It's sad. Compared to the good old days where the best place to seek information is the library but technology has and is slowly making it obsolete. Now I'm not against advancement and all that but kids dependence on it is alarming. But still, placing a ban for me is not going to change anything.
Yeah, I remember my childhood when there was no smartphones and only beginning of mobile phones. It was such good times and current kids won't experience all things that we experienced. Now if you will tell kids to look for information in books, they will look into you - dude, why I should, Google will tell the answer. |

Not bad final with dramatic ending. In general, it wasn't most exciting and beautiful game to watch, but you can expect something similar from final. Fiorentina played better, made more moments, but I can't say that they had much more good chances to score. And in final minutes West Ham go their chance to score and didn't wasted it. West Ham won trophy after God knows how many years. And in general, it's first serious trophy for David Moyes in his long manager career. Happy for him. It's only sad that final got ruined a bit by some idiots West Ham fans throwing beer glasses to Fiorentina players and injured one of them. And there we have it. Italians losing already in two finals, now all hope rests with Inter in the biggest one of them all.
And from all 3 teams, Inter is least likely to win trophy, with all respect. So, it's a bit sad that after reaching 3 European finals, Italy will end without trophies. But maybe I understimate Inter too much. |

From what I understood that's even law imposed, but just voluntarily initiative in that tow. So, I think it's pointless thing.
C'mon, it's not even about children who are going to primary school, most of them start to use smartphones much earlier, maybe being 3-4 years old. And it's parents responsibility that they give smartphones to their children so early and completely don't control what they're doing with it.
Personally, I don't like that current generation often don't have their lifes outside their phones, but it's new reality. But very often their parents acting as bad example for their children. Like it or not, but many of us also don't release phones from our hands.

Thanks for making this topic, I forgot that we have Nations league final 4 soon. There is not much hype around this tournament and importance of this tournament is something similar like Confederations Cup was.
I think that Croatia have quite good chance to reach final, Netherlands can't be considered as heavy favorites.
Spain - Italy is difficult to predict, but I'm backing Spain here.

Fiorentina have not lifted a trophy in a very long time, the same thing with Westhampton. Fiorentina just lost one opportunity to win a finals in the Coppa itallia to Inter Milan, this conference league is like a second chance for Fiorentina after disappointing their fans before, they will be trying to avoid doing it twice. If Westhampton win this competition, it will be very celebrated too, they have been struggling to try to win something, this is a chance for them too since the last competition they won in 1980 which was an FA cup title, where they played against Arsenal and won by just one goal. https://lastwonatrophy.co.uk/west-ham/Westhampton? Is that mixture of West Ham and Wolverhampton?  . Seriously, both teams aren't usual title contenders in their leagues and cups, so, Conference league is very rare chance for trophy them. And for both teams it's final chance to get ticket to next season UEFA cups. I think it's completely 50/50 game, odds also says it. Don't know how big factor it can be, but West Ham can be more fresh as they didn't had game last weekend. |

They did not cut the line to Crimea, that is on the east bank and can be supplied without the dam apparently, and they damaged the dam just enough to engulf and drown the islands but not flooding the RF controlled territory. If you ask me, the only thing that does not match is them not shelling the boats that were evacuating the Ukrainian soldiers.
I don't know what they planned, but seems that things didn't went as planned. Some of RF controlled cites and villages like Nova Kahovka or Oleshky become almost completely flooded. Also, floodfing broke first defense line of Russia. And this information was posted by Russian sources. Also, Russians telling that dam was destroyed by Himars. But you must be really dumb to believe that's possible to destroy such dam and make so much damage with Himars. You only can do it from inside. |

That's a piece of great news. I had almost 30+ charts and I used Imgur to post them on the forum. They weren't loading making the whole thread useless.
Glad they fixed it and decided to go with our community. Meanwhile talkimg was made and I think we should continue to use that, it's developed by our own forum member.
I think you're missing latest news - images from Imgur isn't shown again. Just look at topic that you made and you'll see Bitcointalk image proxy in place of your images again. So, now it would best to reupload your images to TalkImg. Even if imgur issue will be solved, they're not reliable anymore. |

I'm a bit late to the party, but better later than never.
12 years on Bitcointalk - it was mazing ride. Now I'm trying to imagine how many people in whole world heard something about Bitcoin. Now you're one of few active memebers from these early days. And in these 12 years you contributed so much here that it's safe to call you one oh historic members of Bitcointalk.
Congratulations with your anniversary and I wish that next 12 years would be even better

As I understand they paid you in advance just part of money, not for whole job? That's not good sitaution. If they contacted you through Telegram and you don't have any other their contacts, I'm afraid that it will be almost impossible to find them. It's possible that something happened for them, but you can't know. No idea what to suggest for you.

In general, Ukraine spent the end of spring very poorly. The loss of Bakhmut was not compensated by anything, the counteroffensive on the flanks bogged down and completely lost its meaning. Attempts by cavalry raids into the Belgorod region under a false flag also did not have much success. Daily arrivals in Kyiv show the weakness of Ukrainian air defense, which cannot reliably protect even the capital. I think Russia's actions near Kupyansk, Avdeevka and Marinka are more like an offensive than what Ukraine is doing now.
Raids into Belgorod region didn't had much success? I'm wondering what you would call success? Taking Belgorod in 3 days? Daily arrivals to Kyiv, you're probably about Konashnenkov fairytales that all targets were reached. But in reality Kyiv air defense have high rate of hited missiles and drones. Not 100% what is almost impossible, but above 90% what is very solid. And counteroffensive failed before it even started, it's more narrative from Russian propaganda, when in reality nobody didn't promised exact dates when it will start. BTW, not sure that we can call it as counteroffensive, but Ukraine made some progress in Zaporizhia oblast: https://twitter.com/TheStudyofWar/status/1665500860791521282 |

Another easy win for RBR without even pushing at 100%.
Good recovery from Mercedes but they are still probably almost 1 second slower then RBR in a single lap in the race.
Disaster Ferrari as usual.
This race wasn't much more exciting than Monaco, even with that chican in 3rd sector removed, Barcelona is still quite boring track. Max is simply racing in other league. With few bad races in a row for Perez, Max lead against him is already 53 points. All talks that he can give fight for Verstappen is over now. That was very solid double podium for Mercedes. They were so confident today and nobody weren't able to challenge them. And Ferrari just being Ferrari, as usual. |

 Top 5 as it stands. Harkorede came back strong in the final round to clinch first place. Congrats on the win! In the three Serie A editions of this pool, we've got three different winners. It was great fun playing with you all! Many thanks to Trofo for making this pool happen, as well as to our generous sponsor, Sportsbet.io Congratulations to all winners - well deserved! And thanks Trofo and Sportsbet for another great season. For me personally it wasn't good. IIRC, I was 1st or 2nd before World Cup break, but after it I started to go down constantly. On final round I managed to go up by 2 place to 6th, but I was very far from 5th place. |

what a round, what a finish
if someone thought that Arsenal or Dortmund are major bottlers this season, Royale (but also Genk) gave everything to ditch them
had title in the pocket until minute 89, then conceived and still were up to position 2, behind Genk at that point, but conceived one more in extra-time to lose the match and CL spot as well
in other match, Antwerp scored in 90+4 to secure a draw and take the title from Genk, who should be satisfied due to secure CL qualification spot
congrats to Antwerp on winning title, they were third after regular season, but came on top in the end
It's one of craziest season ending that I saw for a while. All 3 contenders were leading table at different time of match. It's unbeleavable how Royale bottled title again, they had everything in their hands until 89th minute, but then conceded 3 goals against Brugge - team which fight for nothing in last round. Other game where title winner was decided was exciting too. After Brugge took a lead in other game, title was in Genk hands, but Alderweireld goal on 64th minute brings first league title for Antwerp since 1956-57 season. Full stadium of specators in Antwerp was watching game of their team in large screens and I'm trying to imagine what going on in Antwerp now. It would be nice to see some more big players in this league. A number of big Belgian names have reached the absolute world top, such as De Bruijne and Lukaku, but Hazard was also here. They all started in the Belgian league, but unfortunately there is not enough money to keep those players in this league. I think it mainly has to do with the sponsors present. If you want to keep or attract big players, you will have to look for bigger sponsors and not what is current. Mark van Bommel has of course done an excellent job with Antwerp this season.
Well, not every league can be Top 5 league. Blegian league role is development of young players and veterans coming here to end their career - something similar like Eredivisie, just smaller scale. |

Good luck to everyone! I am in 6th place, with 10 whole points needed to catch up for prizes, I don't think it's possible, but I'll give it my best shot. No bets at all for me today even though I'm super tempted but it's so scary with meaningless games, I'd rather just enjoy the final day. This is supposed to be my favorite league but my results and betting have not gone the same way, it serves to prove that you shouldn't mix betting with prediction  Bad season for me too, but covered some loses with yellow caps. Very interesting last round. I don't remember situation when on last round team in 13th place wouldn't be safe from relegation. I even went against Barcelona in the pool for the first time this season, it's must win game for Celta. In earlier slot we will have 5 teams fighting for one last spot in Conference league. Made some bets for last round, mainly BTTS markets, ML looks too risky. |

one of most interesting finishing in European football is going down today in Jupiler league
Antwerp, Genk and Royale are all in Championship fight, but also fighting for top2 positions, that are CL spots, with third having to settle with Europa league
at the moment, Antwerp on top with 46, same as Royale, with Genk on 45 points
last round, Genk is playing Antwerp at home, while Royale is host to Brugge, that is without chances to win title, Royale chances are best, since Brugge is out of form (Royale @1.6 win is a good pick, but low value), but will be all interesting from 18:30 today
Very interesting last round, not often there 3 teams still in fight for title on last matchday. Odds for Royale isn't something special, but probably worth some money, as they play Brugge who are irrelevant in this fight. Last year Union were leading league, but wasted title in Championship group, now they have great chance. Genk - Antwerp is difficult to predict, I'll go with BTTS there. |

Usually the fans are from the club of that city, that's what happens in almost every country. But not in Portugal. There are usually 2 clubs, the city club and the big club. That is, for example, a fan of Famalicão is also a fan of one of the big ones (Benfica, Porto, Sporting). This makes it difficult for the little ones to grow.
This situation is familiar for me, as similar things happens in my country. For me such things isn't normal when one day you're wearing scar of Famalicao and next day you support Benfica. And then what happens when both ''your'' teams play each other? With such attitude Portuguese league is going to stay 3 teams league and things aren't going to change soon.
BTW, mow Promotion/Relegation match between is played and Estrea leads Maritimo 1:0 after 55 minutes. |

I wasn't able to watch qualifying today, so, I can only comment it from highlights. I can't believe how Russel and Hamilton colided. It wouldn't be something strange during race, but qualifying - c'mon. No questions about Verstappen's pole, but some results surprised me, like Perez out of Top 10 or Norris in 3rd place.
As I understand, rain is expected tomorrow, interesting how it's going to change things.

Twente made serious step in first leg beating Heerenveen away 1:2. It should be painful for Heerenveen to concede goal 93rd minute, now their task becomes very difficult.
While Sparta made little upset by beating Utrecht away, also 1:2. They were even leading 0:2 and Utrecht scored their goal only in 2nd half. IMO, result don't reflect game much, Utrecht had more chances today. But taking whole season picture, Sparta had very solid season and it would be interesting if they would get chance to play in Conference league.
2nd leg games will be played very soon, on Saturday already.

It's convenient to use services like this one and watch major sports for free without paying to legal services for expensive subscriptions. But when such sites get closed, people shouldn't complain because after all it's piracy and by using such services you're simply stealing. What does this have to do with crypto?
What does this have to do with gambling? |
