I've got no problem with just ignoring a user - I just click on ignore and they are gone.  There might be some weak will individuals here within the Forum that can't help themselves and not only look but then click reply perpetuating their reasoning to clash with others. 

They just need to let it go.

Isn't this just a rehash of a "rumor" from about six weeks ago that some of the English football league clubs were going to form a breakaway league of their own?

Fans a plenty were interviewed on TV news services decrying the proposal and vowing to cancel their life memberships in protest.  The clubs quickly distanced themselves from the proposal.

The same thing will probably happen now.

At half time the score was 28 - 4 and I said to myself that the Sea Eagles would win 56 - 10 (double on the Eagle's side and one try plus conversion on the Eels side).  I wouldn't have prdicted such a high score or wide gap in those scores prior to half time.


If the Eels slide two more spots over the next two games they may fall out of the top eight in the last round of the "regular" season.  The Eels next meet the Cowboys, so it'd be pretty embarrassing if they lost.  My money will be on the Eels for round 23.

The Warriors out played the Bulldogs and the Knights just squeezed in past the Sharks (who I thought might win that outing).

@Raja Singa:

Many thanks for your report.  Can you please edit your submission to include the UID names immediately after "4 Accounts Connected" please?  This makes it much easier for subsequent investigators to post followups of other alts found to add to the list as exampled in the posts immediately above yours.

Thanks.

Now that was a thrilling end to the last fifteen minutes of the Roosters 21 - Broncos 20 game.



Starting at 18 - 18, the Roosters made a one point field goal



After a high tackle the Broncos took the lead with a two point penalty goal



Then with just two minutes to go, the Roosters had their own two point penalty goal kick then spent two tense minutes fending off the Broncos to win the game and return to the top four in the competition.

Rugby Union.

I really must visit the Rugby Australia site more often:



There's better coverage of the Women's games (would like to see a play-by-play scorecard like how the League website does.  (let's not mention the drubbing the Australian's got in the Bledisloe Cup)

18 - 18 at the 65 minute mark with fifteen nail-blighting minutes left to go.



I didn't do too good at picking winners in the Olympics (including the various Rugby games on offer) so I'm hoping the Roosters pull off a last minute win.  This game's very close.

In the earlier game, the Panthers slayed the Dragons 34 - 16

You could have sectional power failures such as the US East Coast - or Southern States after a decent hurricane.  (Same goes with the Gulf States - think Haiti etc).

The thing I like about the Goal Zero products is unlike other solar power collectors (panels and batteries) *everything* has plugs - be it 6V or 240AC/110DC and various USB types of plugs enabling the end user to plug everything in thanks to the connectivity (plus power feed through i.e. recharge a battery while a cell phone is also plugged into the power pack battery).

Other solar panels struggle with loose wires, or non-standard power plugs or connectors.

That said, a UPS is the way to go to ensure your PC / work station shuts down effectively during a sudden power loss enabling you to back-up data before shutting down.

At a guess, the Sea Eagles would still be in sixth position on 28 points jointly with the Eels (also 28 points, or is it 29 points if they get one point for the loss??)

If the Roosters and Sea Eagles both win, then the Eagles and Eels would just swap places and be

• Roosters - 30 points
• Eels - 28 points
• Sea Eagles - 28 points

A Titans win would keep them in seventh (a loss would shunt them to tied eight with the Raiders who would rise to seventh - I don't think the Raiders are a spent force any time yet)

A win for the Sharks would lift them to tied (7/8/9) with Titans/Raiders on 20 points.

The shoulder charge and subsequent high tackle are what's holding the Raiders back (and plenty of unforced errors)

I *was* going to write up how the Melbourne Storm won their match in the 77th minute with a two point field goal, but just two minutes later, they repeted the effort to beat the Canberra Raiders 26 - 16.



https://www.nrl.com/draw/nrl-premiership/2021/round-22/storm-v-raiders/



The last fifteen minutes saw the Raiders pile on multiple errors and one send off right before the inevitable match winning field goal.  Then, after an succesful "Captain's Challenge" by the Raiders (a ploy to catch their breaths) the Storm gained the ball and made a second field goal.

The NRL have quietly added a button at the lower right of screen "Women of NRL".  However, all it does is take you to the draws page https://www.nrl.com/draw/ ^{(and there isn't any current news concerning the Women's matches).}.

Let's call it for what it is.

Theft.

No-one was employed to test for vulnerabilities and as the article states, the thief made a rookie mistake causing their funds (and probably by extension their own identity) to be identified on an exchange.

It's little compensation for some of the traders whose funds were stolen to then have them returned - some people could have been relying on sales to keep them fed or just about anything.  Not know if/when their funds would be recovered would have been harrowing.

I'm of two minds when it comes to getting paid in bitcoin - I'm getting paid bitcoin for the weekly posts that I do here in the forum via the freebitco.in Signature Campaign, so when it comes TAX time I have to make a spread sheet with the amount paid both in US dollars and bitcoin equivalent, then the rate of exchange to Australian Dollars and the actual exchanged amount, then tally those details up.

If I sell the bitcoin rather than spending them, I am in for capital gains tax, so it would still be the same regardless of which currency equivalent the bitcoin was paid to me in.

You may have a Taxation system that doesn't have these stipulations, you would have to check that out for yourself.

I've just got one small suggestion that I hope you might be able to implement - to the far right(or left) of any/all boxes that you can enter a value there is a button with a padlock icon to either lock the price, or conversely unlock the price.  I've had a few occasions where I've entered e.g $ 47.50 and with in a minute or two the price and the bitcoin value are jumping all over the place.  (the dollar value will show $ 47.52 and the price of bitcoin shown will end up showing e.g. 0.10289999999999999 bitcents...

You'd also have to factor in just how large a narcissist the car sales man is and how much control he has over the brand, board of directors and the shareholders.  If he felt he could push the price of bitcoin sky high for a second time, then it's possible (just possible) that Tesla may indeed be stockpiling some of their earnings with a view to cashing in when the price gains momentum (or, selling at a higher price than when they were first acquired from car sales)

I think you have that back-to-front ...

With less bitcoin available, their price has to rise (remember, the old adage of supply and demand: the less there is of something, the more people want it)

Less bitcoin (in your example above lost keys) = More value overall.

Usually I let up to a week's worth of rolls build up, then roll them all out at once, so once in a while I get a win that enables me to buy 100 FUN.  I've locked my FUN tokens away for the next twelve months and any funds I get from the WOF I'm using to buy more FUN (more FUN = more rolls = more FUN) in lots of 100 FUN. 

Interesting to know ^{(I don't know much about ETH or the whole Dex / DAapp area of crypto so I appreciate your input)} - I see UniSwap is around $25.00 each, so people must think it has an inbuilt value, especially as you say enabling end users to cast votes on changes to the system (as opposed to consensus I would imagine)

If I can make a suggestion that to protect both yourself and the prospective buyer you offer an escrow option where the items are sent to the escrow, or directly to the buyer for inspection then the escrow releases the payment. 

Good luck with your sale - My father has given me parts of his stock from when he did markets around Brisbane including Pokemon and Dragon Ball-Z, so it's good to be able to have a look at other items that are out there at the moment on offer for sale.

There are plenty of power backup solutions on the market already, not to mention places like data storage facilities provide uninterrupted power supply as do telecommunications facilities.

Companies such as Goal Zero offer power capture (solar panels) and battery storage for end users to be powered up on the go in all situations from hiking and camping through out in the field data collection and the like, so it's a little bit of a stretch to suggest a global power failure is going to occur much less a collapse of the crypto sphere with it.

I don't feel in the short term that will be the case at all.  With the price of bitcoin on the rise (some say to one million dollars per 1.0 BTC) I believe bitcoin will shift away from being used for Pizza, coffee or tipping online and shift into the commercial sector where it will be used for shifting large amounts of fiat from one platform (bank, merchant, employer etc) to another securely.

Alt coins with non-existent transaction fees (even Lightning network) will in time replace fiat for day to day purchases.

The share market has rebounded in recent months to prices pre-covid and the bitcoin market seems as though it is now on an upward trajectory to do the exact same thing, only without the hype being spread by a certain car sales man looking to line his pockets.

While I believe people should invest in a small amount of bitcoin each week, fortnight, month ... just remember it's meant to be used to make online payments securely.
