I watch everything at least 1.25 speed depending on the show. Most YT at 1.5 speed. Once you start you can't go back to 1x. Everyone talks so slowly.

At one point I got tired and went back to 1×

We have time in life

What do you do in real life.

They're clearly moving too fast to answer

Kepion over here wakes up just to reply to comments.

[-] Kepion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago

It's as good an excuse as any to wake up at all

Actors traditionally talk slower on film than people IRL. So I am simply bringing them up to normal speed. Watch Star Trek at 1.5x and normalise Captain Kirk's dialogue...

I'm up to 2x on anything that isn't already pretty fast to begin with. 1x is exclusively for music content.

I tried that and felt I had to concentrate too hard. So I like to keep it around 1.5x. 2001 Space odyssey, I watched at 3x and it still felt slow.

Did something similar to this with one of those “speed up silence” plugins. It was hard to notice cuz dialog was still 1x…

I can believe it. Done that with YouTube videos before. Since English is not my first language, I just thought my English comprehension was just off that day.

"Damn, these Americans speak too fast", until I noticed.
