Agreed, this is the 1st video of his that I've seen and the VO almost made me stop watching. Viewed a few of his older videos without the odd VO and found it much more pleasing.
Not sure it’s a voiceover artist… I’m quite certain, like too many other channels I often unsubscribe from, he used an all too familiar no-cost/low-cost AI text to speech tool. I agree with you and the hundreds of others. The commonly available early 21st century “AInglish” (“AI” + “English”) narration/voiceover tech lacks personality. It’s hard to believe that a content developer could put so much time and effort into creating compelling video content - only to cheapen it by using cheesy AI text-to-speech software.
Agreed. It would be good if the person doing the voice over had managed to learn the difference between wind as in the movement of air and wind as in to tighten the spring in a mechanical clock with a key or to wrap a wire around something
Maxim's lab and workshop burned down, so he's publishing some pre-recorded videos and might not be able to record his own voiceovers until the equipment is replaced. He explains this on the latest video on the main Thoisoi channel.
Long time fan really appreciate your content. It's weird to watch and not hear your voice. Truthfully i got used to your accent and had no trouble understanding you before! Ill miss your accent i felt it added a great quality to your videos
Yes! We thought it was a positive feature! Imagine if he now teaches an AI speech emulator to narrate the videos, but to train it , he uses his own voice?! That would be a funny experiment.
Excellent content Thoisoi2. And yes, I miss your original voice. It's nice to hear other accents. Let the world know there's more than plain midwestern America people out there. And that you're doing all this hard work. Be proud. ☕😉
I just made a comment about so many YT channels using text to voice generators to fool people into thinking they're listening to a real human imparting their own knowledge and not clicking ctrl+C and then ctrl+p on wikipoedia andthen passing the info off as their own. Your channel is one of the legit benefits of text to speech and translate tools. Love your videos!
That piece you got of the low temperature superconductor was a section of a cable billet for making acellerator magnets. The wiire is stripped of the copper cladding and joined with a ceramic superconducting shunt. It is kept a few degrees above its transition point and charged to the desired current. When this is reached the heater that stops the shunt from superconducting is shut off and the current flows in an endless loop. Very 😎
This is a priceless video, thank you so much! We usually only see static images of the flux pinning concept, but you went in there with your sausage fingers and moved it around, doubled up the superconductor, and gave us a real life look into this phenomenon. Keep up the awesome work!
@@joho0 i think this voice over is AI-generated, that's why it sound the way it does, and has issues with words that are ambiguous w/o context like "winding"
I recommended cloning his old voice.. and using Auto caption to generate the text.. it wouldn't be exactly the same but it would be a lot like I think it would be a good tradeoff.. and take some of the work off his hands.
Wonderful video! As you said it yourself at the end, I clicked to watch a superconductor video, but learned so much more besides that. Very informative, with unbelievably complex practical examples. Great work!
That experimental maglev train has been around sometime. There was a big accident with it do to operational error. The cost per mile of "track" is extremely high when compared to traditional high speed rail...The train has retractable wheels!
Please man, we enjoy hearing your actual voice. And if anyone cant handle the accsent or understand it? Maybe they should learn to, you were never hard to understand and it made the video that much more enjoyable hearing that voice. We love it, change back please. Still gonna support you no matter but give your croud your voice, we do prefer it
1:50 A magnetic compass would not have been of much use to the Vikings, because their route was close to the magnetic pole. They used a Sun Compass, which is an instrument particularly suited for such latitudes.
Thanks for the demonstration of cooling the superconductor near the magnet. I always wondered how currents were started in them in the first place. I guess it had to happen while the temperature is above the critical temperature.
Thanks for the video. Great stuff. Neodymium magnets are super cool. But, check out Iron Nitride magnets which are ~2x stronger than neodymium magnets... I would really love to see how you make Iron Nitride magnets... One small thing re: the Translation, the "winding" is not pronounced "wind-ing", it is pronounced "wine-ding"
I've heard that you can make iron nitride by tumbling iron oxide rust and ammonium nitrate in a ball mill, then sinter into the shape you want. But the recipe is very finnicky. Robert Murray Smith did a video about them a few months ago, where he lists a few different methods that have been used to make them.
@@DFPercush Yes, exactly. And that is why it would be good to actually see it work and get some improvements.RMS didn't actually make it... so I was hoping someone would try to see if it really worked.
11:50 You need a milliohm capable meter that includes kelvin sense clips to do it properly, or at the very least the ability to null out the testing-lead offsets, as they are normal copper wire there.
From my understanding Quantum locking is not the equal repulsion against gravity. The repulsion against gravity is due to the expulsion of the magnetic field lines from the superconductor; ideal diamagnetism due type 2 superconductor. Quantum locking is when there are impurities in the superconductor allowing magnetic flux to pass through those specific points keeping the magnet pinned to the superconductor; this keeps the magnet from sliding off the superconductor and the superconductor from falling away from the magnet.
Tere! I did not know you were Estonian. The overnight train to St. Petersburg isn't so bad, probably even better now than it was in the 90's. If nothing else, it can be a true adventure. On my first trip to Russia in 1992, I even had my own legitimate KGB agent as my cabin mate to talk to. I know he was legitimate as he identified himself as such and when crossing the boarder, the border agent who aggressively opened the door yelling "passi'porte" turned absolutely white upon seeing him and slammed the door shut, hence entering Russia without ever officially entering which caused me a problem on my way out. Anyway, Virtsu is REALLY close to Saaremaa and as they say, everyone from Saaremaa is related. As my family on my father's side originates from Saaremaa, I wonder if we are related?
Niobium/Titanium or Niobium/Tin is one of the best for continuous-field superconducting magnets and is often made into thick cable of individually insulated thin wire (litz wire) that is rectangular so it fits together evenly. It’s often coated in copper for thermal conductance. The current record-holder for the strongest continuous-field magnet for an official body primarily, the 45 Tesla Hybrid gets its field from a non-superconducting magnet called a “Florida Bitter Magnet”. It contains an incredibly thin and fine spiral-staircase shape of copper plates and insulation. These plates have cooling holes in them because they are too thin to conduct the very high current without overheating. The 45 Tesla Hybrid has a superconducting magnet that adds additional field-strength to the magnet. Superconducting magnets seem more practical than “Bitter Magnets though because the cooling is more low-profile and doesn’t have to fight waste-heat. Bitter Magnets are more suited for lab use which could include pulsed operation. In theory, the YBCO shown in the video could be used to make quench-resistant magnets because it lacks the elasticity of typical metal wire.
Maxim's lab and workshop burned down, so he's publishing some pre-recorded videos and might not be able to record his own voiceovers until the equipment is replaced. He explains this on the latest video on the main Thoisoi channel.
The Vikings discovered potassium magnetite in Vinland (Canada), they had magnetic fish shape on a string. Mag-rail trains use aluminium magnetics. Oxygen magnetics are even stronger.
When you try to measure the resistance of the superconductor tape, you're more or less only seeing the resistance of your multimeter's leads. If you do a proper 4-point measurement you'll see it drop as expected.
Could you make a video where you explain exactly how superconductivity works, but don't just stick to the surface, but really go into detail about what sience currently knows?
even if the narrator sounds more "professional", I really liked better when it you narrating the video, with accent and all, loved your voice! Also, great video, magnets are awesome!
I've been working on technology over the last 40 years. This technology is so far ahead of its time that it looks like magic everybody I told said it was impossible until they watched it work! MadMarkTech
I see that you now use a translator to make your speech more clear, but I like your real voice; sure it was a bit of work at first sometimes but I prefer your real voice ! :) Great vid btw
16:20 A simplified model of the high-speed line Do the passengers know that the high-speed line between Tokyo and Osaka contains an overhead loop, a barrel roll, and other roller-coaster features?
Did you measure the resistance of your resistance meter and leads with the probe tips shorted together to see what the residual meter reading was (there is always some)?
I know one out of every thousand words may be hard to hear, specially for those of us that aren't native English speakers (Spanish here) but since I studied Russian I find your accent quite charming and I'll deeply miss it if you decide to turn to AI voices or whatever! It is not the same and I like how you voice-over your content in russian-movie's style :-D
If the train was operated inside a tube and the air was pumped out in front of it, The top speed would be greatly increased and even Mach speeds could be achieved.
sooo, does that mean iron is the best balance of resisting and conducting? but what about a superconductor coil magnet made with boron nitride-nanotubes and ceramic: so this could be fairly easily made and retain its charge fairly well (being boron it will also resist heat better than carbon) Edit: Ah, I see. so the ceramic alloy is already being used for magnets Edit 2: Lol you went really in-depth
I’m curious what super conducting capabilities you may discover when looking into electromagnetism using a silver and gallium and argon and aluminum alloy. Of what percentage makeup of each individual material and the method of fusing such together is still to be determined. But new studies of superconducting properties of gallium at room temperature are quite surprising. with your current knowledge and excellent attention to your craft of all the items I mention I think you may, for lack of a better term be “picking up what I’m putting down”
Do all high temperature super conductors lose super conductivity in very high magnetic fields? I thought that is one reason niobium alloys are still used, even with the requirement for helium cooling.
Man! You don't need a voiceover artist! Your own voice and accent are a part and parcel of your channel! And we all loved it!
