yeah, something seems... "off".
My guess is it was staged.
like why didn't the person filming it just stay with her on that corner?
or the chances of 3 babies all being asleep and not crying while being hauled around in the Nevada afternoon or being put into minivan?
Also (@2:44) that car seat didn't have the seat belt going *over* the seat (obviously she didn't have a seat-base with her, and the "samaritan" wouldn't have had a matching base) so the only way to belt an infant car seat is to go up over the baby's legs (the seat has notches for that purpose)

So maybe a better video title would be "Aspiring Actress with 3 Car Seats Helps YouTuber Harvest Likes and Views"

This makes me want to go back and play HL2 Episodes 1 & 2. I know I bought them, but don't remember ever finishing them. HL2 was so technically impressive. Portal 2 was also great, especially the co-op multiplayer. Alyx is a good VR title- it's close to a "killer app" for VR, but not quite there. 1 of the few VR titles compelling enough to keep headset on for more than 1 hour.

Not half-life related, but "old but cool" PC tech from that era: I had a DVD/MPEG2 decoder card that did VGA passthrough, and would replace black pixels with the movie content - so I could watch the Matrix in the background of playing Quake or other FPS (this was a dual PIII-450Mhz). I later installed an ATSC tuner card - one of the first channels that broadcast in HD was Fox, and one of my favorite shows, 24, started to broadcast in HD - and the early days all the makeup artists took advantage of low-res, so as soon as the show went to HD, you could see how fake all the blood, makeup, and other effects were. Hollywood ramped up quickly once the first HDTVs started shipping.
That computer also ran BeOS quite well.

this is fine when the rope is short (as shown) but if it were any reasonable length it would be a PITA to pull the whole rope through the loop twice.

TIL a new word - vainglorious

Piers is kinda douchey as usual, but Jay is great. They talk about pretty much everything old and recent.

this guy is the next Steven Wright. great stuff.

soccer. FIFAs asian branch- each country participating has an animal mascot, but the CGI promo is beyond my comprehension...

(not sure why it posted twice, removing the -1 version here)

At first I thought it was filmed by a skier as well, but once they got the bigger jumps I assumed it was actually a drone. Or just clever editing between multiple shots and not a single continuous shot. Either way, impressive result.

chorus kinda reminds me of an acoustic version of that Russian meme song Chum Drum Bedrum

IANAL but I think internal prototype names can be anything - it's only if they bring it to market that there could be some chance of consumer "confusion".
I'm still waiting to see the lawsuit from Microsoft, who has owned the "X" trademark for many years.
Also, Elon has been promising such a robot for years - at least it's not a human in a robot costume this time... but could easily be CG. I'll believe it when I see some 3rd party people putting it through its paces. (yes, I was skeptical of the Boston Dynamics videos as well until they let others in to film)
