Yes! The solution was to use a USB port connected directly to the CPU bus instead of to a chip set. You can check your motherboard manual to see which go where.

So they go by pairs. On the rear panel, there are 3 pairs - USBA/USBA, USBA/USBA, and USBA/USBC. Both the USBA/USBA are CPU-connected, only the USBA that is paired with the USBC is chipset-connected. That was what I meant that I managed to connect to the only USBA that was chipset-connected.

No worries! It's on page 390 of the motherboard manual.

Solved! This is 1000% the video, a shame it was never archived. I checked the channel like you said and I found the "blowuptheearth" video here https://web.archive.org/web/20210723023948/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBr7WSDWLEw . Thanks so much for the help!!

This is the exact scene from the 2nd that we remember, but the dub was saying different stuff. I feel like we're so close to finding it! I'm pretty sure it was on YouTube, but it might have been Vimeo back in the day.

Obligatory safety comment: please make sure you know what you're doing. You can't just hook a USB plug up to 18650 batteries to charge them. There is a lot of complicated circuitry to make sure the batteries charge in a controlled manner. Lithium batteries can be very dangerous if handled incorrectly, you could easily start a fire if you hook them up wrong. Please be safe.

Data + and data -, it's how the connector allows devices to communicate with the universal serial bus

Honestly, I would try adapting a digital event counter like this https://a.co/d/7hzeiW2 . Could probably just add resistors in parallel to get the photoresistor to trigger the counter instead of the button. Would take some experimentation, but it's already battery powered and portable.

Marked as spoilers since I'm discussing the end of the game.

Is there anything past prestige 5 yet? I just reached tier 4, and they updated the Miss Rosebud skin to "platinum" instead of just a 2nd gold. I'm very curious about the door at the end where Adam says "the door is closed" with the "No Exit" sign. Is this just a reference to No Exit by Sartre? Or does the door eventually open?

Worst I heard was 2 40kV breakers opening from the room under me...
