You can put up a YouTube video straight from your phone.

You don't seem to be any worse for the wear because of it. I haven't figured out that part either, but I'm still having a good time. Are you screaming when you write things in all CAPS? Seems like you are very emotional when you do that.

I don't care if you order me to have no help but a dry video, Ezrs! Beep ypu! :x

What exactly are expecting?

How do you know the video is “dry”? Did you watch it? I’m older than you. I’d easily swear on a Bible that I don’t know how to post a YouTube video. But if I wanted to learn, I would google the question and try it out. No one has shown me. Ezra is being honest with you I believe. If you want knowledge you have to go and get it yourself. Thanks to your phone you can get that knowledge without getting out of bed.









...This very low-end phone doesn't let you go back and forth between screens :( . Furthermore, my lack of.a comfortable place to sit - with my hurting back :cry: - makes it not doable. I do 't ha e the basic clicking and dragging skills that you'd have to come to such a video with. I'd need someo e to show me basic " where you put your hands " skills - and answer liive questions. After that, perhaps I could work with just a video. I don't have the basic knowledge! :(


What you need according to you is a specialized tutor. The total hands on kind that intellectually disabled adults need. Meaning you should have always been in a care facility.

Most likely if you require that significant level of support you probably would need a caretaker to just do all that stuff for you.

I am not sure if it is loading a video onto youtube or placing a youtube video into a post that is being talked about.

If one wants to post a youtube video they can just post the link.

When "ASS-P" had a larger audience it was all about caps and lots of :x :evil:. emotes and attacking people trying to help. This would go on for about 30 pages and finally get locked.

Then he would carry on the same exact process in a new thread that that would get locked after 30+ pages.

That is called pasting a link.

Like so: https://youtu.be/tRx8N7mJU9g

On my cheap phone when a youtube video is playing there is an icon that says "share".

You click that and another icon pops up that says copy link text.

Then you paste the copied link into a post.

This as basic and simple as it can possibly get, beyond literally doing the whole three step 5 second process for someone.

Never a computer class, trial and error. I have a laptop. I would be nervous as hell trying to do this page on a phone. So in that respect, you know more than I do.[/quote]

""ASS_P"" is doing exceptionally well if he can figure out how to get a new phone up and working, and posting on an internet forum, so incredibly quickly. Considering all of the phones he loses, and the many new phones he chooses to buy to replace said stolen phones. I'm posting this from my phone. It takes me weeks, if not months, to properly figure out the workings of a new different phone. I don't replace mine very often, I can't afford to.
I would be proud of myself, if I could adapt to a new phone, and figure out things so quickly.

Congratulations ASS_P ! !! ! You put a lot of us to shame with your IT skills!! :D :D

...I am of the age that I could be Ezra's grandfather. Now, I suppose Ezra's actual granfparents learned something about computers in 80s or 90s. Their children, his parents, probably learned computers a little after that, maybe more deeply - so there was an atmosphere of knowing computers in Exra's household, likely - so it would have been more doable to teach Exrs relative competence on computers - I think it did have taken some extra effort, given there of handicapp was that, according to Ezra, he has. Somehow zi think that more was done than gelling him " Here. Watch this video and don't ask me any questions. "! :x. However. not only does Ezra say that I am not allowed to try and get any tech information beyond " Watch this video! " - he says that J am totally helpless and should have all freedom taken away from me because I would like some help in improving my tech knowledge! 8O. I think that's really hateful of you, Ezra :cry: . I am hurt by that :( .
I simply didn't run into the degree of being taught computerd at an earlier time that most others my general age, I think, have. I sort of missed it like I missed other things :(.
I don't have, as I think I said?, any videos of any kind, let alone ones I would post now if I had an opportunity. I don't have the amount of stuff or convenience/situation that would allow me to do that. I wonder if people weren't being a bit Sdpke-literal, thinking that my main thing was wanting to post a video now.
Of course, Ezra says that if I ask for help in anything at all, I should be locked away from freedom forebet :cry: .
My circumstances mean I have to stick to basic phoned. especially with. yes. all the things that have been stolen from me
With my having to get going when I get a new phone, I don't really learn what it can do much beyond bring an I
Internet machine and basic phone calls - I don't quite have the safety & situation to do that :(. - And Ezra feels I should be stage mental hospital-level locked away for desiring some help in anything :cry:.

Ezra’s not saying you should be locked away.

He’s saying that you’re smarter than you think you are.

Can’t one of your buddies in the shelter help you? I bet you’ve met some decent people there. Not all shelter residents are total crazy asswipes.

I don't read anywhere, where anyone has actually said that they want to see you locked away.

We are pointing out your capabilities.

Most of the folks on here have a lot of their own challenges, and don't have the means or the time to tutor you in person. (I am trying to "read between your lines", that seems to be what you are asking of us on here?)

A lot of kind folk have given a lot of helpful advice.
Some of us, like myself, are just self taught -learn as you go.

Last week I watched a movie from the library, "A Street Cat Named Bob" it's an incredible true story about a formally homeless man, in the UK.

Anyway, I wish you well ASS-P. We are just trying to help, in the limited way we're able to.

I think if all he writes about himself is true he is not able to take care of himself and should have been in a care facility a long time ago.

Keep in mind I am saying this as someone who can not take care of himself and will be living in a care facility.
