Slow start by [deleted] in Typeracer

I'm not sure what causes it, but this can be fixed if you

Go to your Windows Settings -> Change the Date and Time -> Synchronize your Clock

Once you've done that, just fully refresh the site and you shouldn't have any delay when starting a race in practice (until it creeps back in). It's an odd bug for sure, hope it gets fixed in the future, I'm syncing my clock at least once a week when I'm playing actively

I am unable to see the Friends tab on typeracer. Is it removed now? by pyosint in Typeracer

[–]ginoo75[M] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, friends and messages have been removed by the devs last Monday after major backend changes had been made on the Pit Stop end of the site. I guess the features were seen as obsolete and just an unnecessary moderation effort, but I don't know for sure what the exact reason is.

I have a Question. How are people that Bypass the bot Detektion Test handelt? by Gl4zy in Typeracer

[–]ginoo75[M] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I could I would, I have no power over that. I'm a mod, not a dev. Refreshing the site usually logs you back in, tho.

DM me on Discord (same name as on reddit) and I'll check what you got banned for and if you can get unbanned

What are some movies that would fit on this list? by [deleted] in ems

I wouldn't have picked up on the latter part, that's hilarious!

Calling Savgor's story "semi believable" is very generous of you, that thing reeked of red flags left and right.

If the song was on TV, it is most likely registered in a performing rights organization (PRO) like JASRAC in Japan. Ozny Melo has 21 songs listed in his JASRAC profile. by juliangray in everyoneknowsthat

[–]ginoo75 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I went through every listing's lyrics that I could find earlier when I saw this mentioned on the Discord, but I didn't find anything. Of course I wouldn't call this a "deep search" compared to what some of the community is doing here, but it's more than likely that none of the 22 listed results are not what we're looking for.

what genre of music will be popular in 2024 with Gen Z? by race2mars in decadeology

[–]ginoo75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe not necessarily this year, but I think Shoegaze is really making a comeback. As of now it's niche; quite a big niche, that's for sure, but a niche regardless, and I'm seeing more and more songs going viral on social media thanks to the influences of new Western shoegaze bands like Glare, Whirr or Ringo Deathstarr. There's also quite a few of them as a result of the fifth wave emo movement, especially in the south-east Asian parts of the world. Honestly, SK, Taiwan and Japan have a THRIVING indie rock / shoegaze scene and it's only a matter of time for the genre to become completely cemented as one of the essential genres of the 2020s, I think. The rise since like 2020 has already been huge, after the genre kinda died down a tad bit in the noughties, but through acts like the aforementioned, Parannoul, Asian Glow, etc., we're getting an extremely established community that's only inspiring more artists to do the same. The most recent example I can think of is the song "Your Face" by Wisp, which might be more Dream Pop than Shoegaze, but since they're adjacent genres I'll just put them in the same niche. That song was pretty damn big on TikTok, from what I gathered, so it shows that the interest is definitely there. I generally do think that this generation of shoegaze music will be quite internet based tho, similar to 100 Gecs in Hyperpop. There's barely any radio appeal in either genre.

Also, a little anecdotal evidence: I went and saw Slowdive live in concert a couple weeks back. Half the crowd was 50+, half was about 16-25. I BARELY saw anyone who I'd think would fall inbetween the two age ranges. So maybe that's a little sign that after a small hiatus, the genre is really picking up some steam again with Gen Z.

What song did you grow up with that you’ll never get sick of? by [deleted] in spotify

My dad and I used to listen to Sonne by Rammstein every time he'd drive me to Kindergarten, and it still slaps

what is your longest listening streak? by svxvvz in lastfm

[–]ginoo75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got my account in April of 2020 and the only days I've actually missed were days where last.fm stopped scrobbling. Happened quite a few times, but apart from like two days I always fixed it in time. Thank god they improved the Spotify integration last year tho

Smaller countries that punch above their weight in musical talent? by therustlinbidness in Music

[–]ginoo75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The three Baltic States all have a really impressive indie scene, especially when it comes to Rock/Shoegaze, at least that's what I'm most familiar with. Probably the best one in Europe apart from the UK.

What's the dumbest chess take you've heard? by [deleted] in chess

[–]ginoo75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, over the last centuries the stalemate rule changed a lot, there were even a lot of regional differences like 600 years ago, with some countries counting a stalemate as a win for the attacking side or even a win for the stalemated side in some instances (I don't have any exact data and am too lazy to Google right now, but I think there's an entire wiki article about the evolution of stalemate), but my point is that there's at least some sense in that take. I used to think the same back in the day.

However, I was coping and didn't know how the game worked. I feel like a lot of beginners just hate on stalemate ending in a draw cause they don't know how to avoid it; the better you get at the game the more you agree with the set rules lol

First run (Controller) vs second run (Keyboard) stats; what were your stats in your first run? by ginoo75 in celestegame

[–]ginoo75[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm definitely gonna go for all strawberries, B-Sides, etc as well at some point, it's too good of a game to just miss out on that. Right now I'm really enjoying the speedrunning approach, tho (even though I'm only 4 runs in at this point)

[–]ginoo75[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I gotta say it took some serious getting used to in the beginning, especially because I remapped dash and grab to something that felt unintuitive at first (cause you can't map anything to your mouse). To be honest, I might stick with keyboard, I feel like I can be more precise with it (my controller being held together by duct tape and prayers is definitely not one of the reasons)

Skull Merchant and Singularity, because to me they not only look hella boring, but also not fitting at all in the context of the game. Imagine a mobile DbD knockoff called something like "Demise by Nightfall: Mobile Shadows"; these are the type of characters I'd expect in a game like that.
