- Comment on Why do Pokémon have different names in ENG? 1 week ago:
It’s far from uncommon for names to be localised, especially for children’s media. Speaking names, pokemon names being prime examples, don’t work if you don’t speak the language they originate in. So if you want to achieve the effect in the translation, you have to find an appropriate word in the target language to convey the meaning.
- Comment on How do i sync subtitles while watching movies? 2 weeks ago:
Subtitles are glorified text files, each line has a timestamp, like
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:38,080 Exterminate! Exterminate!
This tells the player to display the line from 7 minutes, 34 seconds, 480 milliseconds until 7 minutes, 38 seconds, 80 milliseconds.
If you want the subtitles to be earlier, you’re subtracting from those times so it’s minus, if you want them to be later, you’re adding so it’s plus.

I get that but I wouldn’t know any such way. There are dedicated subtitle tools that can sync audio and text but those need the files. Failing that you can only do it by ear.
If the subtitle file was downloaded from opensubtitles automatically, there’s also the very real possibility that it’s the wrong file. It might be the correct movie but the subtitles might be synced to a different framerate and there’d be no way for you to know.

Oh so you don’t actually have access to the files themselves. That’s unfortunate. Then I fear you’re at the mercy of whoever wrote that browser plugin.

What’s your setup? Where are you watching, what format are the subtitles?

In fact, my hypothesis (it’s mine, you can’t have it) is that the Roman empire fell due to everybody being constantly distressed and distracted because they kept losing their fidget dodecahedrons all over Europe.

No, that is English being hard to parse. “Shake to (apply the action) 'ai summarise” (to the) help text".

I feel confident in assuming that there are other places that move at comparable speed where laughter and electromagnetic radiation from a central luminary exist. Blueberries are pretty good though.
