They are powerful. They have a high chance of defeating the US in conventional warfare. They have developed a lot of weapons and defenses since the last war.

However, the US is more tactically sound, which will be the edge.

Haba my bro. Propaganda aside, head to head, boots on ground, USA vs Russia, Russia go chop correct beating. That common Ukraine has managed to fight them into a stalemate says a lot.

TobiAbuja:
Then seek out the truth. There are tens if not hundreds of videos confirming them as North Koreans, including from pro-Russian telegram channels. One only has to look.

It's because that war has dragged on at a very slow tempo and has gotten boring. I'm no longer as invested so it's easier to doubt everything from both sides. Now I wing it by judging the underlying motivations behind headlines to approximate what could be true.

It'll be perfectly reasonable if the update, real or fake, was from Kyiv, but it's rather out of place coming from Seoul. Have they got any skin in the game or na just bad belle against Pyongyang?

Kaa4:
North Korea, Dude.

N
How many persons ever notice that the North Korean President is the only fatso in his country, while the other are malnourished and skinny

South Korea, Dude.

North dey fight but na South dey give update.

The first casualty of war is truth.

Don't believe everything you see online, especially regarding war.

Why is Seoul so keen on providing updates on a war they're not directly involved in?

mysticwarrior:
Why South Korea come carry dey matter for head?

I wonder! Na shisshigi dey do them.

Do you pay the agent a tour fee like they do in Abuja? If so, this might just be a scheme for them to cash out without needing to have any available houses. They could pick a prospective client, show them an unreasonably priced rubbish dump they know the client won’t like, and still earn their commission without having to finalize anything.

Though the situation of this country weighs me down when I ponder on it, God can still remember us.
I don't know if you believe in God or not but I do.
There is nothing He cannot do, no situation He can not change.

Compliments of the season

I believe in God, it's people I don't believe in.

By the way, there are things God cannot do. E.g lie, sin, change. In our own particular case, He has blessed Nigeria and its people with everything they need, including freewill, which they're using in the ugliest of ways. He's not going to come down from heaven and fix the country for us.

I have been positive, hoping, praying that this country will work one day.

With the things happening these days.......my spirit is so low.

Why is this nation cursed with wicked leaders?

Wicked leaders, wicked followers; evil collabo!

I grew up in a Christian household where morning devotion held everyday, including evening prayers on some days. For all the decades of my existence we've been praying for Nigeria and her leaders. That 🤬 don't work. I've wasted over twenty years of prayers on an impossible request, time that'd have been more useful strategizing japa.

I started like you, naïve and ignorantly, no offense, believing in this scam of a country, then I had the eye opening opportunity to experience Nigeria at a very deep level and I can assure you that the country is not going to change anytime soon. Lower your expectations for your own good.

weedfada:
Very responsible, down to earth and intelligent BUT... I smoke weed everyday!! I hate being sober!

Interesting.

What's your favorite strain?
Do you experience stigma, how do you deal with it?
Ever had any brush with the authorities regarding weed possession or use?
How would you say weed has impacted you overall?
What's so terrible about being sober that you're constantly trying to escape?

Banjuu:
Good evening. I need a useful advice on how to address an issue regarding me ad my partner; she complains bitterly and constantly over things i consider minute.

We have been together for close to five months now. She is nice and one the kindest woman i've ever been with. But barely a month after we were together, I noticed something about her that is getting on my nerves now; she complains constantly over the most ridiculous thing. Few of the complaints she has inunated me with include me saying "good morning". This becomes a problem when i say good morning or passing a message without adding endearing word or phrase or using her actual name. Something like; "Good morning, Tolani" always yields an issue we may drag for a day or two. Another instance is me sending using particular picture or messages that are not catchy t celebrate her birthday, me not giving prompt or accurate responses to her messages. Sometimes it's me not giving her enough that covers her transport fare when she visits.

I have hade to explain why, how, when just to clarify issues. Sometimes i apologize and when I don't she accuses me invalidating her opinions or proving to be "all knowing" and "always right".

I'm getting overwhelmed with her incessant complains and I'm seriously thinking of calling it off with her, but I candidly love her.

What’s about to follow is a disjointed series of personal sentiments that may not directly help your situation, but since you’re asking for advice on a public forum, that's to be expected.

This woman is trying to teach you how she wants to be treated. That’s typical in the early stages of a relationship, where both parties are adjusting and trying to tune into each other’s frequency. Essentially, this is the phase where you both say, “This is who I am, these are my likes and dislikes, and this is how I want to be treated.” Forget the “candid love” you may feel at this stage—it’s transitional and often doesn’t mean much in the grand scheme of things. Don’t let it influence your judgment. Forget that she’s kind, nice, or whatever else—it’s too early to assess character, as people often put their best foot forward at the start.

What’s expected of you is to note her requests and determine whether these are things you can accommodate without growing resentful. The existence of this thread already suggests you’ve started feeling resentment.

That said, she seems to have a romanticized, idealized picture of love that’s shaping her expectations. However, based on what you’ve shared, her requests seem fairly straightforward:

1. Use affectionate terms when referring to her.

2. Care about the optics of how you celebrate and present her on special occasions.

3. Be responsive in communication and pay attention to what she’s really saying.

4. Embrace the provider role, starting with adequately covering the logistical costs of the relationship.


In my experience, these aren’t out-of-the-ordinary requests and align with typical expectations of a boyfriend, especially one where “candid love” is involved.

That said, in my younger days of learning about love, I’ve been accused of being the all-knowing, always-right guy who always has something clever to say about every situation. But love is transactional, my brother. I’ve had to learn to give love—to a level that’s comfortable for me—where I expect love in return, without making a fuss about it. It might not come naturally at first, but you’ve got to learn how to jive with people while clearly defining and demanding your own needs in the relationship.

Of course, none of this means you should be a simp. Nobody likes a simp—not the girls, not the bros—and it feels downright awful from within. In essence, don't put up with bullsh!t for the sake of being nice.

Just jive, brother. Jive.

..ok they use this port Harcourt refinery to misappropriate funds, loot and embezzle money abi?

How you see am?

German police arrested a Saudi Arabian man after a deadly car-ramming attack on a Christmas market Friday in which an SUV barrelled through a crowd of revellers at high speed, leaving a trail of bloody carnage.

They need to start kicking these bloodthirsty ßastàrds out of their countries.

ufotunang:
Sell this Port Harcourt refinery to the private sector, private investors, entrepreneurs..the private investors are the ones that can run and operate bussinesses, refineries very well and effectively..see Dangote refinery... a private refinery ..owned by a private investor...Dangote refinery is still operating and running effectively without any problems ..the main role of government is to create a conducive environment for bussinesses, refineries to thrive and excel ..not to run and be operating bussinesses and refineries..so federal government and NNPC sell out the port Harcourt refinery to the private investors entrepreneurs to run and operate the refinery so as to avoid all this unnecessary stories

You're asking them to dispose off their cash cow? Why would they want to do that?

I fight fierce and relentless demons; the bigger they are, the harder they fall.

I'm in 3 WhatsApp groups for just extended family, I've never met 70% of the total number of people on these groups, neither have I ever commented save when I was added.

MadPolitician:
In saner climes, you can easily use the amount expended for this audio rehabilitation to pratically build a new refinery. Or at worst add another billion and you are ready to go. Turn around maintenanceof these obsoleterwfineries have now gulped billions and nonse of the refineriesate working. . This so called rehabilitation was over inflated. The price is simply outrageous. At the end, there seem to be no serious work done and the country has now been duped right left and center yet again by an evil party that likes to front its fake anti corruption credentials at every turn.

Imagine this: a 1.24 million bpd refinery in India cost $6 billion to set up, while rehabilitating a 60,000 bpd refinery in Nigeria, operating at just 70% capacity, has already cost $1 billion. Now, less than a month after operations began, issues are already piling up. Nigeria is gone. O ti lọ.

Jomonix:
Our choices are as diverse as the numerous bodies in the galaxy. Your post is so deep and important. It's at the root of failed marriages. You can't marry to change a person because he or she might not even understand why and how her or his choices are affecting you. While your choices are ok to you it's strange to others and there are millions who will welcome your choices.

Spot on! Just to add, while these choices may be diverse and individualistic, they are not all created equal. Some are simply terrible choices judging by their outcomes. When millions welcome it it becomes normalized, and it ultimately harms society when enough people make such choices. While tolerance of divergent views and lifestyle choices is crucial to counter society's potentially oppressive and tyrannical tendencies, we must draw the line somewhere—otherwise, the whole thing risks crumbling into filth.

Fun thread LMAO!

Las las, na political correctness and fake-ass wokeness wey go end this world. WWIII, COVID 50, asteroids dem, alien invasion dey look us like, "Una no need us; una go use una own hand finish everything."

TheBillyonaire:
The transient resemblance between the divine and human forms serves as a temporary framework for self-identification, with the genetic blueprint of the corporeal vessel acting as a referential scaffold for temporal self-recognition. In its essence, the soul exists as an energy vortex endowed with an all-encompassing knowledge capacity. It transcends the limitations of space and time, exhibiting omnipresence, omnipotence, and omniscience, while maintaining the ability to shapeshift, transmogrify, and transmigrate across all dimensions and spectral realms, guided solely by the power of intention. The soul and the divine are indistinguishable, save for the intention that fuels their respective roles.

But wouldn’t a mind recognize itself even in the absence of awareness of its containing body? Consciousness sometimes manifests in the dream world as an incorporeal point of view, almost as if it floats above the events as they unfold.

Although I haven’t personally experienced the boundary-dissolving effects of certain mind-altering substances, I’ve heard they can break the mind free from the perception of being confined to a body—perhaps without losing its history/memory, or personality (at least not entirely), and without losing the awareness of individuality.

So why, then, is it essential for the soul, upon the demise of its host body and while transitioning to another dimension, to retain its corporeal blueprint for the sole purpose of self-identification? With its senses amplified by several magnitudes and gaining capabilities far beyond what this "tip-of-the-iceberg" existence allows; including all-encompassing knowledge and transcending space-time, shouldn’t it be able to self-identify even if swimming in a boundless sea of souls, flowing together without boundaries?

I like the idea of the preeminence of intention as a distinguishing factor between the soul and the divine. Circling back to the original post and your initial comment, I’m developing a perspective where humans are bodies and minds inhabited by superlunary souls. If the body-mind is a puppet, then "soul-intentions" are the strings that move it. At death, these strings are severed.

How close, or far away, is this view to your belief?

This has gotten even more interesting. What is this worldview called? I want to learn more.

TheBillyonaire:
The fundamental nature of existence can be distilled into a straightforward concept: our reality is an intricately crafted realm designed to facilitate experiences beyond our customary existence. This elaborate cosmic dance can be likened to a divine game, in which celestial beings assume the role of human avatars within a meticulously regulated dimension.

Using the analogy of a game, when we play, there are often in-game objectives designed to engage and challenge the mind which ultimately contributing to the overarching goal of entertainment. What, then, is the purpose of the game we call reality? How is it structured? Is there "winning" or "losing"? What is the fundamental architecture of the "engine" that drives it?

What is the nature of absolute reality—beyond the 0.012% we can perceive? If reality is designed as a playground for souls, most of whom experience it purely through sensory perception as rendered by the mind and mediated by the body's sensory apparatuses, why does 99.98% of it remain imperceivable? Wouldn't it seem wasteful to construct a world where only the tiniest fraction is ever rendered for the vast majority of players?

The randomizer responsible for the vast spectrum of physical and mental variance among corporeal characters would have to execute only upon entry into this realm at the instantiation of a soul. If that is the case, are these celestial beings discrete, independent consciousnesses before they enter this realm? If so, how can they all simultaneously exist as omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent without overlapping?

May our hands never bring our own downfall. Amin.

The cost has spiked dramatically, becoming increasingly elusive to the multitude pursuing it.

How much would it cost to renovate a 4-bedroom house (with 2 toilets and 1 kitchen) on a 50x50-meter footprint? A rough estimate will be sufficient, nothing extravagant or particular classy. The scope of work is listed below:

* Replace PVC ceiling with new POP ceilings.

* Repaint the interior and exterior walls, including the fence.

* Upgrade toilet plumbing fixtures (sink, toilet, faucets, etc.)

* Install new kitchen cabinets and countertops.

* Replace or install modern light fixtures.

* Landscaping, including hedges and lawn.

They should sha be quick with their investigation. If the man is innocent let him be released

Even though a heart attack could be plausible, since she died in his house and there aren't other witnesses to corroborate his account, it'll will be difficult for him to prove his innocence unless an autopsy conclusively rules out foul play. Na Naija we dey, he’s unlikely to be let off easily unless he plays ball.

TheBillyonaire:
At the precise juncture of life's cessation, the electromagnetic field governing the corporeal form experiences a marked diminution, while the electromagnetic field of the soul undergoes a concomitant amplification, thereby liberating the soul from its corporeal confines. As you survey your erstwhile abode, you will discern that your soul body retains an identical imprint of your physical form, replete with a heightened sensory perception that transcends the conventional five physical senses.

For instance, you will become cognizant of your thoughts manifesting as a holographic tapestry within your soul's magnetic aura, enabling you to interact with the holographic actuality birthed from your own cognitive machinations. Furthermore, the thoughts of others will likewise engender a holographic reality that envelops them, permitting you to observe their health status as hues of Red, Blue, or Green, with an impending demise signaled by an ominous absence of color.

In the midst of this heightened awareness, your attention will be drawn to a portal situated either by the door or in the vicinity. Your passage through this portal will unveil a world fashioned from the Islamic principles that have shaped your belief system throughout your earthly existence. This tailored realm serves as a testament to the powerful reality your mind has constructed over the course of your lifetime, with fellow Muslims encountering their own unique realities, sculpted by the nuances of their individual beliefs. Similarly, Christians and other religious adherents will be privy to their respective realms, each a bespoke creation reflective of their personal convictions.

These realms are not representative of the true nature of reality but rather serve as transient virtual worlds, existing as a means of processing your earthly beliefs as you transition beyond the confines of the corporeal construct. Your sojourn within this realm will be fleeting, as it functions as a conduit to another life or incarnation.

The act of self-reflection assumes paramount importance in this liminal space, as you undertake a comprehensive evaluation of your earthly existence and allocate a grade to your actions. It is crucial to emphasize that this process of introspection is devoid of judgment, as it is fundamentally a mechanism of self-assessment.

Religion inadvertently obfuscates the true nature of reality, as it encourages the cultivation of personalized beliefs rather than the pursuit of knowledge concerning the fundamental underpinnings of existence. The true essence of reality exists independently of religious or spiritual paradigms, transcending the confines of dogma to reveal life as a celestial holographic exhibition of divine entities assuming human form.

This is very interesting, Billy. What do you reckon is the true essence of reality?

Also, why do you think the soul would bear resemblance to the physical body since, I imagine, it would have no need for either the anatomical or physiological functions that necessitate the physical form? Without a physical context to define it, what would underpin this solely electromagnetic self? Coming from the understanding that thoughts arise from neural activity and memory stored in the physical entity, how would this soul be able to retain these capacities and interact with their products?

While different souls experience their moment of self reflection modeled on their beliefs, what will be the equivalent for the materialist atheist who doesn't believe in an afterlife?
