I hope Imola will never go on the calendar again.
I have to disappoint you, but Imola is on calendar until 2025 at least Cheesy. Yeah, this track isn't perfect for overtaking, but Lewis stuck behind Gasly is more Mercedes problem than track. I still prefer tracks like this instead of these fancy street circuits.
We will see one of such tracks for the first time, Miami GP in stadium parking after 2 weeks.

I would say that it's time to start thinking about upcoming season, it's not big difference we will finish 2nd or 3rd, but then I realized that with such perfromance we can drop out from Champions league spot.
@Harko described our season very well - from terrible to good and then terrible again. After all, our biggest achievement is beating Real 4:0 in Madrid. Sweet, but meaningless in general.

now that Real betis secured Europa League the 7th place in La liga will go to conference league. Bilbao and Villareal are the main candidates for that spot
Don't forget that Villarreal still can qualify to Champions league by winning this season Champions league Smiley.
yep, but let's be completely honest here, winning the whole thing? really now?  Cheesy  
I mentioned it more like possibility, rather than real thing, but you never know Cheesy

So, you signed up on Bitcointalk just to spread pro-Russian propaganda? Your attempt is very poor - random fake video without any context, and it's already been debunked.

yes this is not a farce, for me putin is the savior of the world.
He saved world exactly from what?

Quote
If the president of ukraine didn't plan on joining nato there probably wouldn't have been a war.
Nope. When Russia occupied Crimea and started conflict in Donbas, joining NATO for Ukraine become almost impossible. There were no risk for Russia that Ukraine will become NATO member soon, so, there was no reason to start this full scale war. But I'm not sure why I waste my time explaining it for you, it's pointless thing.

I am looking forward to seeing world war 3 in this modern era. Tongue
You're really so dumb?

but why the president of Ukraine refuses to just make peace?
How he can refuse to make peace when he didn't even started war. That's question for Putin. Do you really think that this war is beneficial for Ukraine.

Yeah, final was great, as I said before game, chances for both teams is 50/50. It's not to right blame kid for missed penalty, I don't understand such managers decisions by releasing player without much experience for penalty shootout. You can become hero in such way, but more often you end up being zero.
Joaquin, what a legend indeed, his 2nd Copa with Betis after 17 years.
About Barca, yeah, our performance is shaky a bit, but I'm not sure how to call what Rayo is doing in recent months.

now that Real betis secured Europa League the 7th place in La liga will go to conference league. Bilbao and Villareal are the main candidates for that spot

Perfect weekend vor Red Bull and Verstappen. Max got everything what is possible - pole, sprint race win, race win and fastest lap. Solid race for Perez too.
Bad home race for Ferrari. Sainz out, poor start for Leclerc, spin later which cost podium and more places.
Max aren't able to overtake Gasly for so long and it was fight just for 12th place. On the other hand, P4 for Russel isn't bad result.
In general, a bit disappointed that predicted rain didn't come, there wasn't much action when track got dry. But Leclerc mistake made race interesting again.
2467  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Sportsbet.io ⚽ Spanish La Liga ⚽ Football Pool Discussion Thread on: April 23, 2022, 07:30:57 PM
we can take the cup tomorrow, it is far from impossible
Betis is a good team, but they are not playing great lately, could even argue that putting them as favorites is a mistake, game could go any side
In general, Betis is more solid and stable team during season, but it's final, just one game and I think that chances for both teams is 50/50. And you're right, recent Betis performance isn't that good as it was during whole season. I also will support Valencia, it would be interesting to see them in Europe next season. Copa del Rey title gives place in Europa league, not Conference league, right? Meanwhile Betis have good chances to reach it through league.

Qualifying today was quite big wtf. So many accidents, red flags, change of weather and rain. So, after all, length of qualifying was close to 2 hours, almost like a race. Verstappen won pole, but this qualification didn't answered question who is who fully. Mercedes didn't even reached Q3, but it don't show that they are so bad - they simply wasn't able to make their fast lap attempt on dry track because of another red flag. And P4 for Magnussen is amazing achievement, especially after that his accident when he was close to be eliminated.

As you guys probably know, we have sprint race this weekend and qualifying on Friday. If you want to get an Early Bru Point, you will have to predict Sprint race winner, not qualifying winner:
Quote
Important: Sprint race
This race uses a sprint race on Saturday to decide the grid for the race on Sunday. Qualifying sessions on Friday will decide the starting order for Saturday's sprint race.

In Superbru, the pick deadline for Early Bru Points will be the start of the sprint race. When picking pole, you are still picking the driver who will start the race at the front of the grid, after any penalties have been applied.

The times are out of sorts for those who are watching from North America because it is in Europe so you need to adjust your time schedule accordingly to whatever timezone you are in so to not miss any of the races.
But Skysports has the schedule set to U.K timezones so it is easier to remember for those across the pond.
I just go by this site to find the correct times of each race since they are broadcasting and giving me the feed which I am watching from:
https://www.skysports.com/f1/news/12433/12593728/emilia-romagna-gp-when-to-watch-qualifying-and-both-races-on-sky-sports-f1-as-sprint-format-returns

Little lifehack from meand you won't have to adjust timezone manually. On official F1 website https://www.formula1.com/ there is calendar with all sessions times shown in your local time and track time. You also can sync it with your Google, Apple and Outlook calendar and never miss race.

There are only 4 games left, it will be impossible for Sporting to catch Porto at the top of the standings, congratulations on Porto for having won the 30th Portuguese league trophy,
My question is why no other club has been able to lift the Portuguese league trophy, only three clubs have always lifted the Portuguese league trophy,
1, Benfica
2, FC porto,
3, sporting cp,
To be fully correct, only 5 clubs have won league in whole history. Besides big 3, Belenenses won it somewhere 80 years ago and Boavista over 20 years ago. I'm a bit surprised that Braga never won it - they usually keep close to big 3.
It's all about the money. Main clubs have way bigger budgets, best academies and etc. While most of remaining clubs in Portugal is really poor and they're not able to compete as equal, it's like closed circle. Something similar like Bayern in Bundlesliga.
@Slow death, good point about African players, there is very few of them in Portugal. Seems that they prefer Brazil players. They also don't get good money in Brazil, especially playing in lower divisions.
2471  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Russian Invasion of Ukraine[In Progress] on: April 21, 2022, 07:33:02 PM
I have two friends who are ethnic Ukrainians (one supports the operation, the other does not support and does not want to discuss this topic) and another friend has a wife from Donbass, her parents have long been accustomed to living under the shelling of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Another friend of mine is an ethnic Tatar. Other friends are Russian. I meet with them, we drink vodka and there is no hatred between us - this is my objective reality.

If your reality is different, you are probably a racist.
But that's just your social bubble, it probably can't reflect whole Russia. I think it's difficult to deny that hatred of Ukrainians isn't a thing.
From my personal experience with Russians - most of them are good people, as long as you don't start to talk about politics with them.

Quote
Apparently people in the Donbass do not want to learn their native Russian as a foreign language.
Well, that's one of questions where I don't agree with Ukraine position. I think they had to give regional language status to Russian language. And I think it's one of few questions which can be discussed with Russia. But all these negotiations which happened so far were completely pointless.

Quote
The facts of the oppression of the Russian-speaking population in Ukraine are too numerous and documented for your allegation to cancel them - even if you are completely right.
You contradict yourself with this sentence. Big part of Ukrainian population speaks Russian without any issues and at the same time there is oppression of Russian speaking people. Could you show few examples of such discrimination?
2472  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Motosport General discussion tread --- Formula1, MotoGP, WTCC, ETCC, DTM..... on: April 20, 2022, 08:31:11 PM
I checked weather forecast for weekend and there is rain shown with low temperatures on Friday, clean Saturday and rain on Sunday. If I'm not mistaken, these cars didn't had wet sessions during pre-season tests and without any doubts during season. So, it's interesting how new cars will behave on wet track and for who this rain would be beneficial
Don't forget that this weekend we have sprint race first time this season.

This week, 4 out 5 teams near the relegation zone either won or somehow managed to draw their game. Meanwhile, every team in the top 6 except Real madrid dropped points. So yeah, season's ending, teams are exhausted, so expect the unexpected. Props to anyone getting some points in our pool, games are pretty much a coin flip at this point yet there are people who keep earning pts (:
Crazy stuff. I already said in curreent phase of season we can expect to see bottom table teams making upsets, but I really didn't even imagined so many surprises. There is way too much red color on mu Superbru profile :/

Apparently before the election he won both him and the incumbent president agreed to take drug tests before a debate (both passed), so I assume accusations were made.  But other than that, really nothing. 
I don't remember did there was accusations or no, but actually this drug test challenge before debates was made by Zelensky to Poroshenko.

Although now that I think of it, hacking and posting this type of "news" instead of the usual "you've been pwned hahaha" might be more effective in spreading panic.

From the technical standpoint, this might mean that it was not the server but some user's (who has access to post news on that site) PC that was hacked.

That is if we were to believe there was a hack and not someone accidentally spilling Putin's plans Smiley
Yeah, hack may be just excuse, but in reality, this thing was done intentionally. Something similar what they often spread on TV propaganda shows when some politologs talking about potential nuclear strike on Poland, or Baltic states for example. Main faces or Russian politics won't say that, but they can use propaganda shows to spread such message. Good example of it was Zhirinovsky.

That's right, in Russia there is no hatred for the people of Ukraine. Russians and Ukrainians are too closely intertwined cultural and family roots to cultivate hatred for each other, it's like a form of schizophrenia. I am sad how some Ukrainians hate Russians, hatred is a self-destructive emotion.
You must be living in some alternative reality. Go into streets or open some social media and you'll see what Russians think about Ukrainians. Calling Ukrainians as nazi or banderovtsy is common stuff in Russia. It's not about Azov, not about Zelensky or someone else, but about whole nation. I don't even talk about such words like Khokhol

Quote
Across Ukraine, the number of schools that teach Russian is rapidly declining, and since 2018, Ukraine has completely stopped publishing textbooks in Russian. Modern Ukrainian school textbooks are some kind of obscurantism, and from an early age children are cultivated anti-Russian propaganda, representing Russians as wild orcs, with whom the best thing to do is to kill. It began under Yushchenko in 2004, and in 17 years a whole generation of narrow-minded nationalist fanatics has grown up, of which now all this Nazi nonsense will have to be knocked out of their heads.
So, what's wrong with that? Official language in Ukraine is Ukrainian, so, it's normal that they don't teach Russian as main language. But they still teach Russian as foreign language. And anti-Russian propaganda in school textbooks, what you describe is sounds more like some conspiracy theory.

Quote
It seems you live in an illusory information bubble, having little contact with reality. Stores in Ukraine massively refused to serve Russian-speaking customers. In the bars of Ukraine, Russian speech could easily become a strong argument for a fight. Ukrainians are bilingual people and their attempt to ban the Russian language is absurd, because it impoverishes them and linguistically the Ukrainian language is not a self-sufficient dialect of Russian.
And despite things you said, people in Ukraine continue to use Russian language without any issues. Many troops who defends Ukraine speak Russian, public faces or many politics too.

Here is a very fresh video from Mariupol: https://youtu.be/YZGo5roYEJE

The fact that this is Mariupol in 2022 is partially confirmed by the words at the end of the video about the escaped mayor Vadim Boychenko, as well as about the military who are hiding at the plant and the name of the street.
In this video, several women in broad daylight on a busy street publicly accused the Ukrainian army of crimes against local residents. Do you think they brazenly lie, not being afraid that passers-by may catch them in a lie? Or maybe all these people on the street are actors or too scared to tell the truth? Submit your versions.
If you do not believe these reports, then invite independent journalists and human rights activists who will interview the population of Mariupol about what has been happening in the city for the past two months.
So, ok, you picked one of many videos. I'm not surprised that part of people in Mariupol is pro-Russian and they would welcome Russian troops with flowers. But why exactly do you that people in this video is telling true and all people who tell about Russian crimes in Mariupol is lying?
Inviting independent journalists would be good thing, but who exactly is independent journalist? Every journalist depends on something. And considering current situation in Mariupol, I think it would be quite difficult to find journalist who would risk their life and come to Mariupol.

With price of each ticket 25 000 Satoshi, total value of his tickets over 1 BTC or almost $42 000. So, even if bought all tickets, he still have almost $60 000 profit. Why these maths is stupid? Because I don't believe that someone would buy so many lottery tickets, and most likely it was another whale who gamble a lot, as usual and he got most of tickets in this way.

Something is wrong with your math there.

4305 tickets @0.00025 each = 1.07625 btc and this guy won 4.91 btc so that would be around 3.83 btc profit. So this guy won over $150k of profit assuming that if he bought all of those tickets which is probably not. I honestly dont think anyone would purchase 4305 tickets when there are over 1 million of tickets in the pool, chances of winning are slim with only that small amount
Indeed, my bad. Have no idea why, but for me it's stuck in head that lottery winner gets $100k in BTC, so I didn't even bothered to check how much exactly won. Sometimes it's better to check stuff twice before posting, thanks Wink.

Until February 21, 2022, this was an internal affair of Ukraine, in fact a civil war and genocide of the Russian-speaking population of Donbass, who were forbidden to speak their native language, and when they did not agree with this, they began to shoot, kill and did it for 8 years right in the center of Europe.
Forbidden to talk their native language, c'mon. It was just question of Russian language status. Meanwhile big part of Ukrainian troops, mayors, governors of eastern Ukraine cities and so on continue to speak Russian without any problems, despite war.
And while Russia made genocide of Russian speaking people in Mariupol, killing civilians in Kharkiv and other cities in East.

If you listen to Arestovich a lot, then Ukraine is doing much better now than a couple of months ago. Buried alive in the Azovstal bunker is also a victory for Ukraine, of course.
What do you expect that he will say - that we are fucked up? He said lot of things, not everything was true, but I never tried to idolize him or any other person.

That is, it doesn’t bother you that the president of Ukraine is a drug addict and an actor from the series about the president, doing some kind of game and all that? Grin
If this video is proof that Zelensky is drug addict, then it's very weak proof. And after all, what's wrong to be an actor? I think it's way better thing than former KGB agent.

Quote
Russia does not cultivate hatred towards other nationalities, I think now several million citizens of Ukraine live and work in Russia. And I did not notice that they somehow actively protested against the operation in Ukraine, arranging protest rallies in Russian cities or something like that.
Wait, wait, wait, you really want to say that there is no hatred towards Ukrainians in Russia? That's enough internet for me today.
Yes, there is many Ukrainians by nationality in Russia, but many of them don't asociate themselves with Ukraine. And protest in Russia against war, good joke. I think you perfectly know how it would end.

I don't know if this is some next-level trollfuckery - even though it's on an official government site - but I guess it's been nice knowing you all.

It's likely that Cadiz will relegate from league despite this win, but they have simply amazing H2H with Barca in these two seasons - 2 wins and 2 draws.
Today's game was simply embarrasing and Cadiz win wasn't luck or something similar. It's well deserved result. It's simply amazing how everything can turn into worse side just in one week. When I saw that there is Garca and Lenglet in starting swuad, I already had fears that it may not end good for us.
