UCL Those who are huge football fans know what UCL is. I am not a huge follower of any sport but I like to watch UCL(UEFA Champions League). It's an annual football club competition where European top-division clubs play in a group and knockout matches. It was introduced in 1955 and was known as the European cup and was known as UCL after 1992. It begins in early June and ends in late May or early June every season. Spanish clubs have the highest number of winners followed by England and Italy. Real Madrid has won it 13 times. Cristiano Ronaldo(Portugal) currently playing for Juventus(Italy) with 134 goals in 174 appearances remain the highest goal scorer followed by Lionel Messi. Last year's winner was Bayern Munich(Germany) and they won it against PSG 1-0. So the round of 16 begins today where each club plays one home match and one away match. This reminded me to write something about UCL. I will watch Barcelona vs PSG because of Messi and Neymar. I am supporting Juventus to win this year because Buffon deserves to win the UCL at least once. He has all the trophies only UCL is missing in his cabinet. Today there are two matches one between - RB Leipzig(Germany) vs Liverpool(England) Barcelona(Spain) vs PSG(France) Enjoy watching UCL with your friends and family.
Work from home So after a long time, I found some time to write here. I was learning new things and was engaged in my job. With the pandemic, I had to work from home and learned new things every day. It has taught me many things like how to manage my time and multitask(still suck at multitasking though). I have saved some money that I spend on eating outside, taxi fares, house rent, etc. I also could wear comfortable clothes and work. I came back home and have added 10 kg eating my mom cooked foods. I could do work on my own time except for meetings and updates of course. I was also less distracted as there were no colleagues and I could avoid unnecessary chats. I had also more time since it took me daily 2 hours to commute every day from work to my rent house which I utilized on learning a new programming language. The only thing I missed was sometimes the banter of colleagues. Though my productivity has increased there is loneliness as well. Sometimes a bug in code took much more time to find online but it was easy offline with the help of seniors. The internet connectivity also sometimes distracted my flow and hampered in reaching deadlines. I Will miss working from home as today is the first day to the office finally and some fun tonight. Took out my formals after a long long time and back to the rat race. Hope you guys reading have a wonderful day and I hope all of you are doing well.
Good morning guys. Great to be back. Will try to write often to improve my writing skills.
Internet Control. The invention of the Internet can be said as one of the most important inventions in the history of mankind. It has become an important part of our life and we cannot live without it. We can send big and small files, and information faster than ever. The world is at our fingertips now, thanks to the internet. We can get all sorts of information and connect with anyone. This has allowed people from anywhere in the world to get access to all sorts of information related to one's niche. But in recent times many governments, companies and some rich people want to control everything on the internet. Some companies want to control the information and want some payment to access the information they control. There are many sites, where we need to pay to access research papers done by students from many top ivy league colleges. Do you think it is right? Many people if they had access to such papers would have helped them in researching further in their respective fields. Telecom companies are increasing the speed of websites or apps they are in tie-up with and deliberately slowing the speed of some other websites. While the government wants to create a new internet in which they control everything which can be used for spreading their propaganda, block sites which may whistle blow their wrongdoings like WikiLeaks, etc. Some countries have started doing so blocking many sites too. Even some countries have made use of VPN illegal. Thus they can spread propaganda and brainwash all its citizens and stop them from seeing the truth. Are we headed to a world of internet with such restrictions and zero privacy? Many must have heard about protest against SOPA and PIPA. We need to raise our voices against such steps again if the need arises and prevent internet control to go into the wrong hands. Nobody should have control of the internet no matter who. Period. Thank you for reading.

Recommend me some topic I can write on. Not getting any idea what to write next. P.S. - Still not a good writer.
Secrets to success Everybody wants success in their life. We want to be successful in everything we do. Nobody wants to be called a loser. But how do we get success? Success can be anything from getting rich, getting a job, mastering an instrument, etc. The first thing we need to get success is having a goal. We need to have an aim and work for it and not be distracted from our goal. The second thing we need to be successful is working hard. Along with it, we need to put hard work every single day until we get success. Many people can hard work for some time then they lose their patience. We need to understand that just like we wouldn't plant a seed and then dig up every few minutes to see if it has grown. So why do you keep questioning yourself, your hard work, and your decisions? Have patience, stop overthinking, and keep watering your seeds. We may face many hurdles, but we need to face them and overcome then. Often we will have the urge to just give up when we fail too much, but we need to just hang on and we will get what we want. We need to understand that everyone has a time when they become successful. Some get success fast and some very late but the only thing common was they worked hard for their success. Sometimes luck plays a role too in achieving success. But we can do nothing about it. It is an external factor and we need to stop thinking about it. Thinking about it doesn't change anything. We need to learn to work smartly as well and put the hard work where it is necessary. We need to learn from others as well, from successful people, people who have faced failure for a long time, and people who are trying everything to achieve something and utilize it to achieve what we want. And last but not the least sometimes listening to your closed ones also helps. These are the things that will surely give you success. Thank you for reading. And subscribe.
Fake sites floating around on read.cash Hello everyone, I hope you are having a great day. I have seen many people promoting some sites here, where we can earn something just by reading, writing, joining, etc. Most of them are legitimate and I have joined a few of them. @Read.Cash has made me optimistic that we can actually earn from some website. I want to write about one recent article I saw on the website yesterday. The article was about how to earn money just by watching videos online on that site. Without giving a second thought as I am in desperate need to earn money, I just quickly signed up and started watching the videos. The sites offered that we can earn money anywhere from 2$ to 5$ just by watching a video. I just watched one video of 10 min length, which would give me 5$ and I quickly tried to transfer the amount on my account. Low and behold, there was an amount limit after only which we can withdraw our amount. Thus is struck to me it may be a scam. The site was dubious when I first saw it but choose to ignore it since I wanted money. I research a little bit and the result was obvious. So I have made such mistakes before also and yesterday I fell for another site again in hope of earning some money. Once I almost got my email account hacked for signing up on such websites. I always try not to sign up on such websites because there is a potential risk of getting your account hacked or stealing your data. So I would request everyone not to make the same mistake I did and do complete research on any website like just google about it, can show many reviews and blogs about it. So never sign up on any websites no matter who posts it here. And even you accidentally signed up anywhere, I would recommend to instantly change your email password. I don't want to mention about the user who posted here because he may either be a scammer or a naive person who wants to earn money through referral and don't know if the website is a scam. I don't want him to get his account blocked. But if I see him again posting such things then maybe he is a scammer and will surely mention him. I don't have any association with him I just saw his article while browsing through the homepage. This is the website, don't join- ****https://ymvideon.xyz/859763193409890/**** Thank you for reading. And do subscribe and comment your opinion. Have a nice day ahead.
New bug on the site @Read.cash , the notification bell is always red now without any notification.
Read.Cash - My Opinion. Hello everyone @DarkR here. I want to write something about the site we all love @Read.Cash. **Disclaimer** - This are my opinion about the things I like and things I don't like on read.cash and how this site can be improved. I don't know much about cryptocurrency and have shallow knowledge about it. A few days back I was just searching how to mine cryptocurrency. I tried the mining software with my laptop with no graphics card and I was mining at a 10-15 Satoshi per hour and the laptop became very hot. At that speed, I would have mined 1 bitcoin in like thousand years, hahaha. So I gave up the idea of mining bitcoin and was looking for an alternative. So I came across this site called read.cash and I had second thoughts about it though whether it was real or another scam. Because there are thousands of sites that are just scams. Signed up and was just browsing through the site on how to earn here. I wrote an article on Dark web series and did not know how to use the interface typed and published it using heading H1. I waited to get paid for my article but nothing happened. Then a generous guy @Telesfor tipped me for my comment. I was on cloud 9 and was happy that read.cash came out to be legitimate and finally, I can earn now. I will still remember the first day here. I am still a new member here and have just been around for a week. And please forgive me if I say something wrong regarding the site. There are many things to like on this site. You can earn bitcoin cash here by writing things that you like and people are talented, friendly, and supporting too. You get to read many good articles too and learn a lot. Being a novice writer, I am trying to learn the art of writing as much as I can from here. The website is user friendly, fast, and consumes less data too(data matters to me because I use mobile data which is limited and slow). This site doesn't have too much spam as well. The point system takes care that everyone gets some amount every day. (***But I don't know why for two days I am not getting any points yesterday it was 5.2 points and the day before yesterday was around 19 points. Please look into the matter if you can.***) Some things, I think that can improve the site are like there should be a feed that provides us all the recent and hot articles written by the people we are subscribed to and not giving us a notification when they post. It's kind of messy to find about comments, mention, etc. I know there is a filter option but I don't want to read notification one by one according to categories. And maybe show us a list of people we are subscribed to, our subscribers. We should get a notification and name of who upvotes our articles and comments as well. And maybe include tags in the article too. And maybe promote a little more so that more people know about the site. I send this site link to sign up to my friends around 20 of them but almost everyone thought it was a scam and could only convince 4 of my friends to join here. I am only talking about my region, it may vary. I am a small replaceable member of this site and I know there may be constraints and optimization problems on your side to provide these things on here or such features are already there and I did not know how to use it or find it or some request may be too foolish. So pardon me on this. Trust me, I just want read.cash to improve and see it grow fast and hit a million members soon. Last but not the least hats off to the founder and developers for implementing such a unique idea and creating such a website. Thank you for reading. And mention your ideas about what you like and what can be improved about the site we all love, in the comment section. Signing off.
Subscribe me guys and comment here I will subscribe you back. Lets know each other.
HATE Hello, everyone, this is @DarkR and I hope you all are doing good. I just want to write about something that I face every day. It is based on my view. Why are people full of hate now? People face hate because of their color, ethnicity, country, tribe, religion, etc. I don't know why it is on the rise. You open social media it is full of people fighting and hating on each other. You see people openly hating everyone not belonging to the same community. You see men hating women and women hating men. People also get hated because of their financial condition, how they dress etc. Have we forgotten that we are all humans? Differences are what make this world beautiful. Just like you won't be interested in seeing the only one variety of flower in a garden. People get discriminated against on jobs, schools, colleges, etc, and don't get equal opportunities to excel. It has an effect on their mental health too. People even get physically abused due to hate. Maybe people should learn to understand that nobody deserves hate. And I hope to see a world without hate. Also, people need to stand up when they see some hate. When we start raising voice against hate then only we can stop it from happening again. Love is more powerful than hate. People should learn to spread love more than hate. Please subscribe to me and comment here I will subscribe to you back. Thank you for reading. Thank you for the tip @Dangerous_Fly and @wakeupkitty .
Confusion on read.cash I am not complaining about anything about read.cash. I am just confused about the points system. For 3 days my highest point was 19.1. Today it is 4.7 points and I am getting only .01 dollar.🤣 I don't know if it is happening with you or not. Mind you, I have written an article every day for 3 days continuously. I am just confused and want to earn a little bit more. Previously, I got points above 100 points for 2 days. I am just not able to get that points. Maybe my article and comments are not engaging or good enough. I literally comment on all the good posts to encourage them to write. But I just don't get how these random points work. I am a fairly new user and I thought I may get more points with the coming days and I am just disappointed in myself. Read.Cash is a great site and has provided the opportunity for me to read, learn, and write. But I too want to earn the most I can. To everyone earning and getting good points please suggest me what can I do to improve. I really want to know and learn from my mistakes. I am hoping for a reply from all of you guys. Being unemployed sucks and not able to earn not even 10 cents sucks. Just tell me how do you guys get so many points. I hear people getting even 1000+ points here. Thank you for reading. Thank you @Dangerous_Fly for the tip.
Future Decisions? How do you guys take your future decisions? Do you guys go with the flow or take the risk to do something differently. Nobody can actually predict the future and on what basis should we take steps fo our future. Everyone has their own priority in life. We all want to be in the best situation in every single step of our lives. We all want to make perfect decisions always. But we cannot guarantee that the decision we take now will be right we only can know about it in the future. So we need not worry about what decisions we take now. We should take decisions based on what seems logical right now and may seem best. In the case of me, I make decisions based on intuition and what my heart says. I mostly go with the flow. Some decisions were not the best but it helped me in making another decision. Learn from the decisions you have made in the past and present and make good decisions. The future is a mystery and we need to stop making decisions worrying about it.

Can sd865 plus defeat Apple A14? Qualcomm Technologies, Inc on Wednesday launched its Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 Plus 5G Mobile Platform, a follow-on to the flagship Snapdragon 865 announced last year. The new Snapdragon 865 Plus is touted as a “truly global 5G” platform with intuitive AI. The chipset is meant to increase performance and speed for devices. Its core speed provides 3.1 GHz. It will be powered by the 5th generation Qualcomm AI Engine. Let's see what Apple A14 has to offer which will be launched this year. Asus’ ROG Phone 3 and Lenovo’s Legion series will be some of the first smartphones to be powered by the Snapdragon 865 plus processor.
I don't understand the points now. I write an article but not getting points beyond double digit while i see many getting way above 100. Can someone explain why it is happening.
Phones will not include a charger in the future. With recent rumors and lots of sites reporting that Apple iPhone 12 due to be released this year will not include a charger or EarPods in the box and yesterday saw the news that Samsung will also not include a charger in the boxes of some of its smartphones from 2021. And more companies will follow this trend very soon. Many bloggers have cited 4 reasons for doing this- profits, shipping cost, a transition to a future no port phones, and e-waste. I get it, the company wants to make a profit as much as possible. They should just cut the price of the phone so that people may be able to buy a charger with the amount they save from the price cut or provide charger or give some gift cards who don't want a charger or provide options to buy a phone without a charger or with charger. Although I get it about e-waste and being more environmentally friendly. I have unused chargers lying around. But some people may be a first-time buyer of a new phone like the iPhone which doesn't support USB c-type which is common in all other phones. Thus he needs a new charger. And most of the phones today come with fast chargers with more power so I may need to upgrade to a new fast charger that comes with the latest model. If they care about the environment maybe not include the stickers. And provide over the top specifications like 12 GB ram and 512 GB space it is unnecessary although these things are highly subjective, I don't think the phone requires this much power. Even my laptop has 8GB ram and it is more than enough. If they are thinking about the environment that's well and good but if it is another sales strategy then its not good. We have seen this strategy with the headphone jack and people buy costly Bluetooth headphones now with the headphone gone. is it another strategy to sell slow wireless charger, we will know soon. The consumer should be provided an option, period.
A note to myself Hey, buddy, there are moments in our life where we get stuck with something and suffocate to come out of that. And these moments may again come. It may be a toxic relationship, breakup, financial issues, depression, health problems, family responsibilities, and many many more. You may lose all hope to live and plan for your future. You spend endless time on social media for no reason. Whatever you do, you feel like you are forced to do that. You start to learn a new thing and after a few days, it becomes boring. You feel like talking to someone about how you feel but you stop because they will laugh at you when they know about your feelings. You don't like being surrounded by fake friends but that's all you got. You doubt you have any real friends who genuinely care about you, as you care about everybody you know. You apply for jobs you aren't interested in because you are unemployed and stop being a burden to your family. You get hurt often. You feel like nobody cares about you. Hang in there, buddy. You are an emotional being like most of the humans. Cry out loud if you feel like it and just keep fighting. You are going to get your dream job soon, buy a house, and become healthy too. You will get married too, haha. Just remember this- Everything will be alright in the end, and if it isn't alright, it isn't the end.
Addiction According to many doctors, "Addiction" is a psychological and physical inability to stop consuming a chemical, drug, activity, or substance, even though it is causing psychological and physical harm. Once people are addicted to something it's really hard to stop. A person can be addicted to anything from heroin, cocaine, weed, alcohol, gaming, etc. Once a person is addicted to something it starts hampering with one's normal life. One will give priority to the thing he is addicted to before everything else. Family, relations, and financial conditions are affected. One will start spending all the time and money in one's addiction. Most of the time, the person wants the feeling of euphoria he gets when he consumed such things and he wants that feeling every time he can. One also needs money to purchase the thing or substance he is addicted to. And once all his means are exhausted one may indulge in various criminal activity to earn money. Many rehabs are there, that help a person get rid of his addiction. But many cases are there where they again go back to addiction after getting out of rehab. Everyone wants to get rid of addiction and we should help them mentally and not see them as some criminals. Once you are addicted to something you will know how hard it is to leave the addiction. So how do we avoid getting addicted to something? I would say free mind is the beginning of addiction. We should study, play, or have a hobby and do it in your free time. Resting is necessary but sitting idle often is not. And we should not try things for the sake of trying. Thank you for reading.
Life - Laziness and Procrastination Lately, I have not been able to do anything productive. Sleeping very late and waking up in the afternoon has become a daily habit. Life has become tedious. I have been preparing for various exams to get a job and now it has come to halt. With the lockdown and unsure of the exam schedule, my preparation has gone haywire. Trust me, I really want to take my preparation seriously and I really don't know why I am procrastinating a lot nowadays. My daily schedule has become nothing productive. My day goes by browsing social media, binge-watching Netflix, and youtube and just laying in bed thinking about the past and future. I have become lazy and useless. I am really in need of some push to end this. I want to get a job soon and get settled in life. I wonder how do I change this? It has happened before during my college days where I would just procrastinate a lot and didn't learn anything. Life hasn't been the same back then and I am reaping what I sowed. And I don't want to start the same cycle again. I know it but I am not able to change it. I don't know how can I start preparing for the jobs and give my heart and soul to it. From today I have made simple easy tasks to complete like writing about me here and read newspapers along with some hours of studies. Let's see how it goes. If it goes fine then I should start extending my studying hour. I really want to escape the endless cycle of laziness and procrastination. I really had to push myself to write this and took 3 breaks in between to complete this. It's hard for me nowadays even to write such simple article about me. Hope I am able to write here everyday no matter the topic. Thank you for reading.
Motivation in my life What is motivation? It is the experience of desire or aversion. Everybody needs the motivation to achieve something. Without motivation, our works or goals get partial efforts. So what gives us motivation? According to people, our situation motivates us to change the situation, having a certain goal that motivates us to give our best to achieve it I don't wake up every day with motivation to do something. I procrastinate a lot and often find myself without any motivation and just do nothing. I have many goals and have achieved a few things which I want to accomplish. So how should I motivate myself to achieve it? I have tried reading motivational quotes, watching motivational videos, reading success stories but to no avail. I really wonder how people use their motivation every day of their life and become successful. It is still a mystery to me. I really wish I had motivation daily, just like I eat breakfast. Maybe I should just start working on things without any motivation and complete my task.
Social media Today almost everyone with access to a smartphone has at least one social media account. It has become a place where people get all the information from knowing what his friends, relatives are doing, getting news, see an advertisement, watch videos, play games, etc. You have social media for everything nowadays like Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter, Snapchat, etc. And each has its own following. Social media has made everyone connected anytime and anywhere. It has facilitated the sharing of information, ideas in the form of photos, videos, text, and sound almost instantly. It has helped in raising issues of various problems and discrimination faced by society, has become a voice for the voiceless, given a chance to be recognized by a larger audience if they have some talent, exposed corruption, bad deeds, and aristocracies of government, organization, etc. It can also be used to expand a business, find jobs, connect with people experts in their field. Though it has also made people spend less time in the real world and spend more time on such platforms. There is also an increase in cyberbullying which can affect the mental health of the victim. Vulnerable children on such platforms are also targeted by pedophiles. It has also given rise to various scams. There is also a rise in the constant need for attention in real life due to getting so much attention on social media. There is also a rise in fake news which can spread like wildfire which may affect somebody's lives. One wrong statement by celebrated people with thousand of followers on such platforms can destroy careers in the blink of an eye. Many private images and videos have also been shared to get revenge on such platforms and some have gone viral as well. It has also become an endless habit to browse social media endlessly and do nothing productive. Social media has its advantages and disadvantages. We need to take control of its use not let it control our lives. Children should be taught how to use and what to share on such platforms. We should learn to keep a balance with our lives and social media lives.
