so many dislikes and that video was the voicemail message 2017 in which I, it's a video that just, you know, has a phone number that you can call and there is a message you can listen to and you can also leave a message if you want and I'm not really sure why people dislike that video. I get, if you don't get, understand the video but just because you don't understand the video doesn't mean you should dislike the video but let me address, you know, a few of the concerns so and I knew posting this video I was going to get one of these comments, you know, what about international viewers and because I once before posted a number that you guys call leave me voicemail as well it's people like oh no one's going to spend international rates to call this number which I don't expect you to it's 2017 have you guys heard of the internet it's also known as the worldwide web you can connect to anything anywhere in the world through this you know unless you live in a country that restricts connections but real quick here let's just use Google so the specific comment this time around was someone from the UK so let's go ahead and from America I'm gonna try to call the UK for free call England for free online oh would you look at that there's a whole bunch of things on the web to tell me how to do this now I'm not promoting any of these sites I'm just picking there's a bunch of them here I'm gonna click on this first one here and I'm gonna go ahead and see what comes up it looks like a cell phone now I'm poking fun here a little bit but there's multiple ways to call around the world for free a lot of there's a lot of service out there they may only give you a couple of minutes but that's all you need so I'm gonna try this one out but other ways I've done this I know a couple years ago I've tried this and there are actually numbers that you can call you put in where you live they give you a local number you can call that then will connect you to another country so you call a local number and they connect you over this way is great because I don't need to call them and have my phone number show up on their system so let's go ahead and give this try but first I need to find some place in the UK that I can call and since I don't really know anybody over there Google Maps stop Google look there it is England UK let's go ahead and just zoom into London here click somewhere on the map so it's selected and then over here I'm gonna do nearby restaurants we're gonna call a restaurant so I'm just gonna pick one of these at random look at that they have a phone number and they're open now let's give them a call put number in click this green button up and let's wait 30 seconds thumb twiddling time to one zero oh it wants to use my microphone allow I'm giving up on this number no answer let's pick another place at random okay another another restaurant another restaurant I'm sorry I got the wrong number okay so somebody answered that time they did have a British accent so I'm assuming that it works so let's go ahead and play with this a little bit more same website let's try Tokyo Japan okay let's sound like a recording but it did sound like Japanese to me so it seems to be working now this website only gives you two minutes of a phone call but I think they limit the calls let's try a third call and actually call the number I gave in that video oh I've reached my limit for the day time to move on to the next one in the Google list another website that looks like a cell phone let's go ahead and put that number in international code 1 941 7774885 wants to use my microphone allow it's ringing I stopped it there because I don't want to give you the full message you're gonna actually have to call this number to get that message now the next complaint that I saw was that doing this over a phone is not going to be clear enough to actually transcode the message that I am sending give here dial up pretty much what this is right so we're using mini modem in this if you heard that in the text or have been watching this series and we're doing at a rate of 110 so how can we get a clear enough signal to record this now already the quality is pretty low because the way I created this was I use mini modem to create the message and they save it to a wave file and then I was going to use a voicemail service that allowed me to upload an mp3 so then I converted it to an mp3 went to upload it and I was like you know what I'm not familiar with this service and I would hate for it to not work and you guys call it not work let me use a service that I know works so then I just created a Google account and created a Google voice account they don't let you upload a message the way you create your greeting messages they call your phone and you talk into the thing so I took the mp3 which I should have used the wave file but I don't think it made too much of a difference I put that on my phone I called from a landline when it said state your message after the beat I press play on the mp3 and held it to the phone so you'll hear at the beginning of the message me actually you can actually hear the phones clicking together but the message is clear enough because of course I tested this before I shared it with you guys but how do you get so we've already degraded the sound and you don't want to grade it anymore so recording off the phone may not be your best option so how can we get it to where we can easily put this into mini modem I'm already using my computer why didn't I just a week ago do a video on using pulse audio to record the output from your computer and yeah you can do that from shell because do it easily from the GUI interface so let's go ahead and hook this up and after that the only thing we have to worry about is making sure our volume isn't too loud or too low that it distorts the sound so let's give that a try mini modem receiving at 110 and turn you let that start and now we'll open up pulse audios volume control manager under recording you can see mini modem here you notice the volumes are we going and that's because it sets a record for my USB microphone that's not what we want I'm gonna click on this and I'm gonna choose the my monitoring output so I'm gonna go ahead and select that and now it should be recording any audio that is coming out of my speakers back at this telephone website gonna make a call it's ringing well it took me three tries to get my volume right it seems lower the volume the better you don't want it too loud now every time I've tested this in the past my particular message the HTTP the colon forward slash forward slash has never come through properly right there and that just might be my recording and the fact that I was holding it to a phone but the rest of the address is readable you can see it's a tiny URL and I'm cutting this off but the the address comes through clearly here so obviously if you see tiny URL and forward slash and the rest that's the address I purposely didn't show you the full address here because I want you guys to give this a try yourself but also let you know that was just it was a special bonus for people who got it which I'm not sure if anybody did it brought you to an early access to the current series we're doing which you've actually watched all the videos that were in that file array they're already up on YouTube so feel free to give this a try see if you can get working it was just for fun no need to dislike the video guys you hurt me you really did but no it was just for fun I didn't mean to aggravate people which I guess I may have but and this video was spoken from but there there there is always a way now the the service I'm using maybe they're not available in your country so VPNs are for another thing is okay maybe and I don't know because I'm I can't go to another country to call myself right now but maybe maybe the signal if you're calling from another country is degraded enough that you can't get a clear signal in which case I apologize I did the best I could but there's no need to to pay international fees to call that number there's at least three or four websites just like the one I showed you that each give you two or three calls of two minutes each a day so you can call anywhere in the world around the world so keep this in mind because maybe I'll do this again in the future I do have that Google voice account now as long as I log in every every couple of months and it should stay active feel free to call that number and leave me a message if you'd like I'll try to remember to check it occasionally that's it again sorry that you guys didn't like that video it was just a phone number and I hope you're enjoying this series we have more videos coming up thank you for watching as always I hope that you have a great day on last but not least before you leave these sites click this a little icon here and block the microphone because you gave them access to your microphone yeah they shouldn't be able to access it unless you're at their your at their domain but it's good practice to disable that afterwards thanks for watching and you want maybe I'm completely off maybe it isn't the phone number the the international calling the message you guys don't like maybe you just didn't like the music in that video it is a song I wrote specifically just to throw in the background of that video looking at the the numbers of views on my channel for the music I create which I do have a whole channel of just music I created my music isn't too well like so if that's it I apologize for hurting your ears
