Yes, blaspheming the Holy Spirit.
In Matthew 12:31-32, Jesus says to the Pharisees,
"Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men. Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come."
I saw your earlier question and did not answer because I don't have the time right now to do the research. You can sample translations at the links below, including Greek, Hebrew, Aramaic.

no. there was one sin, the sin against the Holy Spirit, where people who witnessed the miracles of Jesus in person claimed that they were from satan; however that sin cannot be comitted today obviously.
No matter how bad your sins may be: murder, sexual sins, alcoholism, cheating on a spouse, burning a Bible, etc. These will all be forgiven by God if someone truly repents, because God ABUNDANTLY pardons:
Isa 55:7 kjv - Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
However, "repentance" is the key word in your question, because if one goes on sinning and sinning, the consequences must be met with justice:
Heb 10:26 nas - For if we go on sinning willfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins

Yes...plenty....anything you repent of but do not intend to avoid the repentance cannot be accepted for. For instance if you are sleeping with your spouse's bestfriend and then repent but have NO INTENTION of stopping the sleeping around with that person, then the repentance is not valid.

If you are a Christian and ask
the Lord to forgive you of whatever you feel you did wrong--He has promised to
forgive. There is only one thing
that can not be forgiven and that is the sin against the Holy
Spirit--Which Jesus himself
sent into the world to testify of Himself. If you will not accept
the leading of the Holy Spirit,
or will say what the Holy Spirit
gives you is from the devil...
You have placed yourself
beyond the realm of forgiveness.

This depends on the interpretation.
My interpretation is that Romans 6:23 says that if you die a sinner, your debt is paid. It is in God's hands and He is the judge. Not us. So, it is up to us to take that chance.
But then that really hurts when someone believes that after you die you will be tortured or a big judgement day.
So, I think it is good to have a relationship with God on a personal level. Starting with reading the scriptures for yourself, meditating on the scripture, discussing it, and praying over the information.
The best to you.

Problem.grabbing one word and running with it. Repentance accepted by God.
You have a biblical view point of what the world looks at. word out of content.
Study to show yourself approved rightly dividing the word of truth.

Suicide... How the heck are you going to repent if you just killed yourself!?
UNLESS.... it was something like an O.D., and you had time to think.. "Oh crap! What have I done?"
Other than that, I think pretty much everything is forgivable if you are truly remorseful of what you've done, AND you do not do it again!
*OH! And I do have to agree with the others who have said... rejecting the holy spirit/denying and Christ or God.

God is Good, and God is Merciful. Praise be upon Him!
Man cannot fully fathom the breadth and depth of God's Love and Mercy to those who TRULY repent and atone for their wrongs and beg for His forgiveness, with the vow to sin no more...
According to the Scriptures, it is only Satan and his minions who CANNOT be forgiven and are forever doomed.
Peace be with you.

Blaspheming against the Holy Ghost is the only unforgivable sin.

Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is the only one I know of.
