  I use that to watch slow lectures at anywhere to 1.8x to 2.3x the speed. Turns a 40 minute lecture into a 20 minute lecture.

    Some people one youtube speak really slowly, or are unprepared. The 1.25x speed button is great for that. Also, some youtubers speak way too fast. Slowing them down helps comprehension a lot, I find.

  I am used to speed up things, but last weekend I suddenly realised I can also slow down engrenages (a French show recommended in another HN thread, by the way) and suddenly I can understand so. much. French. It's like magic!

    Not many people are aware that this is in fact the natural way spoken French sounds like in France, because of a difference in air composition and thus the speed of sound.

      Uhm, no that's definitely not true.
