Israel and Iran will try everything to avoid an all out war

DrayZee:
You’re right...to an extent.
Androids that have excellent batteries are not less portable than iPhones. An extra 0.5-1mm thickness won’t make the phone unusable.
If it’s about battery, Samsung learnt from their mistake and created the Galaxy Note 9. A slim enough phone that had a solid battery, a stylus and headphone jack...it didn’t explode.
I like the excuse for the 120Hz. The iPhone 13 will confirm how true that is. But I know for sure that there’s no excuse for why iPhones shouldn’t be using Type-C connectors in this day and age. They have put it on both Mac’s and iPad’s (cause they don’t want to fall short of the competition), but they know that iPhone users don’t care about it anyway, so they hold back on it.
There are Androids that charge at 100W these days. The iPhone 12 charges at around 22W...and even that 22W charger, you have to buy it separately because it doesn’t come in the box. And price remained the same
Apple does the best for their pockets and gives the iPhone users just enough to get by, because they know the fan base will be there come rain or shine.
I will give Apple one thing...they still have the best user experience, even though they fall short of a lot of key features.

The lightening cord is a proprietary accessory from Apple. Simple put Iphone won't have USB charger not because Apple can't put it there, they don't want to (design choice). To them it's one of the few things that's unique to their brand. In a technological world were the lines for product distinction has blurred that they are all basically the same now. Those little tiny things set them apart.
Fast charging degrades battery life more. Every Iphone that leaves the production line is mean to last as when bought for 5 years!
That luxury is not afforded to android OEMs, since they all use the same OS, everything they can do to stay ahead is needed.
Blackberry would have still been here if only they stuck to what made them unique and some design and software upgrade.
Immediately they start to reason like more of y'all and blurred the line between BlackBerry and Android, they no longer became unique and lost out completely.
That's what would happen to Apple or any other OS that isn't Android.

In a highly competitive market, you stick to what makes you unique while borrowing important assets from your competitors.

The "Apple does what's best for its pockets" line is something that have caught that I don't understand for the life of me how people would think that. Which competition that's publicly traded isn't out to make profit. Do you think people invest money in APPL because they have nothing to use the money for?? or are you saying Android OEMs don't make profit from their devices...
Periscope camera, 100x zoom, and all those little things, how often do you use it? that features I can confidently say don't get used 70%+ of the time. But it has to be there for Android OEM to differentiate them.
Let me put it this way, how can you sell Samsung to say a OnePlus user when they basically run the same OS and do almost the same thing. That's where all these extra features come in. Oh! Samsung Y has 100x zoom, OnePlus doesn't but it still takes nice photos and all that.
Google and Huawei tried to put in a face unlock that's equivalent to FaceID, but it was expensive to justify in an Android market.
Apple has just three things going for them, trust, privacy and security. People buy Apple because it just works.

DrayZee:
Very good. The phones are still relevant...obviously. It’s Apple, they make only solid phones. That notched display with little or no bezels & the dual camera setup were copied from Android. Obviously a lot more people followed that path after the iPhone took it up.
Apple’s Face ID is top notch, but you shouldn’t even be comparing it to Android’s Face unlock. Android manufacturers barely claim to use any special technology for their face unlock...most don’t even advertise it. There’s a reason companies like Samsung evolved to the ultrasonic fingerprint sensor. If it’s security you’re worried about, that one covers well enough for it,
To your last question, Apple’s longevity for smartphone updates remains unbeaten. You’re just mentioning good qualities of the iPhone.
I mentioned how Apple has ensured that their iPhone’s still don’t have technology that is at least 5 years old now and you didn’t say anything about it.
You can love your iPhone and still admit that Apple is holding back on its customers. If they try this holding back with their iPads, Samsung will just finish them.

Samsung are relevant in the smartphone business. When it comes to tablet and wireless earpiece, Android as a whole not just Samsung doesn't stand a chance against Apple.
What technology are they holding back really?
IOS doesn't require much memory to run unlike android that's heavy. Not a dig. Check real life test speed, for android to keep up, they have to increase the RAM.
Refresh rate? the 120Hz should have come with the Iphone 12 line up, but BOE couldn't produce LTPO screens that met Apple quality check. Running it on the normal screen with 5G enable with the low capacity battery in iPhone would be a disaster.
Large Battery? IPhone is designed to be slim and portable* that means there's not enough space left when you put in all the features on the phone. The space left is to disperse heat that comes with using the phone. Samsung Note 7 was famous for blowing up because they didn't leave enough space for the battery heat to disperse. So for such a small batter capacity and increased usage by users, Apple maintaining a good battery efficient that can last a whole day is impressive.

Crunchyg2:
Hello everyone, please I plan of opening a POS centre, I have processed a POS machine which have been delivered to me and also printed banners and secured a place where I can do my POS business but the problem is I don't have enough money left with me to start this business immediately that is why I am coming to the good people of nairaland. I am in need of someone that will invest 50k and get 5k interest every month or 100k and get 10k interest every month for as many months the money is invested in the business and anytime the person needs his initial money he can take it back only that he will give a month notice. I am ready to provide any collateral you need and ready to prepare an agreement and sign. Please any interested person should hit me up on whatsapp. My number is below on my signature. I am in Lagos incase you want a physical meeting. Thanks

Have you carried out qualitative market analysis to be sure that if someone invest such amount you'll be able to not only cover the interest after your expenditure but also stay in business

Difrent:
We can adopt this idea for those who can afford the gadgets and polling station for others ,the idea of jettisoning the polling station is a no no

that's exactly what he said

Difrent:
But you will disenfranchise a while lot of people who won't have access to high end phones that will have biometric features . Because you can afford such a phone doesn't mean everyone can, that's why the world over governments provide gadgets in certain locations so people can go cast their votes.....and in some cases like US things like mail in ballots and early voting to make sure every eligible voter votes.,....most Americans still go to polling stations to vote ,......even at that thy don't have 98% turnout.
Besides voting is a civic duty, don't elevate it to home entertainment or a game on a phone encourage people to go out and vote, except if conditions don't allow.,.....with your proposal many people will just vote along party , religious and ethnic lines which will mean NO CHANGE so I don't buy the idea

so what's your own idea?
can't Nigeria for once start something that others will follow? Must we always wait for others??

Soso990240:
How can the team that beat barca win it if they didnt play in the finals? ok, in plain terms.
Based on your analysis, after Roma knocked out Barcelona, Madrid was never in the finals, they just won their quarter final game against Juventus.
So, nobody knew who will be in the finals, making the statement "unless Madrid is in the finals" void.
Now, Liverpool knocked Roma out (7:6), Roma failed to win the Tournament, making "Any team that knocks out Barcelona wins the Trophy" void.
Go through this simple analysis slowly, digest it, then be cool.
The Nigga added "EXCEPT" simple because of the Roma case, can never be used as a record or statistics.

smh... one last time...
taking it step by step.
Note my statement: "Every team that beats Barca wins the UCL except Real Madrid are in the finals then Madrid wins"
Let's call the first part S1: "Every team that beats Barca wins the UCL" - this statement is true with Roma being the exception.
Now what was my exception rule? Fail-safe statement if you like. Let's call it S2: "Real Madrid are in the finals then Madrid wins" - this statement is true from '09 - 2020 is it not?
so how is the analysis wrong, you can argue for being vague but not wrong because that's a TT logic statement.
Let me break it down using your own theory. Roma beats Barca, yes? but didn't get into the finals so they didn't win the UCL, right? Now since Roma didn't win as my S1 stated who won? Madrid, right? just like the S2 state.
if you don't still understand it this time. I have no other way to explain it again

Soso990240:
Roma won Barca, but couldnt get to the finals. your analysis is wrong bro. If they couldnt face Madrid, then your analysis lacks meaning

based on the premise "Any team that beats Barca wins the UCL except Real Madrid are in the finals, then Madrid Wins" .....
can you point out how that analysis is wrong
I really did hope that dumbing it down would be self explanatory. But I'd love to hear your own argument

Etinosa1234:
U are actually the one that didn't understand what he said ...

Look at what he said originally(screenshot below)... Now Compare to when Roma won Barca but didn't get past the semis


His major claim was that whoever beats Barca wins the champions league unless they face Madrid... And this is false because Roma won Barca but didn't win champions league or face Madrid

Stop making excuses for him

oh! yeah... that's true. Roma makes the claim wrong

Etinosa1234:
U are the one actually on the wrong side

His claim is that any (note that he didn't say most or some teams )team that beats Barca since '09 wins except Madrid are in the finals then Madrid wins

This claim is actually false because Roma eliminated Barca but didn't meet Real Madrid and Still didn't win the Champions league

This clearly shows that his research is a failed one

Just accept the truth and move on

Actually read what you just wrote. His premise would have been wrong if he said "any team that beats Barca gets to the finals and win....."
He said any team that beats Barca wins the UCL except Madrid are in the finals then Madrid wins. This is true.
'10 - Inter Milan won (first statement is valid)
'12 - Chelsea won (first statement is valid)
'13 - Bayern won (first statement is valid)
'14 - Madrid won (exception is valid)
'16 - Madrid won (exception is valid)
'17 - Madrid won (exception is valid)
'18 - Madrid won (exception is valid)
'19 - Liverpool won (first statement is valid)
'20 - Bayern won (first statement is valid).

Your base your argument on the fact that any team that beats Barca gets to the final which is mostly true but that's not what he said. Problem is you didn't understand fully what his statement meant before you started trying so hard to prove him wrong

Etinosa1234:
So.what abt Roma...

The guy obviously did his research before saying what he said. You are on the wrong side here. Just accept and move on doesn't make you any less of a football fan.
He said any team that beats Barca since '09 wins except Madrid are in the finals then Madrid wins.

when we stop being inferior and second class. Mexico calls their street food "Taco" ... everywhere in the world it's called Taco. And you want us to call Garri that contraption you wrote there. If foreigners can't pronounced Garri, there should take online class for that. Enough of all these nonsense

Saudi Arabian oil that's one of the most sort after on the market will now be worry about Nigeria that we're constantly looking for buyers.
At least do some research before posting.

charlesucheh:
This British people are stubborn to the extreme o!!

Do they know the diplomatic implication of burning the American flag or that of any other country on national TV.

I just pray this ends well....

There's no diplomatic implications attached in this scenario just a bunch of fans protesting. Imagine losing your most trusted ally in Europe, someone who's ready to stand by you even when you make dumb mistakes and go all the way with you because some fans of some club burnt the flag. That'd be a very stupid mistake

CardiNice:
You just come online and start writing rubbish.
How can a brit be jealous of an American? Have you ever been to the UK?

The british society Is what the Americans are praying to achieve for many years now, some teachers in schools in united states don't allow their students speak using words like ain't, yeah, fork you and all that, they want their students to speak using the normal British English.
Try watch lots of American high school movies then you will know what i am talking about and lastly, Britain is one and the only true ally of the united states of America, do you know why each elected president of the united states of America always makes it very important to visit the Queen? Go and do your research about it.
The united states might have a higher military ability but Britain will forever be the Queen mother of America.

And lastly, Ghana and Nigeria are not in a secret competition, the fact that there is corruption and insecurity in Nigeria don't give you the right to put Nigeria and Ghana in a supremacy battle, that's an insult to more than 200 million Nigerians.
Anyways i don't blame you, because maybe you feel that because Twitter puts it's headquarter in Ghana, now means Ghana is better than Nigeria.
If not for our useless government and unstable business environment, i am sure by now there will be more Africans using 2go than those using Twitter or Facebook.
But Nigeria government keeps frustrating innovations.

So you thought he was saying rubbish and it was wise for you to also say what doesn't make sense. American English is different from British. Pronunciation and spelling. Ain't and all that are not standard American English. they are termed slangs or more realistically "ghetto language". Do you use "Sabi" "I dey come" in school here in Nigeria
HRM The Queen Elizabeth II is not the Queen Mother of America. She's the Queen of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the Commonwealth. Visiting The Queen is just a diplomatic way of showing the world the tie between US and UK is still strong. It's the same diplomatic gesture of the new elected President of the United States calling different Head Of States once he's been sworn into office.

dermmy:
Israel and its over hyped air defence systems.

No system is 100% accurate. The success rate they usually go for is 80%+

sulasa07:
What about jf-17 thunder made by Chinese/Pak?

JF-17 can't even be in the discussion. Any of those 3 will blow it from miles away

Rugaria:
Step away from the propoganda bro,
Russian military technology is solid and cheap!
Don't let hollywood fool you..
Russia has the best Air Defence System, the best ICBMs, some of the most rugged tanks and missiles the world has known... All cheap!
Even in small arms, the over maligned AK 47, with all it's well documented problems was until recently the most rugged gun that can be used both in the winter and summer, Sahara and antarctica, without rust or jamming, once the necessary cleaning measures are done.. Their hand held anti aircraft missile launchers are extremely dangerous..
I don't want to go into their missile programs.. Game changers!
Most of the capabilities of the su-57 are still unknown, but be rest assured that it will be loaded and rugged as usual.

Dude you're going through a long story. F-22 is unrivaled in Air superiority. Once it gets the HUD in its latest upgrade even the F-35 won't be a match for it any more.
You're the one listening to propaganda. Bar the Ak-47 that's ruggedity tested, the S-400 has never shot any SAM in real combat. Israel successfully destroyed the S-200 and the S-300 was also destroyed in Armenian war. That's real life combat. On paper those two are good SAM systems that should be able to create Anti-Access Airspace.
Real life scenario is very different from paper capabilities.
Russia needs their ICBM to travel all the way to America, America doesn't need that. Most of its ICBM in silos has been disarmed and refitted into SLBM and some are in Europe. So Russia needs its ICBM to be better.

Parachoko:
So is the J20 as good as the F35?

In terms of range and ordnance, the J-20 is better.
Stealth, Situation Awareness, ECM and other 5th gen characteristic. The F-35 is far ahead
Overall ranking the 5th gen fighters in the world right now. Top 4 will be:
1) F-22 (lacks the situation awareness of the F-35. Will get it in its block 4 upgrade)
2) F-35 (it's a multi-role fighter. Reason it's not #1)
3) Su-57 (because the Russians have proven to be just as good in weapon manufacturing)
4) J-20

Parachoko:
Stop downgrading the SU57. Though the J20 was built for a specific reason, so is not in the same league as the SU57,F22 and F35.

Not downgrading anything. The Su-57 is not combat operational yet. The latest testing was in Syria. It hasn't been declared combat ready.
The J-20 has been deployed (combat ready) but hasn't engaged in any real life combat.
The F-22 and the F-35 have been tested in real life combat scenario.
They are all termed "5th gen" fighters by their respective countries.
how are they in different league??

Rugaria:
Price overblown.
The Russians built something similar but far cheaper.
Sukhoi Su-57
Or the Chinese J-20
All similar capabilities.
Jst less propaganda noise and much cheaper..

Guy propaganda or whatever aside... The Raptor will smoke the Su-57 (still in testing, no real life combat experience) and the J-20 out of the sky.
"Once the Raptors are in the air, the only safe place is on the ground"

Did I say Samsung is an American company? Learn to understand context before saying trash and to clear your ignorance, they don't have to be owned by America to be favored by them.

"The Samsung bubble is about to burst! China coys are stepping up in full force and no, USA won't be able to save their sorry *ss this time."
That quote is self explanatory. There's no hidden context to understand there.
Why would America want to save a Korean company from the Chinese?

questechie:
The Samsung bubble is about to burst! China coys are stepping up in full force and no, USA won't be able to save their sorry *ss this time.

Samsung is a Korean company not American. Research before you laugh

Saintmary:
I already know everything you typed, his family was exiled FYI.

Then you first statement is false cause once you're exiled your title is gone too. An exiled King is no longer a King neither a Prince nor Princess.
PS: All I did was explain to the first guy why he wasn't called King but The Prince.

Saintmary:
He was born a prince in Greece.
He didn't lose his title, so he remains a prince.

He was sent out of Greece of some sort. Found his way to England, joined the Navy. Fell in love with the princess. But they couldn't married according to ancient laws. They did have a secret engagement so for their union to be acceptable, His Majesty King George granted a royal consent for him to be coronated Duke of Edinburgh converting his name to Mountbatten making it possible for him to married the princess.
Once a prince accent to the throne he becomes The King and his wife a Queen. Once a princess accent the throne, she becomes The Queen and the husband, The Prince. not a King. this makes it easier to understand the chain of command with The Queen as head of the family.

Kriss216:
Your wife is Queen and they're calling you Prince. No be King suppose be em Title



Just thinking sha.

Her Majesty The Queen, is the head of the Royal family and the Church of England. In medieval times and till now, whoever wears the crown was the head, which was mostly reserved to the males hence Kings. When that was abolish to include females, having a King when the Queen is the head wasn't a good idea.
When there's a King, the wife becomes Queen. But when there's a Queen, the husband becomes a consort hence "The Prince" not a prince. It's more of a title to show reserved loyalty to the Crown and The Queen

Skipperrabiu:
whats does the third law of motion says ,' at every momentum a body is said to remain in a state of rest unless it's acted upon by an external force , so third law of motion is obeyed

isn't "action = reaction" the third law?

start advertising online and offline. Do a promo. That will draw your first customers in. Keep in mind that you maybe running at a loss in the first few weeks or months before you break even

In Nigeria, you shoot Gunmen and negotiate with Bandits.
I hope with this few points of mine, I've been able to convinced and not confused you that we need to restructure this country.

gawu1:
The appointment of the present IG is not the first.
How did Obasonjo appoint IG when he was in power?
How did Yar'adua appoint IG when he was in power?
How did Jonathan appoint IG when he was in power?
How has Buhari deviated from the others.
Did the constitution says he must appoint from a particular tribe?
There are precedence. In what ways has Buhari gone against the precedence.

smh... so because the first person smoke bomb you should also smoke bomb?
He was riding on the mantra of change and doing exactly the same old ways yet somehow to you that's alright.
Las Las Nigeria deserves what they have
