Jacque Fresco-The Mechanistic Point of View

Hey gang. Got two things to share 'bout this video. http://dotsub.com/view/bc4ea661-c93e-4668-819e-76c1c8557012

00:00:20,371 --> 00:00:24,505
When the fish migrates thousands of miles to the spawning grounds

00:00:24,713 --> 00:00:28,021
as if a mother fish opens up a map of the world

00:00:28,161 --> 00:00:31,272
showing a fish how to get to spawning grounds.


He actually says: "without mother fish opening up a map of the world". But I'm wondering if this was amended for a purpose. The meaning is changed a little, but I don't see a gain from this. (Maybe I miss it?) Both versions are understandable, so we should stick to what Jacque actually says, no?



00:01:08,138 --> 00:01:12,921
"Mechanistic! I'm not a machine. I'm flesh and blood.


I think 'Mechanistic?!' would express the reaction a bit better.

Greetings Squire Lizardman!

All your calls are correct and them some I added, here is the summary of suggested changes:

FROM

8
00:00:24,713 --> 00:00:28,021
as if a mother fish opens up a map of the world

9
00:00:28,161 --> 00:00:31,272
showing a fish how to get to spawning grounds.

Several of my own tweaks follow:

that birds can follow Earth's magnetic current
18
00:00:55,863 --> 00:00:58,636
because if you strap a small magnet to the bird's head
TO


17
00:00:52,986 --> 00:00:55,723
that birds can follow Earth's magnetic currents << currents is plural

18
00:00:55,863 --> 00:00:58,636
because if you strap a small magnet to a bird's head <<< not the bird's head


FROM

23
00:01:13,061 --> 00:01:15,529
I'm thinking, feeling." They loved that
TO

23
00:01:13,061 --> 00:01:15,529

A plant cannot grow, all that nonsense, still exists today.

slipping on ice and then designing anti-slip systems. << singular is correct


That's it! :kewl:

Revised subs have been pushed to the WL and RL. Refer to the attached comparison PDF in the above post.

Languages that have translations as of the time of this revision of the English transcription:
In the Working Location ( http://dotsub.com/view/bc4ea661-c93e-4668-819e-76c1c8557012 ): Albanian[100%] , Arabic[100%] , Bulgarian[100%] , Chinese (Simplified)[100%] , Chinese (Traditional)[100%] , Czech[100%] , Dutch[100%] , English[100%] , French (France)[100%] , German[100%] , Greek[100%] , Italian[100%] , Portuguese (Brazil)[100%] , Portuguese (Portugal)[100%] , Romanian[100%] , Spanish[100%]

In the Repository Location ( http://dotsub.com/view/c6532f5f-3b62-4fb5-aab3-bfc37eb6134c ): Arabic[100%] , Chinese (Simplified)[100%] , Chinese (Traditional)[100%] , English[100%] , French (France)[100%] , Portuguese (Brazil)[100%] , Portuguese (Portugal)[100%] , Romanian[100%] , Spanish[100%]

These languages would need to check their translations to see if they correspond to the revised English original. If changes in the translation are required, then simply apply them in the WL. If your language is in the Repository, you would need to also make a ToDo, so that the translation in the Repository can be replaced with the one in the WL. (Note: these detailed instructions may become outdated in the future. Post in this thread if you are unsure what to do to get your revised translation in the 'official' channels.)
