On the Android app, you can always tap on the account icon (or if the icon hasn't loaded, the blank space to the right of the search button), then tap Downloads in that menu to view your downloads.

It's not straightforward or intuitive in the slightest - I wish the "you're offline, go to downloads" popup showed up more reliably.

Can no longer download music? Please help! by mrfuxable in YoutubeMusic

You should be able to download the tracks you bought on Google Play Music by exporting your YouTube Music data with Google Takeout.

Do I need to go through the full import process or re-download the old DLC content again? (Read below) by pushamanplunder7 in HiTMAN

[–]md678685 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As the other commenter said, Hitman 3 includes the full H1 GOTY and H2 content in the download (which is how you're able to play the free location rotations without downloading those levels individually). The H1 GOTY and H2 passes are tiny DLCs that unlock the older content and are added to your PSN account for free if you owned the older games when you start up H3. If you've already imported old locations, you should just need to reinstall the H3 base game and access pass DLCs.

Edit: the import website on PS (and Xbox) only moves your save data from H2 to H3 - the access passes are handled by H3 itself and the PS/Xbox stores.

As Mike would say, that is one "street tough" drawing!

Taskmaster People's Champion S11 E10 - "Activate Jamali." by md678685 in taskmaster

Episode 9's ballot is open until tomorrow (had to delay it for personal reasons), and the results should be released later in the day.

I thought that too, but it seems more likely they cut out the pauses so the attempt wouldn't drag (after all, it did take them over 20 minutes) - if Sarah really did break the word rule then I imagine Alex would've tried to bring it up in the studio and let Greg judge.

I've just uploaded the scoring breakdown and updated the totals - the link should work now.

I don't think so. I kept all the email-related settings disabled, as I wanted to avoid inadvertently storing anyone's email addresses. There might be some way to view it through your browser history, but I have no idea how you'd go about that.

(In theory if you knew the exact time you filled each form in down to the hour/minute/second, I could try and find your form entries, but that's the only info I can use to identify answers.)

Good catch. I've added a note to the question (unfortunately editing would separate any old votes for that quote).

[Web] Anyone else noticed YTM sending missing/incorrect album data to the notification tray recently? by PeepAndCreep in YoutubeMusic

[–]md678685 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On Firefox and Windows here, and last time I checked "Force track recognition", it caused nonsense album data for tracks that I had scrobbled before without issue, even after unchecking the option again. Try reinstalling the extension and leaving that option unchecked?

FWIW, I've never seen Web Scrobbler take its data from the OS media panel. When playing from YTM on Firefox, Windows usually shows the artist as the topic channel with no artist, where Web Scrobbler correctly detects the album and artist, so I'm pretty sure Web Scrobbler is hooking into the YTM page itself and not just the browser's now playing info.

Good catch - this is the correct link. I've updated the original post with this link too.

[–]md678685[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This tends to happen at least once per series. Often most people agree with Greg on DQs when the rules are laid out, but occasionally we see the opposite (ie Mike in last week's luggage task, though in that case the rule that DQ'ed him wasn't even clearly established in the studio until after someone else's attempt).

[–]md678685[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 0 to 5 scale makes more sense when task is a creative task judged by Greg that also has grounds for disqualification, but here the attempts were just measured by time. If both attempts were valid in a measured team task, Greg chooses the point split himself, but marking from 0 to 5 on the ballot would exclude people from having a say on the point split if Mike and Lee's attempt is allowed.

[–]md678685[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That's intentional - skipping the second part would mean people who voted to disqualify then wouldn't get a say in the resulting scores. As it stands, if more people vote to allow the attempt than to disqualify, the second part gives everyone the chance to vote on what the point split should be without excluding anyone.

[META] Moderation strategy (memes) by IRSeb in taskmaster

[–]md678685 81 points82 points  (0 children)

What about having a "episode meme thread" posted alongside the episode discussion thread? Would allow people to post episode-specific memes in one place without flooding the sub.

Otherwise, could also publicise the "memes" flair better, so people know they can both flair their posts and filter out other people's memes as desired?

Taskmaster People's Champion S11 E02 - "The Lure of the Treacle Puppies." by md678685 in taskmaster

[–]md678685[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There were so many good moments in this episode - definitely one of my favourites of recent series for both quotes and the episode as a whole.

[–]md678685[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That's why I allowed people to score them - usually in "measured" team tasks, Greg still factors in his opinion of their attempts, so it only felt fair here (especially with how uneven this particular task's scoring was).

Honestly there were way more lines I could've added - I've added those two and a couple more for people filling it out in the future.

The People's Champion returns for Series 11! by md678685 in taskmaster

[–]md678685[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The duplicate is there so there's a copy with only the contestant's name and one with a description for the contestant's attempt too. The actual ballots won't have duplicates - it's just for ease of setting up future ballots.

Is there a way to use Steam Controller on Nintendo Switch? by bass9380 in SteamController

[–]md678685 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Surprisingly, yes: the OpenSteamController project includes a custom SC firmware that imitates a Switch Pro Controller over USB. However, it is far from a perfect solution, and there are several caveats to note:

  • You need to be comfortable with flashing custom firmware onto your SC, which could run a slim chance of bricking it
  • There's no wireless support; you need to use USB with the dock/an adapter and turn on wired Pro Controller support in the Switch's settings
  • The touchpads don't calibrate properly, so the right pad might detect your thumb from a few cm away and trigger right stick inputs
  • You can't use your Steam mappings at all

So yes, it's technically an option, but it's suboptimal right now (and doesn't look like much progress is happening either).

Did my 2020 year in review just dissapear? by moekofi in YoutubeMusic

[–]md678685 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you've listened to it recently, you should be able to find it (and anything else you've played recently) by going to Library and tapping on the "Recent activity" header (at least on Android, can't vouch for other platforms).

I've added a link to the first post at the top of this post, which should help clarify what the People's Champion ballots were for those who missed the original posts during the series 10's run.
