Phones / Re: Can Power Bank Spoil A Phone Battery? by brainycaleb(m): 8:02am On Apr 22, 2022
I am an IT technician and from experience, you are free to charge your device with whatever electric power source you have access to

First of all if the voltage supplied by your power bank is lesser than the voltage required by your device, your device won't charge normally and if you're using it in the process of charging with such a power bank, your device battery percentage won't increase but rather decrease at a slower rate compared to usage on battery power.

Most USB cables have current regulators nowadays, they are not just plain wires anymore.
Modern powerbanks and power bank PCB's have voltage regulators and smart charging features that adapts to whatever device it currently charges.
Your phone's daughterboard which houses your charging port has a voltage regulator and temperature control switch, that is the reason why your phone can detect a damaged charger, High temperature and a slow charger. It is also the reason why once it detects a good charger supplying the factory recommended voltage for fast charging, it fast charges.
Your modern charger brick has voltage controls and some even has idling mode (when your phones battery is full or no phhone is currently connected and charging, the charger turns off to save power)

Your battery also has a PCB that controls how currents flow in and out! And if there's too high a voltage that your charger brick or power bank board couldn't stop, the USB cable would control it and if the USB cable can't control it, then YOUR daughterboard with your charging port would control it. And when it can't be controlled, then the battery PCB will control it but definitely, your phones daughterboard will control the charging current.


The issue of generators and the myth of how bad it is for your battery, let's put it to rest. If you have any available power source, charge your device and learn about the technology of your installed battery and how to care for it.

Every power bank right now has specifications. Some do fast charging(9v-1ah/12v-2.7ah) some smaller types do 5v-1ah and some even do 5v-2a. When buying one, first know the required or compatible voltage for your device before buying and live your life...


If I have made any mistake, correct me without an insult

Everything Wears out with time and if your battery is no longer holding charge, simply replace it by taking it to the nearest phone technician.

This is the reason why parents should use Google Family suite to control the devices they give their underage -18 children. Set up their emails and link it to yours and you can control their access to whatever app they use on their phones and even set time limits on these apps and if they spend too much unproductive time on certain app, you can remotely lock them out of that app until you chose to release it again!


This is why it is very good to gain some tech knowledge as a modern day parent!

Truth was, Judas Iscariot was the closest friend of Jesus Christ and not Peter, he helped Jesus fulfil his mission. It wasn't betrayal even though it may look like it. It had to be done and by none other than Jesus's closest friend Judas. Read more about the story of Jesus in the Lost Books and the Urantia, for a clear understanding.

I knew my worth. My colleagues asked about me, he said he didn't fire me that I could still return if I want...

Same day I was replaced but... The damages my replacement would cause before understanding the job, would take almost 3 months and machine replacement parts would cost millions of naira.

Politics / Re: Chief Obafemi Awolowo's Private Car in 1979 (photo) by brainycaleb(m): 7:06am On Mar 28, 2022
anonimi:


What made Awolowo join Gowon for the civil war instead of secession like Biafra

He did it because of the fulfilled promise of Gowon making him the finance minister and for other political reasons which were in his interest! He was the originator of true large scale corruption in Nigeria. He never had the interest of the Yorubas at heart and was swayed into selling The Yorụ̀bá Nation to the North despite being helped out of prison by Odumegwu Ojukwu where he has been for two years for corrupt practices. Ojukwu had wanted him to declare the Yorụ̀bá nation so that Nigeria would be split into three nations ; Arewa, Yorụ̀bá and Biafra.

After the civil war, being the finance minister, Awolowo never returned the wealth of Igbos that were in the bank, instead he gave a few Igbos £20.00 with the unfulfilled promise of looking into their true financial networth domiciled in the bank. This was why the Igbos lost out during the first industrial indigenization in Nigeria.

Crime / Re: Fuel Souvenir: Lagos Socialite, Ogbulu Bags 27 Months Imprisonment by brainycaleb(m): 12:16pm On Mar 27, 2022
For me, I simply see no difference in her choice of souvenir, it can be whatever! Diesel, water, alcohol, food, small bags, money, etcetera, so long it's safely packaged. I'm no lawyer but I feel that such an issue should have no place in criminal law, not unless it poses an imminent threat to the lives and properties of the members of immediate members of her society. I still feel that this court case was however made to siphon money from the defendant as the judgement and sentencing was seemingly done both on sentimental and emotional grounds.


You can can make me see reasons otherwise...
Crime / Fuel Souvenir: Lagos Socialite, Ogbulu Bags 27 Months Imprisonment by brainycaleb(m): 7:44am On Mar 27, 2022
Ms. Ogbulu Pearl, who distributed Premium Motor Spirit, also known as fuel, as souvenir at a party, has been sentenced to 27 months in prison.


Pearl was convicted by a Lagos Special Offences Mobile Court sitting at Oshodi, on Friday.

The defendant was earlier arraigned on March 14, for the offence of distributing PMS as souvenir during her installation party on March 5.

The Chief Magistrate, Kehinde Ogundare, convicted Pearl to three months imprisonment or an option of N15, 000 fine on the first count.

Ogundare also ordered the Lagos socialite to pay the sum of N1 million on second and third count charges or face two years imprisonment.


Pearl was accused of violating section 251(1), 168 (1), 244 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015 and Section 195 (2)(b) of the Environmental Management Protection Law of Lagos State 2017.

The defendant who had earlier pleaded not guilty, later changed it to guilty.

Car Talk / Re: Please How Much Would This Car Worth?? by brainycaleb(m): 8:40am On Mar 26, 2022
nurey:


1. It's an Audi, not very top in the reliability index

2. The engine has turbo, turbo engines need optimum maintenance meaning more expensive oil and some other timely maintenance to avoid unforeseen breakdown

3. The engine is a performance oriented one, not good on fuel economy

4. It's a 4 wheel drive vehicle too would be a bit heavier than a FWD and also 4wd has it's own maintenance and most 4wd variant of a vehicle has more pricey parts.

Dem say who ask for directions no dey miss road! I will remember this advise bro. God bless you.

Ain't economical bro. You will use most of your profit to refuel the vehicle. A 2.7 turbo V6 engine will surely devour fuel hungrily.

For transportation, look for cars with 1.3,1.6,1.8 litre engines (especially Japanese vehicles) . They are more economical with fuel and will make you enjoy the profit from your hard work.

Fuel guzzlers coupled with their maintenance is a recipe for loss and frustration in transport business.

Thanks a million bro, you've taught me something new.

Car Talk / Please How Much Would This Car Worth?? by brainycaleb(m): 1:08pm On Mar 23, 2022
This is an audi a6 allroad 2.7t 2001 model, Switzerland used. It was registered in Nigeria but not used whatsoever, lying dormant because the owner is away in Switzerland. I'd want to use it for transportation and the owner says because we are related, I'd only pay her her cost price i.e 4200 Swiss franc and 450,000 used in clearing and forwarding, which would amount to almost 2.5 million.

Health / Re: Please Help! I Forget Things Easily, Do I Have A Medical Condition? by brainycaleb(m): 3:38pm On Mar 05, 2022
I have this same condition, it began when I was 13 or 14. I'm an "A" student and before then, I remember every bit of action that happens and can recount them in order and that was how I never took notes in class but beat the score of the best student in the whole school during exams(I never missed classes) . Then my family had issues and it hurts to be able to recount vividly... I chose to forget and it was a blessing at first but right now, sometimes I wish I still had the curse.


It made me determined to raise a better family. And as I type this, I'm feeling emotional. People still say I'm too brilliant for my good and all that stuff but I'm just a shadow of my real self and that hurts me a lot.

Some of you guys are mistaking Russia for Nigeria. I mean not even your Great America can handle Russia when it comes to war and I'm telling the truth. If you have been following the news, American spendings on weapons of mass destruction have not been yeilding much results but you see Russia that is a story for another day...

The only country I believe that can handle Russia will be China so if America would want to handle Russia, they will need the help of the Chinese and everybody else around the world. That is how bad the situation gets, don't let Hollywood tell you otherwise.

My gut feeling is telling me that the op shouldn't say he is sorry, ever!

Let him simply change and become a loving and more encouraging husband but he mustn't apologize for his past sins!

This is because we don't truly know the makeup of the woman and why she's attracted to him!

She must have known his true character before marriage and if he apologize, he may look like a weakling to her and hence lose her love!

Phones / Re: NCC Identifies 2 Cyber Vulnerabilities, Warns Against Public Charging Of Phones by brainycaleb(m): 3:28am On Jan 31, 2022
Damn... This is what tax payer monies are being used for Useless information?

1. Hackers in Nigeria aren't concerned with such methods bruh! Why go through such pain staking process to write a payload and upload it into a charging port First of all, this method won't work due to the disabled USB debugging option, OEM unlocking and default USB configuration of virtually all modern android devices now. Goodluck with that.
2. If the NCC doesn't post anything for five years, we get the gist, their MDA is just meant to embezzle our money, no need to try too hard

3. Only a novice would swallow this piece of unimportant information, hook, line and sinker.

4. If it were feasible, such situation will only happen on charging sockets with inbuilt Wi-Fi capabilities whereby a hacker close by would gain control over the charging Dock and initiate the payload of which there is a variable given the fact that most devices are outdated and unprotected and besides, it has to be for a specific type of device with a specific security vulnerability.

Now having listed these, it shows that the NCC doesn't even understand the information they copied from a digital security report journal hence the half and half panic inspired caveat they posted or are they trying to tell me that we shouldn't charge our phones at Brother Kunle's barbershop again?

peace.

Phones / Re: Help Me In Choosing Between Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G And Apple Iphone 13 Pro by brainycaleb(m): 1:17am On Jan 25, 2022
I wonder why we Nigerians trade insults at the Slightest...

My opinion from experience is to chose a Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra over the iPhone 13pro max. And here are my reasons

1. Battery life.
Samsung devices running on One UI skin offer better battery life compared to the older Grace UI/UX found on the s7 to s8 and Touchwiz Skin found on the very first galaxy S till S6+ and this is due to optimisation. The iPhone on the other hand has seen improvements over the years and yes, they are better now. Both phones have been optimised to conserve battery.

2. Processors and GPUs
The iPhone has the fastest processor and GPU(if im not mistaken on the latter) on a phone right now but is bottlenecked by the OS, its a nightmare for game developers and all that stuffs where its supposed to be needed! Such power should serve its needs but... High end games are better optimised for Snapdragon chipsets and this is where the iPhone fails to win.
Both devices can still function as midrange phones in 7 to 10 years time due to their sheer power.

3. Updates
It's true that Samsung offer 5 years updates for the S series and 4 years updates for the A series then 3 for other series while the iPhone offers 6 years of seamless updates for every generation of iPhone but... This is where Android wins! After 6 years, your iPhone is obsolete and in 8 years, it is archaic! Android on the other hand hardly dies! Take the Galaxy S2 for example, last I checked, it was launched in 2011 with android 2.3 gingerbread and that's a whooping 11 years ago and 28 of december 2020, someone made an Android 12 custom Rom for it, even though it hanged during operation and all that but it breathed new life even after 10 years and believe me, it tasted every version of android until 12(https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-unofficial-12-0-0-r18-i9100-lineageos-19-0-alpha.4380641/) . Once a phone maker stops supporting an android device, due to its opensource nature, communities like XDA has enthusiasts who are willing to build third party Roms and give updates to an abandoned phone. IPhone on the other hand don't run custom Roms.

4. I used an iPhone and to be honest, there was a time when the iPhone couldn't copy and paste and that was during its early days and I was a Symbian fan boy... I've come a long way and I appreciate Apple and their iPhones because they make good hardwares, ranging from camera to processor and all that designs. Only hardware phone engineers can really do understand what I'm saying, the aesthetics of the disassembled iPhone and her tiny parts and screws... Premium like an expensive mechanical wristwatch but closed source OS.
The Samsung android on the other hand finds a new beastly feature for every iteration yearly and I must confess, the Galaxy S21 Ultra is the best yet from them and I believe they aren't done!

I will chose the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra over an IPhone 13, and that is my choice, I'm an android power user, a mobile gamer and the promise of customization(this isn't about theming and wallpaper but Custom Roms)

I currently use a higher midrange device from samsung(Galaxy A71F International version) and being a contented user, I plan to use this device for the next five years or more and its going to be not because I cannot afford a newer device or so but because I've survived phone wars and manufacturer fanaticism long enough(since 2007) to understand that all these phone makers are in bed with each other cooking up ways to sell to us in a turn by turn strategy. Tecno and Samsung were jointly making a camera for real (https://www.google.com/amp/s/m.gsmarena.com/samsung_and_tecno_working_on_rgbw_camera_sensor_-amp-52169.php) Apple sources parts from Samsung and LG, in reality, Apple doesn't really produce Phones rather they "design". And every phone maker has a product for every pocket!


Bottom line, if Apple makes Android phones without the bottle necks I'd buy them but the Galaxy S21 Ultra works for me.

OP, surprisingly it appears that your brother and I are both cut from the same material 100% except that I'm not very financially stable for now.

I once broke up with an ex for a simple Lie which isn't that simple.

The stage where your mother(also appears to be my only reset button) which apparently is the only one to help change his mind is over, there isn't anything anyone on any side of the family can do now so let the woman enjoy the fruit of her labour!

And no, your brother will not miss her or ever regret his action instead he will be filled with rage anytime he thinks about it for the short foreseeable future, until he heals and he'd avoid women too until then.

His high level of intelligence caused this because he had simulated everything in his mind before now and is disaappointed in his choice of woman for a life partner.

Children need to be allowed to be children so they can grow into better adults. Discipline is expedient, abuse isn't! Here in Nigeria, the boundary line between these two has been blurred to an extent its non-existent!
