How can I create a new thing to speedrun?

I found something I'm finally good at and, sure it's odd, but I found out I could speedrun the Logitech Harmony 650 Universal Remote setup tutorial. how do I turn that into a category on this website?

It probably wouldn't be accepted onto speedrun.com since it is a "non-video-game activity", but if you enjoy speedrunning it, nothing's stopping you! In fact, I have speedran calculators in the past (or, at least, have tried to).

Ok. Thank you for answering my question. It's sad that I can't upload my run to speedrun.com. I do have one question though. How exactly do you speedrun a calculator? Thanks again.

Key word: "tried". I'm not sure if there are any (actually interesting and viable) calculator speedrun categories that are possible, but I've been trying to come up with some. A possible starting point could be trying to get the calculator to display a certain number or screen with certain restrictions, such as limiting which buttons can be pressed etc. But that's just an idea.

Also it's probably not a very viable speedrun partially because of all the different types of calculators out there

That idea is brilliant! You should totally try and do that. try and make an odd number show up by doing 1 x an even number. when you have a run, you can just send me the link to the video. pls don't think I'm stupid bc of my math. I honestly SUCK at math.

That is not a thing. Nothing is uploaded to speedrun.com. Videos housed elsewhere are linked here.
