Moving from the US to the EU soon... Any advice?

Hej Frank!

Welcome in advance!

Where are you gonna live? You don't need to specify city, but perhaps approximate destination? Jylland, Fyn, Sjælland? And which part?

Which line of work?

Indeed, try to learn Danish even though it is a ridiculous language. I believe there are even free courses, although I am not absolutely sure. Here's a few words to get you started:

Hej/godmorgen/goddav' = hello/good morning/howdy (last word especially in Jutland)
Farvel = goodbye
Tak = thank you
Velbekomme = you are welcome
Undskyld = sorry
Undskyld mig = excuse me
Ingen problem = no worries
Jeg hedder Frank = my name is Frank
Godt at møde dig = nice to meet you
Vi ses/hav det godt = see you/take care
Hav en god dag = have a good day

And remember! Free health care! Free schools and education! Although you will pay higher taxes, lol.

Hope you will enjoy! And feel free to ask questions. I live very near Aarhus in Eastern Jutland.

EDIT: formatting some how went wrong, just realised now. Sorry! Fixed.

What is “cheese” called in your language?

I was referring to Danish, but indeed it seems the same spelling also applies for Norwegian and Swedish. But quite different pronounciations, I would think. In Danish, you would say "åst" with an "å"- which everyone naturally knows how to pronounce of course.

Haha, yes, that's brilliant. We even do that here from time to time. One indeed does look dapper saying "OOOST".

Thanks for elaborating! I am in no way great at spotting such slop videos, but I did notice some of the stuff you mentioned.

In some of the videos, they have a little "self-cam" in the corner - is that artificial too?

Regarding artificial voicing, I did test a few videos - the phrasing, punctuation and sound effects were similar. Is that how you figure it is artificial?

And what gives away the faces are generated? Most videos even have comments - everything is fake?!

Thanks in advance. If I came across only one of the videos - and did not see all thumbnails in a search for instance - I must shamefully admit that I probably would not have spotted it.

That is very kind of you - thank YOU as well! :)

And insightful answer, thank you very much. Forgot all about that VLC could provide such useful information.

The main thing I’m not following is what you mean by having parse errors in Mp3tag.

Indeed, no metadata is present but the "Tag" still shows alot of parse errors (image attached). So if I edited some metadata, it would not show in Windows Explorer for instance.

And yes, audio is all good despite parse errors, but my inner nerd would like to optimise and put in correct tags and what not ;)
