Is there any prediction marketplaces that Australians can access? I used intrade a lot until it was shut down; predict-it recently opened markets but it seems to be accessible only to Americans. Are there any others that people know about?

Yeah I use sportsbet already Was hoping there was a marketplace program like intrade available which allows you to trade options in addition to straight bets. It's a bit of an obscure thing but I found out about both intrade and predictit from D&D so I figured that maybe someone would know here if something like that existed that Australian's could access. The market sides like this that I'm aware of require a US address and credit card

Wasn't there some programmer a few years back who got caught outsourcing his entire job to India for like 1/3 of his salary so he'd do literally no work at all and just collect 2/3 of his pay for years until he got caught?

I'm not sure what the methodology for that poll was but I'm pretty sure "national poll numbers" aren't the best indicator of the potential results of the republican primaries

Laserface posted:Im not following the US election stuff at all. is it actually looking like Trump is going to be elected? surely they arent that stupid? He still hasn't really faced anything that would actually challenge him. He might look like the most popular Republican candidate, but that doesn't ensure he gets the nomination. And even as the most popular Republican, he's still looking like he's trailing behind Clinton and Sanders. I mean, he could still become President, it's not entirely impossible. But it's not as likely as these sorts of things suggest.

Laserface posted:Im not following the US election stuff at all. is it actually looking like Trump is going to be elected? surely they arent that stupid? There is no set of circumstances that could take place that would result in Trump being elected. In spite of his poll lead, there is a very remote chance that he could even secure the Republican nomination. His support is highest among the republican contenders but is nowhere close to a majority and when the field starts getting picked off and people drop out, the "not-trump" votes will coalesce around one candidate whose votes will significantly exceed Trump's. Even if it doesn't, the Republican party is already talking about political dealings they can put into place at the time of the convention to ensure that, even with the remote possibility that he attends the convention with a majority of votes, he can still be denied the nomination.

Trump will never be president, but his involvement in this election cycle will gently caress up political discourse in the US for years/decades to come. Moreso than it is hosed up already.

He's far more a symptom of the hosed discourse than he is a cause of it. He's just outright saying what republicans have been dog-whistling for years. Also he's proved the outright lieing rather than lieing by misinformation or by omission works just as well.

It just doesn't look like the result of trying to burn something down, it looks like someone poured a cupful of fuel on the carpet in the middle of the room while they stood there with the garden Hose waiting for it to get blackened just enough before dousing it with water. Wow, almost like the people who did this were complete loving idiots, amazing.

I do think that the Muslim population is 9 times greater than the bogan racist portion, unfortunately the size of their spirit doesn't make up for the shortfall in numbers.
