[TUT] Blocking porn on all devices. Give your willpower an aid! Easy streaks

You have to do what works for you. For someone like that they maybe wouldn't be able to use pluckeye, or use the nhb feature. Or maybe they would need to use a much shorter delay.

I am in the position at the moment I can have a high level of inconvenience, and I choose to, because not being able to access porn and artificial sexual stimulation is more important to me than having more convenience online.

 

that's the same as no delay.

Exactly, So it's not for everyone. maybe a minority.
At least you could delay only videos for 7 days. But then that's useless in Windows and Mac.

 

If you need a computer at home for work, need to be able to download programs, have internet access right away on these programs. I would say this would lessen the effectiveness of pluckeye, because you wouldn't be able to use a strict configuration. It would be fine if you already had all the programs you need in your allow list already. But if it was a case of all the time you just need to be able to download a new program and the internet must work on it right away, then yeah I would say this would make pluckeye much less effective for that person, because they would need to use a much less strict pluckeye configuration.

 

At least if there was a seperate allow command for websites and programs that would help to a lesse extens. You could set a longer delay for "allow program". but allow command works for both programs and websites and that is a problem.
I have a question : If I block a url: youtube.com, does pluckeye just block it in the browser or system wide ? (I'm asking in both older and newer version)

Work programs keep changing. Today it is slack. Tomorrow it will be Teams.

 

I have actually recommended that to the creator. So individual delays. I think this would be a good idea.

You can use pluck + when now+2h nhb

so this will enable nhb mode for 2 hours.

pluck + when now+1h block application/

This should block all downloads on chrome for 1 hour

 

have you recommended separate delays for uninstall, clear and factoryreset ?
Even if you do that that won't happen. I don't know if there is any feedback in pluckeye.

Do you think addicts will do that when they stumble?

 

I think those things would remain part of the main delay. But what I was recommending you could have a separate delay for most features, or sites already in your allow list. So you could have a main delay of 7 days, but the nhb feature could have a delay of 1d for example. You could have a site already in your allow list but then you could block it for a shorter delay than your main delay. This is the sort of thing I was recommending

They might if it is done in advance.

pluck + when now+5h block application/

3 hours passes, and they might think I should add block application/ for longer so I can't down load anything.

pluck + when now+10h block application/

Or you could run a schedule

pluck + when UMTWRFA0-14

pluck + when UMTWRFA15-24

This would block all downloads except for one hour from 2pm until 3pm each day.

Then if you definitely think you aren't going to need to download anything that day before it gets to 2pm

pluck + when now+2h block application/

There is many different configurations people could use.

 

In fact I think if you were blocking something everyday on a schedule you wouldn't even need to add the letters of the days of the week.

It would just be

pluck + when 0-14 block application/

pluck + when 15-24 block application/

If you wanted it for specific days you would need to also enter the letter of that day

So Sunday would be

pluck + when U0-14 block application/

pluck + when U15-24 block application/

Tuesday would be

pluck + when T0-14 block application/

pluck + when T15-24 block application/

 

All the browsers , but you can still look at youtube with others sites.
Cold Turkey blocks youtube better and on more sites , but still it is not perfect.
My way is to block words like ' video' 'tube' 'streaming' on Cold Turkey for specific times and some specific words with /flee word [word] on Pluckeye.

There is a function where you can allow supportees to change configurations instantly.
You can see it in https://u.pluckeye.net/ on your personal profile.

Personally a delay of 7 hours is enough. You have still 7 hours to undo your command!
Desire to fap is temporary usually only a few hours.
I have never relapsed for a desired change

 

Please help me with Test DPC. I have been getting an error while setting up Test DPC. Whenever I use this command:

Code:

adb shell dpm set-device-owner com.afwsamples.testdpc/.DeviceAdminReceiver

,then the CMD returns an error that I still have multiple users on my device (Error). I have removed all accounts. But nothing is working. I also tried after removing screen lock. It is a Xiaomi device. If anyone has any suggestions or any experience with Test DPC & Xiaomi Device, then please help me.

 

I think you are deviating from the main point. What I meant was , is there a time limit for youtube.com? Like 15min from 10-18 ?

Do you think an addict will think 'oh I should add block application/ for longer so I can't down load anything' and do it. Who will add all these commands for some simple block ? Instead if you know what you don't want (via negativa) and just remove those it is 1000x better than adding a delay every time and worrying about relapse (via positiva)

I don't want emulators- Done, its blocked through registry.
I only use chromium based browser. Done- its blocked through registry and CT
I hate social and only allow specific news sites. Done- its blocked using forticlient
I only use youtube for how to videos and for max 45min a day- Done- blocked using blocksi and CT
I want applications for work, teams, slack etc at various times- Done, blockers don't block.
I don't download apps from store, Done- its removed once and for all.

You were suggesting so many commands, it felt like more of defending yourself from p instead of playing offense

 

I know all these commands. In fact i was testing it after you told. I remove the extension and in fact the only use i saw for pluckeye is it blocks internet based on schedule. Even CT can do that.

 

How can pluckeye block youtube.com on all browsers. It has extensions only in chrome.

I was not talking about embedded content. If you think you will waste time watching youtube on other sites. just remove those time wasting sites completely using Forticlient.

You could be your own 'expediter'
Now to block that you have to add another delay for expedite only.
See, it is going on circles. Is the benefit of pluckeye, to block bad sites or is to make you better at using pluckeye ? Same like an IQ test will only tell you how good you are at an IQ test but not your intelligence.

if your delay is 7 days or 7 hours, doesn't it signal that you have 7 days, 7 hours to worry ? What if a user clears it, forgets about it, continues working, and surprise! He finds it is all removed. Now the hormones goes crazy. You just waited for a longer time to get that reward and you can't control that rush.
My point is to not win arguments. I just want to know if you use that type of blockers , will you be recovered forever , or should you keep using it for the rest of your life ? Because, if you think about it …. how long will you still be a member of this Forum. Why can't you recover and move on ? I contacted 2 guys 3 months ago because they were a part of an Organization mentioned in the thread. They haven't replied. They have recovered and moved on. Since many have been using it for years, all I want to know is have they recovered ?
In CT you have an option to unlock the block at a certain time. So tomorrow if you badly need to change you could set the block to unlock at 3 or 4 in the night for 5 minutes and make changes then. Or you have the random password.
you could start a 7 day full version trial add the scheduled block and save the blocklist. In that way you can use full version features in basic version.

 

Should we be molded as pluckeye says us to or should we mold pluckeye to our will ? I seems like we are being molded by technology instead od the other way around, and at least members of this forum are aware about it.
If you could remove those ways to fap from your machine, then desire will not be in the first place.
That DELAY part was introduced by psychology talk. Any addiction you see they talk about delay. As you know that almost all psychologist will not slve your problem and those self-help books are largely ineffectual. Only those who had real skin in the game, and have gone through what you have gone and recovered can help you.
Those psychologists think if they study one neuron or one addiction it applies the same for every type. They have not walked the walk. Only talking. They have delayed in recognizing p as a problem. They will study by putting an addict in an MRI and see the same response with an alcoholic or chain smoker. So they conclude its the same and apply the same. If they go though the problem, only then they will understand that the implications are much different.
I think Jon has read psychology papers and thinks that this will help.
Based on what I experimented, if you remove those completely instead of adding delay and worrying it will help. I was watching news on youtube videos during breakfast everyday and it was a time waster. So i put focus me and blocked that during that time. Now i don't watch youtube at all on that phone. Same with CT, I block it at specific times a day, and add allowance and block the rest of youtube categories. Now i use youtube to a minimum.
If you email this to Jon, he will reply giving a counterpoint instead of adding it. It will take forever to converse.

 

put it in the testdpc thread man, see there once, they have answered it.

 

I have seen it. Why would I have I asked it then?

 

can you post the second line error you got, from java.lang . Did you post it there ?

 

@xXsinnerXx, when you come back can you shift fapsecure.com to github ? You won't have to pay anything...

 

I don't want to be able to access porn and artificial sexual stimulation online, it's done through pluckeye.

Pluckeye works better than any other blocker by a mile in my opinion, and a lot of other peoples opinion.

Just look at our two situations. You're constantly trying to find something else to keep you away from porn, constantly trying to find other things you can do with your configuration. But why are you constantly trying to find other things? Because you clearly are not happy with your blocking configuration. You clearly want your blocking configuration to be more efficient.

But why am I not searching for another thing for my blocking configuration? Because my blocking configuration is working, I don't need anything else.

Pluckeye does work. You're posting a lot of nonsense saying pluckeye doesn't work, where is in actual fact it is helping a lot of people.

What you're doing clearly isn't working. Because if it was you wouldn't be constantly posting on here trying to improve your blocking configuration.

You want a high level of convenience online, but you also want a strict blocking system to block you from porn. The two don't really go together.

 

They work , That's why I posted those configuration.

Then why are you still in this forum.... for 2 years @ 30 yrs

I'm not trying to win arguments here. The only thing that matters is whether you have recovered or not. I just found out that you were using pluckeye in windows so I wanted to know about your configuration but when I found out you didn't have admin rights, then I though if I were you its better not to own a PC with that config.
Maybe your profession doesn't require it or maybe you are unemployed. What matters is whether you have recovered using pluckeye. And with your tone about pluckeye and your presence in this forum, im wondering whether you are contradicting yourself.
So if you have been using pluckeye, all I want to ask is why are you still active in the forum ?

maybe with your type of config.
If you mean that you have to use pluckeye for a while with shorter delay and then when you are comfortable you need to extend it, then specify it please

I just finished improving
