I like the 49ers in this one, they have a more solid and consistent defense than anyone else the Chiefs have faced in the post season.  I'll take a stab at a score prediction; SF 34, KC 28.

It's going to be a fun game anyway.  I would have liked to see Green Bay and Kansas City duke it out.  A replay of of the first super bowl would have been a fitting end to the NFL's 100th season.

About time for the final bump guys - less than 24 hours to go and we will be happy to see more players. Smiley

What's the buy-in?  Or, is it free to register?

A friend called me the other day telling me I should buy BSV.  "It's gonna pump, I'm telling you" he said.  The fucking numbnuts was right, it pumped like 250%!  WTF, who's pumping that scam shit?

Now I lost all my bitcoin anyway as my cat ate the seed.

Can you still afford to buy a wrench?  Cheesy

Sounds more like a job for a cat opener.

FIFY

Just barely. I needed an adjustable, but it had to be a metric one....


An adjustable SAE wrench can easily be converted to metric, just meowltiply the adjustment by 25.4.

Watford special's a bit risky, because I'm sure the Hornets will win, but might be 1-0 or 2-0. Bournemouth's got venom but it's been hard to extract lately, so I don't see them scoring tonight. Anyway, game's on. Let's enjoy.

I threw some dust at that special bet, but it just needed one more yellow card to win.  So close.  I'm glad Watford made it out of relegation, now it's up to City to keep them out.


2-0 Watford, this is going to be huge if they close this out. They’ll be 17th & out of the relegation are if they hold on. Massive pressure on Aston Villa now in the 4:30pm GMT game.

That last goal by Pereyra was amazing.  What control and timing.  Congrats to the Hornets for the win.

I couldn't resist the odds on Aston Villa, so sorry to sportsbet, I'm rooting for AVFC.

If not it might be a glitch you need to uninstall the Electrum and reinstall it again just like what they did from here https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/issues/4721

It's a well-known issue that Ubuntu 18.04 is a buggy OS of Linux when installing Electrum.

This worked after a restart.  I also made a shortcut on the desktop.  The install didn't include an icon, which really bugged me.  I had to copy electrum.png from windows.

This is the code I used in the electrum.desktop shortcut I created:
Code:
#!/usr/bin/env xdg-open
[Desktop Entry]
Version=3.3.8
Type=Application
Terminal=False
Exec=/home/willy2streams/.local/bin/electrum
Name=Electrum
Comment=Electrum
Icon=/home/willy2streams/.electrum/electrum.png

Thank you all for your help.

Your Electurm is installed correctly what you need is to have the icon?

Yes, I'd like an icon but that's not the only issue.  Electrum will not start by entering the "electrum" command in terminal.  It seems like it should start by doing that if it's installed correctly.

A little background of what I'm trying to do - I have the OS installed onto a USB stick, and I'm trying to install Electrum on it so I can use it to boot my computer for "off-line" use.  I'm not sure it's a good idea, but my plan is to use the USB to boot the PC only when I want to access cold storage, but use the PC like normal when booting off my internal hard drive.

Thank you all for your help.

I'm sure I followed the steps correctly.  It still only works if I run without install.  I'm trying to install it onto a USB stick, if that makes any difference.

Correct me if I missed something but it appears we were all at least 50% wrong in our picks. I was 75% wrong, with the Seahawks being my only correct call. I just put a lot more stock in both Titans and Vikings.

I did not read the lastest posts to avoid the spoilers, however, after the Patriots' loss, I reckon that not betting on +8 might be a mistake. This is the playoffs. Teams will try harder, games will be scored closer.

In any case, I got spoilered by DireWolfM14's post heheheeh. Vikings were also +8?

Tennessee was +5, +4 at game start, while Vikings were +8.

I was wrong on every one of my predictions, those were 50% are way better than me, lol.  I'm going to change my strategy next year on Wild Cards; only bet on the underdogs, lol.

Thank for all the replies.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong.  In the last command should I change "--user" to "--willy2streams"?

example:

This:
Code:
python3 -m pip install --user Electrum-3.3.8.tar.gz[fast]

Should be this:
Code:
python3 -m pip install --willy2streams Electrum-3.3.8.tar.gz[fast]

Just an example, my username on the computer is not the same as here.

I'm trying to install Electrum on Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS.  I followed instructions found here: https://electrum.org/#download

Install dependencies:
Code:
sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5

Download package:
Code:
wget https://download.electrum.org/3.3.8/Electrum-3.3.8.tar.gz

Verify signature:
Code:
wget https://download.electrum.org/3.3.8/Electrum-3.3.8.tar.gz.asc
gpg --verify Electrum-3.3.8.tar.gz.asc
Confirmed Thomas V's key.

Install with PIP:
Code:
sudo apt-get install python3-setuptools python3-pip
python3 -m pip install --user Electrum-3.3.8.tar.gz[fast]

But nothing happens.  There's no Electrum icon in my tray, and I don't know if there's a command to start Electrum from the Terminal.  There is a new folder in my home directory named Electrum-3.3.8


If I enter the following commands into terminal I can get Electrum start.

Run without installing:
Code:
tar -xvf Electrum-3.3.8.tar.gz
python3 Electrum-3.3.8/run_electrum


Is there a way to install it so I can just double click an icon?

Here's my parlay for the weekend:

Buffalo
NE (-2.5)
NO (-9.5)

I think Buffalo is going to be this weekend's underdog.  Seattle/Eagles to close for me to guess.

This is NASA astronaut and homosexual Scott Kelly aboard the ISS:

The Three Musketeers are an all male thruple, it's blatant pro-masonic homosexual propaganda.

I'm noticing a pattern here.  A secret obsession with homosexuality?

thats why you don't bet on a game with teams that are not playing for anything.
I will either get it tattooed somewhere or set a calendar reminder for December 2020, 50:50 chance atm.

Send the contact info for your tattoo artist, I bet on the Vikings and the Texans to win.   Angry

If my luck is going to change it's now or never.  I went all in on the 49ers -6.5.  Shocked
