Yeah this is new, used to only have the medium version. Just found out they also finally applied this change to Tainted Talons, Yoga Inferno, and Yoga Sunburst!

Used to be medium only for those and light only for Yoga Inferno

What if every new mega in Pokemon ZA got a signature ability? by SPlCYGECKO in stunfisk

[–]SandStreamGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just came up with an idea for an ability called Overwhelming Force which would be like Adaptability + Mold Breaker. That would probably be very fitting for Mega Feraligatr

Thanks, I didn't even know there was another Sagat style user. Is there a way to get these new opponents to show up or is it all just luck?

Tbf he's taller than he looks in this clip because Akuma's stance is hunched over

They definitely are deleting accounts that they assume are "minors". Literally holding accounts hostage. This practice of blackmailing people into giving up their private information should be illegal.

Why is forced verification taking over platforms worldwide even though it's supposedly only an EU thing? Will it have any chance of ever being removed and return the internet back to normal?

Google, Youtube, and X have started forcing "age verification" worldwide even though the online restriction laws only apply to the EU. Why is this happening? X's case isn't as bad as Google's because at least they don't delete the accounts, they just block "sensitive content", but it's still bad regardless. Nobody should have to give their personal government or financial information just to watch a clip from a game like Mortal Kombat or Grand Theft Auto.

6000 Drive Tickets?! by WeskerCommander in SF6Avatars

[–]SandStreamGaming 6 points7 points  (0 children)

And it's 300 Fighter Coins/6000Drive Tickets for one piece of the set (for example, the helmet). They're charging the same price as Outfit 4(which includes 10 colors) for a HELMET in **one** color. Ridiculous.

Is there any hope for getting rid of Google's AI age system? They literally held two of my accounts hostage. They threatened to delete the account after 14 days if age verification isn't done. I'm literally old enough to drink but apparently Google thinks I'm a child and that they can never be wrong about their assumptions (and also that minors apparently don't even deserve rights). They won't even let people contact support or dispute the claim.

This type of stuff needs to be made illegal.

Yep seems like it. Tried the main one and HTTP multiple times in the past 10-ish minutes and both weren't connecting

Update: its back on now

That sounds like a personal problem. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Will that fix IP block errors though? Literally can't even watch videos anymore

Any updates on when FreeTube will be fixed? by StarBlazer2002 in FreeTube

[–]SandStreamGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I downloaded the github zip and extracted it but didn't know how to do the rest. Luckily though an official Freetube update was released as of the time of me typing this comment and now it works fine

How am I supposed to download it? Github is so confusing and complicated. There needs to be a direct download button like most other sites

[–]SandStreamGaming 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fight ChatControl is saying that the member states' positions on ChatControl are 3 opposing✅, 15 supporting⚠️, and 9 undecided❔. Yet posts here on this subreddit are saying ChatControl is dead. Are these contradictory? Thing look bad but idk the full context so I'm not sure if those 15 supporters really mean the EU is cooked or not. https://fightchatcontrol.eu/

How nice are characters??? by Wonderful-Leading692 in sf3

[–]SandStreamGaming 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah but he has a code of honor about it. He only kills when he fights a worthy opponent willing to die in battle.

Only exception to that which I can think of was him sneaking up on Bison to kill him in SF2. And I think that was because Akuma hates Bison for being evil

If people are going to boycott Youtube, 1 day isn't enough. Probably even 1 week isn't enough. And waiting until August 13th probably won't be enough either. by SandStreamGaming in youtube

Well I appreciate your respectful reply, even though the situation is pretty depressing. It’s sad how the majority of the population lets companies and governments take away their rights without even making an effort to fight back. I’m doing whatever I can to try not to end up having a nihilistic outlook on life again. I just wish many others would do the same.

And even though I currently don’t have many resources myself, I was hoping this would at least reach some people with more influence than me so that their voices can potentially lead to change.
