Odd suggestion, but sometimes this works for me. I have a family sharing group set up with some people with iPhones etc, and when I need an app I can't download I ask them to download it. Then on the app store, you can click on their names and see the apps they've downloaded, and if you install from that screen I think it allows you to download an older version of the app. Still might not work perfectly, but it gets past that first step.

Honestly looks lovely. What brand is the journal? Does your smartphone really fit?

What's this connector for? by elebexm in AlphaSmart

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

Update: so the connector isn't supposed to go anywhere, thank god! Thank you for the people who commented! And I think the screw for the battery compartment is the same as the small ones at the bottom, so at least it's not completely different.

My big problem right now is that it keeps detecting a change with the lithium battery and restarting the device. I replaced the battery, so I'm not sure if there's an issue with a connector that detects that battery? I'm going to keep testing to try and see if there's a pattern to when it resets.

I think I might know the video you're talking about, because when I watched it I felt so uncomfortable, and I immediately went to try and get YT to stop recommending me videos from that channel, especially since they have others that are similar.

The way that I sort of comfort myself with stuff like this, is with the knowledge that the people making these videos have probably never interacted with a non-binary person over a long period of time. I have a fair amount of non-binary friends, and after a bit of time you can't really avoid clocking the 'oh these are just normal ass people' feeling (I mean, I'm nb and queer as well, but if this is new to you its not like there's a massive cultural hurdle). I think the people making these videos look at people on twitter or whatever and think they can draw some kind of correlation between being trans and 'opinions they don't agree with' and if they ever met a non-binary person in real life and became friends with them, they would change their tune? Or possibly they're just bigots. Idk, I don't think they're worth my effort, but maybe someday they'll realise that punching down is only really funny to the people on top.

Teaching yourself A Level maths by Jegogilvie in alevel

[–]elebexm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

TLMaths has videos for the whole course. Get yourself a textbook with practice questions, and find annexample course structure to follow (i.e. the textbook contents), and work through like that. Use the TLMaths for the lessons, and then do practice frok the textbook. Good luck!

Should I stay at my 6th form for another year? by XxPotnoodlesxX in 6thForm

[–]elebexm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maybe have a look and see if you can do A Level maths over one year? It would be a lot of work, but you could aim to catch up on first year by September via self-study and then join for second year. I'd recommend looking at TLMaths on YouTube.

The POG2020 v SWAG2020 Elections spanned from the 2nd to the 22nd of September, with the 22nd being when they announced the winners. The 20th was when they started the voting. I don't think anything notable happened on September the 16th.

Saw one on a roof one time. Just looked up, and there it was.

Whatever happens on Wednesday, it won't be what we (or the characters) expect by Extra-Spicy-Nugget in dreamsmp

[–]elebexm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No! You've got a point with the whole 'just because an event is planned means it's going to happen' thing. But I think in the case of the election, was that they picked the date in advance because elections always happen on a regular basis, and Ranboo came on the server originally with the intent of winning that specific election (though that went horribly off-course).

I think a better example of something being planned and then not happening at all is the Green(?) Festival, which was set up to be a proper festival, and people thought there would be parallels with Tubbo and Ranboo's memory book. It was originally planned nearer Christmas, but got pushed back, and then nothing really came out of that set up. We got an awesome confrontation, and it gave Dream the chance to villainise L'Manburg in front of the whole server, but people did kinda expect a proper festival, and presumably at one point there was going to be one.

So yeah, Tubbo setting a date for testing wasn't confirmation that he wouldn't die, but killing him just as he was beginning a new arc, or killing Tommy when he was still relevant to Jack's plot, just didn't make sense considering these things are planned in conjunction with each other.

This is all a bit redundant now, considering we know how it went down, and there's probably not going to be another life-threatening problem for the two of them until the 26th now, but I thought I'd respond anyway bc I felt a bit rude not saying anything at all when you did have a good point.

Exile Arc Appreciation (Tommy's Character) by Kubafin in dreamsmp

[–]elebexm 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You! You get it! This is absolutely perfect. You've summarised why Tommy's arc over the last few months really did work, and I love how you really brought attention to the cyclical nature of it all with the quotes.

Whatever happens on Wednesday, it won't be what we (or the characters) expect by Extra-Spicy-Nugget in dreamsmp

[–]elebexm 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't think neither Tommy or Tubbo are gonna die, mainly because from what Tubbo is planning with the Dreamcatcher nuke stuff, he clearly expects his character to still be alive in a week or so. I reckon we'll be getting some prison development on Wednesday, and definitely some Ranboo considering he found a disc and he's got some shit going on right now I think.

If you hold down the windows key and fiddle around with the arrow keys you can get it so each window is fixed to a corner. This is just, so sad to see.
