The section “4. What editing does to the mark” talks about that. Probably best to look at that illustration again, but basically those edits would interrupt consecutive runs of detectable text, but if a run is long enough, it can still be detected with statistical significance.

So, it doesn’t have to check the ‘color’ of the words from start to end uninterrupted, but rather can also detect color sequences in the middle of the text.

Looks like it’s this one: makertube.net/c/veronicaexplains/videos

I used SepiaSearch to find her videos: sepiasearch.org

(Which did actually lead me to her old tinkerbetter.tube instance at first, but there it has a deprecation notice saying that she’s now on makertube.net.)

I also really wouldn’t get my hopes up that it’s particularly different from GTA 5. The setting is still just realism, so they can’t change much in terms of gameplay or art style, not even the storytelling can go too far off the rails.

The graphics and world simulation will likely be more, uh, realistic, but you’d really need to get a lot of enjoyment out of fine details for that to make much of a difference…

I think, something to be aware of is that it’s not just shade. It’s not just cooler below the tree. Trees also store and evaporate water, which cools the whole area. This summarizes the cooling effect quite well:

Tree implementation reduces peak monthly temperatures to below 26 °C in 83% of the cities. Trees can lower pedestrian-level temperatures by up to 12 °C through large radiation blockage and transpiration.

And well, ultimately if we accept that climate change is a thing, planting trees now is the cheapest investment we can make to combat the heatwaves in 10+ years from now.
It will reduce heat deaths. It will reduce AC costs of everyone living there. And it will mean that the city doesn’t lose out on taxes from people choosing to stay inside during a heat wave.

NatureCooling efficacy of trees across cities is determined by background climate, urban morphology, and tree trait - Communications Earth & EnvironmentUrban trees can lower pedestrian-level air temperature by up to 12 degrees centigrade, and the cooling efficacy depends on background climate, urban morphology, and tree trait, according to a global meta-analysis of 182 studies.
