It's even worse on YouTube (and probably TikTok). Have read that people think the vocal speech is a bit monotone (and mispronunciations or incorrect words). I can tell a little with the flat tone sometimes. Captions show the mispronounced/wrong words. Just..artificial all around.

Image with two sections. Top half is black text on light yellow background. A small image of a ladybug in upper right corner. Text says "The Ladybird Book of AI. A Ladybird expert book.
Bottom half black background  and white text. There is a small flow chart- first a round oval with text Do I need AI? inside it. Down arrow below oval to a square box with text No inside it.

Ahh yes Ocean City NJ. We used to go there every summer (after swim season was over usually). Still remember the street name and what the house looked like (grandparents' "shore house". Sadly house is no more ๐Ÿ˜ญ. What I would give for one more trip/summer there....

I vaguely remember these (1987-1989 were not great years for me) but don't think I ever tried one :(.

Oh not touching the bacon/egg/cheese one either. Would go for sausage over bacon if I had to!

I will pick cheese burger, maybe chicken sandwich (and add my own cheese) and steak biscuit (ditto cheese). That's all I could see/read honestly. (terrible vision). Not touching the sausage/egg... Egg, cheese and Taylor Pork roll on an English muffin thank you, yum miss it.

2/ The other is Starfleet Academy S1E2. Betazed delegation arrives to Earth & the academy, reaching out to rejoin the Federation. Pres. Sadal is deaf and uses sign language (Betazed sign? ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ). Tarima in a fit of anger lost control of her power & accidentally destroyed his auditory cortex.

To add, there are two deaf related- STBG"Loud as a Whisper S2E5 Enterprise transports a renowned Deaf negotiator to a planet to assist in peace talks. Riva uses sign language (with the Chorus as his interpreters ). 1/

Oooh sounds yummy. Next time I visit my friend in WA will have to ask (if I remember). First time I visited I tried Ivan's white clam chowder (missed the ferry back to Poulsbo so had to wait lol).

'Garbage Salad' when someone was talking about the food ('please pass the...") .." What now?" It's a family thing lol.
Fun fact I 'm the only one in the family who won't eat it... I dislike Jell-O... barely tolerate orange flavor.

--CONT'ed-- is... I forget the jello flavor but beets go there, next is lime jello and well anything you can throw in there...carrots, lettuce, veggies mostly. Stick it in fridge, then turn over..plop on plate(beets on top). Serves with sour cream. We had a guest one year, she heard ...--Next--

I can't exactly say what a garbage plate is, but you reminded me of a dish my family likes to call "garbage salad"- started with my grandmother, Mom made it now sis does. It's a gelatin (think Jell-O) mold started out with a round cake pan now individual cups or whatever. In the bottom half_--TBC---

And boo to the usual awful captions and no visuals on the Puerto Rican sign interpreter. Read that ASL interpreter was shown for like 4 seconds ๐Ÿ‘Ž.

I only caught the end of the first half onwards. Very few commericals captioned. Agree with the rest of what you said.
If the whiners want to see the half time show 'subtitled' they can watch it on YouTube with autocaptions as YT translates Spanish to English (very very poorly).

ASL interpretations? I missed the first half so didn't see the Star Spangled Banner until later on YouTube. I never even saw the Puerto Rico Sign language at all and couldn't find it on you tube (ironically YouTube auto captions translated the Spanish tho I don't think that well...?).

It's been largely a positive experience here on Blue sky minus the occasional blocking of annoying accounts (the for funsies one was blocking the VP...last I saw he has the #1 spot of most blocked).

Hmm makes me wonder if I should delete my Twitter (it's currently set to private so nobody can steal my user name for evil). Facebook I know looks bad but a) a lot of people I met on the old AOL boards are there and b) I use a tool that blocks out a lot of the extra junk FB added over the yrs.

Only caught half the super bowl (didn't know it started at 6:30 my time) but yup quite a few were not captioned. Captions were messed up in some parts of the game: halftime show was near perfect (I think, don't know Spanish well enough despite 2 years Spanish class at Gallaudet).

Whew back to normal! A few ads aren't captioned... ๐Ÿค”

Is it just me? The captions are gibberish now. I missed the first half, saw the halftime show (great captions there..).

Rather than sullying the harbor and river (and ocean) , throw it all on a giant bonfire.
