Hands on time
Write things down that are harder to memorize
Good sleep

So writing down the things I don't understand is a good way to memorize things. Like an example I am not that good at JavaScript, so I should write it down and the description for what the code does.

I have to get better at sleeping.

Just really boring clichd stuff that never sounds like the magic answer people want.

Regular exercise, good diet, plenty of sleep, effective study routines with proper breaks and reinforcement alongside commitment to learning.

There's no 'hack your brain for instant results'. Whatever anyone says on social media.

The bolded part is the part I need to get better, I take long to fall asleep and sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night.
I need to get better at taking breaks, normally I study until I am tired.

Hands on work.

Would that help in learning the material and getting the qualifications faster?

I saw a good job, but I can't apply due to lacking the qualifications needed.

Just as the topic says, what is the best way for the brain to learn everything faster? I need to get qualifications faster, to be able to apply to good jobs that pays good money.

Facebook has many adverts that relies on false advertising, they constantly show idiots losing in the fake mobile games. This is Google again spamming their false adverts.

Imagine paying for premium.

YouTube made their adverts garbage on purpose, just so people gets fed up and pay for their Premium service. Basically YouTube caused a problem, just so they can make money.

People shouldn't pay for YouTube Premium, that is rewarding YouTube for being a awful company.

YouTube has a report and block advert button, but that doesn't do anything. I pressed report and block the advert about 100 times, yet that same advert appeared. It was clearly false advertising, but YouTube took no action.

Google failed to stop people from using software to stop adverts, now Google is going after people that shares their Premium account with other people.

Google are really pro false adverts and evil adverts.

YouTube cracks down on Premium Family sharing with non-family users
Some YouTube Premium users are getting emails from YouTube about illegal account sharing.

If youre paying for a YouTube Premium account, you need to be extra careful going forward. According to initial reports, Google is apparently taking increased action against account sharing, and the company has reportedly already sent some emails to account holders who are sharing premium benefits with people who dont live in the same household.

According to YouTubes official guidelines, this has been prohibited since 2023, back when Netflix introduced stricter rules against password sharing, prompting other streaming services to follow suit.

There have also been repeated reports of YouTube cancelling cheap subscriptions from abroadwhich were often subscribed to using a VPN servicewithout warning. This is particularly annoying for anyone who would otherwise be unable to afford YouTube Premium yet is still willing to pay YouTube something for the privilege of premium features.
14-day deadline

Affected users who receive an email from YouTube are apparently informed of a 14-day deadline. After this period, all premium features (such as ad-free viewing and offline downloads) will be cancelled, regardless of how much time actually remains on the subscription.

The YouTube account itself will apparently not be blocked. Theres only talk of blocking the family membership. Presumably, all users (except for the account holder) will be banned if YouTube detects a violation of the household rules.
YouTube checks your location

According to YouTube, it uses location checks with IP addresses and GPS every 30 days to check whether users on a premium plan are in the same household. The respective region is also compared with the account settings in order to expose pricing arbitrage from abroad.

This procedure isnt yet 100 percent foolproof, as there are still many users who share their premium plans but havent yet been caught. Conversely, its also possible for legitimate family members to be inadvertently classified as non-household members if theyre away for too long (e.g., due to traveling or studying).
What you can do

If you receive such an email from YouTube but havent actually shared your account beyond your household, you can prevent the account block by contacting YouTube support. If you can prove that all users are in the same household, YouTube should lift the block.

Otherwise, if youve been caught out, you may want to consider adjusting your subscription. Whereas YouTube Premium Family costs $22.99/month, you might prefer to go individual with YouTube Premium Lite for just $7.99/month. For reference, individual YouTube Premium costs $13.99/month.

The fact that these false ads are legal says something about the state of society.

True there should be laws that prevents false advertising. There are games that claims they don't have adverts, yet it has adverts.

I wonder if the false advertising started with iPod Touch/iPhone or Android phones.

This was the good old days, when there was no false advertising mobile games.

Tyranthraxus posted...

Years ago.

What's more funny though is that somewhat recently, people started noticing how many were disappointed that the games didn't match the ads and started making games based on those fake ads lol

I know these games that people made into real PC games:

• Arrow a Row
• YEAH! YOU WANT "THOSE GAMES," RIGHT? SO HERE YOU GO! NOW, LET'S SEE YOU CLEAR THEM!
• YEAH! YOU WANT "THOSE GAMES," RIGHT? SO HERE YOU GO! NOW, LET'S SEE YOU CLEAR THEM! 2
• LISTEN UP! WE TRIED TO MAKE THOSE GAMES EVEN MORE EXTREME! SOME THINGS HAVE TO BE LEARNED THE HARD WAY!

Those are the names of the games.

I am curious when exactly did company start false advertising mobile games? When did they start having idiots loses to simples games and they started creating fake demo for people to try out, when the demo isn't anything like the game.

UnsteadyOwl posted...

Throwing up some shovelware and falsely advertising it works, at least if the goal is to make some quick money. Making a good game takes more time and effort and then they'd probably still have to advertise it for people to even know it exists.

For mobile gaming to get better Apple and Google would have to care about making it better and it seems like they don't.

Google they actually protect the frauds that does false advertising, they only attack people that use software that blocks adverts. Sadly for Facebook app there are no software to block it.

As for Apple I don't know what they think about adverts or if they have taken any action.

That's ridiculous, I mean how can it be the garbage and loser platform when I dont even play Mobile games?

I don't play mobile phone game, yet these mobile phone adverts appears. I don't search for them and even block them, but still nothing they won't stop appearing.
They appear all the times in Facebook an example.

Free to play mobile phone they are full of adverts that false advertise and idiots has no common sense at all, since they lose to the simplest of tast.

Mobile phone = false advert and show the worst possible games
Console = shows the best games
PC = shows the best games

True there are too much shavelware, to the point that those are the only games that gets advertised. However false advertising is a big issue, since they pretend to be big games when in reality it is shavelware.

What you see in the advert isn't what the game is like.

Just imagine if they actually advertised their top tier games and get rid of every advert that false advertising, that would be a huge improvement. Then people wouldn't consider mobile gaming to be a garbage and loser platform.

Mobile phone has Nintendo, Sony, Square Enix, Namco Bandaid, etc games which they don't advertise. Instead they advertise the bootlegs, unlicensed and unofficial games that has no shame in false advertising.

That is one of the best browser, Google is a bad company.

GhostFaceLeaks posted...

Google likely wouldn't care. Supposedly they were warned by a ton of companies to keep adblock because of the viruses and ads yet they still chose this. They won't care if they have to ban users for using adblock if it means fighting it.

Then the law should get involved, if Google does decide to do it. Google shouldn't be allowed to get away with it, if it does happen.
It is bad that Google is getting away with it, by doing their best to disable software to block adverts.

GhostFaceLeaks posted...

They will inevitably make adblock a bannable offense. It's the next logical step.

That would be really bad if that happens. If that does happen, then there should be legal action on those website allowing frauds, false advertising, inappropriate and malicious adverts to appear.

Gaming phoes are really expensive, if it cost over $1000.
Although I don't see the point of a gaming phone, when good mobile phone games never gets advertised at all. They only advertise the lowest garbages games, that involves false advertising.

Everyone has different needs for their PC, they don't need to go overkill if they are not playing intense or the latest games.

Now if they plan to play intense games and play at their highest setting, then they need to consider going overkill.

Basically a person should get for what they need.

The_Wheelman1 posted...

This was bound to happen eventually. Our comfort means nothing to them. Money is everything.

Google allows the adverts to be as bad as possible and even break laws, yet they don't get involved.
Goole only attacks people that wants to block those bad ads.

Google allows mobile phone games to be filled with garbage and misleading ads.

Google protect frauds, scammer, malicious ads and false advertising. Google only cares if a person uses a software to block adverts, those are the people Google attacks.

YouTubers gets punished for breaking any rules, but adverts they suffer no consequences for breaking any rules.

why would they want to restore the stones they are dangerous

The Infinity Stones while dangerous, it can be used for good purpose. Dr Strange was really good at using the Time Stone.

Here is the question, who is at fault for mobile phone marketing being so bad?
Is it Google or Apple fault?

My assumption is Google is at fault.

"Blocking ads and piracy are the same, you dudes who are against piracy but use adblockers are no better than me!"

False advertising is illegal, yet these companies doesn't do anything to those ads.

Companies should take action on these adverts:

• Frauds
• Scammer
• Malicious
• False advertising

We use adblocker to avoid those adverts, since that they don't do anything to them.

There are company that steals IP and copyright from other companies in the adverts, yet nothing happens.

People are not in the wrong for using software to block adverts, when these sites are incompetent or protects inappropriate and illegal ads.

Why didn't the Avenger use the Infinity stones to restore the Infinity stones, before taking them back to their time line?

When it comes to advertising, it looks like mobile phone tries to compete on who makes the worst game, who lies the most and who lose in the most ridiculous way possible in the ads.

Consoles and PC they advertise the best game possible, they try their best to be number 1. They basically try to outdo each other.

This is why console and PC will always be the king, when it comes to gaming.

Console and PC = shows 10/10 games
Mobile phone = shows 1/10 games or fake/10.

This is also one of the fundamental principles of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), of which google is a member. Respecting user autonomy and allowing them to use content blockers of any kind.

If that is true then any websites blocking software to block adverts are in the wrong. Plus allowing inappropriate ads, false advertising, scammer and malicious ads is wrong.

I wish there was ways to block adverts in mobile phone games, there are games that doesn't work without a internet connection.

Why are we forced to watch frauds and idiots in the adverts.

MarshMellow posted...

One is illegal for a reason and the other isn't. Ads can be triggering and we have no control over them. If youtube or whomever doesn't like it then go to strictly pay to watch models like some of those paywalled news websites.

False advertising is illegal, yet they do nothing to those adverts.

So people use adblocker to not see those adverts that are clearly false advertising.

• Are there quality control ads in their website?
• Do they have a block function or hide function to stop seeing ads that we have no interest?
• Does the block or hide function work?

If the answer is no, then it isn't piracy to use adblocker. People don't want to see frauds, idiots and inappropriate ads in their site.

I really want to stress this. If your ultimate goal is to make money, even as a side hustle rather than your primary source of income, you're going to fail. You're potentially looking at years without any substantial earnings.

You are going to start with an audience of 0. If you're lucky and play your cards right, you'll hit a consistent single-digit viewership within a couple months. Anything beyond that is luck of the draw no matter how good you are as a streamer.

I know a YouTuber that only gets in the single digits viewer, how much money does the YouTuber make?

I don't plan to be a full time streamer, I don't plan on quitting my job to stream.
As for my schedule for when to stream, I have to think about it.

So maybe I will use stream as a side thing to make money, not the main source of income.

So I need to be entertaining to get viewers.

I am curious to know, is streaming a good way to make money? Like an example doing live stream while playing games.

If the TC is struggling financially, then I recommend not to get the Switch 2. First he should focus on the things that he needs, then he can focus on the things that he wants.
There is no rush in getting the Switch 2, it isn't like it will be too late to buy the games later on. If the TC has other system, it is better to play those instead. Remember we don't need to have the latest system to have fun.

Remember just because you can buy the Switch 2, it doesn't mean you should if that will cause financial trouble.

That would be really good, if we could learn things while we sleep.

I am curious people that post video in Facebook, so they make money? There are times I see the same video posted in their other alt accounts.

So there is nothing to reduce being tickles without doing something extreme. It is too bad they don't put the area to sleep, like how dentist use anesthesia to numb the area.

It's not really any different from 90's video game ads, tbh. Just with CG instead of a guy in a Crash Bandicoot suit with a megaphone.

They show real gameplay, there is no lie in their game.

Mobile phone what they show doesn't exist in the game at all. Fake demo exist, so people play them but doesn't exist in the real game.

My point is for mobile phone it is like they are battling on who is the biggest fraud and idiots, while for consoles they are battling on who has the best games.

If consoles treated their games like how mobile phone does, then no one would buy their console.

As for the Eshop as long as they don't false advertise or remove games that false advertise, then I don't see the problem.

divot1338 posted...

Arent you just describing game ads that dont show in game footage and instead only have cutscenes?

Mobile phone they actually show gameplay footage, that doesn't exist in the game. Mobile phone even has demos of gameplay, that doesn't exist in the real game also.
They even lie about being able to select those gameplay in the menu, when that doesn't exist in the game.

Mobile phone they like about these things:

• Fake gameplay
• Fake cutscenes
• Fake story
• Fake trailer
• Fake menu

If the consoles company decides to stop advertising their top tier games and instead spam the worst game possible games along with false advertising and idiots losing to the easier game, would that kill the console?

Basically would console be dead if the company did the same as what mobile phone platform does?

There are several debilitating conditions that eliminate sensation in the extremities but I dont think thats really practical.

Maybe you could get someone to restrain you while they tickle your feet. Perhaps that could make it less ticklish?

I don't think physiotherapy has anything to restraint someone.

foot fetish?

A person goes to physiotherapy for when one has injuries or pain.

Let say if the physiotherapy does massage on the foot, is there anyway to reduce or to stop being ticklish?

I wonder if it is the parents that taught the kid or if there are schools to teach a kid from 1 year old and before.

The kid also knows how to write.

I can imagine teaching at that age requires a lot of patience.

The kid knows how to do multiplication which is incredible.

I wonder how he managed to learn maths at that age.

I was wondering are there any shop in London that accepts second hand US games? I know Cex only accepts UK Pal region games.

What is the difference between a college and a university? I always wondered that difference.
