#Subtitles

[soothingwitchygirlie]

YES!!!! THIS IS WHAT IVE BEEN SAYING🥳🥳🥳

Reasons I like subtitles:

1. I can see how people’s names and the cities and the countries are spelled.

2. I don’t miss any words, so everything they say makes sense.

3. I get to know what background noises and conversations are.

4. The descriptions of the noises people make are freaking awesome. Ex: splutter, grunt, chuckles.

5. I can see who says what.

6. I don’t have to have the volume super loud so I can hear the dialogue, and I don’t blow my eardrums out because the ambient noises and music is SO FREAKING LOUD.

I freaking love subtitles.

Shoutout to @theabigailthorn, for whom the subtitles are basically another whole layer of information and flavour in her videos.

Both of these are from:

It's just such a classy move.

Tbh im all up for accessibility, but I actually need clean subtitles free from curse words cuz there are some youtubers im uncomfortable with hearing those words from them, and if a video has them potentially cursing i'd just put them on mute & read the subtitles, so i don't get pissed off & violent. It keeps my trauma at bay.

just started watching grians hermitcraft (permit office propaganda got to me) and just. his subtitles??

It isnt the crappy auto-generated ones that barely function

he always includes whos talking with [REN] or [GRIAN] or similar in front of the diaglouge which is great

ITS COLOR CODED. along with that identification, he also assigns the members of a conversation a color and colors all of their dialouge with that. grian gets white bc hes the main character

this is so thoughtful and i love it!!! thank you grian

“I can now say with absolute confidence that many AI systems have been trained on TV and film writers’ work. Not just on The Godfather and Alf, but on more than 53,000 other movies and 85,000 other TV episodes: Dialogue from all of it is included in an AI-training data set that has been used by Apple, Anthropic, Meta, Nvidia, Salesforce, Bloomberg, and other companies. I recently downloaded this data set, which I saw referenced in papers about the development of various large language models (or LLMs). It includes writing from every film nominated for Best Picture from 1950 to 2016, at least 616 episodes of The Simpsons, 170 episodes of Seinfeld, 45 episodes of Twin Peaks, and every episode of The Wire, The Sopranos, and Breaking Bad.”

This bit from Jaiden's Miku video reminds me of an old conversation (and a funny / sweet moment) she had with Roier and Mariana on QSMP.
