No idea, never tried Payoneer to grey

Ok. Thanks

DrLevi:
Not anymore

I guessed as much. Please which one do you recommend btw a grey GBP and USD virtual acct for receiving funds from Payoneer?

DrLevi:
It is. I've done it, it was free from upwork and I successfully transferred from Grey to my bank account.

Everything was seamless!

Hi chief, are you saying it's possible to withdraw from Upwork directly to a grey usd virtual acct?

idu1:
Even okada fares. To climb okada reach nearby dem go dey call price.

These ones are the most annoying. Like I took a bike and the normal fare is #100 I got to my destination, paid #100 and the next thing this rider told me was "Na #100 you wan pay" boy the kind of look I gave him ehnn I'm sure he wouldn't want me to sit on his bike again.

Earth is really going to become a hellish place in the coming centuries. I pray our unborn generations possess the skills and tech to survive it.

Try getting your NIN slip at a Registration centre - Reprint.

I used NIN slip too

Hello chief, can you share a picture of your slip (you can obscure you personal info for privacy)?
I have a slip but it's been trimmed that the slip is very short showing my biodata only. I'm worried if this will be accepted during verification or not. Thank you

OVB123:
You didn't show us exchange rate of naira against dollar?

The title of the post says "strongest" not "worst".

Patrioticbreed9:
Oga North is a co-ordinate the main koko is america.

The recist american want to seprate their self from the brown south america. Many racist are still fighting hard to remove mexico from north america and name them central americans alongside cuba.

Normaly the continent is americas.

I disagree. Although you're partly right but "Americas" is not a continent. Americas is mostly used in literary writing and a quick googling of 'list of continents' will return results of most sites listing 7 names (e.g. Wikipedia).

Friends with whom you are wasting all your important time will slowly turn into contacts and slowly will be forgotten.

These are so apt

At 12. Does North America or South America begin and end with the same letter?

DrLevi:
You can get the improved one from the app at your convenience, the regular one, you have to ask a registration centre

Many thanks, chief

DrEmmy01:
You can visit a NIMC center

Ok, thanks!

DrLevi:
I believe you can get a reprint. You should try getting one

How do I go about this? Is it with the NIMC app or I have to visit the registration center again? Thanks

Regarding verification with NIN I have some concerns please. My slip was trimmed that almost half of the slip was cut with just a short length of it showing my biodata. This was by the guy who did the registration (I don't know who sent him) or is this normal? My worry is that will it be accepted by upwork?

DrEmmy01 and everyone

Same here. Congratulations bro

What is your niche/specialty, please?

longlife101:
30min' - seriously?

npx create-react-app ... is what I use.

Which "yarn" command 'prompt' do you use?

yarn create-react-app <project_name> (is this what you meant?)

Babalakin:
if you are not already into crypto, it might complicated. Download binance or kucoin app. Buy usdt from any trusted seller and send it to any of the apps above. Then buy ethereum with the usdt in your binance account. Transfer the ethereum to an external wallet like metamask. U can then buy the domain using crypto on epik.

Thank you! I appreciate

Babalakin:
I used crypto for my last purchase on epik two days ago, and it was seamless.u can pay with btc,eth,usdt,usdc. I paid with eth.

Hello,

Do you mind sharing how this works? From getting a crypto acct and buying a domain. Thanks

well you can always do this..

Makes sense...

My profile went ahead of me but my complete body is there right now.
Few random pictures. I visited Walmart, dollar tree and Africa store to get stuffs.
Naijaman come and do welcome party for your baby o. Lol

You didn't post any picture in your diary. Why nau

Forbid all manners of immorality then sit back and watch how God's blessings abound in your life.

pansophist:
This is true, and there are lots of examples to support it. I'll list a few.

For example, the Nigerian communities in the west especially the US are known as the most educated and amongst the wealthiest groups, but this data glossed over one important part, and it is that the Nigerians in question are first generation immigrants.

Those ones that are called "fresh off the boat", or "booty scratchers" lol. These sets were hungry for success, calling up all the strength in them since they are faced with impending challenges such as permanent legal residency, finances, integration, establishment and so forth.

But after they've overcome these hurdles and started having kids who didn't face such challenges, their kids who are privileged just became regular Americans without the drive, hunger for success and ambitions their precedents had.

Furthermore, your point is supported by the widely recognised book that explains the states of most regions in the world titled "Gun, Germ and Steel" by Jared Diamond. The author posits that geographical realities are the basis for the evolution of human societies. The more deprived the societies are, the more likely they will be successful since they won't rely on nature, but on their ingenuity to thrive.

And if you observe our world today, this is self-evident. The global north is the most developed (Europe, North America aka the west), while the global south is not ( aka Africa, South America) . You can literally eat an orange and throw the seed on the floor, come back in a year and you have an orange tree in many places in the global south.

The warm weather, abundance of resources necessary to thrive, and relatively low population (pre 1900s) made it unnecessary for exploration in the global south, which made us content and coexist with nature. Also you'll observe that Europeans enslaved Africans in plantations such as Brazil, then ship all the produce to Europe. The South is naturally rich, simple.

This is not the same for Europe. In winter for example, the weather will kill you if you do not have shelter. Lots of homeless people are frozen to death during the peak of winter and it's not news. You may be broke in Europe for example, but you can hardly be homeless. Homeless shelter are everywhere for you to crash.

When I just arrived in Europe during my first semester, the warning our uni gave to international students back then was to not get too drunk and can't find our way back home after clubbing, because we can literally die, no capping. When you're drunk, it's like Anastasia, you don't feel the cold until you die.

In the dead of winter, nothing grows. Supermarkets in Europe are filled with foods from all parts of the global south. Bananas, pineapples, and coconuts are all imported. It's why the eu has almost no taxes on foods coming from Africa, and the few areas they invest heavily on, so we can export to them.

Another example would be the docility of a tiger in captivity to the one in the wild. The wild tiger usually is smarter, agile, cunning and brutal, just because his life is on the line. He has to be that way to survive, he has no choice. It also explains why nomadic groups are far more brutal (Eg the Fulanis) than others.

So yes, I actually agree with you. If Africa wants to get it right, we simply can not ignore the realities of geographical limitation, and build from there.

Hmm, wisdom. I think your comment explains "The paradox of plenty" - where countries or geographics with abundant resources tend to have low level of development compared to places with fewer resources.

Her name is Mercy but her attitude is messy

I think it depends on your network strength but I assume it shouldn't take more than 4 - 7 mins. I remember one time "npm create-react-app" took nearly thirty minutes and still didn't install the packages. I searched online for solutions and I found Yarn. The same process took ~5mins and I haven't looked back since then. I heard npx is sometimes faster so you might want to try that.

I don't get. The CSS you write for normal websites is almost practically the same you write in React although the syntax may be different in methods like CSS-in-JS or preprocessors like Sass.

I am a big fan of linux UBUNTU, so i have this file in my Desktop

Its always
cd Desktop && cp git.sh new_project_folder

Working alone, No need for branches yea then why always

git add .
git commit -m "commiting"
git push origin main

when i can just
touch git.sh
nano git.sh
#!/bin/bash
echo "Adding"
git add .
echo "Commiting"
git commit -m "Updates"
echo "Pushing"
git push origin main
echo "Completed"
clear

then

chmod u+x git.sh

so next time i wanna push just

./git.sh

and all done. wrote this one and copy to any new project ..
Save the time! I hail Nairaland ceo e get why @elvis i sight you too

Your commit messages tho. It won't even make any sense to yourself in the long run.

tshege:
If your card is Visa from GTBANK, forget it. that card is useless (authentication issues). change it to the MasterCard variant

No, it's Mastercard.

Rankett:
Geegpay dot Africa. I haven't used it but I've seen people mention it in this thread.

The only downside is that the dollar rate is the black market rate at about #600+ per $

Thanks, I'll check it out. I'm also considering getting a Virtual Naira Mastercard, but it also has the $20 limit.

Think4Myself:
What's OSS ?

Open-Source Software

On what premises did you arrive at this conclusion, OP?

Rankett:
Reasons:
1. Your card is not probably activated for international transactions, call the number at the back of your card to activate it for online transactions (Please note: I've not done this before) or go to your bank and tell them to activate it for you.

2. If you've been paying with it before, how much are you trying to pay? If it's more than $20, it won't go through(this is the monthly limit). I even tried using one GT card yesterday, I was only able to make $15 payment

3. If none of the above, make sure you have #492 × the amount of dollar you want to pay in your account. If you want to pay $10, make sure you have at least #4920 in your account.

Turns out the issue is my account type. I was told I'd need to upgrade my acct and then be issued a new card but I don't have much time for that process.

I have heard about virtual cards. Do you think I can register a domai/n with one? If yes which one do you suggest I use?

I really appreciate your comments.
