Why would we want to do that? It's like the old phrase of "God intention, bad law." Think about it, the only way to restrain gambling addiction/urge/self-destruction is with self-control. If the timeout imposed without consent, people will find a way to bypass the law. Thus, the law becomes meaningless. Moreover, it can be used by the corrupt government to punish their opposition. Imagine getting in jail because someone accuses you of playing video games (or gambling). It just like the death penalty for corruptors, when the government is corrupt, it only being used to punish or get rid of someone they don't like.

Roma beat Salernitana 4-0 away. New signing Abraham scored.
£34m fee looks like it's worth it if we judge him from his performance. Strong, quick, and tall, just like typical Mourinho's striker.
I think Mourinho finally got a club that 100% backs his vision. New signings Ibañez, Viña, Patrício, Abraham, become starters. I have a very good feeling of this Roma team. Smiley

1883  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Credit card bans introduced in Ireland. on: August 31, 2021, 05:32:10 PM
This will drive up crypto adoption imo. Just because people can't use their credit cards doesn't mean that they will stop gambling. They will find something else. It will be either their debit cards or their crypto balance. Since it is a child's play to buy/sell crypto now they will probably avoid the headache of using banks again and use crypto instead. That's the most logical way to approach this ban.
I don't think ban on credit card would drive crypto adoption since they still have debit cards and fiat on land casinos. Sure, if they also banned debit cards, then people don't have a choice other than crypto. I believe the idea is to forbid playing with the money that you don't have (aka borrowing money for gambling). I'm 70% supporting this policy, 30% against because people should be free to choose even if it means destroying their own life.

If IDR currency is accepted then we can play with under 0.2$ on some popular slot ~XD.
IDR 200 is ~0.014 USD
IDR 20,000 (for bonus buy) is ~1.4 USD
The definition of dirt cheap Grin

I just checked and I can play yggdrasil and hacksaw games with IDR but the minimum bet remains the same (equivalent to usd).
Wah, that's not the IDR that we know. IDR should be cheap Cheesy
$0.2 may be equal to IDR 200 if we look at the purchasing power of both nations (not the nominal one). If the minimum bet is the same (equivalent to USD), it doesn't feel like IDR betting Grin
1885  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Abortion should be banned. on: August 31, 2021, 02:42:16 PM
People should not base this decision on wants, but on health/safety. IMO human rights, the rights to live, starts when human formed as fetus. I think the fetus prefers to be alive than die if they can talk. But if the pregnancy is dangerous for the mother, the mother can choose to abort the baby since she also has the rights to live.
1886  Economy / Economics / Re: Nigeria leads sub-Saharan Africa’s P2P bitcoin trade on: August 31, 2021, 02:28:10 PM
It seems P2P is the only way of trading BTC there at the moment because of bans. IMO it doesn't show a surge in use/activity etc., it just a consequence of the ban. Anyway, I hope there won't be further law that makes ownership of BTC or P2P trading illegal (or the law already exist?). People should be free to own/buy/trade BTC though, but you know authoritarian government can do whatever they want.

I really enjoy IDR slots betting on Stake as $25 can last for a long time, even with bonus buy Grin
Can I request more IDR support for Pragmatic's games since not all of them can be played with IDR. It's better than playing with FUN balance!
1888  Local / Altcoins (Bahasa Indonesia) / Re: [FUD] Binance vs Mamarika, Inggris, Jepang & Korea? on: August 30, 2021, 07:19:52 AM
Dampak dari beberapa negara yang melarang exchange binance di negara ini cuma sementara. Meskipun benerapa negara melarang, exchange binance tetap menjadi exchange terbesar dengan volume trading yang tinggi.
Ini fenomena yang menarik sih, apa karena "investor" kripto itu kebanyakan masih muda ya jadinya peringatan dari berbagai negara tidak dianggap sama sekali? Atau memang mereka agak sedikit anarko (anti government gt)?

Apalagi koin BNB bukan hanya dipakai untuk diskon fee trading tapi juga bisa dipakai untuk perusahaan dan investor untuk menyimpan asetnya seperti Eth.
Maksudnya dijadikan wETH BSC gitu?

This isn't really something that makes sense if you ask me
It makes sense because their promotion model is only valid per person/household, thus they need something to identify the account. Without KYC, cheaters can easily abuse the promotion.

I rather have these places have zero license, zero registry, zero accountability and still gamble more than any other place that has KYC.
Really? Not for me. I prefer legit casino with good governance.
Anon casino can steal your money and just disappear.

I think that I just got $25 free bet from Fotunejack for participating in Majestic7 competition and prediction five correct goal scorers in Matchday 3, and it could easily be six if I didn't mess up with one prediction for Liverpool vs Chelsea.
Congrats man, 4/7 for me aka no luck.
1890  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: what's wrong with uniswap? on: August 30, 2021, 03:03:05 AM
It's not only about Uniswap. In general, ETH network is congested, and the new fee algorithm (EIP-1559) is shit. ETH is practically useless with the average fee of $30 (source)
Just use other chains with similar dex, like BSC-Pancakeswap, Matic-Quickswap, etc.

@MAAManda luput dari pengamatan itu ternyata feenya gara-gara ERC20 Cheesy
Agan pakai exchange apa kalau mau wede di chain Polygon?

Tapi volume tertingginya masih erc20 om, mungkin yang baru-baru banyak pakai matic karena feenya paling rendah.
Selain fee, mungkin ya gara-gara market-market besar kek opensea juga pakai polygon chain.

Quote
OpenSea now offers cross-blockchain support across Ethereum, Polygon and Klatyn.
Sumur.

Politik mungkin lebih bermain di sini, karena bisa aja opensea pakai BSC daripada Polygon. Apaan tuh Klatyn, belum pernah denger ane.

You can find the answer here: https://www.reddit.com/r/EtherMining/comments/l60f9h/should_i_care_about_the_memory_temp_as_long_as/
The memory sensor isn't there for some vendor of RX 580, so you need a laser thermometer or similar device to shoot the temp.
It said also GDDR5 along with the under-voltage typically won't have problem with temperature, so people just ignore it.
1896  Other / Off-topic / Re: Pacquiao vs Ugas rematch on: August 27, 2021, 11:11:54 AM
He wants to fight because he thinks he was not able to give his 100% in that fight, his legs were tight so he was not able to move well like he usually do in his previous fight, and we all witness that, so maybe let's give him a chance.
C'mon man! As you grow older, your legs will be tight most of the time Grin
Cannot give 100% is because he is old, and the percentage will drop along with the increased age. Last fight he gave perhaps 85%, surely next fight will be 80%, and keep decreasing.

Anyway, it's not only about the legs, but his speed is just not there anymore. I doubt this match will be realized. The only good thing about Pacman is that he didn't receive enough damage that lead to injury, he should retire while still healthy.
1897  Other / Meta / Re: The forum culture is to kill all newbies? on: August 27, 2021, 09:56:41 AM
I don't think nowadays this forum is harsh for newbies. The other way around, I often get "hate" response from newbies who have toxic attitude. I advise you to keep the drama inside the reputation board, and solve the problem/accusation there with proofs. You have an abnormal merit count though, so his suspicion is understandable.
1898  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Did the FDA actually approve a FUTURE covid “vaccine”? on: August 27, 2021, 09:39:12 AM
So they can approve vaccine without long-term studies? It's not the FDA approval that is important, but the empirical data from long-term studies. It's only like 1 year or so data? Not convincing (for skeptics). Anyway, time is ticking, and soon we will know if the vaccine is safe, and all the debates about the vaccinated will die in x-years shall be put to an end.
1899  Economy / Economics / Re: Masters in Blockchain and Digital Currency on: August 27, 2021, 09:22:13 AM
Higher education is not for everyone as it's expensive, takes time, and probably won't land you better jobs. It depends on your financial position though whether you are already rich or struggling to get some income to survive. Since you already have BSC, you would struggle if you get a master in programming related field, since you don't have strong basic in computer science (I assume), even though it can be learned along the way, but it's still difficult. Blockchain, etc., is basically programming, cryptography, computer science, etc. It's interesting, but not for everyone, especially from those from social science.

I'd suggest that you work first in the blockchain industry and take the education if you still see it useful. There are lots of area that don't require you to have programming skill, such as law and regulation, and other supporting area (H&R, accounting, PR, etc).
1900  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why such high fees in ETH? on: August 27, 2021, 07:59:21 AM
I wonder who came with that formula, because it seems that even though we're not close to 100% capacity, yet this formula has lead to very high base fee. Do you know who invented and enforced this formula onto gas fee structure?
Vitalik Buterin (@vbuterin) et al.

I guess authors don't have knowledge of economy, thus thinking that centrally planned fees (even though it's algorithm) are good. What we see here is a definition of inefficiency, where some blocks aren't full even though the network is congested. Also, it introduces lag, where the lower fees txs must wait for the base fees to decrease before it can be included in a block. This setup surely doesn't belong to POW when the miners maxing their fees, and fight in the "hash race."
