- Comment on Why don't subtitles match dubbing? | Tom Scott [8:25] 4 weeks ago:
Based on other videos I’ve seen here the TL;DR
Subs and Closed Captions serve different purposes. The latter is for accessibility/hard of hearing and meant to be a literal transcription of what is said in that language. The former is mostly meant for language translations. To aid in understanding.
Dubs have to roughly match mouth movements because the video is the same for all languages. I know this isn’t true in every instance, but close enough.
Subs are translations from the original language, not from the dubbed audio.

- Comment on Colorado lawmakers debate bill that would ease union formation in the state 2 months ago:
Plus, what incentive do you have to join if you get the benefits without paying? No one would join, the union gets smaller and smaller, then it disappears. I’m sure that’s part of the actual intention.

- Comment on Father faces no charges for fatally shooting British daughter after fight about Donald Trump 2 months ago:
I don’t understand why people don’t get charged in situations like this. Even if it wasn’t on purpose, it was entirely his fault. It’s extremely rare for a gun to go off accidentally.
Charges for extreme recklessness leading to death also seem to be too rare. Not just for guns, but also for cars and other things.
- Comment on sorting of Roman numerals 3 months ago:
But that is what they are talking about. The Roman numbers are out of order. That’s why it’s mildly infuriating. It’s not that what’s happening doesn’t make sense.

Read the Roman numeral numbers.

I don’t think we’ll ever view this interaction in the same light.

And? He didn’t have to get right in front of the car to do that. That’s why I said in another comment that both sides made poor decisions.
- Comment on Nolte: VP Vance Repeatedly Humiliates Fake News During White House Briefing 3 months ago:
Like the agent stepping in front of a vehicle that he knows can be a deadly weapon?
- Comment on Nolte: VP Vance Repeatedly Humiliates Fake News During White House Briefing 3 months ago:
Not really more clearly but it’s definitely a better angle. It does look like the car pushed him. Still, by the time he gets a shot off he’s already been pushed out of the way.
- Comment on Nolte: VP Vance Repeatedly Humiliates Fake News During White House Briefing 3 months ago:
I think you should re-watch the footage and see where his feet are when he shoots. He does shoot through the windshield but he’s already past the hood when he does so. He goes a bit out of his way to shoot through the windshield.
This appears to be when his first shot occurred, based on the sound from the footage. You telling me that’s still in front of the vehicle?
