I've just graduated and i'm looking to make a website for a business i have in mind, tho i graduated in economics.
So basically i know nothing about programming php or html.
What i want is a site where people can login with their account, post content and that other people can see that content.
I'm willing to pay for the hosting etc etc but preferably not for a programmer i'd prefer to make it myself.
There are some sites like Wix but they dont allow you to upload content and create profiles
Poker is like life. Someone has to be the worst at it, for someone else to be the best.
Normal people are somewhere in between, and most of us are convinced to be on the + side of
the average.
I read a blog once, written by Jungleman. Couldn't find it, but I'm pretty sure it said:
“When you're running bad, just try to win two buy-ins each session. Your luck will turn around”
Or something to that effect.
Winning is just something that comes THAT naturally to him when playing poker?
I don't get it. When I run bad I'll lose, at least, two buy-ins each session. When I run normal,
I'm happy to win two buy-ins. My guess: a player like Jungleman doesn't even acknowledge the
spots normal players see as to be “difficult”. They are just “logic” to him. Nature.
Like when a mature, non-disabled person asking me to explain the concepts of “walking” or “writing” to him.
That's how Jungleman must feel when I show him my Hand History and ask for advice.
Maybe I write this to soon after the premiere, but im thinking if you are somewhat of an Alien fan you will have watched this movie by now. I watched it yesterday and after coming home I have spended perhaps 4-5 hours googling and reading about other peoples thoughts about all the questions this movie does not right out answer. I will right away say that the movie itself is not great, its not bad at all, but not great. But the theme behind it is wonderfully mysterious, filled with thrilling questions if you are an Alien fan like me. If someone else here is as hooked as me maybe you could direct me to stuff i havent already read? Or share your thoughts here with me!
So Prometheus is about creation. Why did they create us, what part did they have in us making our society and how big part does religion have in the movie, why did they direct us to their solar system, and finally why do they want to destroy us?
What part did David have? What did he tell the engineer in the end before he went havoc? Does he despise humans and hoping for our extermination?
What will a follow up be about?
Many questions and more! Some links i found worthy so far is:
Guess I will make a short sum-up what i thought about the movie itself. I guess my main problem was hoping it would be as much alike as Alien possible, rather than a pure action movie. Its not. Theres no tention at all like in Alien and the dialogue is, as in so so so many other big budget films these days, so cheesy. Ridley Scott is supposed to be a huge Stanley Kubrick fan? When have you ever watched a Stanley Kubrick movie and hating on the dialogue? Never i hope. Why the need for small jokes everywhere, for sarcastic witty comments all the time? Its fine for a popcorn action movie but its NOT fine if you want to create a masterpiece (like Ridley Scott has proven that hes capable of; Alien & Blade Runner).
Why the need for extra action scenes like the storm in the beginning? Or the ship crashing right over their heads so they have to run for their lives in the end. Isnt the GREAT material of the threat from engineers and xenos and whatnot other creatures enough to create great horror in itself? More is not always (if ever) better, when will they learn?
I liked most scenes from inside the engineers ship, it felt authentic and a bit of the good old Alien vibe got to me. It has a great background story, and mostly decent actors. I give it a solid 7/10 but i would have liked to be able to give it more
Only in Montreal can you go to one park and witness a bunch of people tightrope walking between trees, LARPing, and a drum circle. What a strange and awesome city.
temporary gf?
So I met this chick the other day. She is leaving for a month in a couple weeks and then goes to New Zealand to work on a dairy farm in October.
She is super independent, always wants to pay doesn't like door holding and this kind of stuff, and we rarely text or phone :O
We agreed we will only have fun, and click together very well, always end up having deep drunk convos for some reason. We went for a hike, barbecue, a Scottish film and a walk around the city, she even came over a couple nights but it was that time of the month which is pretty frustrating (for her too, she told me herself :D)
I still want to see how this turns out, with me being busy and she working in a care home we can basically do just booty calls after 9pm - a refreshing change after a 3.5y of serious relationship. Still it's a new situation for me knowing the relationship has no future - can you see any drawbacks/have any experience with this kind of stuff?
new job
Well that didn't take long.
Chose to sell insulation door to door with a marketing company that does outsourcing for big companies. Basically going door to door, measuring lofts, and signing people up for a mostly free loft and wall insulation paid by government grants. There is training for 2 hours every day, I want to learn and not take it just as a job, but will have to spend there 11hr/day.
Still more likely to take on poker on the weekends this time, my last job was never over and I had to prospect new companies almost always. I'm waiting for my salary from my last job and will start at NL10 a few hours per week - watch out for new hands and overanalysis of micros
P.S. This no fap thing is ridiculous, I can't last a day how the fuck do you guys do it?
I haven't really touched poker since black friday and I want to start trying to make some money again. Anyone know a good place for low stakes (1/2 or 2/3) in the San Diego area that I can start grinding again? I know there's the palomar but apparently its raked $5 per flop which seems like it would be pretty awful for 2/3. Any info appreciated!
