Where to start……
The forced laughter when someone’s buddy is filmed wiping out - AH hahaha AH hahaha

99.9% of “selfies”, I despise that word. I don’t want to see your pasty bloated pimply mug so close-up like we’re jammed in a fuckin elevator and I can count your nose hairs. Wearing either the blank dumb look people have when looking at their computer screen or camera phone, or the overly gleeful shit-eating ventriloquist dummy look, All it takes is a camera lens to make people go ape-shit, like a baby making faces in a mirror. When did that shit become normal?

Any kind of rambling monologue with the subject weighing in on the stupid shit of the day, like they are some wise head of state being interviewed on some crisis. Or filming themselves narrating at the scene of some non-event, like they are Edward Murrow reporting on the London Blitz.

The vast majority of trend videos, like “Things New Yorkers Say”, etc. They generally have high production values but ZERO talent on the actual writing. The “punchlines” are usually weak or non-existent, apparently there’s no such thing as out-takes anymore. It’s usually weak material followed by long pauses, which I guess if you drag it out long enough it somehow becomes funny. “Modern Family” and “The Office” have beat that non-punchline pause to death. “Spinal Tap” was the only mock-umentary that ever worked, everything else is just weak.

Idiots who edit videos and who don’t have the basic sense to accommodate people who haven’t seen the material. I’m watching a video on YouTube of vacation snaps from someone’s trip to the mountains of Chile, and they leave each photo onscreen for about 1.2 seconds, with the editor’s goal to use every single transition available in the editing palette to move on to the next picture. It’s amateurish.

Someone else mentioned videos with overly long intros\titles and I agree. It's not "Gone With the Wind", it's a video of your dog pissing in your living room, just get to it.

Back in a few, going to pour my second cup of the day. :-)

New Rule – For the Love of Bud

RedSky says...

I think Maher's cheer leading goes a bit overboard. Yes, criminalizing it or even banning it is ridiculous. But fact is, for some people it becomes a bad habit. Any mind altering drug, think alcohol, can be abused to escapism and avoiding problems. We don't know the long term effects of it either so you kind of have to accept you're a test dummy if you use it.

Epigenetics: Why Inheritance Is Weirder Than We Thought

Eukelek says...

Exactly! the implications are huge in the understanding of evolution and even society, since say, the selfish gene in humans/red hair/disease/etc can be triggered or turned off, or say that there is an extra feedback mechanism in males´offspring! It could explain the enormously fast adaptability in the evolution of species and the programmed role of males in society and their EXPERIENCES/fears/emotions! Sperm production (gametogenesis) is constant in males, and nature is no dummy; one could hypothesize nature finds feedback mechanisms into genetics to compete and gain advantage with other males, even for future generations (?). This should have huge implications if the proper research is continued and these very interesting hypotheses and other´s are seriously questioned.

The Linguistics of African American Vernacular English

RFlagg says...

Yeah, I for one could really use an IPA for dummies or ELI5 of IPA... EDIT: The one's I've seen are still too complex, I need a better simplified one... lol.

I recommend just listening to the audio, it had some interesting points. But like many informational videos this one is edited with that standard infantile overuse of graphics, edits and effects.

Also am I the only one on the planet who doesn't understand usage of aɪər, ʉ, ð and sometimes ʊ? Wikipedia uses those IPA symbols like they are supposed to be helpful but they're Greek to me.

That is why you wear water wings dummy.

The worst is when the breath you're holding in your lungs is running out and after being tossed around you struggle to swim up for air but then realize you're actually swimming downward.

I knew I was about to drown, but I refused to give in and was lucky enough to get my mouth up and out for a quick breath before getting flung back down.

Nixie: Wearable Camera That Can Fly

newtboy says...

These competitions never give out cash prizes for theory, they only pay off for actual working prototypes. Otherwise SpaceX would be a movie, as would Deepflight and whatever they called the solar plane...along with dozens of other technologies that have come from these competitions. They just don't pay off on these competitions unless you can PROVE you solved the problems (known AND unknown) and MADE at least one prototype that works.
Intel is no dummy. They know full well you can use their own product to create a video showing anything you wish, so they would NOT be 'conned' out of $500000 with a video. That's a silly thing to say.
I'll come back and tell you that you seem to be wrong today. :-)

EDIT: Don't get me wrong, you may be right it will take 5 years to make them cheap and durable enough to sell them.

No I'm not. They won a competition based off of a video they did. I have not seen anything from them that shows them doing what they present in the video.
Congratulations they conned Intel out of $500K. You can come back and tell me I was wrong when it is available for sale and shipping and is in a similar form to what they presented. Talk to you in 5+ years.

Six Hours of Simulated Airplane Travel

yellowc says...

I thought it was just going to be dummies sitting there to test turbulence or something and they just happen to have made them look creepy.

But this is 6hrs of those dummies actually talking and doing things. Even creepier
