3461  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🚀 Sportsbet.io - Main Club Partner of Watford FC ⚽ Fun. 🏀 Fast. 🎾 Fair. �� on: January 19, 2020, 09:52:31 PM
I am not watching but it seems like United is being completely dominated right? Plus two disallowed goals for LFC?! 😂

Right, and right. They did have 1 shot on goal and one off, and an almost tap in and Pereyra (spelling) missed, but we should have had another goal. VVD escaped his market, made his way to the front unchallenged and basically almost a free header. 2 yellows for United too, so they're definitely feeling this heat in the Anfield cauldron haha.

Still, didn't like the way we showed them a way through near the end. We're focusing almost all attacks from the left, which is strange, Trent almost no action, and their strongest defender (Bissaka) is there. Maybe we switch in the second half.

de Gea looks like he wants to slap his defenders, so yeah. I'm happy.

De Gea was definitely getting frustrated there.  One of those yellow cards was on de Gea for yelling at the official because he missed the foul by Van Dijk, ironically.  That disallowed the goal by Firmino, which was a thing of beauty on it's own.  It was a great match; both teams made had missed opportunities.  But, @efialtis is right, LFC has forgotten how to lose, lol.   

I liked Watford's outing this week.  I know they left points on the table, but I think a draw against the Spurs was a good result.  They've been playing pretty good, and even a scoreless game was fun to watch.  It seems like they're getting better and better every week.  I think they have a series of winnable matches for the next few weeks.  I'm rooting for 9 points out of the next three matches, but I'm afraid things are going to get a bit tougher after that...

So much philosophical pontification!  Unfortunately no level of verbosity can convince me that "forgiveness" "pardon" and "trust" are conflatable.  Any one can singularly exist independent of the others.  You make an articulate argument, but wrong nonetheless.

3 games left damn...

I don't blame you, but I think you're forgetting about the pro bowl, lol.


I'm super pumped for today, don't believe Titans and Green Bay can pull upsets but regardless i took both teams to cover their respective spreads in a small parlay. For the weekly poll i went with Packers +7.5 but with that scary pass rushing defense 49ers have i'm not sure it will stand.


Pretty exciting weekend!  Many local businesses are jumping on the 49ers' bandwagon.  It's starting to look a bit like "49ers Christmas" around here.


Tennessee has a chance but they need to make that an ugly game, they cannot let KC and their receivers run circles around them or they will lose that game, they need to get physical with them and not let them run their routes, they need to short-circuit the timing of that offence, they will also need that Tannehill has a good game, so far they did not needed a good performance from him but KC will score 30+ points easily and even if Henry has a monster game he cannot do everything by himself.

If the Titans can force the Chiefs to make mistakes, and exploit them for points, then they do have a chance.  The Chiefs are unstoppable when they're in the zone, so the Titans have to keep them struggling to get into the zone.  If there's an upset this weekend I think it'll be Titans.  Their run game is going to be a big factor, but that also requires the defense to keep the Chiefs from running away with the score.  I don't expect the Titans to win, but I picked them to cover.

Wow, Liverpool is a juggernaut!  Absolutely incredible finishing goal by Salah!  They are on track to break so many records, and are now arguably best Premier League team in history.

ManU was the only team to take points away from LFC with a draw earlier in the season.  They couldn't repeat what now seems like Herculean feat, and having to attempt it in Anfield makes it even more improbable.

Congratulations to LFC and all their fans for an absolutely magnificent season so far. 
3465  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [!WARNING!] Escrow Impostors on Telegram [!WARNING!] on: January 19, 2020, 06:17:04 PM
Today I learned Telegram users can hide their "handle" and add someone else's handle as their "Bio". Yesterday, I was contacted by a suspeciously interested person posing as a BlueWallet dev. I totally thought it was the real account doing rogue things!

I barely use Telegram so I'm not very familiar with what should be where exactly in the profile. Those are terrible features that shouldn't exist at all!

I also notice that some members are able to hided there handle.  I'm not exactly sure how that's done, maybe they aren't selecting one at all.  The @userinfobot still works to retrieve their unique user ID number.  That cannot be changed, but it may hidden from you if you are blocked by that user.

  • Always check the Telegram ID of the person you are talking to

Are you exchanging currency, or maybe you need some help from a representative of some service - always check them by different ways to avoid a scammer. Usually scammers have multiple accounts. From one account they just watch the chat, and as soon as a new user is added, they offer their "help" immediately in direct messages from second account, pretending to be a representative of some service. (see screenshots at the end of the post).

Do not confuse the Telegram ID with the account name or username. Account name and username it's very easy to change them, as well as the profile image. Telegram ID -- is a special numerical code, which is assigned to everyone during registration. This identifier is necessary for the system to correctly save data and link it to a specific user.

Use @userinfobot to find out the Telegram ID:

  • To find out your Telegram ID, send any message to the bot: @userinfobot
  • To find out the Telegram ID of any user, forward any of his messages to the bot: @userinfobot

A couple of months ago, Telegram made it possible to hide even Telegram ID (it surprised me very much). To people who hide their Telegram ID you should be especially vigilant.

I find all the murder stuff pathetic, not that I necessarily doubt his desire to do it.

1 - someone is willing to kill an anonymous stranger by walking into a situation they know nothing about on the word of another anonymous stranger.

2- make up a load of bollocks in return for a large amount of money with zero comebacks or risk.

I'd love to know if one single cold called 'dark market' assassination has taken place anywhere in the world.

More likely a bunch of 11 yr old scammers in Siberia have done rather nicely.

I'm in agreement with this.  I don't know about 11 year-olds in Siberia, I think it's more likely one of the various law enforcement agencies investigating Ulbricht were behind the Redandwhite account.  Which is probably why the government didn't think they could get a conviction for conspiracy to commit murder.  The way the discussion transcripts read, I think a good defense lawyer could get the all of that evidence thrown out since it looks a lot like entrapment.  There are arguments the the targets weren't real people, and also likely to be fabrications of the investigation teams.

However, in my opinion that doesn't absolve Ulbricht from actually trying (and paying) to have those people murdered.  That's probably why the judge allowed such a severe sentence for his other convictions.  It seems pretty clear that he was willing to kill people to preserve his ability to earn money, or prevent his identity from being leaked.  I don't know how anyone can justify that behavior.

My first girlfriend ever was from San Anselmo...  My girlfriend's parents nearly threw a fit when they found out we were - gasp - going to Oakland for a - double-gasp - RAVE.

Lol, Marin County is such a bubble.  I went to school with the children of Rock&Roll superstars and Hollywood actors, and you wouldn't believe what a sheltered life it was considering the "progressive" reputation of the county.  Hell, I thought the Grateful Dead was a bluegrass band until I was 17.  The fact that Mickey Hart had built a rifle range on his property just outside of town only fed that misconception.


Also anyway, go Niners! LOL.

Hell yeah!  Go 49ers!

I'm confident the 9ers will win, but I have a feeling the Packers are going to make a closer game of it this time around.  They aren't likely to repeat the embarrassment of their last meeting. 

I picked the Titans to cover the spread in this weeks poll.  I don't think the Chiefs can repeat the trouncing they gave to the Texans.  Andy Reid is a great coach.  He knows how to maximize the talent of his players but a good strategy can compensate for pure talent.  I expect the Titans defense can keep it a one-score game. 
3468  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🏈🏈 The Essential NFL Thread 🏈🏈 - new poll every week on: January 17, 2020, 04:02:59 PM

No, no, no!  The Holy Hand Grenade comes from Antioch, which is on the other side of the bay.  Cheesy


Honestly never heard of that slight on san fransisco.  I used it more lazily as it's more shorthand to me.  What is the reason behind the slight and why residents dont like the shorthand?

San Francisco has had a few nicknames over the centuries but none that have really endeared themselves to the locals.  In fact "Frisco" is probably the oldest and yet, the one most despised by locals.  "San Fran" is not the worst one, but it just sounds funny.  I haven't lived in San Francisco proper since I was 7 years old, but I've spent most of my life within an hour's drive.  To us locals, it's "San Francisco" or simply "The City."  "SF" is a common abbreviation in writing, but hardly ever used in conversation.  

Most San Franciscans are proud of the city; it's a beautiful chunk of real estate, nestled in one of the most beautiful regions of the planet.  I think there's just a sentiment that it's such a beautiful place it deserves the use of it's full name.  No shortcuts or laziness allowed when invoking it's name.  And don't get me wrong, it's more of a light-hearted, humorous debate than it is derisiveness.  Almost a way for locals to laugh at themselves for "taking themselves so seriously."


I'm really hoping that my futures bets on the Chiefs and Packers come through for me. I am thinking about hedging on the Titans as they are the dark horse and I do think they can cause an upset so I have taken them early on to cover the spread. If Titans win, then I think 49ers win.

I was relieved when the Titans knocked out the Ravens, I really didn't want it to be a repeat of Super Bowl 47.  But now, I'm thinking that it's the Titans that scare me the most.  One of the things that sets the 49ers apart is their strategic planning, but Vrabel has shown in recent weeks the he can strategize with the best of them.  The titans have been pretty darn impressive, I can see them upsetting the Chiefs this weekend.

It’s pretty difficult to tell. I’ve gone briefly over a list of accounts created from the 01/01/2019 onwards, that have received at least 20 sMerits (https://public.tableau.com/shared/G2XFMK2PP?:display_count=y&:origin=viz_share_link), and numerically, @Ratimov seems the best candidate, even more so having been created during mid-June 2019. Content wise is difficult to say due to the language barrier, but the structure and detail of the posts seems rather good. There are a few other forum members that have excellent numbers, who also have a large local board tradition (making it pretty impossible to compare content).


If you have some potential candidates that you're unable to gauge thoroughly due to language, you can post it them as "possibilities."  Maybe other members who frequent the same local boards will help with the assessment.

san fran

Off Topic:

Just a little snippet of trivia for you guys, and warning if you ever find yourselves visiting Northern California; don't call it "San Fran," it pisses off the natives.  I heard Aaron Rodgers utter those words after beating the Seagulls last Sunday, and being a NorCal native himself he knows full well what a snub that is to The City and it's denizens.  I'm sure he picked those words very carefully knowing how it would make us cringe.

But even though he was being a bit of a troll, he didn't go full troll and call it "Frisco."  That would be unforgivable, and might cause Emperor Norton to turn in his grave.

Quote
Whoever after due and proper warning shall be heard to utter the abominable word "Frisco," which has no linguistic or other warrant, shall be deemed guilty of a High Misdemeanor, and shall pay into the Imperial Treasury as penalty the sum of twenty-five dollars.

The guy is a total douchebag, he carries some weird kind of self importance. Didn’t he once call himself one of the best players in the world? He really was useless.

Well okay, then.  Sounds like someone who's not a Gunners fan is still a little bitter, and holding a grudge from the 2000's.

3475  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Ledger Live (Nano S): How to create regular segwit adresses instead of natives? on: January 16, 2020, 09:17:24 PM
OMG how unprofessionel from ledger (I am shocked )! But thx for information. The ledger live app is very buggy as well and now this too -.-

Actually I dont want to use a new kind of wallet but it seems to be the only way. I would handle it the follow: get BTC on the electrum segwit adress -> send them to the ledger native segwit adress. Does this work?

Once you've installed and launched Electrum it will walk you through creating a new wallet.  It will want to give your first wallet the name "default_wallet," but you can overwrite that and give it any name you want.

On the first option page select "Standard wallet," then "Use a hardware device."  The following page will ask you to select a device, pick your Ledger.  The next page is where you'll select the type of wallet you want to create:



You can also choose the native segwit option and have access to the same wallet accounts you have set up on Ledger Live.  There's no need to go back and forth between Ledger Live an Electrum.

The image above shows the derivation path for p2sh account number 1.  If you change the last "0" in the string to "1" that will give you access to account number 2, so on and so forth.  You can do this for each address convention, legacy, nested setwit, and native segwit.

Like OmegaStarScream said, I don't believe Ledger Live allows you to create a Bip49 (p2sh) segwit account.  You can use Electrum to access your hardware wallet, which allows the creation of any address type.

If you do use Electrum, make sure to download it only from the official site, and verify the download.

This loan is only to create reputation, if you can help. I Will pay after 1 weeky of fundadion.

There is so much wrong with this I don't know where to begin.

1. Unfamiliar site on which the lender must register (unlikely to happen.)
2. You don't qualify for an unsecured loan here, why would you qualify for one on another site?
3. You've indicated that you don't have a reputation on the other site.
4. You want a loan to "create reputation" which is a HUGE red-flag.
5. Which brings up the question; why are you trying to develop a reputation?
