Short answer there's is none... long answer you can argue.

In simple words it's true that finding a "best" image hosting site that won't conflict with Bitcointalk's proxy can be quite a challenge. As of now, there isn't a definitive answer to this question.

At one time imgur was one of "the best" image hosting site but time has proved it wrong.

After that ImgBB is working fine until today, but you really don't know what will happen tomorrow.

Last https://talkimg.com/ has appeared very recently and yes it is owned by someone known to the forum has promised to be dedicated to bitcointalk and may hold promise but again there's no guarantee whatsoever that this is the best image hosting service. or there are no guarantees that it's the best solution for Bitcointalk's image hosting needs.

On a lighter note I'm using talkimg and really thank joker_josue for his amazing service but since it's not official "Bitcointalk" hosting so  we're relying on his dedication.

So in summary really there's no single best hosting service for bitcointalk until theymos brings bitcointalk's own image hosting service or may be that new software already has a built-in option for image uploads who knows? Until then, it's a matter of trial and error to find the most suitable solution for your needs.

Let's just enjoy https://talkimg.com/ for now as it works fine on bitcointalk.org. The cool part is that you upload image and it returns you BBcode which you just need to past here. So talkimg.com has made image uploading a bit easier on bitcointalk.org. uploading image on bitcointalk.org is not as easy as uploading a file on Gmail. We need to wait until there is some modern way of image uploading introduced here.

Pakistan team in deep trouble. They have lost 6 wickets so far and net score is just 188. It looks like that Pakistan won't be able to play there full 50 overs quota today. Saud Shakeel and Rizwan are the top scorer with 68 runs each. This is not a good start of the tournament from Pakistani side, with this batting they won't be able to progress much further in the tournament.

It is going to be tough on Netherlands. They haven't played an ODI against a full member team, ever since the world cup qualifiers in June. They played two warmup matches against one of the first-class teams (Karnataka) and lost both the matches. And then they had a warmup against Australia, where the top order batsmen were dismissed cheaply by Mitchell Starc and company. BTW, they had a few close matches against Pakistan in recent times. Last year, they played against Pakistan for a 3-match ODI series. Pakistan won all the matches, but two of them were really close.

Netherlands had a good start today, they picked 3 quick wickets. Now Rizwan and Saud doing repair works for Pakistan, they both have a partnership of 43 runs between them. Lot much depends on how this pair score runs. Netherlands must try to pick few more wikcets quickly otherwise all good work done in the start will be undone.

Your vote: Yes
Have you read the OP of Discussion: "Cybersecurity and Privacy" board + Poll before posting?: Yes
What is your opinion on adding the board to BitcoinTalk?: Security is no more an after thought in todays cyberspace, everyone of us must be updated about what's happening in cyber security. For Bitcoin adopters cyber security awareness is an essential thing since there is no way you can recover your coins in case they are hacked or stolen. Right now there is lots of info regarding Bitcoin security here on forum but there is no specific place where general cyber security is discussed. A dedicated place for Cybersecurity and Privacy will be helpful specially those that are not much technology proficient.

This request should not go forgotten! We are at a state around the globe where governments and cyber security departments are struggling to protect citizens data (that they're not probably already selling to corporations within their nation anyway!)

What can we do?

Support the proposal.
- Vote here in the poll
- Make an official post in the unofficial community vote

I think there must be a separate board for emerging technologies like cyber security, Artificial intelligence, data sciences etc. Technologies will be kept emerging with time and there is not a specific place where we can ask or contribute about new emerging technologies.

Here is a small contribution from my side about a cyber security certification from ICS2. You can get training material and first attempt free of cost. After you clear exam you can  pay 50$ to claim your certificate.
CC - Certified in Cybersecurity by ICS2
686  Economy / Economics / Re: How do you manage your finances and family if your income is low range? on: October 02, 2023, 06:34:11 PM
A man should always provide. This is what we have learned as we grew up. So doesn't matter what your income is, a man can find ways to provide for his family. I live alone so I may not know about it, but when there is a responsibility on my shoulders, I will find a way somehow. Maybe I will have to suffer, or my family will suffer too, but that's the push that I will need to expand my way of earning.
Here's an interesting fact. As a Muslim, I believe in it. So here it is.
The word Rizq is mentioned 123 times in the Quran and most of which essentially addresses how it comes from Allah the Exalted. It is He who determines what a person will obtain in this life. It is Allah who gives us happiness and Allah who sets the events for sadness. He is Allah Ar-Raziq and Ar-Razzaq
Source

So you have to do what you can to earn but Allah is the one who will provide for you. But the thing is you need to try and keep on working. When you are providing for your family, their rizq(Some scholars translate Rizq as ‘sustenance’, ‘provision’ and some call it ‘blessings’. ) will also come from your hand. So somehow everything will be alright. All you need to do is work in order to get it.

As a human our job is to do our best for our survival and then leave results on God. Of course there will be no help if we keep sitting in our home idle.
Things are getting tougher and tougher in almost every country due to increased inflation. But there are also ways that let you increase your income. Like as a bitcointalk.org member we have the opportunity to earn bitcoins every week which is very handy if you have a job or a business.

Why are you giving an overview of a match Tongue You should say something constructive. Either criticize them or analyze the match. Analyses the performance. If you straight saying he doing that, he does that, well, we know that all buddy. Please tell me what he did wrong and what he could have done instead of it. But no, you are writing the overview of a match.

Basically, the rain saved Bangladesh. The rain reduced the match to 37 overs. They already lost five wickets in thirty overs, they were unlikely to survive the next ten overs which you see from the scorecard. Another batting failure innings from them.

Funny thing about Bangladesh and England game is that Bangladesh scored 188 runs in 37 overs but due to DLS England were required to chase 197 runs in 37 overs. I don't know how productive or efficient DLS method is but it is known to produce some harsh results. Bangladesh really need to improve there performance, they are playing international crikcet for around 25 years.

In today's 2nd T20 match of Australia Women vs West Indies Women team, West Indies Women team won the match by 7 wickets. Australia Women team came out to bat first and set a target of 212 runs in 20 overs. At first I thought this run was right for Australia Women team to win.  Runs were scored but West Indies Women team won this run very easily. Enjoyed a very nice match between two teams. I placed a bet against West Indies Women team in this match. I did not win in this match today.

Amazing come back from WI in 2nd T20I to level the series 1-1. Honestly I was not expecting such performance from WI-Women team since its not easy to beat  Australian women's team. Credit for today's victory goes to Hayley Matthews and Stafanie Taylor who both have a partnership of 174 runs. Now WI have a great chance to win a T20I series on Australia soil.
689  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: October 02, 2023, 06:01:41 PM
England is playing very well. 188 total is not enough against England to win. Joss  Buttler  scored 30 runs by using 15 balls. Jonny Bairstow made 34 runs in 21 balls. The score of England is 114 with fall of 5 wickets.
Mustafizur Rehman took 2 wickets by giving 23 runs in 3 overs.England  is defending champion.England won the last World Cup against New Zealand. England can perform best in all conditions against any team and can perform well in all grounds of the World. This World Cup is hosted by India, India is most favorite team to win this World Cup according to Journalists. England will win this match easily and England is equally favorite team like India  to win this World Cup.

It was a comfortable victory for England today. Due to DLS England were required to chase 197 runs in 37 overs but they did it in 25th over. Tanzid Hasan and Mehidy Hasan Miraz were only two prominent scorer from Bangladesh side. 197 is not a target you give to side like England and then expect your bowlers to win the game for you.

Australia Women team won the match by 8 wickets. Australian Women team chase very well, Alyssa Healy played excellently and scored  brilliant 56 runs in only 29 balls. Thalia also played very well, She made excellent 60 runs in 32 balls and pour good contribution in their team. Australian Women chased this score in only 13.2 overs. From West Indies Women side Hayley played top class inning  and made 99 runs in only 74 balls. Due to lack of good bowling skills, West Indies lose the match. West Indies Women team gave a good target but their bowlers do not perform well and made defensive bowling. At the end, Australian Women team won the match by 8 wickets . This is good victory on Australian wickets.

Just like WI men team there women team is also struggling to get victory. WI women cricket team skipper Hayley Matthews was unlucky to miss his second T20I century by just 1 run and despite her heroic performance WI wasn't able to defend a target of 148 runs. Aus women team chased the target in just 14th over. Two matches still to be played and lets see whether WI can make a come back.
691  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ICC WORLD CUP 2023 ACTUAL DISCUSSION THREAD! on: October 01, 2023, 03:53:27 PM
The board and the cricketers, no one cares about the failure. Because most of the players care about money. The board is corrupted. The board does not give facilities to their players and their salary is low (the players accused it years ago). So their players decided to play according to their will. If the board does not have a contract with a player, as other countries' boards have with their players, they won't be able to control players. If players are not interested in a contract, you cannot force them. Players like Pollard, and Narine play in T20 tournaments because they make money from there. The amount is well enough. But the West Indies board does not pay well to their players.

The bottom line is WI cricket is suffering due to this row between players and board. WI once was an unbeaten team and everyone fear to face them. They have produced bowlers like Wash and Ambrose but now they have collapsed to a level that they are not included in even ODI world cup. If the row continue then WI will surely miss next T20 WC.

Well, it seems thar New Zealand women team is keen to win this one day match to have a positive end to the series. They need almost 90 more runs in the remaining 18 overs and this is indeed very much possible. The required run rate is only 4.85 and with 7 wickets in hand, there is no way that New Zealand can lose this match.

Well, if you were betting on the match, you would have chosen South Africa women's team as they have won the first two matches. But you will lose the bet today as New Zealand may win. I usually bet on the weak team if the series results have already been declared and the current match results are no longer important.

NZ women team has won the third ODI quite comfortably today and avoided a whitewash. SA women has already won the three match ODI series by winning two opening games of the series. Amelia Kerr scored an unbeaten 100 runs and was the prime reason for NZ success today. From south africa side Marizanne Kapp was top scorer with 72 runs. 
693  Economy / Economics / Re: Population: Economic strength or weakness on: October 01, 2023, 03:41:38 PM
This is what I am saying, a country that can make its population efficient, that population will become the wealth of that country. India is currently trying its best to utilize its population properly and they have been quite successful. To keep a country in balance, youth is needed for which the birth rate is an important factor, if the birth rate of a developed country continues to decrease regularly, then at some point the number of old people in that country will increase and the working youth will decrease. So population and birth rate are very important in determining the future of a country.

There are developed countries (like Germany and Japan) where birth rate is very low and government is trying to increase birth rate by giving incentives to families. Skilled labor from developing countries find such countries ideal place for immigration. Birth rate is a real issue specially in developing countries of south Asia and Africa. The government can only afford a certain level of population based on its available resources.

If a large part of the population of a country is lazy then this population will be the biggest concern for that country, that country will have to go through many problems with this population. But if the population of a country is skilled, then their population will emerge as a blessing for that country. Now those who want to go to developed countries with the expectation of a job, if they are skilled, then they do not have much problem in getting a work permit in that country.

So being skilled is very important nowadays, if you don't have the skills then you will have a lot of problems to get a job. Therefore, if the population of a country is skilled and talented, then that country gets a lot of acceptance globally. So countries that currently have high birth rates should make their population a strength by making them skilled.

The two biggest populated countries of the world are China and India. Both are doing good in terms of growth with China leading and India trying to catch up. Moreover there are also cases where country is less populated like Switzerland but still one of most developed country of the world. I think population is not relevant, as long as you have plan to execute in right direction no one can stop you from going up.
696  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ICC WORLD CUP 2023 ACTUAL DISCUSSION THREAD! on: September 30, 2023, 05:52:25 PM
Yet we have to consider them as a better team than West Indies for now. Because they have qualified by playing in the World Cup qualifier, some teams are stronger than others and some others are weak. We cannot expect competition from every one of them. But the good thing about the Netherlands is that they have improved their game in the last few years. The problem is they did not get enough chances to play against stronger teams like Australia except in these ICC tournaments. They have some players who never played against India yet, They have players who did not played against Pakistan yet.

The main reason why WI is not in this WC is because there players are mostly interested in T20 leagues and not much preference is given to ODI and Test. We see WI players in every league but there national team is undergoing a huge crisis for years now. May be this ODI WC break will give WI cricket board and players to think about how to move forward.

Not going to lie I am not very much interested about this one. The only thing which I am probably interested about is actually the performance of Nepal.  Because the way they have performed in the last match I think they will probably be able to perform like that again. At this moment Nepal is at the top of the table with a huge advantage in terms of net run rate.  So it is going to be really hard for any other team to actually get past the net run rate if they cannot beat Nepal in terms of points. Let's see what happens. But I definitely think Nepal is the best team among these three.

Nepal has recently made huge progress in cricket. They have for the first time played a major tournament i.e. Asia Cup and if they keep on progressing like that then very soon they will be part of ICC top ten teams. We saw Afghanistan making it to top ten in short span of time. Nepal is surrounded by countries which are known for cricket only i.e. India, Pakistan and Bangladesh.
698  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: September 30, 2023, 05:36:59 PM
Netherlands will definitely lose this match because they are 84 for 6 wickets down already but this does not mean that everything is good for the Australians. They need to look back on this match and see what were their mistakes and why they lost so many wickets when the opposition was not so strong team.

There is nothing to say anything about the Netherlands batting performance today. Only Colin Ackermann is playing at 33 and the rest of the team was not even able to enter the 2-digit figures. Mitchell Starc bowled three batsmen out and none of them scored even a single run.

The match ended without any result. Netherlands is no way a team that can beat Australia in ODI contest. Netherlands have lost this game if its evaluated by DLS Method. There were only two Netherlands batsmen that were able to make it to double figures i.e. Colin Ackermann and Scott Edwards. From this performance it looks very clear that Netherlands is there to give 2 points to every team.

The first warm up match is played between India vs England and 2nd was Australia vs the Netherland. India won the toss and decided to bat first in the 1st warm-up match against England. England has announced 13 player squad for the warm up match against India. But India will field their full 15 player squad against England. England has some brilliant players like Dawid Malan, Joe Root, Harry Brook, Jos Buttler and Ben Stokes. England are favourite to win this match because England is the defending champions of World Cup 19. The second Australia vs Netherlands Warm-up is also Delay Due To Rain.


Two warm up matches to be played today between India/England and Australia/Netherlands. Both games games delayed due to rain, Thiruvananthapuram and Guwahati are venues for these games and both receiving rainfall today. From this we can conclude that ODI WC will also be affected by rain just like Asia cup was ruined by the rain.

New Zealand won the today’s match against Pakistan. In the 2nd match, Bangladesh won against Sri Lanka. People think that Pakistan and Sri Lanka will win but here will get the opposite results.

Pakistan lost because Shaheen was injured, that’s why he didn’t play today’s match and New Zealand won because of Kane Williamson.

Sri Lanka lost because of their batting, other wise Sri Lanka had chances to win this match. The 3rd match was didn’t play because of rain. Afghanistan and South Africa didn’t play even one ball

Its Chapman once again doing the job for NZ against Pak. We saw similar heroic performance from Chapman in last NZ tour to Pakistan. Babar and Rizwan once again scored runs but with slow rate. Babar is known for promoting nepotism in the squad. Rizwan is in Pakistan squad just because of his relations with Babar and is also getting central contract. With this playing 11 there is not much chance for Pakistan to progress.
