Most of the time I pause YT when I need to leave the room. Just one button to mute the sound and the ads are played to the thin air. Shall I add that I am no slave to consumerism and I don't remember whether I purchased anything from the brand ads. I buy a generic cola from the supermarket, cheap oats instead of branded, got some garments from a local discount store, never installed Temu app... I think most people pause the stuff because they do something else for the time being. Totally pointless action from YT.

Has he actually leased it for a year or just paid for a one day tour and pretend for the social media?

What times we are living now... everybody wants a quick buck for doing nothing much, and having fun at it, at best. Stupidity ruleeez! More and more folks become 'content creators', adding nothing much to the society, often just bitching about others and ramping up negative emotions, similar to the doom scrolling. What has become of us?

Mirror is a tabloid and it will scrap the bottom of the barrel for content on their pages. Please don't be like them.

Too frequent consumption of fast food, aka junk, has been linked with junk IQ, several points lower than normal. This is the prrof. Entitlement, lack of emotional control, unable to foresee consequences of their actions, impulse action... you name it.

My bike used to have a dynamo at the front to power the lights. It also made it harder to pedalwhen on and was making a similar sound. Aaah, years of my youth...

He was a 14 yo teenager, with a weak spot. If not the AI, someone else would likely exploit that weak spot sooner or later. Teenagers do take their lives over emotional matters, without manipulative AI. Saying that, the company producing this level of deception do carry a share of blame. And people need education to not fall for it, because it may be hard to keep the AI on the leash. Bag of fleas.

We have Wendy's in the town, but I have never been there. Not a fast food person, I cook and prepare my meals most of the time, being frugal. What do you eat for lunch and dinner? I would only have a burger for breakfast in my younger years, when I did eat some junk and after the disco night. I didn'tdo it, but that would be the time I would. Had a lovely wholesome porrige this morming, with some milled flax seeds, honey, raisins, pinch of salt, and poured the cooked goo over frozen berries. They thawed fast and cooled the oats at once so I could eat it faster. It kept me going for the next 5 hours. No sign of a metabolic syndrome by far. But I know tnat even slim people gorging on junk can develop diabetes over the years. The fat it makes you store in and around your liver is hard to get rid of. Beware.

I am probably old, I have difficulties comprehending how can anyone put their hard earned cash into some anonymous code online...

The fact the joke never considered the situation he was breaking the law on the camera... maybe Michael had enough of him and he decided to let him go down with this evidence? Never heard of this joke, so cannot tell.

Man I like your videos but watching you I cannot unsee that you look like on saline, with that white earphone wire connected to the mic. LOL

One question I would have: none of you who promoted this service noticed that this particular affiliate link was bringing you next to no money? Or cannot you even track it in your books? I would want to know what sponsorship was performing well and what wasn't, if I was in your position.

I love your commentaries, but sometimes I think you just spread the ideas to more morons to take up the challenge themselves. Reason has no impact on them.

Dash cam and 2 sd cards to quickly swap if you need to preserve evidence and keep recording.

Subscription allows all that AI generated crap thrive on YT also, including producing tons and tons of carbon by the servers hosting all this crap and then cooling the servers. Hence my computer says No! No subscription. If I cannot watch YT without ads, I'll find another place of entertainment and I know I'll won't be alone. Millions of us, disgusted by the ads and scams. NO Reich is too big to fail. There will be no YT one day.

There will be more cases like this. With the spread of social media and fakery online, influencers using filters and pretending wealth, teenagers, even adults, increasingly have self esteem issues, unable to discern reality from virtual fakery. Just another face of natural selection. Be smart or be outsmarted, at your peril.

Media (and individuals) are desperate for attention and money coming out of it (in some cases). I am glad I successfully ignore all these stupid time wasters and only dip in here and there, often not even finishing videos I start watching.

The planet is overpopulated. I call it natural selection. No wonder women outlive men.

There are terrabytes of content created every day worldwide and that needs to be stored on servers, which have limited capabilities and need to be developed and growing as we speak. That costs money to run and purchase, too. I understand that bit. But by aggressive advertising they only put people off watching content without adblock. Every 5 minutes content is interrupted by lengthy adverts, even in a middle of a sentence, which I find totally unpalatable and annoying. I can tolerate a 5 seconds ad at the beginning at most, otherwise I skip it however I can. The advert payout to the content creators is pitiful, nonetheless, so someone else is cashing in from all this. The ever growing content creation should be self-sustaining with more short adverts at the beginning, to cover the expenses of ever growing storage capacity. Paid subscription doesn't suit everyone who don't spend a lot of time on Youtube, so this option should not be enforced by endless adverts every few minutes. If Youtube disables people watching the content without adverts, it will mean no help to the creators, because even people with adblock comment on stuff, share the links elsewhere, and help creators this way. Disabling viewing content without adblock will penalise the creators the most.

If I won't be able to use internet without adblockers I'll go back to my old dvds, cds, books, arts. For now, since there were warnings chromium browsers will have adblockers blocked, I hope for Firefox be my refuge, and even migrating my email away from gmail. Just in case they went that far as disabling the service for those still able to bypass the ridiculous ads.

Came to this again, seeing I have been here 4 months ago... just YESTERDAY youtube disabled me viewing stuff with adblock. On Firefox. I moved to Brave. If they disable it there, somebody will come with more sophisticated adblock, or I move to some other platform. Completely agree that the ads are too intrusive and even dangerous on many websites. I would be willing to pay £1 per month for the service and if they reduced the fees, more people would chip in, making it better for everyone. If a content creator si good, they get paid other ways, directly by the appreciating viewers. I am not willing to pay for something that I got suggested and it is crap overall when I start watching it. Too much crap on Youtube, AI generated content, lies, deception, crap crap crap. Senseless content gets more attention than quality content. Clickbaits, mass generated content with factual errors. Annoying. I can also go back to books. Sorted.

I think authorities must intervene and stop this practice. These fools are getting deeper and deeper into debt. Bad finances fuel crime. The society needs to be protected from crime.

As you say how could even the dumbest member of his audience think it was a good idea: HE was the dumbest member of someone's audience who thought it was a good idea...proof.

As someone who has never touched crypto I find it entertaining following the trail how awful this whole concept is. How those who tried to enrich themselves at the expense of others (Tate was right back then) often get burned themselves. If you were lucky, be thankful, for others losing money, leech, most others just lost. There is no product behind this, just shady practice that value grows by others putting money into it and trust it. And bobody guarantees anything in this crypto world. And hackers are after you with info stealers to clear your precious grab, and they often succeed. So don't celebrate yet, that you outsmarted others.

Where I cannot use an ad-blocker, I just don't watch, only read the comments, like here. Quite fun, too. I stop the video right after the first couple seconds and when tired of reading, I move on to another. Does that mean any difference for the creator or youtube itself?

Your face ages simply by the skull being subjected to gravity, gradually changing shape, including your eye sockets. Your cartillage might keep growing and, most importantly, your telomeres will keep shortening, putting an ultimate limit to how many times your cells can multiply and renew. Unless you are HeLa cells. Those have been dividing endlessly for decades and might keep doing so as long as they are kept alive. But you don't want them in your body, I can guarantee you that.

Time is moving at a different speed... you are getting old, that's it! 😂

FT has a terrible record on reporting on the RuSSo-Ukrainian war. They should stick to the finances.

You don't need to feel isolated to prefer solitude and online interaction. Introverts are pretty happy to withdraw from the society and entertain themselves via other means.

Free donuts... blah... came to a stage in my life when I wouldn't go somewhere to eat a donut even if they paid to me for that. Trying to cut out junk from my diet, mostly successfully, and those corpulent women looked like they should do it too, for their own benefit.

WTF is this person?

Yeah, I saw your face among those others on that video today. Honey? Just the name sounds suspicious. More like a Hone trap. Never used that extension. I go and manually seek rather the brand's own web site. That way I saved at least 20% from what they traded on scamazon on my latest purchase of a particular product. I sometimes seek coupon codes and they mostly don't work. Dunno how they can publish that last used just a few hours ago. Was it another such extension feeding back to the coupon website, regardless of whether it worked or not? At least I guess they paid you ine-off sum for the sponsorship?

Looks like Tate brothers have a competition in their Real world you can hold a share of future in... All I can see is that those who paid now to have it, will be haunted by guilt for the rest of their lives (will have a share in the future of it) when they realise how stupid they were pretty soon.

I don't drink a Coke brand (plenty cheaper alternatives in supermarkets, I don't taste the difference), I filter ads wherever possible, I often make a purchase online as a guest, not bothered with creating an account...Why would I want to create an account HERE? Blah!

Simple laws of physics: You cannot be a successful businessman of the fElon's caliber, tweet every 15 minutes and be a gamer on that level he claims to be all at once. Besides, he sounded very unconvincing when he supposedly confirmed he was one of the best 20 players. You could see it on him he wasn't being honest.

Just an idea: one could generate a concept via AI and then draw it or paint it by hand. That could MAYBE be considered as art. Can he do it?

Just a note: those ads aren't there to make you go buy it now, although the companies would be very happy if you did. And some will order Mac after or even while watching the ad. The prime aim is to brainwash you, to imprint the product into your subconscious mind, so when go to the shop and decide what you'll buy, you'll buy that product. Just good luck with me. Bought a box with 10 figs, for just £4 in Tesco on Friday, because fruit is my sweet fix. I haven't seen ads on fresh fruit on its own, and no amount of ads will make me buy Dunkin' donut. Besides, their price covers all thoose annoying ads. My wallet says Noo. I consciously avoid overpriced branded products, seeking cheaper alternatives.

I haven't followed this guy so I cannot tell whether it was a social experiment or not, but he could really die while that obese. Was it really a social experiment or did he make it look like one just recently, to make a bombastic comeback? What is he going to cash on now?

At least you can monetise your awful experience. I quit watching this kind of production whatsoever that comes out new. Haven't watched a recent Hollywood movie for years. Documentaries are far more entertaining for me than some compilations that don't make any sense when you start paying attention to details. I mean some proper documentaries, not the AI compiled 💩 on youtube.
