What a boring matchday. Mainly there was small countries playing today and these games weren't exciting at all. I watched Ukraine - Germany and it also wasn't very interesting. Germany was stronger, but they didn't played very well. While Ukraine were missing probably half of squad today.
20 more games today and some of them looks very interesting. England - Belgium and France - Portugal should be great games.
Ansu Fait would be the only black footballer to rule football world after Messi and Ronaldo era the future is bright and must be protected at all cost... Way a Player!!!!
Personally, I don't like to compare players with Messi and Ronaldo, but this kid is really amazing and have very bright future. He is just 17 years old but already playing on such level.

Does Pirelli have set of winter tyres? Weather will be cold during qualification and race, just 8-9 °C. I can't remember race in such cold weather recently, probably last time it was so cold during Winter tests in Barcelona. Interesting how tyres will work.

Trust me, for as long as I watch Formula 1, I can guarantee you that next year will be largely different to this one. Ferrari won't be this bad and things will change a lot. Just the was F1 works when big teams are in question, politics and magic Cheesy Wait for the spring Cheesy

Personally, I doubt that next season will be largely different than this one. Yes, probably Ferrari will be better than this year, but I doubt that significant changes will happen until 2022. Well, unless something unexpected will happen behind closed doors again Smiley.

Just read something interesting about the practice sessions of Today.

The practice session was deleted not for the wheater itself on the track but because of the regulation, the medical staff must be able to transport a driver from the circuit to the nearest hospital in 20 minutes in case of critical accident.
The closes hospital if I'm not wrong is at 50km ish and with the fog in the way the helicopter couldn't take the path if necessary and is impossible for the medical team to use the normal ambulance and transport the patient in 20 minutes using the normal roads.
Now FIA made backup plan, so, race will happen even if weather condition will be same. In case of accident, driver will be carried in ambulance 3km away from track and moved to helicopter.

Not much, but I hope it will help you a bit Wink. Thanks for helping these animals, I'm sure they love you. I have cat and dog adopted from shelter and it was great decision. I also still trying to support local animal shelter in my city, I see how much people there are doing without getting paid for it.

You seem to be quite certain there, did you check this?
I bet that CP and Mallow ads = same owner and some of the ponzis are from CP. Why can they pay better than other faucets?

And of course the service is not free. Its funny when faucets are telling you that you get cryptos for free. I have to do something for it (solve captcha for example) and then I can get something - this is what some people would call work and not free. Its not hard work but its not hard earnings either.
Yeah, Coinpot and MellowAds is owned by same person. I don't have 100% proof for it, but probably if I would make small reasearch, I would find things which would prove it. One of details that I remember, one of their faucets BonusBitcoin and MellowAds have same design basically.
But do you want to say that some of ponzis advertised on Mellowads is owned by Coinpot owner? I doubt... You can find advertisenents of ponzis on most Bitcoin advertising networks, unfortunately they are one of main advertisers...
And yeah, you're right, faucets isn't free money. You spend your time and put more or less efort in this task. But word "free" is marketing trick which was very effective and attracted millions of people to faucets through all these yesrs. Like Freebitco.in from just faucet turned into huge gambling website, but they aren't going to get rid of word "Free" from their name.
4407  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The UEFA Nations League 2020/2021 Discussion Thread on: October 08, 2020, 07:50:43 PM
It's super stupid to have all these international/qualifier matches interrupting the domestic leagues in general, I don't know anyone who likes them Grin And all this while a lot of players are complaining with too many matches, too few time to rest in summer break etc. Footballers are super spoiled imo, but they have a point, since they have to play more and more matches every year, which also increases the risk of injuries. But as we all know, it's about money. Domestic leagues want to make money, domestic football associations, UEFA, FIFA, TV stations etc. as well. So the more matches, the better Wink

What I would like to see, but what will never happen, is to get rid of qualifying matches for EC/WC for the majority of teams. For example Euro 2021 features 24 teams - just take the UEFA rankings and the best 12 or 16 teams are qualified automatically, they will qualify anyway. The rest of the teams can play a little 3-week tournament the summer before the event and fill the remaining places. 
That way the top players, who also play EL/CL, will have their summer completely free every two years and can rest properly. This would also shorten the domestic leagues and/or put some more room to breathe for the scheduling. And you would still find 2-3 weeks before or after season to have some kind of national team training camp with some friendlies for the teams that usually are pre-qualified by ranking.
Well, Qualifiers games still should be played because we still don't know all participants of EURO 20201. But I really don't understand purpose of friendly games right now when calendar is such intensive already. I doubt UEFA get big revenue from TV rights of friendly games, national federations now basically can't get money from ticket sales. Nations League also can be delayed to later time because basically it's just friendly games without big importance.
Maybe it's not bad idea, but IMO these FIFA or UEFA rankings is a bit shitty and not accurate thing to determine strongest teams. It's possible to build ranking simply by playing lot of friendly games with weak teams from Oceania or Asia. Also, if such format would be made, fans in small countries would lose chance to see biggest stars playing in their stadium. So, it would be difficult to reach consensus with all federations.
Sometimes I just don't understand why countries Spain, Portugal, Germany are using their main squads even against minor countries and risking to get their stars injured playing against lumberjacks. Using U21 squad would be enough to win comfortable.
4408  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread on: October 08, 2020, 07:29:50 PM
Money is the only one factor. Because for sport club is the only engine for move their greed.
I'm not agree with you, because in one restaurant? 200 guys?
in stadium 10000... is a little different scale factor..

but no problem for me.. go and spread the covid and after we going in lockdown -> mean no games
Well, @Juggy777 explained very well why stadium is safer place than restaurant. First, restaurant is closed room and we all know that spread of virus is easier. Also, there is less people in restaurant than in stadium, but main factor is distancing - it's not always possible to keep it there, also people using same entrance. You can't wear mask when you eat or drink - it's another risk factor.
While in stadium you sit in open air, it have multiple entrances. If in stadium which can hold 50k people they allow 5k people for example, distance between spectators is huge and they can't have close contact.
Actually, it would be interesting to see data from countries where spectators are allowed to enter stadiums, did it affected spread of virus and number of new cases.
4409  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA EURO 2021 Discussion Thread | Current Phase: Qualifiers! on: October 08, 2020, 07:08:44 PM
Today I had only one bet, Georgia to win and it's already. I a bit regret that my bet was small - game was one-sided and Georgia dominated it.
I haven't made any bets on games currently in-play because I haven't found any good picks for me. None of big teans aren't playing today and I haven't been able to pick which game to watch, so I'm just switching between channels right now.
@buwaytress, I don't see Scotland winning today, they are worst team in UK, but I'm not sure that Israel is good enough to beat them.

Shovkovskiy the legend  Grin  Isn't he an assistant coach for the national team, damn they must've been hit hard by covid...
Oh yes, he is an assistant coach and probably it answers question why he was in squad. Probably there was not enough time to call another goalkeeper to the team.

Quote
Tell me yall took Giroud to score at least one? 100th cap for the national team, 1 goal behind Platini, + all the missing players for Ukraine, this was like a giveaway.



That's nice! I didn't had it, but I must admit that one of his goals was really beautiful.
4411  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The UEFA Nations League 2020/2021 Discussion Thread on: October 07, 2020, 09:07:17 PM
I'm a bit disappointed about Portugal - Spain game, it wasn't very exciting and ended without goals. Only thing what I can say about this game is epic Ronaldo reaction when referee ended 1st half 10 seconds before 45 minutes were played.
France 7:1 Ukraine. What a solid performance by France. Though Ukraine had covid outbreak and were missing some important players. Interesting that Ukraine had 45 year old goalkeeper who already retired 4 years ago.
Germany - Turkey, seems it was fun game which ended 3:3. Why I picked to watch Portugal - Spain instead of this Sad.
F. de Boer debut wasn't successful, Netherlands lost to Mexico.
4412  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: 75 crypto exchanges have closed down so far in 2020 on: October 07, 2020, 08:11:20 PM
75 looks like a really big number. I haven't checked whole list, but I think that almost all of these exchanges isn't known for us and they didn't had significant volume. It also depends how they went out of business. If they closed service like companies in civilised world are doing it and let customers to withdraw their funds, it's fine and completely normal thing. But another case is hacked exchanges and exit scams.
It's another warning why exchanges shouldn't be used as a wallet, but in many cases it was simply impossible to avoid loss of funds. If you're trading daily, you can't keep funds out of exchange and you need to have skme coins on your account.
Crypto exchanges are not the only entities disappearing however. According to the user-generated content site deadcoins.com there are almost 2,000 altcoins and tokens that no longer exist.
It's huge, but not surprising number, considering that basically everyone can have their own token now. And there was so many ICO's few years ago, but now most projects is dead and authors of it probably already wasted almost all money they got from investors.

so far these are the only real exchanges that made an impact with their shutdown and there might still more.
Kucoin
I also don't know why Kucoin is here. They'we been hacked, but they aren't out of business. I also miss BTC-E in the list, it was also quite significant exchange.
4413  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: looking for auto insurance paid with bitcoin on: October 07, 2020, 07:43:21 PM
Why not sell your coins and paid them with fiat instead? I'm not sure how the law certainty on US is but I'd avoid any new company claiming they provide insurance with bitcoin. The chance of getting scammed is higher than ever.
Selling Bitcoin for fiat is choice only if there is no way to pay for insurance directly in Bitcoin. Maybe OP want to spend his Bitcoins directly. Otherwise he would have to pay some extra fees - Bitcoin transaction fees, exchange trade and withdrawal fees.
I haven't checked any of websites posted above, but if OP planning to use it, he must make serious research before it if he don't want to get scammed.

I forgot about this thread. It's great to see that you continue to rescue homeless animals, I really appreciate what you're doing and I would like to help you somehow, but don't know how. Maybe you can post your Bitcoin address and I'll send you small donation. Maybe it won't be much, but enough to buy some food for them.
4415  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread on: October 07, 2020, 07:26:01 PM
but why do you think people want stadiums? for charity or because they are greedy?
I'm saying something else

if we allow the virus to spread, we will have more lockdowns and therefore there will be no games

better not to go to the stadium and watch the show on TV or better not to watch anything at all?

we use the brain, guys
Well, offcourse money is important factor, clubs want to make at least some money from sold tickets. But also people want to visit stadiums, they were missing this thing since March. Offcourse that many afraid to attend games, but nobody is forcing them to go there. In many countries people are allowed to visit restaurants, gyms, cinema or museums with masks and social distancing, I don't know how stadiums are different from these places.

In Italy you can not participate, if I remember correctly, at the stadium.

People in Italy are allowed to enter, but very limited number, just 1000.
Maybe soon we will be talking do you remember the times when stadiums were full and we were all celebrating the goals together Sad
I'm sure that things will back to normal sooner or later. Maybe it will took few years, but we will see full stadiums. It's first global pandemic in history. It simply can't last forever.
4416  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The UEFA Nations League 2020/2021 Discussion Thread on: October 07, 2020, 06:12:16 PM
Betting on friendly games is always more risky than official matches. Still, I'm going to make few small bets. Netherlands to win vs Mexico @1.67 and Netherlands win over Finland @1.67. Portugal - Spain BTTS @1.6. Italy - Moldova over 3.5 @1.6. And Capa Verde to win against San Marino @1.67.
4417  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcointalk or Cryptotalk? What is the best forum for a beginner? on: October 06, 2020, 07:43:48 PM
OP, how dare you to compare these two forums. It's simply incomparable. It's like to compare Samsung or Apple smartphones with no name smartphone from Aliexpress for $20. Sorry that I didn't made better comparison, nothing better didn't came to my head.
As you said, Bitcointalk is made by Satoshi, while Cryptotalk is made by Yobit to shill their shady website. It's enough what we need to know about them. And content on both forums can't be compared. On Cryptotalk basically there is no discussions, just pure spam.
I didn't knew that they restricted access to forum for several countries. Well, it makes them even more pathetic.
We need another comparison - which forum is worse: Cryptotalk or Forum.Bitcoin.co Cheesy?

Any updates? There only 2 weeks left until start of group stage, so I think it would be right time to open sign up for the pool. If we will start late, it would be too difficult to get decent number of players.
4419  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread on: October 06, 2020, 07:11:09 PM
we can watch from tv this year.. and next year we return to stadium... dont be greed.. 0 is less than few
And what will happen next year? It's not worth to expect that virus will disappear then. Vaccine? Question is open when we will have it and how effective it will be. And now we have to learn how to live with virus around us. And I think that stadiums in current reality is far from being most dangerous places for people.

Unfortunately now again everything is moving towards the spring quarantine situation! It is possible that the Champions League will be stopped for safety reasons!
I don't think it's going to happen. UEFA and national leagues will do everything what's possible to continue season because losses during first lockown were too big for them. It's more likely that we will have many cases when games are postponed, teams forced to send their reserve team to the game or get 3:0 loss awarded. Like we saw few days ago in Juve - Napoli game.
4420  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Do we have to archive only our own pages or everything we see ? on: October 05, 2020, 09:07:27 PM
You don't have to archive random posts without important post. Usually posts is archived manually here in case of possible scam attempt. User may delete post, but archived post will remain and it can be used against this user later.
There is LoyceV website where you can find archived Bitcointalk posts and much more data scrapped from Bitcointalk. But there is some more websites which aren't affiliated with Bitcointalk members like archive.is or web.archive.org which scrap whole content on internet in general.
Offcourse we should archive conten which can be useful for us somehow. Why to archive things which isn't needed for you?
