I've been thinking about getting a drone, live video is probably a good feature to have though except they cost lots more

Do you still surf? It would be pretty sweet if you were to make a drone video of you surfing. Cool

It would've been cool to make some of my friends and I rock climbing back in the day.

The juicy melons avatar is fine and all, but I've been thinking a lot about the ones Vod posted and have decided to give them a try now. Tongue

I also changed my personal message back to what it originally said. I wasn't getting any PMs anyways. Cheesy

<edit> I made the change before I made this post, but it still hasn't taken effect. Anyone know how long it takes?

Not long ago there was a member, WoodCollector, that made claims about the coins he was selling as being hand carved. After his claim was deemed questionable, he was unable to provide adequate proof of its authenticity and was even eventually banned from the forum.

He wasn't banned from the forum. Scammers aren't banned. He even posted a "treasure hunt" recently https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1011340.msg10971986#msg10971986 (obviously bullshit).
I could've sworn he got banned. Perhaps it was a temp ban? Thanks for the update.

It is not lost on me how you've avoided posting anything that would substantiate any of your claims throughout this entire thread. Now, this isn't even necessarily a problem, but you've tried to substantiate your claims by dragging other people into it (like Vod) instead of simply providing real proof. I'm surprised this behavior doesn't warrant you negative trust.

You say "you checked", yet failed to provide the very link that would prove your claim of Vod seeing/posting a pic of you. It would've been so easy to include the link in your post, since "you checked", but instead you just carry on avoiding such simple steps to prove your authenticity.

You also avoided posting a link to your music page (which you say has pics of you) by saying, "no point in plugging my page to the wrong demographic", which is clearly just another evasion tactic.



It's not an evasion tactic, Its just that no one else in this entire forum is being asked to "prove" anything.
I was telling the truth about Vod and the pic, why do you automatically believe him instead of me? And why do you guys always need proof of EVERYTHING? It must be exhausting to live that way Sad anyway, chill, I'll quote King Vod's post below, as PROOF since it's oh so IMPORTANT...

People who make claims are constantly being asked for proof. Whenever I make a statement, I think someone may dispute, I often try to include a link to support that claim. This is just common sense to me and the best way to pre-emptively avoid arguments or suspicion.

Not long ago there was a member, WoodCollector, that made claims about the coins he was selling as being hand carved. After his claim was deemed questionable, he was unable to provide adequate proof of its authenticity and was even eventually banned from the forum.

You are not required to prove you are a girl, unless you want people to believe you, but once you drag other people into the matter, and they deny it, then it is definitely best that you provide proof. You never did confirm that the pic Vod posted was indeed of you, so it's no wonder no-one believed they've seen an actual pic of you yet.

After doing some investigating of my own, and although the evidence I found is not 100% conclusive, I have reason to believe that that picture is really you. Don't worry, I'm not going to "dox" you or anything, because you haven't done anything to warrant it and I feel it's your absolute right to have your information remain private. Yet, I'm not at all sure why you haven't shared more information about yourself here, as (from what I've found) it appears you don't have a problem with maintaining a public presence. Regardless, I really enjoyed your music videos and urge you to share them. I even like the video I watched of you making homemade gnocchi and sauce! I just couldn't believe you used powdered potatoes and a metal spoon to mix it in a nonstick pot!

Well I checked and not only you saw a pic of me Mr Vod, you POSTED a pic of me on this very forum. However, this was back in December last year so I don't expect you to remember doing so .
I'm just pointing out I was right. Also, an apology -for calling me a liar- would be nice, but it's not mandatory I guess Smiley

When you make a bold statement like that, you should back it up with a link.

Where is this picture I posted of you?

Memory loss hey Vod? Smiley

CA Residents Fined $500 a Day for Long Showers While Big Business Gets Special Treatment
Quote
“It is striking that his executive order refines restrictions to the urban sector that consumes only 20 percent of California’s water and leaves the agricultural sector, which consumes 80 percent of the water, untouched at least for the moment,” said Mark Hertsgaard, an environmental journalist and author who lives in San Francisco. “You can’t leave 80 percent of the problem off the table.”
Quote
The large question of why only individual citizens are bearing the burden of the new water restrictions, while big business is allowed to continue unabated with business as usual, due to the emergency order having no effect on them, remains to be answered.

High water use industries such as Nestle, which bottles over 200 million gallons of water per year, and frack-mining, which uses 70 million gallons-per-year, are both exempt from the new California water restrictions.

Guest host Martha Raddatz highlighted for Brown that there’s “More water used for almond production than is used by all residents and businesses in San Francisco and Los Angeles combined,” as the almond industry uses over 1.1 trillion gallons of water yearly.

Ahhh shit lol. Thanks a fucking lot Vod.

This is an untimely coincidence. Unfortunately, my entire network is offline, not just the best part. I'm getting support emails constantly and I only just woke up to do anything about it.

Oh, God! Looks like the whole internet wants to blame you and the site is under DoS attack  Cheesy
This isn't a DoS attack - other things on ceriat.net get many orders of magnitude more requests than this silly button.

This looks like a hardware failure - I won't know until I get home.
Why make it complicated? Just blame Vod!
316  Other / Off-topic / Re: [Brain Teaser] Three doors on: April 08, 2015, 02:43:18 PM
@(oYo) I'm not going to insist more after this, but let me just say this: you can't see the problem as being separate in before and after the host opens the doors. If you do it's like you're starting the game at that time. But you didn't, you have to start when you choose the first door. And you have to see that the host doesn't choose 2 random doors. He chooses your door to leave closed and another one that has the prize if you missed. Your door here has 33% chance of having the prize.
So when the host opens the empty door, you are right in saying that it has 0% chance of having the prize. But you don't distribute its probability equally to the 2 doors remaining. You add it to the other door the host chose. That door has 66% chance of having the prize, not 50%. The one you chose has only 33% as before.

If it isn't like this, then how do you explain the image that was posted above and that others talked about already?

That's very clever thanks for sharing this quiz Smiley. On the Wikipedia link you've shared this graphic explains it well:



I can actually understand how it works now Grin.

Like this you win in 2 out of 3 situations if you change to the other door. So if the position of the car is always random you have a 66% chance of winning.

@criptix ah sorry, I misunderstood what you were saying.
That graphic is a misrepresentation of your choices (like I've already stated), unless of course you're retarded and insist on choosing the revealed door. Just eliminate the line with the revealed door and you'll automatically understand why there's a 1/2 chance, not 1/3. Fudging the percentages to make it seem like one choice now has a 66% chance is a semantic fallacy. Unless you picked the revealed door to begin with, the only thing you accomplish by switching doors is making more work for yourself.

The following riddle is also a masterpiece of equivocation. The trick to solving this riddle is in simply understanding this fact.
Quote
Three men rent a hotel room. Each pays $10 for a total of $30 spent on the room. The next day the hotel owner tells the three men that they over paid for the room as it only costs $25. The three men tell the owner to give them each a dollar back and he can keep two dollars.

If you do the math, each man paid $9 a piece for the room for a total of $27. The owner kept $2 which brings the total to $29.

The question is where did the other dollar go?

Indian police to use pepper-spraying drones on unruly protesters
Quote
The city's police force has bought five drones, costing about 600,000 rupees ($9,600) each, with their introduction planned for later this month, he said.

The unmanned drones are equipped with high-resolution cameras. They can carry two kilograms (4.4 pounds) of pepper and fly within a one-kilometre radius of their operator.

Lucknow police have previously used drones for aerial surveillance including during religious festivals in the city, the capital of Uttar Pradesh state.

I like the girls in pics 4 and 6, but 5 gets you 2 for 1 so it's a tough decision. Undecided

I've always wanted a threesome, so I guess I'll choose pic #5.

[BTW, it's been 2 weeks since you posted in your other contest here and you still haven't announced any update.]

Now that other thread is gone. What gives? Huh

I did give you a response there, where I said you've won 9000 huge.

But the game is gone now...  Huh

Somehow I missed that post. No matter, I just pm'd you my address. Thank you!  Smiley

Your 9000 has been sent.
Yes, received, thank you! Sorry for the late reply.

Ok, wallet rescanned.

Let's see what we got.

This is what I got the PMs for

Mythical males lol. I never sent anyone pics on here, they saw them thru online links they found themselves, and I sent a couple of links to my music page months ago and there's a pic or two there as well. But it's not a big deal and now I don't care if people think I'm a guy, I cared months ago because they wanted to ban me from here for being a "fake girl" when a few guys were giving me negative trust points. Now it's all good so no worries Smiley

Until we have an actual person to say they have seen a picture of fabiola!, we have to assume she could be a male for whatever reason.

Well we'll have to wait and see if anyone comes forward. In the meantime at least I deserve kudos for not starting any alt accounts to back myself up, I've seen that happening in many forums, so you should all at least give me kudos for my über honesty. thanks in advance . Smiley xx
So... how would I see your music page?

Well depends what kind of music you usually like, no point in plugging my page to the wrong demographic Smiley

LOL! Just post the link, who cares what they think.

I actually like all different kinds of music. My own playlist is quite eclectic. I enjoy listening to pretty much everything... except for folk music. (I have to be like "wedding drunk" to listen to that stuff.) So ya, unless your music page is all folk music, I'm quite interested in checking it out. I'm sure I'm not the only one who'd be interested in checking out your taste in music.
