Are you guys not tempted to kill and eat them sometimes? Lol |
ZINIBANKS:So, to you, you've actually given him a very good advice on how to handle a scaredy friend? |
This happened more than a year ago though. At least, I saw it in 2019. Terrible. |
Lol... OP, why not just tell people to go to fetchtube (www.youmagictube.com) and supply the video ID to download the video just like numerous other third party YouTube downloaders do? You had to run around and make it look like some magic on the YouTube platform that has been recently discovered. |
Here is my take: As a religious follower of tech trends and an IT practitioner myself, I have come to have so much respect for Satya. Putting Satya Nadella as Microsoft's CEO is best decision Microsoft ever took. Dude's approach is idiosyncratic. He has taken bold steps in creativity, diversification, marketing, politicking, etc. and has taken the organisation out of their comfort zone and far into futuristic computing areas like AI, IOT, pervasive computing, etc. His cloud strategy is mind blowing and not only has it become one of the leading sources of revenue for the coy, it has also become a very tough competitor for other cloud solutions that were there long before it. Unlike the close minded and skittish Microsoft we used to know under Bill Gates, this guy has dared to delve into trends and has fearlessly taken risks while at it. He challenges every status quo and seeks better ways of doing things. This is exemplified by the introduction of .Net core (open source) and the subsequent purchase of Github (not just the heart of the open source community but also a platform used by many of her competitors). This was termed a "fruitless purchase" by the OP but it was actually a careful strategic purchase made to romance the open source community. Strategic purchases have less financial values (thus why anyone would term it fruitless). Examples include Google's acquisition of YouTube, Sun Microsystems' acquisition of MySQL, etc. LinkedIn's purchase, though controversial, was both strategic and financial. Tightly integrated with Skype and Microsoft's business solutions Dynamics 365), LinkedIn has become Microsoft's major source of revenue today (years after some guys at Forbes thought it was a wrong move) but even more interesting is the data power the app comes with. While this data power is comparable with Facebook, it provides a very different dimension. Data mined from LinkedIn easily provides insight into the otherwise grey areas of the correlation between regional education and social connections, and careers, technology adoption/advancement, expertise cluster, skill migration and demand/supply. You can't even begin to imagine the worth of these data to a company like Microsoft! Business wise, coming up with something better or buying off the existing ones either to build on it or to gradually kill it in order to create room for your product is nothing new and Satya is no stranger to that. Today, Microsoft remains the only software company that competes with almost all other software giants at the same time due to her diverse product lines. This explains why there's always a coalition of companies against her. Now, I said "almost all" because Microsoft is not a big player in the social media world and that's where TikTok comes in! At the very least, this means more data, more audience, etc. But knowing Satya, there's definitely more surprises to look out for! Facebook is about to launch a product similar to TikTok and Microsoft is only repositioning herself to answer that call while providing the data security lacked by TikTok. Like him or not, Satya Nadella came as a messiah to reposition Microsoft as the leading tech company and this he has successfully done. #MyOpinion |
Grandmeister:How were you able to tell that flu related deaths are termed corona deaths? Have you gone back to the site where you got last year's flu report to check for this year's statistics and it said zero? Bro, this kind of misinformation undermines the efforts of our medics and discourages people from staying alert. In 2020, flu cases in the US went up more 65%. 9.7 million cases, 87,000 hospitalised and 4,800 deaths so far. This record is well maintained and very different from corona case records. Let's stay informed. Cc: stanliwise Good evening. |
The cow is crazy for attacking the human owner who's got plans of killing it or selling off to someone who'll eventually kill it. Lol... sounds like NL boys calling a girl hoe for sleeping with a guy and praising a guy for sleeping with multiple girls. |
Bad |
[quote author=Kaycee18 post=92350669][/quote]I'm not really an expert. I know someone that used it and she applied it every night. I don't think there's an overdose, it's just like body cream. |
With time, it will be rarely noticeable. You don't need to worry or do anything about it though you can use python fat (abuba eke/ora ejo) on it to hasten up the process. |
Toks2008:OP, you are wonderful. Sorry I couldn't come up with superior words to praise you! We want women that aren't financial burdens, we want wives/girlfriends that also earn and support the home but we don't want to partake in home keeping. We just want them to do it all and like you said, we're happier when they do it the crude way. Misogyny! |
verminnel:Lol... this particular story has been reported before. Not sure this one will make it to the promised land. |
What for? |
A two-year old is the youngest teenager? What's wrong nah? Why do you people write like this nah? ![]() |
Like the guy above me said, you don't necessarily have to memorise syntax. The most important thing is learning the art of programming. Focusing on syntax will only make you language dependent. You can keep a reference book open while coding (I do this when I'm working with a new language) and before you know it, you'd be typing without opening it. |
vicoloni:Those ones aren't your work. The OP is talking about what you have to do as an artist. Do your part and let God do his part. |
Nice. These things aren't easy (guys don't have the budget nor the connection as listed above), they may not work for some people even if they have it all and some people may be lucky to hit success without them but the fact remains that the factors OP listed above have a great impact on the success of one's song. A thoughtful post in my opinion. |
I want to hug the boy and tell him it's ok! ![]() |
engrsyer:Lol... No, the site may crash. |
Omar09:Maybe one of those buckets they keep for washing hands under the bridge! |
It's naming ceremony in Nigeria, guys! |
What is the problem, bro? Is that it is going on despite the pandemic or that it should be scrapped? I really don't see why people get worked up over the show. BBN is a station that can be turned on and off, right? If you don't like it, don't watch it nah. I don't watch it (can't access it) but I'm not better than those who do cause I watch Nigerian music videos which shows far more flesh and employs dirtier languages than BBN. Even the porn you mentioned has not been banned so why BBN? All these other shows you mentioned are great but there's no one body deciding which show should be produced, it's purely business/investment and anybody could start any show they feel is superior. It is not the fault of BBN producers that these other shows aren't on today. The difference between Africa and here is that Africans don't create room for alternative lifestyles. We always want to sell our preferences as superior and we'd go out of our way to force others into it. |
I wasn't there, I don't really know what was said and why but from what I learned, the argument wasn't even about literature but something in the area of sociopolitics and Achebe made that banter to suggest that Soyinka's political views/actions weren't necessarily always correct just because he was a well established writer. It might have been just a banter or a statement meant to just strengthen his own argument but being an established writer himself, he should have chosen other ways to do that because regardless of the intentions, this could easily sell as jealousy. I personally admire Achebe's writing skills much more than Soyinka's but this statement is/was a No-No for me. |
Lmao... I don't agree with some assumptions but then, there's no point pointing that out since it's not actually a matter of facts. Fela's own though ![]() |
emmyfresh200:Lol... who, the corpse? |
tonye33:Well, he's dead. |
This is obviously unintended, why are you sharing this? |
JONNYSPUTE:I didn't bother commenting on that cause it was obviously scripted. No one videos herself being harsh and even if that happens by mistake, they wouldn't share it with the public. I'm not even her fan. It's just egregious that such scripted events would make a man born and raised by a lady to start typing trash about a whole gender from his country just to be "man". |
