I wonder why they did not allow them in first place. A large army has a place for nearly anyone and probably you do not want the guys to be very smart in the first place - they might start noticing that they are risking their lives for a meagre pay, a distinct possibility of professional progress, and to the service of fat cats that drive the politics and the use of military forces from the comfort of their mansions by the beach.

It's already confirmed about death of Prigozhin on official Russian media, no information about Utkin yet.

Looks like Progozhin and Utkin - the two leaders of the Wagner group - have died in a plane crash near Moscow, which of course was a total accident, perhaps a pilot error, but totally definitely not e.g. shot down by a SAM.

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/mercenary-chief-prigozhin-in-plane-crash-wagner-rcna101443

You gotta give it to the "nice guy" Putin, this is far more elaborate than falling out of a window of a tall building, or poisoning.
I think that after what happened on 23-24th June, many of us have thought how and when it will happen. He didn't accudentally fallen out of the window or didn't drink tea with poisons. Shooting down plane looks symbolic, considering that during mutiny, Wagner shot down few helicopters and airplane.

It would not surprise anyone tbh, anyone can defy and speak whatever about Putin, as long as they do it in private, better if is just to themselves, and better if it is only in their minds.

The fact that someone casually captured a video of the plane falling is similar to have a public execution. It is easier than having to manage to put some Polonium near the guy, which would have been the other way of signing this unmistakeably.

There is no such thing like cock fight on crypto casino. You can only see this on offline casino,where people do use it to have fun. This game is normally enjoyed by the old people in China and it is an ancient way to bet and entertainment. It is not too common in my country but I have seen it once and sometimes in films where it is uses for gambling. Most countries that loves animal and see them as pets,wouldn't support such game because it means that you are treating the animal cruelly.

Cockfight is popular in quite a few countries. One of these is Mexico, in which the game is traditional since unknown times. I had a friend living in a place in which if you looked or tried something with another guy's woman you could easily get a punch in the face, but if you accidentally killed a fighting cockerel, they could very well break your legs - such is the value they placed on these animals.

I think that what you say is very true, the AI is advancing by leaps and bounds, that is something that is noticeable when tests could be made to play, I have not had the opportunity to test specialized robots to play but it is obvious that things will they can do when they need to or have an objective that is to earn money, and the desire to have a lot of money makes players innovate, learn or pay for having the best AI robots to help them win, I don't know as it works well, but just as the AI develops and analyzes each play well, the AI can do more things, because it Analyzes a game, knows what to play and the odds increase, I'm not saying that the AI will beat the casino at once , but if you can help make the best play.

AI have gained alot of traction this days and lately it has become fhe new trends through which many ofhwr scam have happened also, so whenever the is a new development, the bad axtors in the industry will always fine ways to abuse them forcing people to have bad notions about thise new development, AI have gained alot of success in trading but even at that we have some other few aspects that still serves as limitations for that, but in gambling, i havent seen any AI that has proven any level of success against the casino own system which is design to give the house an edge over the players at all time.

I know for the fact that AI or bota can be helpful in performing some task but then also we cant  tell what AI/bots limitations are unless it has been manifested and in most cases, it leads to losses.

I am not sure AI can actually outsmart systems that are specifically designed to have most of the chances for the house to win, such as roulette, black-jack, spins,... However, games such as poker or other local card games that are not only about chance, but about learning and having a strategy are actually a perfect game field for evolving systems that learn.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has replaced the country's top general and emphasized heightened preparations for potential conflict, an increase in weapons production, and the expansion of military exercises, as reported by state media KCNA - https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/north-koreans-kim-calls-better-war-preparations-kcna-2023-08-09/

The changes were announced during a meeting of the Central Military Commission aimed at formulating deterrent measures against unnamed adversaries.

Chief of the General Staff Pak Su Il was removed from his position after seven months and succeeded by General Ri Yong Gil, who had previously held roles as defense minister and top commander of conventional troops.

Kim also outlined goals for expanding weapons production capacity and urged military drills with advanced equipment.

Amidst ongoing tensions, North Korea is planning a militia parade, and the United States and South Korea have scheduled military exercises that the North perceives as a security threat.

Will he pull the trigger this time? For your sake and mine, I hope he's still bullshitting.

He is bullshitting. The "trigger" gets NK destroyed. South Korea is not Ukraine, they are armed to their teeth and have thousands of modern artillery systems which are strictly designed for decades to fight this precise war.

The nuclear option gets US involved and North Korea;s regime destroyed, likely along a number of innocent bystanders. The conventional option gets South Korea seriously harmed, but North Korea's regime obliterated 100%. They have to keep a whole population in check internally.

He who has to make an effort to control himself, is unlikely to be ever able to control someone else.

Lol. You haven't really noticed, have you. It's more like stopping Putin from taking whatever he wants. If Putin wasn't such a nice guy, he'd have steamrollered right over Ukraine long ago. If Ukraine didn't have the help of the US and Nato - because THEY want Ukraine - the war would have been over in a month.

IF is the keyword BA. IF Trump is elected while in prison, IF NATO would not support Ukraine, IF Putin's intelligence services had gotten the climate in Ukraine right... IF IF IF. But that is not what was there, so thanks again for providing an alternative reality in the name of all fiction writers that might be reading your posts.



So, not a crack, just a dude having that type of happy moment in public - not only not an official posture or comment, but something that he had to take back minutes after he said it.

Let's speak of cracks, real cracks: But BA, which of 39 felonies indicted to Trump would you say is going to be the easies to prove? I am saying this because they are using the RICO legislation - this is used for drug gangs, pimps & slavery networks and many other crimes committed by an organised group.

This means that penalties are around 20 years per each individual involved and as of now the count is around 19. Tell me BA, how many "cracks" do you think are going to happen here? How many will start speaking for immunity?




Really?
I bet he was ordered to "test waters"

Well, then.. waters tested, they seem a bit deep for your taste I suppose?

The thing is that you can choose the narrative that best suits you wishful thinking, but it is very rare for a country that is advancing an liberating ground to seek a deal. Eventually stuff meets reality and is crushingly defeated.
887  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Lotteries and possibility vs. probability on: August 20, 2023, 10:55:52 PM
In this lottery game I don't have much experience on the game but I have seen many people who is gambling on this kind of gambling, but I know that the chances of winning gambling is higher either the gambles is simple or not, i know very well that theirs no gambling platform or kind of game that can be underrated, their is one time I was studying this gambling game called lottery but I was unable to understand it properly, I don't if the Will be any link to study this lottery kind of gambling, I want to experience the method of this gambling
When betting on lottery then it doesnt really need up that needing much knowledge on how to bet with it and speaking about odds then we do know that it is really having lesser compared into

those traditional gambling games. You wont really be needing to be that technical or knowing in depth about lotteries since you would really be just simply picking off some numbers and just
waiting for the draw to know the winning number combination which we know that the more number we do have the lesser odds we do able to win up. We've seen lotteries and sweepstakes
on our local on which the amount are really that life changing but the odds and chances are really that close to impossible.

Yeah, betting in the lottery is simply picking numbers and submitting to the ticket counter, then the ticket counter generates and reports your bets to the machine to save it for future reference.  There is nothing much to do after choosing the numbers to bet than waiting and paying for the entry ticket.

I have been playing lottery gambling for quite a long time. Indeed, in this gambling the chances of winning are very low, but the prizes offered in this gambling are quite tempting, it can be many times the amount we risk to buy lottery tickets. In this gambling we do two ways to win the lottery. First, rely on luck by continuing to put the same numbers in every draw continuously and. Second, we can rely on knowledge and ability to analyze the possible numbers that will come out.

Among these two ways, I think the latter is futile.  It gives us more chance of winning by relying upon our luck than analyzing the number that will come out during the lottery draw.  I think in this game, being consistent gives more chance of winning than rubbing our crystal ball to see which will be the next lucky number to be drawn.

Quote from: serjent05
So in gambling no matter where it is what it is, we should always gamble responsibly and moderate ourselves from spending too much.

indeed we need to do that and we always pay attention to it, but in my personal opinion, lottery gambling is the easiest type of gambling to control because besides there is a time limit from when we place bets until the lottery results are announced, in this gambling my expenses can be more regular which very different. since I played slot gambling. In slot gambling I can spend 10 dollars in one game, but in lottery gambling I can use the 10 dollars to participate in the lottery several times.

At least in slots, you have more chance of triggering a bonus round than buying multiple lottery tickets and hitting the jackpot.  But regardless, as long as we enjoy what we are doing without exhausting our finances, I think it is ok which ever gambling games we preferred.

To be honest this seems to me like discussing what is better to loose a foot or to loose a leg. I will explain: If you are playing games trying to put probability in your favour you are in the wrong place if you play slots and also if you play lotto. Both games have always a higher chance of you loosing than winning. Now, if I have to choose, I would go for low probability and very high price. If I win, I want it to make a difference in my life.

Again and again the same argument, again the same answer: giving Putler what he ask means another war in 5 years. Exactly the same as when Hitler invaded Slovakia and Czechia and Europe did nothing: Poland was next, and the the USSR. Leaders like Putin and countries with a kleptocratic government do not have limits to their ambitions. They have to be left without means of aggression.


You were lead to believe a false binary, either to become fully dependent on the west or dying, to the point where you don't even see any other alternatives. Whole point of heads of state is to foresee and select the most optimal outcome, taking into consideration geopolitics amongst all other things. The alternative was always to go back to how things were in 2013, that is UA goes back under RU's sphere of influence. And you don't really want a unipolar world anyway


No, the binary option is not "dying" or "become dependent of the west", the option is to surrender to Ruzzia or not to surrender to Ruzzia.

Option one gets Ukraine to surrender the people's right to self-governance and to choose their path and simply hand over to Ruzzia whatever land they want. This option also implies a Ruzzia that would have been successful in gaining territory by force, and obviously they would go for Lithuania, Letonia, Poland... even Finland. This does not save lives at all.

Option two means that Ukraine needs to fight for their right to keep their territory, self-govern and make sure Ruzzia understands there is nothing to win from trying to attack again. This is a situation that can actually generate a durable peace that is what actually saves lives.

Anyway, as of today, there is nothing on the front nor over the terrain that would make Ukraine have to give up in recovering territory. Ukraine is currently not loosing but making some territorial advances, while the number of loses and war supplies costs and consumption of Ruzzia at this point are far beyond what they can replenish and far beyond what its economy can handle.

If you think that Ukraine is going to just give up you are very detached from reality (you may want to ask BA to create a club).

889  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are there real sports bet groups on: August 19, 2023, 11:30:31 PM
Gamblers place bets with the aim of increasing their money, they register at various casino platforms without having any gambling experience. I think when a gambler places a bet, he should analyze all the factors before gambling. But nowadays most of the people without acquiring knowledge about gambling, they first search different telegram groups for signals. And most of the signals from this telegram group are losing money for betting. So I think that instead of taking such stupid advice, one can be successful in betting after getting educated about gambling.
Well, I don't know what exactly you means, but if you ask me, i did say that there is no such thing as gambling education, there is no type of gambling education that can make one a successful gambler if he or she is not lucky, there is nothing to learn about betting other than making out time to always watch sports, follow sports teams, read sports news learn how different teams play under different team or weather conditions, getting good at all this is still not a guarantee that the gambler will be a successful bettor, but at least, it increases the bettors chances of being successful in most of his or her betting games..
Out this which I've mentioned, there is no such thing as a special gambling or betting education, as no school, internet or physical based, teaches students how to become successful gamblers or bettors.

Like @ Fivestar4everMVP said, there is no school that will tell you there is gambling education and he has listed all the factors that can help someone to know about gambling. The education I know about in gambling is about how to place your bet if you want to do it by yourself online but even offline you can ask the agent to bet for you and you tell them the options you want to bet , and with time you are educated on that. As to class room education that will make you a professional bettor or a consistent winner, it is all luck.
There's no such thing that do exist yet tutorials or even seeing on internet with information should really be sufficient and when it comes to offline then its true that you could eventually make
yourself that able to learn physically on just trying out to observe or just simply asking it out and in overall you are the only ones who would really be learning things. In speaking about gambling odds and chances then it all matters with luck and this is something that you should instill on your mind so that you wont really be pursuing out something that not realistic kind of approach
when it comes to gambling.

Joining up in groups isnt bad as long it would be free on which you could exchange ideas with other gamblers as well and as long it isnt something paid or paying up something then it should be fine.I would rather make use of those sub fees for me to be able to play with sports betting rather than on paying up with something which is actually for free.

It is equally suspicious if it is free than it is if it is paid. Nobody is going to give you any tip on how to become rich, because if they know they do not need your money and if they are giving it for free, they have to be getting something else in exchange, so the say applies:"If you do not see the product and you are not paying, the product is you".

U.S. intelligence says Ukraine will fail to meet offensive’s key goal

Thwarted by minefields, Ukrainian forces won’t reach the southeastern city of Melitopol, a vital Russian transit hub, according to a U.S. intelligence assessment
...
The U.S. intelligence community assesses that Ukraine’s counteroffensive will fail to reach the key southeastern city of Melitopol
...
The grim assessment is based on Russia’s brutal proficiency in defending occupied territory through a phalanx of minefields and trenches, and is likely to prompt finger pointing inside Kyiv and Western capitals about why a counteroffensive that saw tens of billions of dollars of Western weapons and military equipment fell short of its goals.
...
Joint war games conducted by the U.S., British and Ukrainian militaries anticipated such losses but envisioned Kyiv accepting the casualties as the cost of piercing through Russia’s main defensive line, said U.S. and Western officials.
...
Kyiv has recently dedicated more reserves to the front, including Stryker and Challenger units, but has yet to break through Russia’s main defensive line.
...
“Russia has three main defensive lines there and then fortified cities after that,” he said. “It’s not just a question about whether Ukraine can breach one or two of them, but can they breach all three and have enough forces available after taking attrition to achieve something more significant like taking Tokmak or something beyond that.”
...
The bleak outlook, briefed to some Republicans and Democrats on Capitol Hill, has already prompted a blame game inside closed-door meetings. Some Republicans are now balking at President Biden’s request for an additional $20.6 billion in Ukraine aid given the offensive’s modest results. Other Republicans and, to a lesser extent, hawkish Democrats have faulted the administration for not sending more powerful weapons to Ukraine sooner.
...
While not achieving its objectives, he noted Kyiv’s success in degrading Russian forces.

The ToS are a special kind of contract called an adhesion contract and they have limits on what can contain.

Let's speak of cracks, real cracks: But BA, which of 39 felonies indicted to Trump would you say is going to be the easies to prove? I am saying this because they are using the RICO legislation - this is used for drug gangs, pimps & slavery networks and many other crimes committed by an organised group.

Really?
I bet he was ordered to "test waters"

Improper usage of RICO can be RICO in itself. In this case it's RICO activity of the Deep State, using RICO accusations against Trump. The indictment thing is simply a stay-afloat procedure the Deep State is using so that they can keep on making money through the Ukraine war, and all kinds of illegal, but for certain unconscionable, things that they do around the world.

The point? All the US wars since WW2, but maybe long before WW2, are US government RICO activity. This includes Ukraine. And since its inception, the Federal Reserve Bank has been a major tool of the US for doing them. Time for the Fed to fall, and take the US government along with it.

Cool

Oh, well, maybe or maybe not - as usual you are bending reality with you own views, but, and this is the big BUT, Trump is actually being prosecuted using RICO while none of the cases that in your "view" are equivalent are or have been (which should lead you to re-think, because every politician out there has enemies, Trump is nothing special).

Georgia in particular has a super-wide definition of an organisation, length of activities and purposes. I guess should have committed this type of felony somewhere else.

On the war: Urozhaine and Robotine have been taken by Ukraine. The slow grinding and the operations in the Kherson area do not stop and the grinding is happening day after day. In the first of these, a significant group of Ruzzian troops were captured after failing to retreat on time.

A couple of generals have "gone missing" or "had health problems", one of them in prison - not seen since then.

Nato official apologises over suggestion Ukraine could give up land for membership

A senior Nato official has apologised and clarified his comments a day after he said publicly that Ukraine could give up territory to Russia in exchange for Nato membership and an end to the war.

Stian Jenssen, the chief of staff to the Nato secretary general, Jens Stoltenberg, told a Norwegian newspaper that he should not have spoken as simplistically as he did, after his initial comments prompted an angry reaction from Kyiv.

At a panel event in Norway on Tuesday, Jenssen had said that while any peace deal reached would have to be acceptable to Ukraine, alliance members were discussing how the 18-month war might be brought to an end.

This Trump situation is honestly one of the most embarrassing moments in American history. If we’re truly going to go down this path where government agencies try to jail candidates that don’t agree with their views then we are no better than 3rd world countries. I’m scared for a future where nobody is safe from corrupt government actions.

Again, spreading the false idea that Trump is being judged by his ideas. It is not the case, he is judged because he very likely committed a number of felonies. His defence when he is caught breaking the law or trying to is "this is because of my enemies" - he will never ever take any responsibility.

 - when you are the POTUS you need to behave beyond any doubt of misbehaviours because you have an immense authority and influence. Trump has behaved worse than a Gansta Rap idol.

I would be scared of a place where the POTUS cannot be ever held accountable because of his donors and his sequestration of the Republican Party.



Ok but questioning the outcome of an election is not illegal.  Committing election fraud is.  They literally sent fake documents in pretending to be official electors.  Not provisional electors "just in case", they were strait up fraudulent documents claiming to be the actual electors.  Intimidating election workers to try and pressure them to lie and confess to rigging the election is also illegal.  And so is soliciting elected officials to commit election fraud (especially when you're the president and after asking for some helpful fraud you turn to threatening prosecution).

Look, just listen to the recorded call with Georgia's Governor. Trump starts bulliying the governor and saying that he has "lots of evidence" but he does not share any of it. And then simply starts saying to the guy that he is pretty much self-ending his political career if he does not find him "a few votes enough to win him  the election".

THAT is what is scary.

As Maui Burns, Biden Demands Another $24 Billion…For Ukraine!

As Maui burns, Trump continues negating the climate change https://www.npr.org/2020/09/14/912799501/i-don-t-think-science-knows-visiting-fires-trump-denies-climate-change

Quote
'I Don't Think Science Knows': Visiting Fires, Trump Denies Climate Change

See, this two things are actually related to each other, while the fact that Biden supports ending the war in Ukraine in a way that guarantees that aggression is not rewarded, that we do not go back to cold war and where Ruzzia has an incentive to avoid further wars and demilitarises itself in the process has nothing to do with helping rebuild Maui.


Climate change is something that has been going on for at least the last five thousand years. In the northern half of the United States, they get four seasons every year. Climate change. If you want time periods other than annually, same thing. You pick it. Climate change all the time... warm to cold, cold back to warm, warm to cold again... over and over and over.

When you study the science, global warming has been rate-decreasing over the last 20 years or so.

When you study the history of the earth, there have been times when the earth was much warmer, and times when it was much colder. Maui fires don't have anything to do with it, and climate change doesn't have anything to do with Maui fires.

Trump was right as usual.

Climate change is an excuse that Biden might use to say that it's nature, so might as well give more money to Ukraine for the war.

Cool

Please, kindly enlighten us with your obvious scientific superiority on this (and also in biology during COVId, psichology in the war, physics and any other sciences in general), which of the following are not true in your world:

- The CO2 produces greenhouse effects.
- Greenhouse effect raises the median temperature in the biosphere.
- The average amount of CO2 in the atmosphere has constantly increased during the last century.
- A large part of the CO2 emissions are due to human activities, precisely to the burning of fossil fuels.
- An increase in temperatures creates a more variable climate, provoking more droughts, more destructive raining, more wildfires.

I suggest you travel to Greece before answering.

And back to the war, it seems that Ruzzians are getting grinded at a reasonable pace in the supply chain and as a result in the Zapo front.  Ruzzia is self-demilitarising itself, while Ukraine has first stopped the aggression and turned the tide quite effectively.

As of now, it is mentioned in various sources that Ruzzia has less armoured vehicles and artillery power than Ukraine in the front.

Legal experts have pointed to the 14th Amendment as a way to keep Trump from holding office if he is convicted, which includes a “disqualification clause” that bars anyone from holding public office if they “have engaged in insurrection or rebellion” or “given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.”

So, sorry to break the news to you, but if he is found guilty (I would say when, not if) or promoting an insurrection - which he did very publicly - he would be disqualified from presidency.

However there are other reasons - donors are unlikely to give money to a convict and many Republicans say in the polls that they would not vote for Trump if found guilty.

It's not entirely true anyways... AFAiK, there are some casinos that don't even care about the KYCs anymore - mostly since they've observed that it's becoming a problem this days..
Alot of things are happening in today's world and it's infact, a mojor constitute...but why would anyone be really keen about maintaining anonymity if not for covering up money laundering cases?? So many peeps don't wanna be monitored and that's against the T/C's of most casinos with obvious reasons... They don't wanna be sued for illegitimate ordeals..

That is a pour truth because i have read players' testimonies where they win huge amounts and the casino never ask them for verification even when they exceed the no kyc withdrawal trench hold it is still left for the casino to decide whether to ask for KYC or not, and if the account doesn't exhibit any abusive behaviour in the system,  some casinos will just decide to let the account operate freely.

So it all depends on the underlying conditions that around the players that warrant the casino to ask for such from time to time, but also we have to settle with one fact that.

Centralized casinos have 100% right to ask for KYC, most especially if it is written in the terms and conditions of the casinos.

It is just a question of how and when are you asking for it. If you have the right to ask for KYC do it since minute zero, be honest and straightforward with you client and do not start putting obstacles when it is so obvious that you have to give their hard earned earnings back. It is so suspicious that the concerns are raised right the moment they withdraw that is very close to a scam.

yes, big win with small bet is almost impossible. I don't know if it's true that anyone got a big win after a few small bets were made. but there's no way the casino would give such good luck.
still those who get big wins are those who have been playing at the casino long enough. and regularly they deposit large sums of money.
anyone hopes that big wins will be obtained in their gambling. but luck doesn't come with little effort either.
Even though it seems impossible, it is possible if someone really has great luck so that, he can get a big win. But the next problem was whether he could withdraw that big win easily when the casino would ask him various conditions. Or he can do KYC and wait until the process is complete before the casino will process the money withdrawal. Usually, if a casino asks a customer to do KYC, it must take days until the casino approves it. And that's what happens to a lot of people.
True, but only one in a thousand people can get lucky like that in fact, I think it will be very rare for a gambler who can be lucky with a small bet to get a big win or jackpot and not all types of games or bets can provide this opportunity.
KYC requirements may only be set for customers who have big wins and want to withdraw them, but this is casino policy, so however we as gamblers who are also casino customers must be able to accept all of that for the successful withdrawal that we make.
It's impossible for a gambler who gets a big win and is asked for KYC requirements for the withdrawal process but instead refuses it, even though it will take days it seems like all gamblers will accept and patiently wait.

KYC plays a role in legal sites and it is for us to decide if we would rather be on sites that do not use it, even that is becoming much more difficult due to the pressure from US mostly, but also from other countries. Having an unnecessary KYC and only when withdrawing is probably not the best a site can do to spread a positive word in the future. I think these sites will have a problem.

Whose side is the American President and Congress really on? It doesn't seem like it's the side of America. I'm surprised that Biden doesn't wear a black "Down With America" hat.


As Maui Burns, Biden Demands Another $24 Billion…For Ukraine!

See, this two things are actually related to each other, while the fact that Biden supports ending the war in Ukraine in a way that guarantees that aggression is not rewarded, that we do not go back to cold war and where Ruzzia has an incentive to avoid further wars and demilitarises itself in the process has nothing to do with helping rebuild Maui.
