I had a chance to enjoy the match of Benfica vs B-SAD. Benfica's amazing gameplay has fascinated me. They played very well. They scored 7 goals in 45 minutes. And in the full 45 minutes B-SAD can not create any chance to attack. If Benfica can maintain that performance in future matches, they will continue to fight for the title until the end of the season.

yeah, it was an amazing gameplay, but opponent was under Covid, without almost all players, and that was as far as possible from fair-play from Benfica, they could score two/three goals and finish it off, not humiliate opponent in this way

but, it happened, and Benfica proved that they do not have sportsmanship
hopefully, they will not win the title this season, due to this play 
@BALIK, I'm not sure that's something amazing and fascinating to score 7 goals in 45 minutes against 9 players who basically never played in such level. It was fight of two not equal level opponents and I think it's not worth to pay much attention to such games.
Though, I wouldn't blame Benfica players - they just did their job. I'd blame Benfica because they didn't agreed to postpone game, league and federation also responsible for it.
2982  Other / Meta / Re: 'Bitcoin Discussion' down in search results on: November 28, 2021, 10:32:01 PM
For me Bitcointalk.org comes just 4th in Google search results - first comes Yahoo.com page with BTC-USD conversation, then Stockwits.com (wtf is that, never hear about them before) and Investing.com Bitcoin chat.I see such things for a while, maybe half year or longer. For a while even Bitcoin.com was shown above.
And when I enter Bitcoin Discussion in Google search, I don't get link to this board, there is just link to Bitcointalk.org home apge. So, it's really interesting how Google search algorhitms works.

If something hasn't changed, and if I'm not mistaken about your location - isn't the forum blocked in your country (Ru), and it is only possible to access it with VPN and maybe Tor?
Soomehow I missed these news and seems that ban happened in 2020. Interesting, is it still banned? How do people access forum? Is it enough to change DNS, or things like VPN is needed?

Found a few more:

  • Domain & hosting
    • NameCheap is still offering huge discounts for the next 36 hours [domains (up to 97%), hosting (up to 73%), and web security (up to 74%)] while NameSilo is offering up to 97% off on its domains [with different expiration dates (up to a month)].
  • VPN

Note: I prefer to not vouch for any of the above services.
Thanks, I updated OP.
Despite that Black Friday is already over, most of deals in OP is still valid and it will end after Cyber Monday - 29th November.

Feel free to puke...

you can see the track here, an easy bet.

IT WILL BE BORING

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYeehKlekao


and if it will have the same layout it has on the videogame it will be very dangerous in the pit box entrance
Yeah, when track layout was announced, it already looked boring. On simulations it also don't look better. Maybe it's not boring to drive with so many turns, but I don't see many places for overtaking. It's bad idea to put such boring tracks like Jeddah or Abu Dhabi on the end of calendar, but money matters.
It's very likely that we will see some safety cars and it may be big factor in whole fight for title.
2985  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Sportsbet.io ⚽ Spanish La Liga ⚽ Football Pool Discussion Thread on: November 27, 2021, 10:27:39 PM
La liga is back tonight, but, tomorrow, Villareal - Barcelona...historically, villareal has been a relatively easy peasy game for Barca,, fun fact: last time the yellow submarine beat Barca in the league was in 2008 👀
This thing sounds unbeleavable, but yeah it's true. I wouldn't say that Villarreal is easy peasy for us, especially at El Madrigal, but somehow Barca managed not to lose against them for so long. And today's score 3:1 looks quite easy on paper, but it's not, considering that Villarreal made score 1:1 15 minutes until end of game. In Messi era probably it wouldn't be big deal, but for current Barca winning such game is big achievement.
Still, I'm a bit surprised that referee didn't gave penalty when Pique touched ball with hand.

@buwaytress, I already watch way too much football, so, following Segunda would be an overkill for me. I turn it on and makesome bets only when fight for spots in La Liga begins.
2986  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Primeira Liga (Portuguese League) 2021/22 Season on: November 27, 2021, 09:43:07 PM
Quite disgraceful and sad thing happening in Portugal now. Belenenses is playing against Benfica and they're loosing 0:7 after first half. Because of Covid outbreak Belenenses have just 7 players and 2 goalkeepers. And these who are playing are from deep reserve or second team.
I'm not sure wasn't really possible to postpone this game. Or giving technical defeat 0:3 probably is better than such disgraceful game.
Seems that Belenenses players didn't agreed to enter pplay 2nd half.
EDIT They entered 2nd half with 7 players, another one got "injury" and referee ended game because it's not allowed to play with 6 players.
It's worse than watching fixed game.
2987  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Bitcoin Black Friday 2021 on: November 26, 2021, 04:39:23 PM
I updated Black Friday deals for hardware wallets with new offers, and I saw NordVPN currently have have 73% off discount plus one month free.
Surfshark VPN have 83% off VPN deal plus 3 months free, and Proton VPN 50% off on their premium plan.
You can find more BF deals related with Bitcoin including clothes, t-shirts, hats, etc. on links below:

Thanks for sharing it, I updated OP.
2988  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar - UEFA Qualifiers on: November 26, 2021, 04:29:46 PM
I will follow the draw with excitement.  I think Portugal and Italy, which are seeded teams, will definitely go to the world cup.  I wonder who will be the third team to go.
Your prediction was completely wrong. Italy and Portugal most likely to play in the final of Path C. Their opponents is North Macedonia and Turkey, so, it shouldn't be very difficult for them to go through. It's a bit sad that one of these teams will miss World Cup
While Path A and Path B looks very ballanced without clear favourite.
2989  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: List of VPN Service Providers - 2021 on: November 25, 2021, 11:21:43 PM
I didn't include the Express VPN purposely. They have gone down in quality and I am not a fan of Kape Technologies. If anyone thinks that they are trustworthy, then I am open for discussion, it's very important for us to have a list of privacy-oriented VPNs.
I don't use ExpressVPN, so I had no idea that they went down in quality and they're not privacy-oriented provider.
How about CyberghostVPN or PrivateInternetAccess?
2990  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Europa Conference League Discussion Thread on: November 25, 2021, 10:02:33 PM
Spurs loss against Mura is beyond embarrassing. I don't really know what to say about it. Now they're risking to be eliminated after group stage.
Flora win against Partizan is also surprising. Who could have thought that small team from Estonia without any foreign players will be alive before last round. Anorthosis won against Gent surprisingly too and this team also have chances to reach next round.
2991  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Europa League Discussion Thread on: November 25, 2021, 09:55:03 PM
Probably main surprise today was Galatasaray win against Marseille. After this defeat Marseille are eliminated from Europa league.
Bayer eliminated Celtic by beating them 3:2. Bayer and Betis going to nextround.
Other team from Glasgow is doing better, they won against Sparta 2:0. Second goal is one of the most stupid I saw recently - Sparta defender simply passed ball to Morelos in the box and he scored easy goal.
Eintracht managed to achieve draw against Antwerp by scoring on 94th minute. And they are in next round already.
2992  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Bitcoin Black Friday 2021 on: November 25, 2021, 12:15:45 AM
For this reason, you should track the prices 6 months before Black Friday, and then evaluate the seriousness of the offers. Unfortunately, most VPNs contain sales throughout the year, and good discounts are for three years or more.
Are all Black Friday offers still digital or related to VPN and hosting?

I made the same list at 2020 but most of VPNs was share the logs.
I'm getting impression that Black Friday wventually is turning into marketing trick with fake discounts. And sometimes it feels that whenever you visit VPN providers websites, you always will see that they have huge discounts, but you have to follow prices to not get fooled
And I didn't got into details whether VPN provider share logs or no, I just made list and people will choose whatthey prefer.
Most deals that I found is digital, I'm sure there is deals for physical stuff like gadgets, but it's more difficult to find.

- Jomashop.com will take $70 off for every $1,000
https://www.jomashop.com/
It's a very good shop for people liking costly watches. The prices are lower because it's a grey market. And yeah, no fake watches, we call it grey market because the industry of watches doesn't work like any other shop. For example, a shop isn't really allowed to sell cheaper than the original price (to make it short). They have an agreement with the brands. So here comes the grey market

- Hostkey will give a 10% discount on a dedicated server
https://hostkey.com/instant-servers/dedicated/

The point that can stop people is that they use BitPay :/

Don't forget that if some shops don't accept cryptocurrencies, you can still use Coinsbee or Bitrefill to buy gift cards. That's what I'm going to do personally
Added it to OP, but BitPay is big disadvantage. Even if deal is great and they only accept BitPay, I'll skip it. BTW, there is more BitPay deals if someone is interested:

2993  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- Group Stage! on: November 24, 2021, 10:00:25 PM
Atletico 0:1 Milan. Milan played very solid game, pushed hard and deserved to win. Now in this group situation is extremely interesting before last round. Porto, Miland and Atletico will fight for last spot. In other game, Liverpool achieved calm win against Porto 2:0
City beat PSG 2:1, despite conceding first. Had this game on second scree, so I haven't saw it in full, but seems that City were slightly better.
Brugge 0:5 Lepzig. Wow, what a performance from Leipzig. Despite it, they're out from Champions league, same like Brugge.
Sporting 3:1 Borussia. Very poor performance from Dortmund and late goal that they score doesn't mean anything. Sporting goes to next round, Borussia just to Europa league.
2994  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- Group Stage! on: November 24, 2021, 10:17:06 AM
Early games Besiktas - Ajax and Inter - Shakhtar have obvious favorites and odds isn't exciting, so maybe I'll put combo on Ajax and Inter wins. Shakhtar looks disappointing - to be last in group where you have Sheriff, I don't know...
Atletico - Miland, do or die game for both teams, especially Milan. I'm backing Atletico here.
City - PSG. I don't get why PSG is so underrated. They win is rated @5.00. Does anyone planning to take it Cheesy?
Liverpool win @1.90 against Porto. Well it's tricky. Liverpool likely to rest main players, while Porto still fighting for 2nd place.
Sporting - Borussia, probably most unpredictable game today.
2995  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- Group Stage! on: November 23, 2021, 09:59:22 PM
Barcelona 0:0 Benfica. It's unbeleavable how Seferovic missed in the end... In general, our game was not great, not terrible and draw probably deserved result. So, now we need to beat Bayern in last round or wait for help from Dynamo Kyiv and expect that they will play draw at least. I think second option is more likely Cheesy
Chelsea 4:0 Juventus. I'm not sure is that Chelsea so good or Juve is so bad.
Malmo 1:1 Zenit. With 10 players on pitch Zenit managed to achieve draw in the end. Fight for spot in Europa league is still alive. EDIT I was wrong, Zenit already qualified to Europa league.
Young Boiys 3:3 Atalanta. Simply sick game. I think it was easy to expect many goals there, but not so many, honestly Cheesy
2996  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- Group Stage! on: November 23, 2021, 10:09:01 AM
So, crucial game for Barca against Benfica. Good odds for our win. I think that Barca is fully able to beat Benfica. Bayern shouldn't face problem against Dynamo Kyiv, but over 2.5 goals odds don't look attractive - just 1.50
I avoid betting on MU games - you don't know what to expect from team after manager change. In other game I'm goin with Atalanta win.
Also, I'm going with Chelsea and Sevilla wins.
Lille - Salzburg - BTTS.
2997  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Bitcoin Black Friday 2021 on: November 23, 2021, 12:20:24 AM
Added few more deals to OP. Share deals that you caught too.
There is deal on Newegg for purchases over $500 you can get 20% discount when you pay with cryto. But you have to pay using BitPay and this deal is available just in few countries:
https://bit.ly/3r1YwJG

I use this website hosting provider currently and they are offering a massive
75% minimum discount for Black Friday on some of their packages and they
accept Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin as payment, they also dont require you
to provide any personal details.

https://www.hostinger.com/
Thanks, added to OP. In past I have used this provider and I was satisfied with it.
2998  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: List of VPN Service Providers - 2021 on: November 21, 2021, 10:13:02 PM
Great idea to make list of VPN providers. But your list is incomplete. There is some popular providers which accept BTC for payment is missing. I can suggest to add few:
ExpressVPN https://www.expressvpn.com/
PureVPN https://www.purevpn.com/order

Nord VPN https://nordvpn.com/ also offers cryptocurrency payments. There are three to choose from: Bitcoin, Ethereum and Ripple.

In my opinion, it is one of the best VPNs and I will rather not change it, but I would like to know how it looks compared to other services in 2021.
Agree about NordVPN. I was surprised that it wasn't listed in OP.

Also, regarding using a VPN for streaming, many streaming services will block IPs associated with data centers, especially services that offer content based on geo-location. If this is why someone is going to buy a VPN service, it would probably be best to purchase a one-month plan (or the shortest plan available) to make sure they can actually access the streaming service via that VPN.
Good point, streaming services like Netflix don't like VPN's at all, and they're activelly blocking it. Unfortunately, monthly plans cost very expensive  compared with yearly ones.
2999  Economy / Marketplace / Bitcoin Black Friday 2021 on: November 21, 2021, 09:55:31 PM

I don't know why odds for Betis win against Elche was so high - 2.40, but for me it looked like easy money lying on the street and I couldn't miss chance to take it.
Real Sociedad - Valencia 0:0 with 15 minutes remaining. C'mon, where are goals?
about Aguero... apparently it was fake news. Many journos from catalunya and the rest of spain are saying that the news are completely fake, the club won't have any press conferences about it and every party involved in aguero's situation (club, doctors and the player himself) will wait a big longer before drawing any conclusions about his future as a player
Good to hear that. When I saw these news on Fabrizio Romano twitter I was already sure that's real thing.
