It totally depends. The domain sounds like some gambling site, so if you're planning to capitalize on that, it could fetch some notable offers.
5542  Other / Off-topic / Re: Windows 7: new bug on: February 13, 2020, 07:27:02 AM

Windows 7 with a microsoft edge? I think that was too updated. Some windows 7 are still better than anything such as Windows 7 Ultimate with a 2017 version. Though it may have an outdated Windows Defender (its built-in antivirus), it doesn't really be easily infected with any malware or viruses UNLESS you:
  • Install unnecessary and untrusted applications (mostly cracked apps)
  • Click/visit untrusted links and websites online.
  • Insert flashdrives that contains viruses.
  • Doesn't install genuine antiviruses.

Windows 10 is also vulnerable to a lot of viruses, and even modern hackers/penetration testers often intend to find a way or a bug on updated windows 10. TBH, all of the Microsoft Windows operating system is trash. I do prefer having dual boot, Windows-based OS for office works and un-personal use, and Linux-based OS for personal use. Windows are good for its UI and UX especially the features of Windows10. But then it is too much of an open system and still has a lot of bugs/loopholes. Linux especially Kali, Ubuntu, and Penguin OS are good for both safety and security.



That's the price to pay for popularity by being free.

We can say the same thing for Android too. Open source and an infestation-heaven.

Just checked the page to see the above then I realized this post was from July 2019. Guess I'm 7 months too late.

The cost of living increases in my country annually without fail. Sellers blame the chain reaction from distributors citing rising costs of resources and then passing them down to us. A cup of white coffee which costed less than 20 cents back in 2000 is now almost 50.

Sadly, the anti-profiteering act can't even do shit.

You want the best way to earn without paying? It starts from joining signature campaigns on this forum but you've to work on your posting habits and contribute more here.

Until then, there are faucets if you don't have yourself to market such as offering services. If you have the time to spend a few minutes clicking on faucets every hour, you'll accumulate a few bucks in a few months time.

So what about to add some bar that will show us how much wager we need in order to get higher freeroll bonus? And does it increase automatically as time goes?


The progress is above the payout table, inside the greenish box. Here's the example:

Lately I've been seeing Grammarly being promoted while wathing YouTube videos. You might want to check it out, it's a pretty reputable product.

No, everyone is free to install and test it. The lulu's website is just the same as the > https://coinbistro.com/ website. Sure theymos sent some support for the developer but it's only a testing ground for the forum software. When one day (not in the near future) our forum migrates to the final Epochtalk it will be on this same domain as we have it now.

Wait, I have to install it?

Or is it still fine if I were to register an account on the Cryptos forum and test from there?

No response from support but it looks like my account has been restored!

Wow, that's an unexpected turn of events! But then, are you gonna continue advertising for them?
5550  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Blockchain.com Phishing e-mail! on: February 12, 2020, 06:03:03 AM
If something like this suspicious happens to me, I always click show details on my email to verify where is this email coming from it should be a habit by everyone to avoid possible phishing. We will see something like this if we click show details, I am using Gmail. click that arrow down button. By checking details you can avoid danger.




Sample:


from:   website . com
to:   your name <website @gmail.com>
date:    Feb 12, 2020, 1:48 AM
subject:   testing
mailed-by:   website2 .com
security:   Standard encryption (TLS) Learn more





Yeah, 99% this effectively marks a phisher right away. Gmail is pretty good at this, compared to Hotmail which couldn't allow one to block the spoofer (marking "your" email as Spam immediately  gets denied)

EpochTalk, which is Bitcointalk's future forum software, is already responsive(everything adjusts depending on screen size) by design so an application is pretty much almost unnecessary. You can help test out the software if you want: https://www.cryptos-currencies.com/boards ; the responsiveness works well on my end.

That's neat. I have one question though.

Is this the official development version or just a separate (prototype) entity? By the former, I mean that once the migration happens, the forum will move to the database we're testing on.
5552  Other / Meta / Re: Launch Possible of bitcointalk.org forum mobile application ? on: February 12, 2020, 04:29:23 AM
There is no time-frame, the forum is basically ready for use, but there are still so many bugs that someone has to report and fix. I've open a thread regarding the development process to monitor the changes and bug fixes.
According the last of theymos on the topic we are the ones to "decide" when it will be ready, it's all to us to test it and report the bugs.  


The Epochtalk beta should be made more visible to members. Most of us are kept in the dark and like moca mentioned, we thought it's pretty much stalled.

I feel that the forum development be more simple and straightforward. In other words, allow users to directly access the beta or WIP such as beta.bitcointalk.org and then allow users to post on the current subforum. Rather than download this, setup that, upload logs; you get the idea.

After all, it's just a forum and not some fully-blown web app like a casino or a social media page which incorporates a bunch of features. The core functions are pretty much the boards, ad spaces, spam protection and theme responsiveness.

The forum could always improve along the way, instead of waiting for the "perfect" time to release. By the time that happens, I think most of us are taking care of our grandchildren.
5553  Other / Meta / Re: BitcoinTalk can become the facebook of money on: February 12, 2020, 03:51:31 AM

Be careful what you wish for OP. Next thing you know Bitcointalk suddenly also has targetted ads and is also suddenly collecting every single personal data and activity of yours LOL.   /s

On the bright side, theymos gets to expose those scammers and whatnot Kappa

You only need a username and password for registration, any without any additional confirmations. You can have mine)) Login: pokers, password: pokers


And yes, we realized that English is a priority. We're working on it. 

Thank you all for the feedback, it's very helpful to us.  Smiley

Thanks, I'll give some feedback after trying out.
5555  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Are there needed general (common sense) rules for signature campaigns? on: February 11, 2020, 05:03:22 PM
In 5 weeks with Hhampuz, I had only 1 post denied. In one week under CryptopreneurbrainBoss I had 15 posts denied by him.

Frankly speaking, our campaign hasn't listed any rules which warrant a post denial (spam obviously an exception) but I did plan to send CB a PM on the conditions so we could be more aware of the above.

Previously nakamura mentioned that short posts/ one-liners might have contributed to this.
Thanks for the update. Just wondering, what kind of posts are rejected?

I noticed I have 10 but have no clue why.
You should have PM the CM to ask that questions or complaints.. What I think of your rejected post maybe it's too short or as I have short replies too and rejected. Some of the cases of rejected post are 1 liner post which I know for sure. I have one liner post in round 59 so it's more likely to be rejected and the post quality needed too. Check the spreadsheet in round 60 which the cm telling to increase quality first.
5556  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Warning for all Android users! on: February 11, 2020, 04:53:31 PM
A good solution to this problem is to switch to iOS) But we know that not everyone owns an Iphone, so the most common is Android. You just need to be aware of all the risks associated with installing apps and be responsible about what you want to install on your smartphone.

Not everyone (including myself) could afford a fruit product, but I reckon this should keep us safe from harm
5557  Other / Meta / Re: Request an option to cancel a report. on: February 11, 2020, 04:46:12 PM



Yep.

If I'm drunk, Bitcointalk would be the last site I'd ever want to visit Cheesy
5558  Other / Serious discussion / Re: Is this guy a swindler? on: February 11, 2020, 04:40:14 PM
I wouldn't really call him a swindler, but rather an opportunist.

Established law firms usually don't mind/ care paying top dollar for decent looking websites. But to a certain extent, 500 bucks is steep for solely a site, unless there's hosting, maintenance and SEO packaging involved.

In the end, willing buyer, willing seller.
5559  Other / Serious discussion / Re: New scam scheme on: February 11, 2020, 04:18:53 PM
There's always the foodie call, another form of scam whereby the recipient only meets the person for food or worse, some business opportunity.
5560  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: URL and Hyperlink! on: February 11, 2020, 03:07:40 PM

 Huh I don't understand what you mean. If you copy and paste the text of the link how you could be tricked?
You're wrong IMO, doing a basic copy and paste of the text is safe.
If you get a pasted text different from the one copied, it just means you have a clipboard hijacker malware on your computer...

True, one can't edit the link that has been copied. I was left confused for a moment by his earlier post, haha.
