Interesting New Time "Waster"

Screen capture from the video
I recently stumbled across a new channel on YouTube, Sector White. Their focus seems to be on Finnish participation in World War II and, I hope, Finland's own war with the Soviet Union. The video I've posted below isn't bad. Much better than a lot of the crappy AI I've seen elsewhere lately.

I guess if you really work at it, you can make some pretty amazing stuff with AI.

Either that or this channel has somehow managed to time travel back to Finland during WWII!

Enjoy!



Yes, I am still being lazy ...

Hey, I'm retired, and loving it!

      Sarge, I think "sleep" is what happens when you are reading, you know that you are reading, but when you look at the clock you see that an hour or two has passed but you are still on the same page.

    Not lazy, Retired! Big Difference. If your wife is anything like mine, she'll find "things" for you to do. But, you'll find time for the things you like to do.

    You, sir, are a bad influence on the (unfortunately) still employed. Because of course I need one more thing to fill my time...

    Honestly, some of the AI related things are not slop. And it enables some historical events to come to life (in a way) that they never would be able to (for example, no production company is likely to fund a series on the Winter War. We were lucky to get Sisu.).

      If you can find it (Roku maybe) The Unknown Soldier is a good film about the Continuation War (what the Finns called WWII) from the Finnish perspective. It's very good. There's one specifically about the winter war in 1939/40 called Talvisota which I haven't tracked down yet. And we were lucky to get Sisu!

      Snowing here as well, a very slushy day as the temperature hovers around freezing.
