I’m hoping Spurs can do something positive against City & maybe take 1 point. We (LFC) need other teams to start having some balls & do something against Man City.

If you look at the last 10 Spurs vs City matches, Spurs are doing fairly well.In those 10 games Spurs won 4 games, had 1 draw and 5 losses. Pretty decent stats i would say, so they  are certainly capable of chipping some points from City, and maybe even take win.

Random information out of left field, but I don't think the White House has commented on it.

Trump is thinking about purchasing Greenland. He's been floating the idea with WH legal counsel, and different aides in the WH to see if this is something he can do. Unknown on if he is really seriousness about this, but it's something that has without a doubt been talked about.

Unknown on why: Past the fact that Greenland has a large amount of natural resources, but I can't see something like this actually coming to fruition. I'd love to see what people think about this.

[Suspicious link removed]j.com/articles/trump-eyes-a-new-real-estate-purchase-greenland-11565904223

Whether it is a serious idea or not, i highly doubt that will ever happen.

Then again, it's nothing that hasn't happened before in the past, like when United States bought Alaska from Russian Empire for  merely 7.2 million USD back in 1867. It was brilliant move.

But Denmark is serious and  developed country (top 10 country by GDP per capita) and they are not as shortsighted as Russians, so no way that they would do that and sell territory with such a potential.

After playing gambling games hundreds of times, without much effort in winning substantial profits at all, it makes me wonder what could be the secret of gambling? Personally, I find myself comfortable playing crypto-based gambling games, because of their greater level of accessibility than traditional games. I believe that gambling games which use cryptocurrencies and Blockchain tech, are much fairer than traditional ones within the mainstream world. Yet, you tend to lose more money than you've initially invested into a gambling game.

Which is why, I'm deeply curious to know if there's actually a secret within gambling that would allow me to win more than losing? Any thoughts about this will be greatly appreciated. Smiley

I've worked in a casino for 6 years  and one major thing i can say that is stopping people from making money is greed and lack of self control.Before working there i thought of it as a pure 100% scam, but after some time i saw the real problem.During my work  there i saw only handful of people capable of controlling themselves and actually taking money from casino on the regular basis.

It is incredibly hard for people to get out fo the casino when they are in profit, but instead they keep playing and pushing the luck.Of course, sooner or later you will run out of luck..
Same goes when you have bad streak, again people often don't give up, they are trying to get money back, and that results in loosing even more money most of the time.

And it's also a funny thing to see how people have weird  idea how much casino is in profit.Since i worked there, i had access to numbers, and in casino i worked for example roulette was in the profit of 10-12%, in a period of 1 year, while slot machines were in the area of 7-10% profit in the same period.

So all this around casino is pure psychology game, and if you want to be in profit, you have to set your own rules and limits and stick to them like your life depends on it.

According to Gary Neville, Manchester United is actually not very bad. He even believes that MU will win the English League ahead of Liverpool.

MU has been fasting for six years the Premier League title. The last time they won the league trophy was in 2012/2013, at the end of the Sir Alex Ferguson era.

Funny guy  Gary Neville, so according to him it is enough to be "not very bad" to win EPL, the most competitive football league? We saw his expertise in Valencia Cheesy

Not that Man Utd won't win EPL, i don't see it how they can finish ahead of Liverpool, let alone City.Both of those clubs have better players and way more experienced coaches.They should be happy if they finish ahead of Spurs and Chelsea and get into CL, that should be their goal for this season.

@Daniel91 - Pogba is nothing like Vieira other than being big, black & French/African. Vieira was a tough bastard & one of the best in a battle. He was an immense footballer & would give everything for his team.

Pogba is a lazy, prima donna, instagram celebrity.

Most of the football players are like that nowadays, unfortunately.Days of players players  like Cantona, Roy Keane, Gatusso , Stam  are long gone..

That's why i love players like Modric and N'Golo Kanté, rare breed nowadays.



Yeah, great post. I fully agree with what you’re saying. If I had any sMerit available I’d hit you up there. There are still a few old school players around but not many.

Yeah, not many players around that play for the team while being worldclass at the same time.That's why i'm grateful that i was old enough to watch EPL and Calcio back in the 90s, it was pleasure to watch so many  classy  players that were all about the team , imho that was the golden football era.

Yes, it's hard to say it won't affect bitcoin and altcoin.
It's Facebook, with 2.6 billion users, it can affect both global markets, fiat ...

It can only positively affect BTC, as people will want real thing eventually.

In fact,  let's be honest,  just a few clubs can afford him right now.
Real and Barcelona already spent a lot and can't buy new players,  Juve don't need him and if he don't want to go to China and retire there,  he have no choice but to stay in ManU.

Well Everyone needs him if they can sell other players.

In real Barca or Juve, he will be better than actual players so he will be needed on every team.

For example neither Messi is needed at Real but if he will go he will play and they sell another one, even hazard for him
it is quite difficult for a club to sell players who are loved by many fans to bring in new players, I hope this season the transfer of Juventus is final and there is no need to bring in more players. but for next year I hope Pogba will become a Juventus player.

In my opinion, Juve already have very strong team and not sure if they really need Pogba.
You see,  it's very difficult to achieve team unity if you have more than one "big star " in the team.
Very good example is Paris SG last year.
Juve should build their team around Ronaldo and if they bring another star,  Pogba,  not sure if this will work.
You can't have 2 leaders in the team unless you want to see conflict  like in Paris,  ManU etc.


Personally i don't think that Juve will get Pogba, considering the price Man Utd. asks from him, last i heared it was 180M euro and he is definitely not worth the money.Even Reak has issue with that amount.And afterall, that money can be spend better.

Don't get me wrong, he is very good player, but in my opinion not a game changer and  he won't bring Juve CL trophy, and they are after that.

Yes,  I think the same,  Pogba isn't the player who can make a diference in the game, like Messi,  Ronaldo etc.
He is very good player but to expensive right now for any club.

Yep, exactly, he needs quality players around him, he doesn't have that ability to make other players  better around him and to bring trophies, like Messi and Ronaldo.And only for those kind of players i would consider  giving that amount of money. For example, Hazard is worth that kind of money, imho.

I know that he has been often compared to Patrick Vieira, but he has some work to do to be mentioned in the same sentence as that great box-to-box midfielder.

Hype is real! Cheesy

Can't wait WoW Classic to start tbh

If anyone wants to come and raid with me and my admins, we'll be on Golemogg server, horde side

Be sure to join us for some raid and pvp fun


I will be on Golemagg too, but alliance side Cheesy

Seems like those 2 PVP servers (Golemagg and Shazzrah) will be most popular EU English realms.

These Requirements are minimal features, but there will be all different. In this game you need a powerful computer

Not really, Classic is less demanding than retail WoW, and even retail WoW is not too demanding.For example, i am playing retail WoW( and raiding, that is  by far  most demanding for PC) on a PC that i bought 4 and a half years ago ( i5 4460 and nvdiia gtx 960), i am playing normally without any issues whatsoever and that is far away from powerful computer.Few days ago i tried classic on a laptop with AMD processor  and integrated GPU and it worked normally.

Now with the drop of ETH prices many farmers are getting rid of their rigs so you can get powerful graphics card  cheap, making it even more accessible than before.
7655  Other / Off-topic / Re: [CLASSIC] World of Warcraft on: August 14, 2019, 07:11:00 AM
Yeah private  Vanilla servers are still very popular, that is why Blizzard decided to release Classic servers ( starting with patch 1.12)as naturally they want their piece of cake, as they saw that there is still huge demand for Classic Wow.

Regarding asking for money, all you have to do is to have active subscription and you have both retail and Classic WoW available.And if you dont want to pay WoW subscription with a real money, you can always pay with gold, and it is fairly easy to farm it in retail WoW.For the last 6 or 7 years i haven't spent 1 cent on WoW, all my gametime comes from ingame gold.

BTW, if someone plans to play Classic WoW and wants to reserve some cool name, you can already do it, since last night.You can only reserve 3 names though.

OK, about how much in game time do you need for the game to pay itself? I imagine this is farming items and selling them, but is this allowed in game or outside? I remember games like EVE online kinda allowed it in game but not sure about WoW.

Time needed to farm enough gold for subscription depends how many characters you have, right professions etc. The more experienced  and set you are, less time is needed.For example i am passively making every month for approximately 2 monthly subs(worth 30 dollars), by simply logging in every day with my 10 characters and spending maybe 10-15 secs on each character every day, just doing their profession things. So basically negligent amount of time, but of course for that you have to set it up first.
But if you are good and skilled, you can make much more by boosting people for gold, and that is also totally legit by Blizzard.

For new players that can only do basic farming , i would say it needs maybe 1 hour each day , farming herbs, ore etc.

All this is done in game, and Blizzard added option to buy game time with gold few years ago, so everything is totally legit.And not just that, you can buy any blizzard game with the gold(Warcraft 3, Diablo 3, Overwatch, Starcraft 1 &2,WoW, Hearthstone card packs and even few partner games like COD, Destiny 2 etc).

Of course, maybe the real reason those guys went to the moon, was to get away from vaccinations.

From vaccination definitely not, all astronauts were well educated people, anti-vaxxer are mostly uneducated people prone to conspiracy theories.

But maybe they ran from anti-vaxxers. Grin

Intel core 2 Duo E6600 is processor released in 2006 , and intel i5 in 2009.How can those be great processors and basis of great computers now in 2019?You can basically buy new processor for 60-70 USD that is better than that, like Intel Pentium G series that is very good value for money.

WoW Classic is actually not demanding at all, and it is less demanding than retail WoW.

I have know for quite a while about people running private servers without the patches or up to certain patch, due to lack of time i didn't delve deeper but i cannot imagine what "classic" would mean at this point. I don't think asking money for this is a good idea, unless its a sanctioned official thing, but i rather play something else at this point.
