To use this script, you need to have Tampermonkey or a similar user script manager installed in your browser. Once installed, simply copy and paste the code into a new user script and save it. The script should automatically run on YouTube Shorts pages and disable the spacebar scrolling behavior.
Note that this script may not work if YouTube changes its code in the future. If that happens, you may need to update the script accordingly.
