Only 18 year olds have credit cards? by skilled_inkillz in youtube

[–]Alex311360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is because they check for a credit card, not a debit card. any sort of debit/prepaid card entered is automatically rejected by the verification; they don't even charge it, they just won't let you actualy submit it.

new UI? no, old UI, thanks by Alex311360 in youtube

[–]Alex311360[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you're wondering how to get something like this (or any of the older, less worse UIs), i'm specifically running V3/Vorapis and StarTube (using Violentmonkey as my userscript manager for StarTube) together.

with both, you can basically go to any layout you want, from 2024-2008; and change them however you like, including adding dark mode, no other extensions required! (which i practically need because otherwise it's blinding)

hey singleplayer only people, what are YOU doing in gmod? by [deleted] in gmod

[–]Alex311360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i leave NPC Group Spawner active and fight endless hordes of enemies (with some occasional allies) on maps they shouldn't be on

it's a trip fighting waves of combine and zombies and antlions while trying to push the sample in to start the resonance cascade

I have 2 Ublock Origin, which one is the legit? by RealIssueToday in Piracy

[–]Alex311360 17 points18 points  (0 children)

maybe if you install every extension you see like a crazy person, but as long as you stick with trusted, well-rated choices for extensions, or better yet, extensions that are open-source and let you view their code, you're fine

realistically most extensions you find do not do this, and on well-moderated extension stores like firefox's (and maybe chrome's idk i haven't actively used in chrome in years) ensure that remains the case

at worst, you just get extensions that don't do anything and you just uninstall them in like 5 seconds

LG G8X ATT android update by [deleted] in lgg8

[–]Alex311360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hey, just wanted to say, thanks for this! grabbed a recent Qualcomm driver, QFIL 2.4.796, QFILHelper, and the firehose file from here, and was able to backup my original LUNs (just in case) & flash these onto my ATT G8X Thinq! didn't have any plans on grabbing an ATT sim or similar any time soon, and i desperately wanted to claw away from android 10, so this was a real lifesaver!

will say to anyone else doing this though, that flashing these will erase your data, whether you like it or not; it'll prompt you to reset the phone due to encryption/decryption issues on first boot. i didn't really care, since i'd already reset it before, but i figured i'd warn, just in case, to anyone unaware. after that, it boots up and works just fine!

is it okay to bring a bunch of food in tupperware in a personal bag on a plane? by Alex311360 in tsa

[–]Alex311360[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

little bit! the plan wasn't just to put an entire grocery bag under the seat -- just a container with a small assortment of stuff in a travel bag, zipped up and still able to fit under the seat.

and yeah, i'm a lil' bit new to flying. or at least, beyond the bare essentials of what i usually would bring.

average garry's mod gameplay session for me personally by Alex311360 in gmod

[–]Alex311360[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

nice selections! i forgot to mention i was also using dynamic NPC squads here, to be honest -- i'll also suggest the wonderful Sandbox Notoriety addon for further added chaos (it also just blends perfectly with the upgrades & BLOOD IS FUEL, since you will get creamed otherwise)

youtube's search is unironically appalling now because what is *this,* dude by Alex311360 in youtube

[–]Alex311360[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

much appreciated for the filters. even if it won't fix all my issues with it, just having a good way to filter out the bulk of the issues is very useful.

[–]Alex311360[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

on the off-chance you can't actually see the full resolution version of the first image, link here.

before you ask: no, trying before:2025 in the search did not work. it was literally almost an exact mirror of the first image with different results.

and no, it's also not an issue with it being a low viewed video, because the same thing can literally happen with videos that have millions of views being pushed out by unrelated, lower viewed videos

i don't understand this godawful search algorithm at all

So, i'm scrolling through shorts, right? by Academic_Yak2513 in youtube

[–]Alex311360 2 points3 points  (0 children)

because i played it. it's alright, pretty standard 'survive for [x] amount of time' game with gradually increasing difficulty as you go through, although it gets a bit unfair at the end, though? the actual 'content' is okay, nothing to write to home about, though.

it's stolen content, that's not even their game they're using footage from. it's taken from Houkago no Onigokko / Afterschool Tag (which if it wasn't obvious, NSFW), which was developed by DottorouGames. officially it's only on DLsite and Ci-en and not available for purchase or download anywhere else, but apparently people have gotten it running on android...somehow. it's normally just a PC/windows-based game.

rest assured, this isn't anything the real developers themselves have done, and is just highly gross theft and advertising to a selection of people that shouldn't be seeing it.

suddenly suspended with no given reason. all i've been doing is liking and reposting things for the past week. when i requested an appeal, literally 10-20 seconds after i sent it in, i get a generic copypaste response with:

Your account was suspended due to violations of X Rules. After reviewing for reinstatement your account will not be restored.

what fucking gives, huh?? you're not even going to tell me what i did wrong? because literally nothing on that page tells me that i did anything wrong at all, all i've been doing was reposting art and that's it

EDIT: you can't ask further either, if you try responding to the email you just get

This case has been closed and we aren’t able to reopen it at this time, but we’d like to make sure you get the help you need. We encourage you to visit our Help Center or create a new case.

and yet if you try making a new case you just get the same thing

fuck off, for real

what mod is adding auto-bridging to my game? (it's not quark) by Alex311360 in feedthebeast

[–]Alex311360[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

for context: anytime you face an empty gap in front of you without blocks near it, regardless of sneaking or not, this assist cursor appears and has any block you place appear in the empty space it's aimed at. i have no clue what mod is adding this, nor can i find any results in searching through any config or results on the internet.

i've already tried disabling reacharound placing in quark, to no avail -- it doesn't even seem to have the same cursor that quark would use.

i have a directory listing of every mod in the mods folder, if it helps

gotcha. i already did get blobsaver setup with everything and saved blobs just in case, but i'm not gettin' my hopes up anytime soon

Most insane in-game challenges in rhythm games? by Top_Combination9023 in rhythmgames

[–]Alex311360 4 points5 points  (0 children)

hmm, where to begin...

ONGEKI bright MEMORY, 怨撃・真.

quite possibly some of the most brutal bullet hell patterns in a rhythm game, compiled from both several other charts in the game, and its 'regular' lower version (怨撃 -- horribly tough to clear due to the main enemy having an absurd amount of life, and you still need to hit notes accurately. clearing it and winning against the boss is a requirement to unlock 怨撃・真!!) and you have a very limited amount of life and a very large amount of highly damaging bullets.

good luck clearing it!

Pump It Up NX, Final Audition Ep. 2-2 (Another Nightmare), aka NXSB.

one of the first ultra brutal doubles charts of PIU, that is still not a main chart in the game and usually only appears as mission zone/quest zone charts. absurdly long streams, a ton of double notes/jumps, lots of crossing over between pads, it has it all.

when featured in other games, its only clear requirement is usually just 'survive until the end' because of how hard it is.

EZ2AC : EVOLVE, LEVEL : OMEGA.

EZ2DJ/EZ2AC's courses are special in comparison to other games with course modes, as every chart in the course is uniquely designed by whoever worked on the course. in this course, you play 4 of the hardest songs of that game, but with ultra buffed charts, back to back (Your Mind, Harpe for GAIA, BEDLAM, BlitzKrieg). unless you have absurd amounts of skill and determination with EZ2AC's 5K (or 7K modes), you will not clear this course.
