The AI narration was off-putting, but the video footage was cool.

That is not AI. The same voice narrates at least two years ago. Just scroll down in the channel's video list.

The description of the video states it is in fact AI:

> A synthesized text-to-video voiceover was used in the narration for this story.


Where does it say that? I can’t see it in the video description.

The second line. The video description for me says the following:

"HAWAIʻI VOLCANOES NATIONAL PARK - An incredible sight at the summit of Kilauea volcano on Saturday morning, as Episode 38 erupted enormous lava fountains across the caldera, destroying one of the webcams that was live streaming the event.

All images and video are courtesy the U.S. Geological Survey. A synthesized text-to-video voiceover was used in the narration for this story."


Well it would've been better if they kept the video on the actual camera that ate it instead of switching back and forth constantly. It's not Liam Neeson climbing a fence, guys.

The dependency has just come out of the oven, so it's too hot and must cool down ;)


I addressed this though lol. Nobody says "my pie is on cooldown."


I would say that's the job of a CTO


The MacBook Pro has had a 120 Hz screen for nearly half a decade. And of course, external displays can support whatever resolution/refresh rate, regardless of the OS driving them.


Actually this Reddit post predates that "original source" by several hours: https://old.reddit.com/r/apple/comments/1ntc1gt/the_fcc_has_...


Not connector related, but I can't tell you how many people use time zones like PST year-round. The ST stands for "standard time," meaning not Daylight Saving Time. Right now, PDT would be appropriate.

The thing that kills me is that they could just say "PT" or "Pacific time" and be right, with less effort.

I always know what they mean, but it's wrong for more than half the year.


Does narcissist rhyme with arsonist? ("Narsonist")


I believe that's the point being made by the comment you're replying to


I think a negative video is a requirement that you upload one before you may continue


"Please turn on your webcam for 10 seconds and spin around to prove you're human (i.e. help train our models), to continue."


> There are no bans on books discussing such matters.

contradicts

> Public schools may ban books


Not the same. Public schools (and private schools, and any library) choose which books are on their library shelves. They have no control over what is published elsewhere.


You are right. Edited in order to better express myself. Apologies; English is not my first language...
