Foreign Affairs / Re: Revisiting The Basics About The Current Balance Of Military Power by emae009(m): 9:06am On Jan 01, 2022
Lol... A long epistle from the self-claimed "woke people" to explain nothing.

I like how you all always downplay the capability of the US. It makes for a good read.

The hail mary phrase of "Lost all the wars since WWII" is always the first blow. Follow by touting weapon systems that aren't battle tested (in contested environment) and claiming superiority to ones that have been tested and proven themselves.

Well it's a new year. I hope you lots do a lot more reading this year before displaying ignorance on a public forum
Sports / Re: Emmanuel Dennis Pulls Out Of Nigeria's AFCON Squad After Pressure From Watford by emae009(m): 8:22am On Jan 01, 2022
To avoid all these hullabaloo. I believe the AFCON should be moved to a summer schedule like other continents' tournament.
I know tradition plays a major part but we are in a dynamic world. Change is always inevitable

You didn't! If you actually did, could you tell me in clear terms which crypto coin would moon x100 by this time next year?

I have like 5 I'd recommend but I won't, on grounds that you don't that both scenario (blackberry demise and crypto prediction) are not the same thing.

Most top analysts had predicted that by now Bitcoin would hit $100,000 price point. At the time, they weren't wrong but look where we are now.
Blackberry on the other hand were making mistake after even after so many before them had fallen. they refused to listen and doubled down on their stubbornness until it was too late. That is something that's easy to predict.

The market on the other hand is controlled by demand and supply forces with a sprinkle of whales movement. that ensures unpredictability.
Not even WB would give you predictions with 100% certainty

Officialgarri:
Let them suffer it. Enough grace has been given for people to get this NIN thing done but they feel reluctant to get it done.

Nigerians won't take things serious until it gets out of hand.
The Government should link NIN to BVN and let it prevent people from withdrawing and let's see how swift people will be

common backend verification with Telecoms companies is taking them this long. You want to overload with BVN.
Like FG like you, you guys like to created unnecessary workload and work overlap for nothing.

A more less time and resource consuming route would be to transition BVN to NIN. There are more BVNs than NIN. A simple database transfer would have solved all these problem.

The Advanced countries only have one verification code for very thing important. It's only in Nigeria that we are about having 3 and the 3 aren't interconnected.

The next Government will come up with their own Identity code.

Properties / Re: What About Using 9-inches “Solid Blocks” For The FOUNDATION Of Buildings.?? by emae009(m): 9:21am On Dec 29, 2021
BluntCrazeMan:
Ok.
..
The reason I wrote that is because:
If you increase the depth of the foundation in order for it to carry its own load, it will also increase its own load that it is supposed to carry..
..
Isn't it??

the weight of a 9" solid sandcrete blocks is massive. That's for just one. if you multiply it by the number of blocks needed to reach the "German floor". that's a whole lot of weight.
In Nigeria, except in specials scenarios, must construction are done by experience not what is stated by the Engineer.
A PS that has built a storey building before will always use that knowledge to build the next one without taking into consideration things like soil bearing capacity and others.

So why I said you should increase the depth of the foundation is because most foundation structures are built using the hollow blocks so whosoever is in charge will use that same knowledge without considering the weight of the blocks.
The foundation might carry but it will exert so much stress on it that it might be close to it's failure point

While the weight of a 9" sandcrete blocks is more than its hollow brother, the strength isn't. What Engineers tend to solve most in construction is how to reduce the weight (excessive load) without compromising the strength and stability of the structure.

Sure you can use it, but you'll have to increase your foundation depth to carry it's extra load which overall increase the cost of the project

And somehow, you believe those nuclear weapons would remain idle while the invasion goes on. Even American soldiers don't talk about Russia with such disdain like the way you fanboys are doing. Let them grow the balls to invade North Korea first before thinking about Russia. Didn't they attack Iraq for 'having' WMDs?

there are no nuclear weapons in Cuba. If you don't know something as simple as that. why would I bother to have a conversation with you.
what's the end game in invading North Korea or Russia. The way some of you reason ehn! it's like you don't have the capacity to think at all!

Believe American propaganda at your own peril.

If you didn't know, Russia and China used to be the countries they made such propaganda for back then because these countries did not allow America to propagate their freewill democracy there.

I remember when Russians were depicted by US media as people who still used donkeys and drive in old rickety vehicles.

Now, the world knows better that Moscow has one of the most elegant architectures in the world, China is no where near the ultra poor depiction they have painted it...

Lot of people still remember the Iraq WMD with Saddam Hussain. America killed Saddam Hussain only to enter Iraq and not one weapon of mass destruction was discovered.

Believe American propaganda at your own peril.

Sports / Re: Overshadowed By Mbappe, Messi Is LEFT OUT Of Ligue 1 Team Of The Year by emae009(m): 7:38am On Dec 23, 2021
Kingcalls:


Story...by winning 3 champions league titles and a disaster at world cups ...no single goal in any knockout game in the world cup, gas never ever scored a credible team in any International tournament for country, Chile being the biggest team he has ever scored( 1 goal this year) , Brazil multiple times no goal, Colombia multiple times no goal, Uruguay multiple times no goal, Germany 3 times no goal, Holland 2 times no goal, Belgium , swizz , Croatia , France ...the guy is a confirmed fraud.... Ronaldo dwarfs him in the champions league, suarez , sanchez have better records in the copa , the world cup has been nothing to show ....so its by la liga that Ronaldo even had a better goal ratio that he wants to use to claim greatest grin grin... balon dor can't determine the greatest cos if votes were credible, buhari no go de rule us.... or u can say modric is greater than iniesta cis he won balon dor, something iniesta cudnt win.... or ud say Kanye is greater than Michael Jackson cos he doubled the number of Grammies MJ won.... stop being deluded.... same French teams he was using to shine when he was in barca.... only dull people support messi cos a smart person willseemore than just his gaslight... we de use oxygen breathe...

Your wailing doesn't change the fact that Messi will retire as arguably the greatest of all time if and only if he doesn't win the world cup as the older generation won't give him the throne absolutely without it.
Ronaldo will retire as one of the greats in history if he likes let him play in all the leagues and score 2000 goals.

Those are facts, what you're doing is wailing. and I've told you this before

It's like you don't know what a treaty ischeesy

A country has to actually SIGN it before it can apply to them. US or any other country for that matter has no right to tell a sovereign nation what it can or cannot produce to protect herself. Even Israel is not a signatory to the treaty you are yapping about

Read wide!!!!

Why isn't Russia, their so called friend not backing them to produce that. Nor China or North Korea.
They are not the only countries to not sign it. Several others are there too and if those countries try the same thing, they'll be met with sanctions.
Nothing you nor I can do to change that

emmanuel1277:

This is why I say you are ignorant .....on the issue here.....there is no need to project power.....Russia is worried about its territorial integrity and the thing is it is technically impossible for its territory to be attacked without it leading to a catastrophic event and Russia is the one trying to prevent that here by halting NATO advance
And on conventional warfare bro Russia has the power to hold of america .....the only advantage america has in conventional military is with its air force and its projection which will be meaningless since the Russians have designed systems to ward that of

So bro you are talking something else


the real question you should be asking yourself is why would America fight Russia when they have them where they want them. Just a regional power unlike the Soviet Union.

You have a point though. But the same way there was some agreement on Cuba, same way was some agreement with the Russians.
Don’t miss that part.

The issue here is Cuba could decide to collect aids for Russia and take their weapons which would violate the agreement US had with Russia and escalate.

Same way, NATO is expanding East, which means it’s violating the arrangement they had with the past Russian govt, hence why Russia is para-ing. You gerrit now ? If you don’t gerrit Google is your friend, plenty articles.

any ballistic missile in Cuba will lead to a full scale invasion of Cuba within 14 days. With a Naval blockade, Cuba will not get any external help. Anybody that tries to help will collect.

Part of that agreement was the backdoor removal of missiles from Turkey. Those missiles have been returned to Turkey but Russia don't have the global power to mobilize into the Western Hemisphere and drop missiles in Cuba anymore.
The Soviet Union had, Russia doesn't

Thread of full of people that don't even know what they are saying.

NATO already have Russia where they want them, backed into a corner, without any real chance of expansion. The idea behind NATO creation is being fulfilled.

I'm seeing a lot of Georgia confrontation with Russia as a case for Russia bravado. You guys really need to read. Georgia wasn't a NATO state to being with so how did you expect NATO to come fight Georgia's war? you guys should make it make sense na.

Oh! the funniest one is MAD and how Russia has nukes to destroy the whole word. You guys should really read, most of the nuclear stockpile in the world are in cold storage meaning it will take resources to activate them. The question you all should answer first before jumping on nuclear way is whether Russia has the resources necessary to activate those stockpile faster than their Western counterpart.

Finally, this is a prediction. They will be no war whatsoever. Concessions will be make by both sides and Ukraine will be allowed to join NATO bringing an end to Russian aggressions against former Soviet states.

Russian lawmakers are suggesting that Russia deploys intercontinental ballistic nuclear weapons to Cuba and Venezuela. I believe that is the decision russia would take first before launching an invation.

funniest ish I've read. Those lawmakers need to read the conditions for which Cuba is allowed to be friends with Russia.
Any ballistic missile in Cuba will be a full scale invasion of Cuba.
Russia tries to help, them collect join.
