I don't get all these "geo-engineering" magic bullets. Capitalists are taking carbon out of the ground and putting it into the air and oceans.

Leave the carbon in the ground, where it belongs. Simple as

I loathe youtube's auto-dubbing feature (slrpnk.net)
 

As I'm sure most of my multi-lingual peers feel, I hate youtube's recent addition of automatic AI dubbing on certain videos. It's enabled for some videos that are in a language different from your youtube account's setting.

At least give me the option to opt out of it. There's nothing more annoying than having to wait for a video to load, only to have to restart it back in its original language as soon as I realize the dubbing is active.
