@realfipso@IntCyberDigest Network scanning to determine who's home to know which ads to play to better separate you from your money. You should be uncomfortable with having a database tracking you.
@dangerdav@JamesSurowiecki@AlphEatsCats@majfisherusa@beta_rank_fb@grok Standardization isn't implementing inferior technology.
Broadcasters utilize timecode for syncing video feeds. Modern networked implementations use the Precision Time Protocol which can achieve microsecond sync accuracy.
@dangerdav@JamesSurowiecki@majfisherusa@beta_rank_fb@grok It's not overruled, it's directly utilized in the process of reviewing for time adjustments.
B1G's review was "is the clock 0:00" which is different from "did the play take longer than 9 seconds."
They are directly related, but there is a distinct difference.
@dangerdav@JamesSurowiecki@majfisherusa@beta_rank_fb@grok It's no different than blindly trusting hawk-eye, they're just picking which system to use. They both are supposed to have synced camera feeds
They chose TV because that's what millions of people see, not hawk-eye
Surely hawk-eye has been out of sync while TV was in sync before
@dangerdav@JamesSurowiecki@majfisherusa@beta_rank_fb@grok Yes, it's a bit unclear on whether it applies to strictly clockbug accuracy as a pregame check, or if the replay officials should judge the clock in the video for accuracy prior to use every time.
The latter seems too tedious for expedient reviews.
Phone photos of TVs commonly add moiré patterns from the clash between the screen's pixel grid and the camera sensor, plus rolling-shutter bands from mismatched refresh rates. Motion smoothing inserts artificial interpolated frames that aren't true original stills, while the phone's auto-processing and re-compression further alter colors, detail, and any broadcast artifacts.
The memo does not address inaccuracy of the broadcast feed. It simply directs that any decision to restore or adjust time in a replay review must be based on the embedded game clock in the program feed (or the broadcast graphic if no embedded clock is available). Stadium clock remains official time.
@dangerdav@JamesSurowiecki@majfisherusa@beta_rank_fb@grok There was a call for a play review, therefore it was reviewed. The proper procedure would've been to use NBC's footage. Replay officials would've needed to know if their system was having issues to seek alternative sources.
@spegg08@dangerdav@JamesSurowiecki@majfisherusa@beta_rank_fb@grok@grok, you're an AI so you can help assess. Should people trust a video where a sloperator slopped a video together with a novel, unproven AI model and clearly shows sloperations? Perhaps tag @spegg08 and remind him to be careful about slopping his slop box too hard.
@dangerdav@JamesSurowiecki@majfisherusa@beta_rank_fb@grok@grok why might a photo of a TV from a phone be an inaccurate representation of a still frame image? Something to do with motion smoothing or video compression artifacts, or something? Can't quite put my finger on it.
