  • I agree that this is a really important job. The wife and I usually enable subtitles on English content (our first language) any time accents are involved. Watched Shakespeare & Hathaway on BritBox recently and the English subs were glorious. They used a different background color for each character which I found extremely helpful, and the accuracy was quite good.

    Sadly this is not universally true for Britbox content. Hartnell-era Doctor Who seems to be based on the scripts as it occasionally deviates significantly from the lines as delivered.

    Father Brown is sort of middling and appears to be auto-generated in that the subs are mostly right but any errors are obviously homophonic and would have been caught with human review.

  • I guess "abide" (to bear patiently) and "endure" (to remain firm under suffering or misfortune without yielding) would both work, though neither has an inherent notion of time.

  • Patience. I think I just no longer have the energy to get that uptight about things. Benefits of being a quinquagenarian, it would seem. It should come with some damn benefits other than back and joint pain.

  • Breakfast bars. They're not just for breakfast!

    I'm also partial to chips & salsa.

  • Margot was so awesome. Really loved that show.

    Edit: Well, I loved the first three seasons, anyway. 😑

  • Came here to say Believe. Fucking Auto-Tune.

  • I think it's fine if Microsoft has their own nuclear power plant as long as every Microsoft corporate officer is required to live downwind of it. ✌🏻

  • You're right, of course. It's kind of a can of worms, though.

  • Best friend from high school cut me loose after my divorce. We haven't had any contact in 20+ years. Not long ago I randomly ran across an obit where his mom died. Considered sending something to his dad since his folks were always nice to me. Probably should have done but I wussed out. Hope his dad is doing ok. Feels bad, man.

  • The greatest lie ever told is "pull here to open".
