Some teensy old woman with a bat that knows the layout of the inside of the place like the back of her hand.....
FwwAAPP! FlooOOMP!

OK, OK... I know I'm talking to a person who can't see a kid's head hit the ground in a video where a kid's head clearly hits the ground but please do me one favor:

Look at the park layout from google maps that Eric posted above. Really zoom in and get a good look. What I see is a skate park on the left with some soccer fields further on and a parking lot on the right. In between, there's a narrow pathway leading from one part of the park to the other. That's why we see all those people walking through there in the video. They're not walking through the skate park, they're walking along a path.

Now, by your rational, this guy is allowed to skate wherever he wants in this park with no responsibility for running into anyone who happens to be walking through(since a toddler runs at about a normal person's walking speed, maybe a little faster). So I'm curious, where do you draw the line? Is this guy literally allowed to rail slide up the play equipment? Slalom between the swings? I really want to know where you think the line is. Are you really saying that the only path from one end of this overall park to the other runs right through the skate park portion of it? And everybody that walks through is supposed to expect skaters that aren't watching where they're going?

I only get so specific because a skateboard is a vehicle. You can ride one in many public places and I'm all for that but you bear a responsibility for hitting someone just like you would on a bike or in a car.

And I wasn't saying that the kid was running towards the picnic tables. I was saying that the skater was heading toward them, which it seems you agree with since you said the kid was running away from them. (BTW: Where do you get the idea that this kid "barrels out from behind an object?" What object?)

What it looks like to me is that this kid and his mom were coming from the north end, maybe the kid gets excited running to the play equipment on the south end when a guy, skating down the middle of the only path through the park, runs right fucking into him with a skateboard.

And the first reaction everyone has is to blame the kid and his mom? For running down a path through a park?

Here is the layout of the park on google maps

I did an ISDUPE on my own copy of this previously dead video
also *backup=[...snipped...]

I went to the website bobknight. Where's the layout of ideas or topics that Republicans are supporting? I mean there's just a couple of videos and a request for money and my email. What gives?

Traditionally there are separate channels (left right center etc) and if you want to make a sound come from above and slightly left an audio engineer would put a little in the left, a little in the center and maybe a small amount in reverse phase in the rear speaker. This worked but theaters have different sizes and layouts so it was never perfect.

Atmos takes a totally different approach. it can have 30-200 channels (iirc). Each speaker is on its own monitored channel and it is specifically tuned for that room. The ATMOS processor decides the exact amount of sound to each speaker on the fly from the "3d soundtrack." When making the movie the sound field is represented as a half sphere and the audio engineer places sounds around this.

What it means is that the theater shape/size/number of speakers and other factors add/subtract nothing from the experience. Not only that but each speaker is monitored for health so it can compensate and alert staff.

The important part is that with so many speakers being able to be addressed independently sounds can transition around the room completely smooth. If you had your eyes closed a helicopter circling your head and landing will transition around naturally.

There aren't many theaters that have it yet since they have to tear up the ceiling to add so many speakers (its usually every other ceiling tile front to back in two columns!). In the San Francisco Bay Area there are only three specific theater room that have it - One on the top floor of AMC Van Ness SF, One at the AMC Metreon SF and one at the Century theater in Fremont.

Can you imagine if two related videos were positioned on both sides of the main submission? It really is about layout and design choices because sometimes I'm sure it throws up useful videos.

But the more tenuously related links might deter people from considering them.

It's now 5 years ago. I'm just curious, which layout do you use know (and why) ?

... no.. those are not. Those are window AC units, and were installed well after the building was first designed.

Also it is just much easier material wise to base the glass layout on one end of the room on a patio door and window set, rather then large sectioned window pieces where some of them slide open.

My suggestion would be to ditch the three thumbnail layout that is currently there, and display a standard video layout (thumb, title, desc etc), but one that stands out more. Perhaps the thin white border around the thumbs could encapsulate the title and desc too? This would display the most recent promoted item. below this it could display a row of mini thumbs for other currently promoted vids. clicking one would replace the shown big vid above.... Perhaps they could cycle automatically if the user hasn't interacted with the promoted video box yet?

On chrome, the bottom part of the comments on any given video page are hidden below the bottom bar. This makes it impossible to reply. Maximizing and un-maximizing the window fixes the layout.

So. Are we all done pretending we just loooooove the new layout?

Is there any way to make the text even smaller and make the text color even more like the background? That way, I can REALLY struggle to read it. That would be kewl!

Wide page layout is gone?

After listening to @eric3579 "bitch and moan" all day, I have a proposal for another fix:
Making the responsive part of the site optional.

Some users like having the same layout on desktop and mobile, because they're old farts, and prefer zooming over scrolling.

I looked through the css to make eric a tiny script he could run to disable it, but I can't disable the mediaqueries, because they are bundled in the different css files.

So here is another quick option

Or moving all the mediaqueries into a separate file, and not loading that on demand;
i.e. http://videosift.com/?mediaqueries=0

Love the new layout...much cleaner and "crisp". Maybe it's just me but the page load time seems a lot faster. Overall....very impressive!
