PS5 Demo
You're right, I did miss that! Well spotted.
Maybe you missed it, but they explained it at approximately 1:10:
"There are a billion source triangles that Nanite crunches down losslessly to around 20 million drawn triangles..."
I don't think they are really trying to hide anything.
PS5 Demo
I'm a game graphics coder, going way back to PS2 and Dreamcast. This video overstates things a bit... Somehow, with a little bit of programming, memory is unlimited, bus transfer speeds are infinite, drawing 10,000 triangles onto a single pixel is worthwhile and doesn't result in swim, etc.
The real version of this video would have said that they have new procedural LOD and batching technology that minimizes the content creator's work to get into game at a good frame rate.
Honda S2000 vs BMW M4 Nurburgring - OR just out for a ride.
I've owned 3 S2000s, including a CR. This video is basically my wet dream.

I don't remember my Representative's name, when my next oil change is due, or how many cousins I have...
... but I sang along to the whole damn song.
Cooking on Rough Seas
I sail tall ships, and this is 100% accurate. I think the cook has the hardest job on the ship.

How This Cyclist Hit 184MPH and Set the World Record
Human terminal velocity is around 120mph when falling in breathable altitudes in a belly-down (flat) position. Pulling in your limbs will get you closer to 200mph, which is roughly what a peregrine falcon hits in its dive and in the ballpark of what a .30-06 round in freefall (ie, after being fired straight up) would reach. Professional speed skydivers fly head-down and reach 330mph. The higher you start, the lower air density and thus higher terminal velocity you get. Felix Baumgartner jumped from 128,000 feet and reached 840mph.

Damn, I'm tired.
Raise your hand if watching this made you yawn.

Black Pearl
From Wikipedia:
Spitball some knowledge on me as to why "Better stay out of the Aegean."
Ingenuity
I do not have or want kids and if I ended up with them this is exactly the sort of father I would be.
Vox: Why video games are made of tiny triangles
Yep, the simplest building block to eventually describe any shape.
I wonder how many of us game devs there are on VS?
Amazon Alexa Christmas Choir
While showing this video to my folks, their Alexa started singing along exactly in time with this video.

Swedish Army Band doing...well, you already know.
We called it "drum and bugle corps" when I did it (Santa Clara Vanguard, DCI '98). Basically a military-discipline civilian marching band competition tour across the US.
Patrick Stewart on how he is done playing Professor X
This was so much more moving to watch than I expected.
Full-Scale demonstration of Control Cutting
In situations where ships voluntarily leave an anchor behind, they typically attach a strong line (heavy rope or light chain) to part of it and a buoy. This way they can easily find it and haul up the tail again (or send divers down with a new line).
