Waching daily Jun 16 2017

This video is part two of an exploration on why Sony's Betamax video recording format

lost to the more ubiquitous VHS.

We were comparing these two machines, and we saw how Sony had introduced BetaScan, but

they had overlooked something.

Here comes a link to get to part one.

We left off with me saying that this machine falls flat on its face.

What's most important to consumers is

the machine's flexibility at recording shows.

And here's where the Sony machine falls flat on its face.

See, that's where we left off.

Now,

In addition to spending time and resources making new features that the buyer didn't

know they needed, Sony also seemed to just keep flailing their arms about and making

stupid decisions about other basic necessities, and it shows in this model.

Initially, they thought things like timers were silly features to include in their machines.

As Marc Wielage and Rod Woodcock recall in their piece The Rise and Fall of Beta, one

Sony executive, when asked why his machines didn't include a timer when the competition

did, explained that "Having separate timer allows the consumer to use it for other purposes.

And not everyone needs timer.

We do not force you to buy one."

Yeah, no.

While it sounds noble, the whole damn point of a VCR is to time-shift, recording things

when you're gone.

That's not possible without a timer.

So selling it as an add-on is only going to piss people off and look like a money-grab.

Great job, guys.

While they did come around and include a timer in most of the models, the timer wasn't

nearly advanced as what the competition offered.

The Sony unit has a 3 day, 1 event timer.

Take a look, programming is pretty simple, you just hold down the program button and pick

a time.

Then you select what day, either today--tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow.

And lastly you choose how long you want it to record for.

Once you've punched that in, you select the channel you want it to record, hold down

the record button, and move the power switch to timer.

Not too difficult, but also not too impressive.

Let's hope you're not gone longer than just a weekend.

And let's hope there's only one program you want to record.

The RCA model, meanwhile, has a 4 event, 7 day timer.

And it's actually less frustrating to program, as you don't have to hold a button down

while making adjustments at the same time.

Turn the selector from manual to program, then select which program, a, b, c, or d,

you want to input.

First, you pick the day.

0 is today, 1 tomorrow, 2 the day after tomorrow, etc.

I'll admit, that's not as easy to work out as Sony's in-your-face wording.

But it's way more capable--Also, A means it will record every day.

That means one program can actually create multiple daily recordings, which is pretty

neat.

This lever switches between the start time, and how long you want it to record.

So, say I want to start at 4 PM, and record for an hour and a half.

Set the time to 4, turn this to select the length, and then 1 hour thirty minutes.

This is more versatile than the Sony, as you might want it to start recording a minute

before your show starts and stop a minute afterwards to make sure nothing is missed.

You're not limited to thirty minute increments like here on the Sony.

But the most important way this machine kicks the pants off the Sony is here.

Notice how the channel is flashing.

It wants you to select it.

That's right, the RCA machine will change channels for you.

So, the Sony has BetaScan, but the RCA can record for 6 hours, on 4 different programs

over a week, and even change channels for you.

Which one would you buy?

Sony just didn't seem to get it.

They released this device with virtually no regard to how their buyers would actually

use it.

The reason people flocked to recording time wasn't simply that they wanted the machine

to be able to record a very long program like a football game, it was also that they wanted

it to be able to record a lot of different programs.

A six hour recording time means 3 one hour shows and an entire weekday lineup of half-hour

daily programming could be recorded on a single tape with room to spare.

But to do that automatically, you need a timer that can start more than just one recording.

So while Sony caved and produced the Beta 3 speed, it was rather obtuse to not also

add a complicated timer that can manage more than one program.

Now to be fair, this RCA machine was probably a little more expensive than the Sony.

Poking around online shows that the Sony retailed for, are you sitting down?

One thousand 2 hundred fifty dollars, eek, and although I don't have a firm price for

the RCA model, this price chart from Popular Mechanics shows the Panasonic PV-1600, probably

the exact same machine internally as this one given its features, at $1295.

But, this is for the absolute whiz-bang most complicated VCR on the market.

As their ads proclaimed, nobody gives you more VCR than RCA.

But what about lesser-models?

Remember, I said that jumbled mess of how this machine came to be made was important.

That's because JVC was super-OK with other companies paying them a licensing fee to make

their own VHS machines, and tons of companies offered VCRs from the most basic machines

with a mechanical clock-timer to the crazy advanced ones like these.

This meant there was a lot of competition between manufacturers, and prices for VHS

machines tended to stay lower than their Beta counterparts.

A VHS model sporting a 3 day, one event timer like this Beta model may have cost a few hundred

less, in fact this chart shows a Panasonic unit available for 995, although it can't

record at the SLP speed (not that it mattered all that much as a T-160 at LP was still more

recording time than an L-810 at Beta 3).

Now, sony did eventually come around and produce Beta machines for others, for example Sony

produced some machines under the Zenith name, and they didn't all out refuse to allow

licensing--Sanyo and Toshiba both made Beta machines later on, as well as others.

But the menagerie of VHS VCRs to choose from kept manufacturers in a price war with each

other, and thus it was very common for a similarly-specced VHS machine to cost hundreds of dollars less

than a Beta model.

Was sony completely wrong to avoid licensing?

Perhaps not.

The price war amongst VHS manufacturers meant they had to cut costs to compete with each

other, and thus the machines tended to be less well made than Beta machines, with some

cut corners.

But usually they were just as reliable as Sony's machines, and details like a dampened

cassette drawer and soft-touch buttons don't mean much to the shopper if you can save a

few hundred bucks by avoiding them.

Plus, the intense competition between VHS manufacturers meant they had to compete with

each other on features as well, so these companies were quickly learning what features mattered

most to consumers, like decent timers, whereas Sony just kept chugging along doing their

thing without stopping to ask what the consumer actually desired.

So again, which one of these would you buy?

This RCA unit, with its extremely versatile timer and 6 hour recording time, or this Sony,

with its one event timer, 4.5 hours recording time, and nice eject mechanism?

Oh, and don't forget BetaScan!

But my favorite detail about this machine in particular is the recording speed selector.

Notice how it chooses between Beta 2 and 3.

Where's 1?

Sony basically admitted, in 1979, mind you, they effed up by proclaiming, well we know

beta 1 is useless, so let's just not let you use it anymore.

This was only 4 years after the entire format was released!

This model has a switch to let you use Beta 1, but it's located on the back under this

cover cause they really just don't want you to think about it anymore.

This is particularly hilarious because the Beta 1 speed offered a slightly better picture

quality than VHS SP, which led many people to sing praises about Beta's better picture,

but since Beta 2 became the standard it was essentially like recording on VHS LP all the

time, so the quality became pretty similar, in fact

you could say Beta 2 looks--and sounds, given the slower linear

tape speed on non-hifi machines) slightly worse than VHS SP.

We interrupt this program for a quick message:

OK, you can't say things like that without

some people losing their minds in the comments.

Here's some footage recorded on a VHS VCR at the SP speed.

OK, now here's the same footage on Beta at Beta 2.

Now here they are side by side.

I will admit that this is using a newer VHS machine than the Beta one,

not that this is a huge surprise given VHS machines were made long after Beta machines

and the Beta machine isn't in perfect shape.

But it still looks pretty similar.

Oh, and sound.

Here's a clip from VHS SP.

Now Beta 2.

So, decide for yourself.

I'll upload another video with all of this footage and details on my methodology.

And a little card will be appear right about now if it's ready.

Personally I don't see a difference, and technical data is remarkably similar between

the two.

But I'll stay out of this, go ahead and argue amongst yourselves, if you please.

So, in 1979, just 4 years after its release, Beta was struggling to justify its existence.

Now you might think that Sony would try and find a way to differentiate beta from VHS

to give a concrete reason to buy a beta machine.

And try they did.

But every time they offered a new feature, either they went about it in the complete

wrong way and shot themselves in the foot, or VHS just copied it.

For example:

In 1983, Sony released Beta HiFi.

Look at us!, they said, CD-quality sound on videotape!

VHS will never match that.

Guess what.

They did.

In 1984.

Then, in 1985 Sony released SuperBeta, a slightly-better picture quality standard boosting image quality

by shifting the Y carrier, whatever that means.

VHS will never copy that!

Guess what?

They did, creating the VHS HQ standard.

To be fair this wasn't nearly the improvement that SuperBeta was, particularly since many

manufacturers resisted its implementation due to cost and JVC was forced to reduce the

minumum specs for it, but still.

Interestingly VHS actually far and away leapfrogged SuperBeta with the introduction of SuperVHS

(I wonder where they got the idea for that name), or S-VHS in 1987.

S-VHS was almost a 60% increase in resolution over standard VHS, much more than the 20%

improvement achieved by SuperBeta.

Sony wouldn't match that until the next year with Extended Definition-Beta, actually

called ED-Beta, a fitting name given how difficult it seemed for Sony to produce a meaningful

rise in sales.

Really, though, both SuperVHS and ED-Beta weren't ever all that relevant due to their

high cost compared to their standard counterparts.

But one of Sony's ultimate missteps was their idea of a camcorder--Betamovie.

Sony figured that the smaller cassette of Beta would work to their advantage, allowing

them to create a smaller all-in-one camera than the competition.

Great.

While their camera was pretty small for its time, they had to sacrifice a lot to make

it work.

Namely, the ability of the camera to play a tape back!

They performed some weird technical magic to shrink the video transport down to where

it would record onto the tape in a completely strange fashion that would work fine once

removed from the camera and placed in a normal VCR, but which could not be played back by

the very device that recorded it.

I'm sorry, but how stupid is that?

Since there was no ability to review what you recorded in-camera, Sony also decided

that an electronic viewfinder wasn't necessary, and instead just gave you an optical one.

So, not only could you not be sure if the shot was in focus or if exposure was OK while

recording, but you would have no way of reviewing your footage till you could get home and pop

the tape in your VCR.

As you can imagine, sales weren't great.

Meanwhile, JVC actually had a pretty clever idea and created the VHS-C format in 1982,

which were small cassettes that only held a half hour of footage at SP speed (90 minutes,

at SLP) but which contained honest-to-goodness VHS recordings on them.

These cameras were smaller than Sony's incredibly dumb Betamovie, and the machines could play

the tapes back!

Best of all, they simply go into an adapter for playback in a normal VCR.

Sony wishes they thought of that, for sure.

Sony eventually released the Video8 and then Hi8 formats which were formidable competitors

to VHS-C, but since no one in their right mind would purchase a dedicated Video8 VCR,

you'd have to watch your movies with the camcorder plugged into the TV or you'd have

to dub from the camcorder to a standard VCR, which reduced the quality of the second generation

copies.

I'll tell you my family was on team VHS-C, and we have the bins of tapes to prove it.

Hi8 produced a much sharper picture than VHS, but again, unless you wanted to plug your

camcorder into your TV every time you watch home movies, you have to dub it onto a normal

tape anyway.

In retrospect, it seems like Sony kept failing to put themselves in their customer's shoes.

Right from the start they were doomed because of their small cassette.

If they had done research to determine how people would actually use a VCR, they probably

would have found that recording time was more important, and they probably would've taken

the effort to have a sophisticated timer.

So if the Beta cassette had been made with VHS-like capacity, it's likely Beta would

have won the war.

After all, they had a year's head start.

But people flocked to VHS because it was simply more flexible.

Impressive trick features and niceties like the feather-lite buttons are of no use if

the machine doesn't do what you need it to do.

By the mid 1980s, sales between Beta and VHS were pretty lopsided.

Far more people owned VHS machines than Beta.

Naturally, when pre-recorded tapes with movies and what-not began to be sold under the brand

new product called "Home Video", sales of VHS copies were always stronger than Beta.

This led economies of scale to rear its ugly head, and for movie studios, producing Beta

copies of their latest home-release was more expensive than VHS.

So, either movie studios had to charge more for Beta, which was unpopular and only further

annoyed Beta loyalists, or they simply made less profit on each Beta sale, which annoyed

shareholders.

By the late 1980s, most movie studios had decided to altogether stop releasing their

films on Beta.

Not.

Good.

To many people, 1988 marked the end of Beta, as this was the year that Sony caved and started

marketing their own VHS machines. (Gasp)

The history of the videotape format war is

interesting, but in my view hilariously one-sided.

Sure, Sony was first to market, but they just kept screwing up!

It's like watching a cartoon where the protagonist repeatedly slips on a banana peel.

Is it fair to say it was all Sony's fault?

Not really.

After all, VHS kept copying their developments.

But Sony trapped themselves with this cassette.

4.5 hours isn't enough.

Even the name wasn't a good idea.

Beta kind of implies second, as in the second best, the fallback, the reserve, number two,

the alternative option.

Alpha might have been better.

Hell, even Epsilon.

Anything but "not quite first".

And there were plenty of annoying little details that plagued Beta, like the one-sided cassette

window, and their strange decision to label tapes based on actual physical length and

not recording time.

Sony famously did win their second big format war, back in 2006 when Blu-Ray was fighting

HDDVD.

So at least we can say with a fair bit of certainty that they did indeed learn from

their mistakes.

Oh, and their 1982 release of a new product co-developed with Philips went very well for

them--that new product?

The compact disc, or CD.

I hope you enjoyed this video!

The idea is to update inexpensive window frames, baths, and rims of cars. The building - "Khrushchev" block, car - not a Mercedes. Preferably the presence of the garage, and with the development of the business and the heated space of around 60-70 sq m 1) Filled in all the advertising pages Windows on duralumin and plastic basis is not affordable to ordinary residents of a block of 5-storey and 7-storey houses, of which up to 60% in the cities of Russia. Option to replace window frames in standard wooden 3 types: - very cheap restored; - new almost standard sample, but is sealed between the glass (and not requiring raspolojeniya when washing); - new "Suite" - 3-layer-glazing. A rough business plan is as follows: An example of a window 1.4 m x 1.4, two frames, window: Profile of dry pine at 4000 RUB./KUB - 0,11 cube = 440 RUB. 2 square metres of glass x 2 = 4 sq. m at 50 RUB = 200 RUB. Sealant 2 types of paint-0.5 kg = 70 RUB. Hardware 6 hinges 8 RUB + 5 pens for 15 + screws =130 RUB Salary of collector - 500 RUB/day : 10 boxes = 50 RUB. The salary of the installer - 700 RUB/day : 7 window = 100. Delivery within 15 km = 50 RUB. A total of 990 RUB for a standard new window. Total cost 1040 RUB or 33$ or 16.5$/sqm This is 5-6 times less than that is asking for 1 sq. m. of glass. The apartment has 4 Windows. Compare 132$ for a new painted window in the block, exhausted resource 5 stories or 700 (without macroprolactinemia, etc.), really about$ 1,000 residential window work for three years? And another 25 years, these Windows will stand up, as the five-storey building (kapitalka can only dream)! And then there's the restoration of old frames, which in 60% of cases will get us nothing, and then there are "suites" of sandwich, at cost 100-150 rubles. more... Here our business is expanding and we have a production area - Assembly separately, the color separately... and transport type gazelki on the horizon... 2) What makes a poor, but reasonably squeamish person to dream about replacing the tub and what's stopping it? - the price of the bath in the 2600-3000 RUB. - extortion plumbers - about 1500 rubles. - to raise the new/old throw - about 500 rubles. So, for 3700-4000 RUB our customer would have dreamed, but for 3000 rubles would be "ready", but "under the key, and without waste, and that the enamel was 20 years ago, and the colour is pale lemon with rotovisco". Now the economy of the project "fingers". Stokilogrammovye "cohonina" in major cities do not? And how many yards of these lies whole, but cracked, "hugunin"? Cold painting is a 2-3 year durability for 400 rubles., a week without a bath, and 4000 rubles for 20 years. And if you emulirovat bath, stationary, hot (like cars) and use a non-enamel$10/kg? There is a 200 RUB our painter, 160 RUB paint, 1500 - installers, 140 RUB may delivery, i.e. the cost of 2000 rubles. baths any exclusive color... And we put the customer half-price us or carefully restored - a question of ethics. The client will be 100% confident in the originality, in any case, all my friends will give our address. Well, we are honest guys, restored bath, the method of Du Pont, exclusive, read car magazines and don't lie one bit, if the paint took this catalog for Cadillac 1969 :-)) 3) If we are set for 10 frames, 3 baths, business began to give a confident "germs", that the painter was not bored, let peskostruy and emuleret rims in the color of the customer - supplier 10% will be surrounding the tire... Seasonal demand at the same time, smooth... Where to get sandblasting, reflectors for drying and Gazelle for distribution? So we have a small business that began with the Assembly of profile and glass in the garage... And the boys 12-15 thousand rubles/month bring home, and we tyschonku other will benefit from it, but not RUB (really, BEFORE tax :_))

#01 - Test Drive Ferrari Racing Legends - Dawn Of A New Age | Ferrari 125 S - Duration: 14:04.

hello and welcome to let's play old games and welcome to Ferrari racing

legends test drive and so this is the start of a new game and this game

features a lot of different Ferraris this game came out in 2011 I bought it

recently from what what site was it basically it's a steam version but I had

to get the key from a different website GamersGate actually and I did not know

we could sort of activate this game but it did because this game was a games for

Windows life thing so I wasn't sure if this would work but it does you have to

just create an offline profile so anyway so this game is working and the reason I

wanted to do a less place because I like for always the like racing games and

this has a nice campaign here now what they've done is they've split the cars

into three different eras golden silver and modern so from 1947 to 73 is the

golden era of the old classic Ferraris when they started and then they have the

silver cars from the 70s and the 80s the testarossa's and those sort of things

and then the modern cars from 91 words to up to 2011 when the game came out so

I wanted to sort of do a whole less play series and try and see if I can complete

the campaign now I played a long time ago Need for Speed Porsche Unleashed I

think it was called the thing came out in the year 2000 that also had a nice

campaign where you sort of worked as a factory test driver and you did

different events so this has a similar feel to it although this is not as

similar but it is a lot of fun if you like Ferraris and if you like sort of

Arkady and a bit of semi you could call it a semi simulation type game because

it is more not the usual arcade game but it's not also completely a simulation

game now when I played it before I played it with a keyboard and mouse and

I found it quite difficult obviously so this time I'm going to play it with the

Xbox 360 controller on PC and I hope it is enough to play this

game because the harder segments could get difficult I'll try and disable as

many driving is as possible I'll only leave the gearbox automatic because

obviously the controller is not that easy and so yeah let's play this and see

how we do also our elders are in during the racing

part I'll not I'll not talk at all from the menials shut up and another when

there is a replay towards the end I will give my thoughts and opinions and yeah

and for the driving I will play the usual in-car camera and from the replays

I'll pick a different camera angle so let's start and I hope you enjoy

watching this let's play series dawn of a new age

Silverstone GP 1959 1 2 5 s main objective finish in the top three bonus

objective finishing first Ferraris on the hunt for three factory test drivers

you are one of the eight from original 100 applicants who's made it this far

today is the final elimination round finish in the top three and the job is

yours you are racing in the Ferrari one two five s the first car produced at

built by Ferrari and the first in history to bear the Ferrari name we are

eight laps into the race and you have made your way to second with only two

laps remaining all you have to do is finish in the top three good luck so

this is sort of in in-between the race and we have to maintain our position or

just stay within the top three so let's start for the difficulty let's pick

normal you see and I'll see if if it's too hard I'll change if you think see

other if you have a custom difficulty here

okay so it's loading because sometimes making it easy works against you so I'll

shut up now

who nearly

that guy's coming on my inside No

whoa look at that

nearly lost it

okay

Oh No

final lap

messed it up oh no he's on my tail I

don't think I can catch that guy in the front

I'm all over the place

this is actually pretty good my hands are sweating okay I'll shut up up I said

I won't talk what I'm talking I want the one come on come on here we are in the

lead

you

nearly went off

okay just don't hit anything we are nearly there

and we want yeah we go to job ah that was a nice race first up I

enjoyed it quite a bit so I don't if there is a replay option yes we have a

replay let's select a replay okay this is where it started I think this is a

good camera angle for the replay now so watch the car in black it comes close

and not over here I think this should we skip forward a bit okay see he won

nearly came on the inside over there but the straight was easy for me

so I went very wide here because I just lost it at the turn now watch this watch

this and

toggle s reverse a bit let's see because that was a bit of exciting action here

okay let's see here watch this and a racing incident my

fault velocity again

well I was ahead of him oh my we can't see anything on this angle let's see

there is a different angle where we can see something okay let's go back because

that was an interesting incident in my rear view mirror actually

now this angle doesn't cover it now we can't see that this is the best angle we

can get

although we can change the drivers okay that's good let's see if we can get the

Blackhearts perspective

so this one's me the black card okay let's go back for the back okay let's

see it from his perspective we are the one in red in front watch this watch

this so he pulled the side and over he goes

wow this is pretty good now let's see it from the other cars perspective yeah

this car this will be the best angle whoa oh that was fun so I'm the one in

the light red car let's go back to our own camera angle okay this is me okay

this is the best sort of angle so okay let's keep this part we hit the wall

here if you can see we hit the wall here much still wasn't too bad I guess now at

this point I did not think I would be able to overtake the yellow car because

I was all over the place here in fact the red car the dark red car nearly

Lesson 9: SVO Loop-会話の流れはSVOでできている - Duration: 5:59.

Hi guys Patrick from Santa Barbara English. Today's video is about 'Rhythm.'

okay so this is the second video about rhythm, if you haven't, please watch my

lesson number five because today's video is going to expand on that a little bit

more. The basic problem is English is SVO, and Japanese is not, and because of that,

the order that we speak is different, and the order that we think is different, and

it's difficult for Japanese to change the order that their brain thinks of

words and says things. Ok so this is how I teach beginners whether they're

children or whether they're adults. Ok so I start with flashcards. I love flashcards. Very

convenient. And I do...in the beginning I start with this:

okay. So this is SVO. And I get students to make sentences.

I'll give them a basic card like this 'bus.' And they'll say something like 'This is

a bus.' The bus is yellow. I ride the bus every day. Yesterday I rode the bus.

I like buses. Just SVO okay. After they get that down, and they can say SVO

sentences, the next step is to add some connecting words. So: and, but, so, or, then,

etc. There are many of these but just a few of them for example. And then I get

them to make sentences. And I join them together. So, you do like this SVO

and...SVO but... SVO or.... SVO.. and you just get used to that again and again. So

something simple 'dog.' So: I like dogs, but my apartment is small, so I don't have a dog.

I want a big house, because I want many

dogs. Okay? So just SVO.....SVO...SVO... and you

get used to that rhythm. Now that's slow. When I speak naturally it's more:

'Um I like dogs but I live in a small apartment so I can't have a dog, but one

day I want a big house and then I'm going to get a lot of dogs. And this loop

is going around and around. Okay now I'm not going to go into too

much detail about these connecting words because there are many of them and you

can learn them in your text books. I might make some videos later about the

difference between 'because' and 'so' and some of the words that Japanese have

trouble with, but for now just practice with the basic ones. So you don't

need to have the words at the end, you can if you want, but you can also put a

word in the beginning. So, for example:

And you make this loop. So if you have a sentence like, a conversation: "Honey what

do you want for dinner?" "Well, we can go out, OR we can stay home, BUT IF we go out,

it will cost more money, SO I think we should stay home. What do you think?" Right?

So: Well.. if... because.. so.. and you just make this loop. Now I know this is

simple, excuse me,this is a simple way of speaking, and this is actually how

children speak. They're very 'Mommy I'm hungry. I didn't get a snack. I want a

cookie. Can I have a cookie?' They're just looping, okay? Now, when I ask

you this, if I ask a student: 'What did you do this weekend?' It's very natural for

them to start thinking in a Japanese way, and say '何かな。。新しいマフラー。。'

No. 'What did you do this weekend?' Well, I bought a scarf

because, last year I lost my scarf, so I didn't have one, and recently it's

getting cold, and my friend told me, that Uniqlo has a sale, so I went shopping for

a scarf. Perfect. Okay? That looping pattern is what you have to get used to.

And again, if you ask me naturally I will say: 'Well I lost my scarf last year and

it's been getting cold recently so I went shopping on the weekend

because I heard Uniqlo had a sale and I got a new scarf and I really like it.

And if your brain is used to doing this loop, you can stay with me, and we can be

having a conversation together. If your brain is still going OV...OV.. and my

brain is going SVO...it is very difficult for us to have a conversation. And you

can tell when somebody is thinking SVO.. SVO with me, because if they're not, they

always wait until I finish. I'll say something, and they go.... うん。If I say 'So

yesterday I went shopping..' '...Okay' 'And I bought a scarf..' '...Okay' and their brain is

processing, and thinking back, and processing, and thinking back, but that's

not natural. That's not how when you're speaking in Japanese it's always, あのね。。

何？あの。。昨日ね。。はい。The person is talking, you're with them, if they're

talking you're with them. And then if you say something that they don't understand

they're right there. 'Yesterday I went shopping..' 'uh-huh' 'And I bought a blah-blah..'

'A what?' 'A blah-blah..' 'Oh okay yeah..' and you're together the whole time.

Okay? So you have to get your brain used to this SVO looping, and I recommend you

get some simple flashcards, make some sentences, learn these connecting words,

'if, so, then, and, because, or..' There's many of them online. And start practicing this

looping way of thinking. Okay? Thanks for watching, please Subscribe, please Like,

please Share, and have a nice day! Bye

Tattoo - Duration: 3:03.

Hello, everyone!

I'm Cath!

You have probably heard people say that,

People, especially women, with tattoos,

Are bad people, the lowest of low,

Or for women,

They're considered to be sluts.

Today, we will talk about whether or not that's true,

And what to consider before getting a tattoo.

The art of tattooing can traced back to about 3,000 BC,

As seen the body of Otzi the Iceman.

In Cambodia,

One of the most well-known forms of tattoo is Yantra,

Originated in China and Vietnamese over 2,000 years ago,

And it spread to Thailand and Cambodia.

In some tribes,

Tattoos are a part of their culture.

The meaning of them vary from one tribe to another.

When speaking of contemporary tattoo,

Female tattoo began to increase in the 19th century.

As the feminism movement rose,

Women started demanding for their rights,

And showing that they have control over their own bodies.

One way of doing so is through tattoos.

It's the same in this day and age.

Tattoos have become a form of art.

Some people get a tattoo because they like it.

Whereas some get it to show that they have rights over their body.

However, before deciding to get a tattoo,

There are some things you need to consider.

You have to remember that tattoos are permanent.

Before getting a tattoo,

You need to carefully decide what tattoo to get.

It should be something that you want and love in the long run,

Not something on a whim.

It should be something that you'll love in 10 or 20 years.

It can be something meaningful to you,

Or something that you love.

One thing to be wary of,

Is matching tattoos.

Relationships aren't stable.

Relationships don't always last forever.

But tattoos are forever.

Albeit tattoos can be removed,

It wouldn't be as new,

And it would cost a lot of time and money.

Also remember that,

After getting a tattoo, you might be criticized or discriminated.

There could be some workplace that frowns upon employees with tattoos.

Before getting a tattoo,

You have to ask yourself whether or not,

You can handle the criticisms and the hate.

There's actually nothing to look down upon when it comes to tattoos.

It's existed for thousands of years.

And it won't destroy Khmer culture,

Because tattoos, like Yantra, are a part of Khmer culture.

It's just changing from Yantra to different forms of tattoos.

When it boils down to it,

Tattoos are a form of art,

That we can use to express ourselves.

It's not a measure of how good a person is.

For instance,

I also have tattoos,

And they mean a lot to me.

Besides, I think of my body as a canvas,

And I want to decorate that canvas with arts.

It's okay with you want to get a tattoo,

And it's fine if you don't want to,

Because it's your rights and your body.
