There are no issues with playing over the phone these days. I heard that in the beginning of the android systems, there were some issues with safety that could be exploited, but no really for the average hacker. As of now the system is probably perfect for the task. If you use IOS it is probably even safer, as Apple keeps their systems semi-closed and have better safety features.

Not at all. For a country in the BRICS group, anything less than growing the GDP by 5% is an absolute failure - which is the case. But that is only the short term. I wonder if RF is counting on China buying their oil and gas, because others will think twice before trusting the crazy Ivans.


No contradiction whatsoever, US is not at war, the US is helping Ukraine at 50% speed. I assume this is something you need to read twice to avoid being confused about it.
It seems that the decision was to get rid of a pro-RF government and choose a pro-occidental government. Who can blame them?

I doubt that Biden or anyone for that matter care about your mythologic beliefs and your imaginary friend.

I know that you have already decided that what you believe is the only truth and that's it so you cannot even do the basic exercise of thinking if it is correct and if all of it is as they are telling you.

Seriously, I respect your right to believe in whatever you want, but if you have even the slightest critical thinking towards Islam, you will see that most of the rules are based on the nomadic life in the desert, old Arabic uses and in precepts that are taken from other mythologies including Hindi, Buddhist, Christian and Hebraic.

The worst thing is the type of Islam that we are seeing around. It is one that places all the stress in rules, and little in humanity. Particularly, continuous display of religious symbols in public and a massive discrimination towards the female and many leaders who argue that they are there "because of God" and can do whatever they want "because Gods tells them to".  Being Muslim and female is an everyday punishment for many.  It is like Europe in the XVI century, burning witches and killing scientists.

I am not sure young Muslims know about how the Islam was just a few decades ago. Much more open, much more relaxed and keen to share and coexist peacefully with others. You should be asking yourself why now Islam is being invasive and confrontational - hint: Money helps a lot spreading a message.

You would need to answer your own question, as you are the one stating that the US is at war, which is not the case.

If you want to know my opinion, the US is absolutely fine with having Adolf Putin in there, at least it gives a certain stability to the whole nuclear thing. The last thing you'd want is the RF to fall in disarray and become a failed state or come into the hands of the more radical branch of the Orc Army, which would happen if the US pressed at 100%. The US game is not difficult to guess, it is just a question of "winning" the war without creating bigger problems.

- Ukraine becomes an ally and the buffer against RF expansion (not just military, also in influence an economic).
- Europe becomes more indebted mainly with the US.
- More weapons will be sold, good for US business.
- Blocks are formed - helpful against China in the near future.
- Europe looses competitiveness as the cheap RF resources are not coming in the near and perhaps long term.

As said many times, the only winner in this war, if any, is the US.

There are very good reasons to pour money and help into Ukraine. As usual, none are particularly altruistic.

BTW, NATO does not "push". It is merely defensive and joining is voluntary. But the question is not about military matters, is a fight for economic influence. I like to think that also democratic principles are involved, but I guess that is just a side effect on this case.

Wake up the bear?? The bear seems to be the second biggest bear in Ukraine for now. May even loose the regional power status if things keep like this.


As far as I am concerned, Ukrainians have the right to make their own decisions. Adolf Putin has to come to the XXI century and understand that governments are to be decided by the people, anything else is Middleage.

You have an interesting style of writing... for example "when Trump wins the elections", when "Rusia wins", when the RF develops this weapon, when... But the "when" and the "ifs" are just wishful thinking.

In this case the latest stuff is the "unstoppable weapon" myth. Look, the RF already has the technology and the ability to use missiles that range from very difficult to nearly impossible to stop, but that does not matter because the can produce a tiny amount of them, some fail spectacularly and they are more expensive that most targets out there. On top of that, they are a weapon of terror, but will not win a war - unless used in quantities that the RF cannot produce.

Why the heck do you thing they are using IKEA drones?


They cannot seek help, RF doctors have gone away.

I seem to recall from my researching years that there is certainly some benefit on daily playing memory and skill games in a computer for those affected. Intuitively, even I feel mentally stronger when I have to study something new or work in something that requires more intellectual effort than usual. Hopefully, science will eventually deliver a "chemical solution" for the problem, for now keeping active is know to be useful

Current projections speak of a population increase reaching the 11 billion mark and then stabilising or even declining. However those predictions, since Maltus spoke a about the positive checks in population, have usually failed. The resources required to sustain population are subject like everything else to technological advances, and that could include for example the de-salinization of water or better crop growing techniques.

As usual, I have a though on why would anyone sell a profitable cash making machine, as that is what a casino is really. I would like to know more about the owner in the first place and understand if it is an entrepeneur and has a good reputation, in which case this is a valid exit strategy. As Buffet said one, there are many reasons to sell a stock but there is only one reason to buy

In my view you cannot really compare gambling and trading. Gambling should not be stressful, it is just a game and it has to be played for leisure, except pro-poker and the like. But trading is not a game, it is a real profession and done properly, is based on facts and analysis, a different thing is people trying to think of it as being a game. I would rather say it may be a profession.

I am surprised to see this here - as it seems to be more of an accusation thread - but also because Playbetr has been around for quite a while and I am not aware of any accusation or any wrongdoing being reported. I am talking that campaigns have been going on for more than a year and there are lots of players that could have found anything if there is anything to be found.

If I am not wrong there is already an extensive eco-system built around the on-line gaming market and linked mostly with "Twich" as a real time streaming platform. I do not see why there would not be individual betting as there is collective betting on teams and very large prices to be honest. However, I do not see this being integrated in betting platforms, but rather a separated bit.

I think most people t this point can tell that there are a lot of buzz words in anything that is innovative or recent. Web 3.0 is kind of a buzzword, an different people may understand different things and some sites will just, as usual, claim to be W 3.0 just to attract more customers. The key is to see what is real and what is in front of you on a site, do not be fooled for claims if there do nothing for you.

The thought is ridiculous. Setting up facilities that can be perfectly fine in the middle of the Nevada desert or in some stupid lost island in a country that is right by the door of an aggressive military local power is just so stupid that only the feeblest minds can fall for it. I am sure there are plenty of labs in Ukraine, there are certainly hundreds in a 100 mile radius of where I am right now. Calling something "bio-lab" is playing with words, like if anything that start with "bio" is something to be afraid of. So silly.


The US has gained the animosity of many. Most of them irrelevant in the world order, but Saudi Arabia and part of Latin America have made a point of playing either neutral or against US. They do not seem to fear the repercussions, right or wrong? Time will tell.

Guy is guilty as sin, to jail with him and throw the key in the sea.  There must be no special treatment for monetary and fiscal offences, it is as bad as stealing and there has to be an exemplary punishment. The gold is so shiny and the money so green that hard punishment may be the only deterrent for the future wannabies.


As usual off-topic. You have not been around in the mid-terms have you? Would you like to re-interpret reality for these too?

No, that is your interpretation plus a little bit of blatant lying, not facts. A number of complaints were filled and dismissed in all states. Even if you do not believe in all the proof, the content of the depositions, the own members of the RP saying that they wanted nothing to do with it, at least you should consider the level of organisation that would be required to change the vote across several states. It is impossible to do that without leaks and people knowing and leaving real evidence behind.

It is about time that you guys accept that Trump was a terrible president. He was not up to the task of leading a country, probably he is not even up to the task of leading a country club. People died because of his attitude, diplomacy was severely hurt because of his - I cannot call it anything but stupidity. US has lost stance in the world and left it worse that it was before him.

If the RP cannot come up with someone better than Trump or Bush Junior or the likes of them, there is something very wrong in the party.

Saying so over and over does not make it true - just more boring. All evidence, even declarations before congress by their own team and near family point to someone simply trying to take power by force. The US is probably the only place where this guy does not end in prison for a long time.

Even if someone accepts that somehow there was any short of cheating (which is nearly impossible at the scale that would have been needed), the "solution" of assaulting the Capitol is not a solution at all. Attacking physically the chosen representatives of the people is a Coup regardless of any circumstance. In most countries it gets you life in prison, in some a firing squad.

It is false logic ("Ukraine made itself stronger, thus they were not going to comply" False, Ukraine had all reasons to get stronger since the RF had shown clear intent of using violence to achieve its objectives).

The Minsk agreements are pretty much an unconditional surrender and a treaty that is imposed like that does only hold while the balance of power holds. There have been many comments already on who broke what in the agreements. Adolf Putin is not neutral to this.

These are the rules for all female in Muslims extremist regimes, you do not need to travel to 1914. Even in moderate regimes, the rules are implemented effectively to fully control the life of women, except that they are actually more stringent than the ones you have published.

The free world is at risk of going back to those ridiculous rules as there are many fundamentalists, including Christian fundamentalist that would be happy to have that set of demands of women.


You should not confuse the Christian mythology with reality. Please, go to a qualified person for your treatment if you are also hearing voices.  And NO, your priest is not a qualified person for that.


Women have had jobs since the beginning of time - a completely different thing is getting paid for said jobs. Women in 1914 had a limited choice of works - very very limited - factories, teaching, nannies, secretaries,... And they could only keep working if married with permission with the husband.

Women who dyed their hair, went with random guys, etc... were pretty much excluded from social circles as that was considered immoral. Obviously a teacher cannot, even nowadays, show an unsocial behaviour in private life - except that now none of that would be unsocial.

All that you are "discovering" by reading the rules is well known history, there is no need to re-analyse the wheel.

You are implying that there is not freedom of expression already or that is somehow inadequately limited. This is pretty much how the narrative of the Trumpublican party is now. Elon has mixed politics and business certainly, declared several times in lines dangerously close to justifying a coup, so this is not me.

Permanently banning Trump from Twitter is based on the conditions of use. Basically calling for an assault on the location of a governing body when they were choosing the next President. A ban from Twitter has rarely been more deserved.

He stands with Ukrainian civilians, which is perfectly all right. Not every RF citizen is evil - in fact most of them just want to live their lives in peace and prosper like anyone else in the world. The problem is the army and the chief psychos, along with the senile Putin. I reckon that RF population should seriously consider doing something about their government, but in a country with an 11% military spending that may be quite a challenge.
