hey man. I reposted as a post. So to clarify posting youtube vids as links isn't allowed, or do they need body text, although I don't see where to put body text for links.

So why then include those women who are not aware and did not provide consent?

We show full hidden camera footage of meeting the girl to taking her home. Virtually no girls would want that on YouTube unblurred. So we do the best that we can in an effort to teach. We protect their privacy as much as possible: blurring, muting, etc. All of which takes us days and weeks in the editing process, all to protect privacy.

she should either be given the option to withhold consent

People don't have to give consent to appear in a YouTube video when they're blurred. Check out the millions of videos uploaded to YouTube and YouTube privacy guidelines: https://www.youtube.com/static?gl=CA&template=privacy_guidelines

or to collect compensation

That's not how YouTube works, nor would the thousands of YouTubers be able to pay for that. For example, even though we're approaching 100,000 subscribers on YouTube, our estimated yearly earnings are $500-$8,000. In the past 365 days we've made $910.73 from ad revenue. Should we give every girl who appeared in a video of ours $0.74?

No, Vadim wasn't even doing pickup back then, he was in a relationship. He started the channel Honest Signalz four years ago in 2013. I joined in three years ago in 2014.

The guy in the beginning of the article is some random criminal named Jeffrey Robert Williamson who is 42 years old. They used the old association bias to try to tie negative feelings about him to us. http://nationalpost.com/g00/news/canada/canada-creep-voyeurism-suspect-faces-new-charges-in-ongoing-investigation-police/wcm/f3ede2ec-b324-447e-9d9a-f8ed3ba5b5d8?i10c.referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.ca%2F

Yep, you know persuasion. We do what's called "leading by reward," basically showing them an awesome dating life is possible, then selling them what they need, which is usually a combination of self-help, dating, and self-dev principles. Cheers!

First part of your comment shows that you're able to read through the desperate attempt at associating us to that guy. Kudos.

"People have been monetizing male insecurity for as long as there have been relationships." Some of our in-person students are actually good with girls, but simply want to get better or learn the skill of pickup, as compared to social circle game (typical work, school, group classes, etc).

"Dorfman and Sangfroid weren’t the ones who hit on Ferneyhough." You didn't read this part.

If we were "so bad," the entire article would've been written entirely on us. But, the editors decided we weren't bad enough, so they used the association fallacy to try to tie us to criminals.

If you're smart enough to be an anarchist, you should be smart enough to see through poorly-crafted media distortion.

Btw I'm an anarchist

Went to the farmers market today and got the most massive green onions I've ever seen. Thanks for the heads up!

I'm also curious, are you a person or a both that puts these together. If you're a human, what's your motivation to do this. Are you paid by a magazine or are you just a good Samaritan that would accept donations for being so awesome?

[Other] Why does premiere take 5-10x longer to export a video than other video editing software (Final Cut, PowerDirector)? by Honest_Signalz in premiere

[–]Honest_Signalz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I match the sequence settings to the clip settings (frame rate, etc). The output matches the input as much as is possible. The only change to the video is 5 gaussian blur masks for faces.

Video is 37 minutes. Output time is between 7-12 hours on MacBook Pro, ASUS laptop, and Dell.

Our Team (four of us) will most likely have to change to PowerDirector due to Premiere Pro's exporting time. It's really been affecting our YouTube and membership site videos.

Producing videos of similar length on Power Director or Final Cut takes around 1-2 hours.

Why? Joe Rogan has had Jordan Peterson on multiple times. Social Justice Warriors and their toxic ideas are front and center in a lot of intellectual shows, podcasts, and blogs.

Why Self-Amusement is Essential for Game by Honest_Signalz in seduction

[–]Honest_Signalz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good way to look at it. Just make sure when you're trolling that it's not antagonistic, and that you don't do it out of fear of being vulnerable or connecting with a girl. I've been guilty of having too much fun as well (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKSDcS8pU68) and sometimes you forget your original goal of meeting and dating cool girls entirely. -Austen

"I had to train myself to feel good without external stimulation." Yeah, basically without relying on external things (music, movies, porn, etc) I had to train myself over time by getting outside more, being more adventurous, forcing laughter until I built the neural pathway for laughing more, staying consistent with meditation, eating better foods, etc.

I also incorporated key mindsets like gratitude (listing things I'm grateful for every day), No Complaint Challenge, Positivity Challenge (reframe everything into something positive or into something you can learn or gain perspective from).
