ELI5 : What is this concept of a parallel timeline ??
It comes from quantum mechanics where particles travel all possible routes and when making calculations you need to account for all possible variations, because they affect each other.
When particle is measured, all variations disappear except one and that one continues thereafter without the affects of others.
Multiword model dictates that the other variations don't disappear. They just disconnect from our reality and continue elsewhere.
Currently multiworld model is popular. Imho it 's the only one that properly explains all quantum phenomena.
Although there is a good argument wether multiworld is proper science.

Has anyone else noticed how search quality on YouTube and Google have worsened?
It also feels like some pages in top results didn't even exist before I made the search. They are filled with generic babble about the subject without ever going to details or conclusions. Dribble that no human would ever write

If you speak another language besides ENG, are the subtitles terrible?
Finnish here.
Since nothing is dubbed, people here understand English quite fluently and only read subtitles occasionally when the speech is unclear. Switch is mostly unconscious.
Mistakes are actually rare and fun when you spot one. It's usually due to translator not being familiar with idiom or proverb. Sometimes they are an interesting reminders how finno-ugric and germanic languages handle things differently.
Only times it can get annoying is when there's something untranslatable like puns or other kind of wordplay. Translator just wings it and pulls something really stupid.

GOG when available, but what should I choose between PS5 physical and Steam when not?
I never sold any of my oldies goldies, so, physical copies just take space.
My prefered method is to generally buy games on Steam and if I consider one of them a classic that I might want to return to in the distant future, I'll buy then again from GOG and store them on an external drive.
I've been a gamer since 1985 and all games that still work from 1980-2000 are mostly ones that were pirared, had no copy protection, or had a really simple protection that just checked if you had the manual of other peripheral. i.e. the ones that can be transfered from one storage media to another.
GOG copies probably have the greatest longevity.

Can things exist without anyone being aware of their existence?
So, can something exist that is in no way quantium entangled with anything that comprises your experience of existence?
If you subscribe to the multiworld principle, basically anything potentially viable can and will.
Can something exist if you are not aware of it?
Most of reality. Human experience is quite limited.

The War Thunder forum has once again been used to share restricted plane documentation - this time about the F-117 Nighthawk
At least get a picture of a F-117. Putting up an image from the game with a random aircraft is just lazy.
