Celebrities › Re: Will Smith Slaps Chris Rock After He Joked About His Wife At The Oscars (Video) by Cousin9999: 4:18pm On Mar 28, 2022
Chris probably wanted to roast him, but saw he was a little unhinged.

Celebrities › Re: Will Smith Appologises, Says "Love Will Make You Do Crazy Things" by Cousin9999:
This wasn't about his wife being insulted. It was about how she tarnished his brand, chipped away at his masculinity, and made him doubt himself in so many ways. It's also about how he's tried his whole life to be a certain kind of man, the things he's done to get where he is today, and his childhood trauma.

That said, Chris Rock is a sellout piece of garbage that currently trashes black women because of his own insecurities. He needs a smack.

The real villain in this is Jada. She's truly gutter trash. She has no talent, and one of the most irritating personalities ever. I have to figure he only married her because they saw eye-to-eye on a certain lifestyle. He only stayed because he didn't want another failed marriage.

1. Ask yourself if you changed after marrying her. And consider whether you treat her (objectively) poorly. Are you a good partner that's fully supportive and shares household/family duties? Does anyone in the extended family cause stress? If that's all ok, you need to have an honest discussion with her, or maybe investigate her behavior when you're not around.

2. If she's being unreasonable, it may be that she plotted on you. Maybe you were supposed to be the guy that takes care of her, and she has a lover outside the marriage.

3. Maybe she's a lesbian.

4. Maybe she has trauma or a medical condition that makes intimacy hard for her.

The bolded is still part of it. You don't necessarily need to hike your foot away before you could see and interact with naturally beautiful places. Normal, there's always a nearby city close to such locations where you could use as a base.
I don't mean something like jumping from a plane to land in the middle of the Amazon forest, with no touch of civilization at all. grin
Gotcha. grin

Mauritius is your best bet. You can easily get their passport in a couple of years and their passport will take you to over 100 countries visa free. Plus you wouldn’t even spend upto 5m to move there. I’m available for more info.
That place is infested with Indians.

I would never travel to camp, or visit a place that can only offer natural sites. I understand people who think that's amazing and want to hike, but a vacation for me is a large, fun city near beautiful scenery. I enjoy the coast and lush wooded areas nearby, but I have no desire to hike in the middle of nowhere.

Raalsalghul:
With so many buzz words like green supply chain, renewable energy, reducing emissions, environmental management: can we say Oil and Gas is a thing?
Neither will be replaced any time soon. And even when that happens, the same energy firms in oil and gas are already transitioning to clean energy. Regardless, people need energy, and the same jobs will be there for techs, engineers, admin, managers, truckers, housing/dining staff, and etc.

You might want to expand your search to Canadian, Australian, and American firms. I think you should be able to make it happen. However, you might want to consider taking a job in an unattractive location, e.g. mining or oil site. These jobs pay considerably more, might be a lot easier to get, and it's a good way to establish yourself abroad. Once you do that, it shouldn't be all that hard to land something in a more desirable place, e.g. London, NY, Toronto, Melbourne.

Greetings lovely people. I have a question. I’m trying to apply for some courses in Spain but most of the courses I like are offered in Spanish, now my question is does Spain offer preparatory language courses which I can enroll in for some months then apply for my desired course afterwards. Thanks
I don't have information on that. But have you considered Scandinavian unis? It may be free. And they're more likely to offer the program you want in English.

Look at studying free in Scandinavia, or studying in Spain.

Does he have a business or does he just cut hair? There's a difference. If he's had a shop for several years, he's ready for marriage.

Science/Technology › A Plane That Flies Without Moving Parts by Cousin9999(op): 3:44pm On Mar 24, 2022
as a kid, steven barrett, an associate professor of aeronautics and astronautics at MIT, would watch the movie and tv series ‘star trek’ during his free time. his young eyes would gaze upon the shuttle crafts, so futuristic and dystopian that they would glide through the horizon at a lightning speed. barrett noticed how these space crafts seemed frameless, bare of their moving parts such as the propellers, and noiseless. such an observation still influences him today to the extent that he thinks, in the long-term future, planes should be stripped of their turbines and propellers to be more like the shuttle crafts of ‘star trek’ in their glowing light. at MIT, the professor did just that.

MIT engineers, led by barrett, have introduced the world’s first plan without moving parts, bare from any propellers and turbines. the lightweight aircraft relies on an ‘ionic wind’, or the abundant flow of ions produced aboard the plane that generates enough force to thrust the plane over a steady and sustained flight. through this concept and design, the plane ditches the use of fossil fuels, an element that adds to its silent glide.

as the professor spoke to the university’s official news site, he describes how the plane is the first-ever sustained flight with no moving parts in the propulsion system. ‘this has potentially opened new and unexplored possibilities for aircraft which are quieter, mechanically simpler, and do not emit combustion emissions.’ the design weighs about five pounds and has a five-meter wingspan attached to thin wires resembling fences. these wires act as positively charged electrodes, while similarly arranged thicker wires, running along the back end of the plane’s wing, serve as negative electrodes.

the fuselage of the plane holds a stack of lithium-polymer batteries. barrett’s ion plane team included members of professor david perreault’s power electronics research group in the research laboratory of electronics, who designed a power supply that would convert the batteries’ output to a sufficiently high voltage to propel the plane. in this way, the batteries supply electricity at 40,000 volts to positively charge the wires via a lightweight power converter.

You know what's interesting? The equivalent role and pay in US/UK/AU/NZ/CA or any other desirable location doesn't afford you as many options and opportunities. It's only people abroad in high 6-figure roles that have the same options in-country as a Nigerian with the job described by op. What I mean is having substantial capital to invest and being able to easily do well in business. The American would have to borrow, sacrifice, and take high risks. Even if successful, the margins may be terrible and have them doing not that much better.

But to answer the question, someone in that position should do both. Use the good salary to get some investment real estate, and start a bunch of businesses. Then basically buy a foreign passport. Apparently, you can buy citizenship (for your whole family) in multiple Caribbean countries for a few hundred thousand USD. You can basically do the same thing in Greece and Portugal. When your kids are ready for uni, send them abroad. Maybe invest in some real estate or businesses abroad too.
