but it's shocking the media is silent on Joe Biden hiding and refusing to answer any questions from the media

He's not hiding, he actually sounded pretty good during his speech right before Kamala a couple days age.
The media wasn't silent on him not taking questions either.  On msnbc they literally replayed them shooing away reporters after the speech.  Conservative media frames it as 'hiding in his basement' and Liberal media "letting Trump self destruct".

https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2020/08/13/election-2020-voters-are-highly-engaged-but-nearly-half-expect-to-have-difficulties-voting/

A majority, 53%, of Biden voters are voting for him not based on leadership, policy, character, values, ect. but for the sole reason he is not Trump. Further evidence politics is not about policy, but a team sport. Also an indictment of Trump's character, to be fair.

The poll asked people for 'the main reason you're voting for...' that doesn't mean it's the only reason or that they don't think he has any leadership, character, values, ect.  Although I think there probably are going to be a decent number of people who normally don't really care about politics but are voting bc they think it's important Trump doesn't win.  It's really not that different from 2016.   Also it's 56% that answered "bc he's not Trump" so it's possible I'm looking at the wrong poll lol.

He mercilessly trolls the gambling community, genuinely sad to see he’s back again. I don't see the point though, what does he get out of it? Nobody is going to fall for his fake service, I only saw one user pay him as game-protect, it was hans.

Gambling sites that are unlicensed, operate illegally and don't pay people out can wait for someone to scrutinize them. Many people here have no opinion of their own, saying just to score some posts. I do not participate in that. I am critical of sportsbooks that scam and operate illegally, and that should be more people. Funny to see how many people turn out to be traumatized by Game Protect.
Do you understand the definition of "trolling"?
I don't think so. I am not negative, I am critical. And this is the right on the forum.

You def aren't game-protect.

You're either a troll just trying to stir things up for the lulz or you are are a relatively new to the crypto gambling community and just one of those people that likes to act like they know everything.

Or both.

I'm guessing you were pissed at a site for something so you came here to try and get your money back and all these people started accusing you of being someone else and you liked the attention and now here we are.  Just a guess though.

Ok so there is a newer Fox interview, Fox Business more specifically, and it doesn't disappoint... turns out Biden and Harris have something against cows.

https://factba.se/transcript/donald-trump-interview-fox-business-maria-bartiromo-august-13-2020
Quote
The cows -- I don’t know if they actually put the cows in. They’re getting hit very hard by the animal rights groups but they don’t want to have cows, they don’t want to have any form of animals.

Also Harris earned her own birther conspiracy theory in the few short days she's been a VP candidate - well done:

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-53774289


I think the cow stuff is stemming from republicans continuously misrepresenting a sarcastic note on a draft of the green new deal about why the goal was 'net 0 carbon emissions' and not '0 emissions' "because we can't get farting cows that fast".  Millions of people believe the green new deal wants to get rid of cows.  I guess Trump figured out that 'Dems want to take away your meat' is pretty effective and decided to try it out on Kamala.

....
And mark my words the coming climate disaster will kill and displace millions of people during our lifetimes. As long as you live another 30-50 years to really start experiencing it. During this decade we'll see another arctic ice all time low, every year it's more probable then the last, and eventually a blue ocean event. And the climate will start getting very different. More droughts, floods, hurricanes, fires, sea level rise, you name it. Some places will become unlivable. Some places will become impoverished. ....

...live another 30-50 years to really start experiencing it...

Exactly same thing was said 30 years ago, and 50 years ago...

But this is a standard "apocalyptic scare tactics" ... make the nightmare not close enough that you can get caught in the lie, and not far enough off that individuals won't experience it.

You forgot to bring up your “global cooling is the biggest threat to our planet” theory.

Ever since Biden picked Harris to be his VP candidate for the Democrat ticket, there's been two questions in the back of my mind:

Will Kamala satisfy the progressives of the party? Will a Biden/Harris ticket bring out the progressives of the party?

I think yes. I think that the progressives of the party learned their mistake in 2016 by not voting for Clinton. They may have not liked her, but they HATE TRUMP. They may not like Biden and Harris but the progressives of the party HATE TRUMP.

I personally think she won't satisfy the progressives, neither will Biden, but they will swallow their pride and accept them cause they're not Trump.

Any thoughts?
I have a third question, which I think is the most important.

Can she ride Hillary's broomstick without falling off, like Hillary did?

Depends on how hard Putin pushes her.

I don't think he has a personal vendetta against Kamala like he did with Hillary, so maybe he won't push so hard.

She's not to the left of Bernie on any of those things.  

She is in favor of mandatory gun confescation ("buybacks").
Only AR-15s.  (fun fact: She's a gun owner.)



She wants to ban private health insurance via Medicare for All
Her medicare for all health care proposal did not ban private insurance neither did her modified version.


She is in favor of open borders.

“We can’t have open borders. We need to have border security, all nations do.”
- Kamala Harris, March Debate


She wants college to be "free" for everyone
She wants community college to be free.  A far cry from Bernies plan.

Is this a new interview or am I thinking of the .... interesting.. axios interview? Haven't seen the Fox one if it's new.

I was thinking about the one with Chris Wallace a few weeks ago. The Axios one was interesting too.



I can't wait for this scene in the movie.  I just now realized that Trumps first instinct was to challenge Joe to a test he already took...classic Trump.


Quote
WALLACE:  But I've got to tell you, if I may, sir, respectfully, in the Fox poll, they asked people, who is more competent? Who's got -- whose mind is sounder? Biden beats you in that.

TRUMP:  Well, I'll tell you what, let's take a test.  Let's take a test right now. Let's go down, Joe and I will take a test. Let him take the same test that I took.

WALLACE:  Incidentally, I took the test too when I heard that you passed it.

TRUMP:  Yeah, how did you do?

WALLACE:  It's not – well it's not that hardest test. They have a picture and it says “what’s that” and it’s an elephant.

TRUMP:  No no no...

TRUMP:  You see, that's all misrepresentation.

WALLACE:  Well, that's what it was on the web.

TRUMP:  It's all misrepresentation. Because, yes, the first few questions are easy, but I'll bet you couldn't even answer the last five questions. I'll bet you couldn't, they get very hard, the last five questions.

WALLACE:  Well, one of them was count back from 100 by seven.

TRUMP:  Let me tell you...

WALLACE:  Ninety-three.

TRUMP: ... you couldn't answer -- you couldn't answer many of the questions.

WALLACE:  Ok, what's the question?

TRUMP:  I'll get you the test, I'd like to give it. I'll guarantee you that Joe Biden could not answer those questions.

WALLACE:  OK.

TRUMP:  OK. And I answered all 35 questions correctly.

Harris is in no way moderate. By some metrics, she is to the left of Sanders

Am I missing a joke, like her desk in the senate was to Bernies left or something?  

When black children were being poisoned by high lead levels in Flint, Obama flew in for a publicity stunt instead of helping the community by declaring an emergency.

He declared a state of emergency in Jan 2016, about 5 months before his first visit.  "Obama declared an emergency and never fixed it" is a common criticism you might have been going for.

There are many prominent Democrats who are calling for Biden to not debate Trump.
That's not what I said.
2710  Other / Politics & Society / Re: [BET] Trump or not Trump 2020, eddie13 vs suchmoon on: August 13, 2020, 05:20:06 PM
There is an argument for a 4th debate in which Trump debates Harris and Pence debates Biden. This would allow Americans to see a contrast between who would be president if their candidate were to be elected.

Is this coming from Trump/Rudy?  I can't find anything other than that letter Rudy sent requesting all new dates, a 4th Biden/Trump debate and hand picked moderators.

I think it's pretty clear Trump is approaching the debates the same as the election.  Do everything he can to control it (Rudys letter for example) and discredit the entire process so that he can get bonus points for performing the way he does 'in spite of'.  Basically same thing he does with elections.  Convince enough people you're a victim before hand and the downside decreases/upside increases.

They've also already laid some good ground work by claiming over and over that Biden doesn't want to debate him and is trying to get out of it (fabricated) for when he makes his inevitable ridiculous requests and Biden says no.

She won't have many opportunities to as VP, other than breaking Senate ties she really won't have much tangible power.  Although the progressives would be satisfied if she performs well in the VP debate I suppose.

If Biden wins and the Dems hold the house and flip the senate there will probably be plenty of times the progressives complain about the more moderate administrations policies.  Any dem drama will seem really tame though.

In response to the inevitable "Biden has 1 foot in the grave and can't even tie his shoes, he'll be removed from office or dead by Spring!" post:

Biden and Kamala are pretty close on most things so I don't think Kamala taking over would change much policy-wise.

I see they did pay you after more than 50 days.

It was hackerone that paid him, not sportsbet.io

There's really no need to keep up the charade anymore, by the way.  It takes only a minute to scan your post history and see that you're acting like you know a lot more about these kind of things than you actually do.
Hi!
No no. You did not understood the whole process. Steve has fully explained the process in above post.
The SB must pay them yearly contract fee and top up their balance on hackerone so that if any hacker reports some vulnerability about SB then hackerone can pay them after investigating the bug.

In my case there are two scenario possible:

1. The contract of coingaming with hackerone was over and coingaming was not aware about it.

2. The top up balance was over and coingaming was confused in this.

I really never endorse such a waiting time. I have been doing hacking since 2 yeras now and most of bugs gets triaged and tesolved in 2 to 3 days and bounty is paid to hacker immediately.

This was a learning scene for sportsbet.io and I hope it wont happen again.

Regarding steve I am happy that he went ahead and resolved it after I started posting on his thread.

Anyways , all is well that ends well.

It was hackerone that paid you, not sportsbet.io  That's why everyone kept saying that to you over and over and over.

There was no need to harass customer support about it or throw a tantrum here.  When you launch these public attacks against sites while trying to get them to pay you money you become an extortionist. They pay you, or you waste a ton of their time and spam the forum trying to convince people not to trust them.  

Hopefully this was the one time that the issue you were trying to get paid for wasn't total bullshit.  
2714  Other / Meta / Re: VOD should be removed from default trust for systematic abuse of his position on: August 12, 2020, 08:45:53 AM
So in short, what you are saying is I should compile all of the evidence that what I am accused of, in spite of it never being elaborated on by Vod, is not true? What? You might address that to Vod, because he has substantiated ZERO of the claims against me which he has used as an excuse to abuse the trust system against me in retaliation.

Last I checked accusers were supposed to prove their accusations, not vice versa, but maybe you know better.

Yes you should. You clearly doesn't know how this works. Even if you are innocent, you still have to prove your innocence to the judge (aka theymos) otherwise you're going to lose, that's the reality we live in.

That's why you should compile evidences instead of just accusing him with baseless statement. Just compile yours and there's not going to be a problem. It's clear that Vod won't do that for you. You have to do it yourself.

P.S. Theymos clearly doesn't give a fuck. Vod will remain his secret embarrassment because he refuses to take responsibility for propping him up.

Yes, Theymos won't give a fuck if you scatter your evidences page by page. Do you think he have time reading this thread one by one? No.

Also, I'm curious on what tag did he not elaborate for you? is it the tag at the top?




Tecshare thinks Theymos designed parts of the trust system to fuck him and the mods are all conspiring to take censor him specifically because his off topic posts get deleted.

What I mean to say is you're wasting your time, unless you just find the way he behaves interesting or entertaining.

Does Harris still think that Biden is racist?

I assume you're referring to the White House statement that just came out: https://www.donaldjtrump.com/media/trump-campaign-statement-on-kamala-harris/

Quote
“Not long ago, Kamala Harris called Joe Biden a racist and asked for an apology she never received. Clearly, Phony Kamala will abandon her own morals, as well as try to bury her record as a prosecutor, in order to appease the anti-police extremists controlling the Democrat Party

I'm pretty sure this is in reference to the debate where she went after Biden for bragging about how he was able to work with pro-segregation republicans back in the day.

If that's the case, The White House statement is just another lie meant to divide and make people talk about racist Joe Biden (plus the whole 'i'm not a racist YOU ARE A RACIST' card).  In reality Kamala prefaced her statement by explicitly saying she was not accusing Biden of being racist.  As for the apology, it was for saying nice things about the senators he worked with.  He did make it, she accepted it.



cliffs:

WhiteHouse says Kamala called Joe Biden a racist and asked for an apology she never received even though Kamala made it clear she did not think Biden was racist.  Biden later apologized (Kamala accepted) for what he said about the racist senators and explained he was just trying to make the point that he had experience working people across the aisle despite their disagreements.



And you can't just show up with a fake ID at a polling place and say "let me vote." Your name has to be on a list of registered voters.

I think there are like 5 states total that even require an ID.  The 'omg fake ids = proof election is rigged!' argument is pretty idiotic even by 2020 standards.  If anything all they're doing is making voter id laws seem useless.


2717  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Black Crimes Matter on: August 11, 2020, 03:45:37 PM

There are ~40 million black Americans.

In 2018, about 2.8 million were arrested (not convicted).

178k of the 2.8 million arrests were for violent crimes.

In other words:
39,822,000 blacks were not arrested for a violent crime and 37,200,000 blacks were not arrested at all.

0.4 % of black people were arrested for violent crimes.

99.6 % were not.

You get the picture?

This thread is a great example of why millions of people around the world are protesting the way black people are treated in general.

As long as Trump is within margins of Joe Biden in GA and TX in the polls, he'll take the states. In 2016, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania state polling had him down by 4 points in some polls but he was still able to win them.

He's basically on the edge of the MOE in most polls right now.  Definitely still has a shot but assuming that Trump will win because he's down in the polls less than the margin of error seems like a mistake.

That map shows Biden flipping every battle ground state
No it doesn't.



making GA a toss up, that hasn’t voted Democrat in two decades, and makes TX a lean trump state, that hasn’t voted Democrat in four decades (and no democrat has come within 10 points of winning in at least two decades).

The model is based on recent polling data.  Here are some results of recent polls in GA and TX:









Frankly, at best that map is wishful thinking and more realistically that map is fantasy.

Frankly,  I think Georgia being a toss up state is fine and not all the surprising considering black americans opinion of Trump and Biden as well as the results of the last election, and I don't think it would be unreasonable to make Texas one as well.  What you seem to be arguing is that polls are worthless or even malicious.

While it's impressive how effective Trump has been at convincing his supporters that a negative poll is a direct attack on himself and therefore the pollsters must be attacked in his defense, if you step back and consider the experience and track record of the reputable polling companies - you realize there is too much of an incentive for them to be as accurate and unbiased as possible.

Please try to stay on topic. Underage drinking is not the topic here regardless of what your favorite conspiratard site says.

I think the point he was trying to make is that voter id laws would mostly suppress votes and do very little in terms of the already low voter fraud numbers.



Current projections from ABC sho GA, NC and AZ as closest races...and they don't matter.
