I just realised that the current ES of the NCDMB's tenure is to elapse by September. Then he'll either be reinstated or a new ES will be appointed. I really hope he plans on finishing the recruitment before that. Often times a change in management of an agency can delay and mess with on going recruitment for a long time. Does anyone have any inside info on when they plan on wrapping the process up and sending APL's. Also when the test will be.

I'm happy that there was an extension so other people had a chance to apply but I really wish it would move fast. I'm eager to know my fate and move on if I don't get it. Me I'm also still curious about their pay and if they give upfront and other allowances too that are usually present in agencies under the MPR.
Has it been confirmed that the agency is NCDMB?

I stumbled on this thread today even though I've applied for the job a while back.
After seeing people talk about getting an email to update their account, I checked my spam folder and saw that I got the same email.
But going to the website, I'm kinda confused on what exactly I'm supposed to update. The email itself does not specify what needs to be updated.

What a giant piece of pesudo-intellectual bullsh*it.
To think that some people are swallowing this nonsense hook, line and and sinker is mind boggling.
There is hardly any topic concerning human being that can be viewed through the prism of absolutism.

I wonder where you made this deduction from. Certainly not from this article.

The quicksand and lava are just examples. The list is a nonexhaustive list of things that could be employed in an anti-immortal offensive aimed at incapacitating such immortals.

But you are too invested in arguing nonsense to understand.....
Lol.
You managed to come up to the worst possible type of examples.

This center of gravity has come again.

Ogbeni, the keyword is "secure". A secure facility. That building was far from secure. A skyscraper in the middle of the city. wow.
What makes you think the location is not secure?
The black chick was only able to get into the facility because she had inside help.
The room where the captives where held is behind a shit tonn of locks. The room has no window so it's not possible to jump in from outside.
The also have dozens of security guards that are armed to he teeth.

Simply because the movie didn't go the exact thing you want does not mean it was bad.
TV/Movies › Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Gmajor(m): 6:12pm On Jul 14, 2020
The truth is that a lot of people don't really know how to criticize movies. Oftentimes, you'll hear people say that a movie is filled with plot holes or that the characters don't make good decision and thus the movie is bad.

Even in real life, people make poor decisions and unless the poor decisions are so bad, extremely unfantomanly or incredibly dumb, it doesn't necessarily make a movie bad.

* Most people are not geniuses, thus, they make shitty plans and decisions
* People get outsmarted thus thwarting their plans or decisions
* Sometimes plans have to be made on the fly or amid stressful circumstances thereby jeopardizing the efficacy of the plan. Etc

Movies require some suspension of disbelief in order for you to enjoy them. When you go through most movies with a fine tooth comb, you'll see a lot of things that don't make sense. Someone mentioned Avengers and the MCU recently on this thread as regards Old Guard, but I bet that the person doesn't admit that there are a lot of things in the MCU that doesn't make sense.
For instance, why is everyone who doesn't have super powers not wear an Iron Man suit?
TV/Movies › Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Gmajor(m): 5:33pm On Jul 14, 2020
The Old Guard 2020

I liked it.
The acting was good, the characters were well fleshed out (some more than others) and the chemistry between the characters was quite visible.
I like how the final boss was vanquished but overall I thought the could have improved the fight scenes. The fights in Atomic blond starring Charlize Theron were done better.

The story isn't great and was predicable at times but at least it was enjoyable.
The villain is also a cliché.

I still don't know how I feel about the mythos of the movie being left surface level. At the end of the movie we still don't know where their powers come from. Why does someone lose their power? We also don't really know the full extent of their regenerative power.
Can they regrow a limb or head? It would have been cool to see someone regrow a limb or something. Though they may be saving some answers for the sequel.

I also think that the movie was too long. 10-15 minutes could have been cut from the movie without any detriment to the story.

Overall I'm definitely look forward to the sequel if and when it comes out.
7.5/10

Just admit that you lack creativity. Armoured piercing bullets, quick sand or lava traps are reasonable tools in incapacitating immortals.

Please, stop mocking things you dont want to understand.
You do realize that they were held captive in a RESEARCH FACILITY, as such, the villains location makes sense.

Your so called creativity is quite laughable.

You guys should check this Netflix original--- Love, Death and Robot ( ie if am not late to the party). It has one of the nicest animation(s) I have ever seen.
You will not be disappointed.
Is a 100 for me.
I watched a few episodes.
Not really my thing. The episodes were too short for me to get invested in anything.
Some episodes had good premise and overall the animation was good, but I wouldn't really recommend the show to any one.

sadly, snake DO hibernate in the winter... its called BRUMATION.
glad i could educate you too, thank me later!
You obviously didn't see that I wrote technically in my post.
Brumation is similar to but not the same thing as hibernation.

You've also not answered how snakes survived extreme cold for thousands of years.

educate yourself on HIBERNATION... unless you believe that all snakes die in the winter and miraculously appear from the sky in the summer.
You could do with a bit of education yourself.
Snakes Technically don't hibernate.

With the amount of racists in the police force, you really do not believe that racially motivated police brutality does not exist. This is a whole level of ignorance. With all the videos showing racial profiling plus brutalities, you want to remain skeptical. Nonsense.
https://theintercept.com/2017/01/31/the-fbi-has-quietly-investigated-white-supremacist-infiltration-of-law-enforcement/


Also, if you have never lived in a developed country and you are using Nigerian sense of morality to judge things, you would be ignorant of 2 things

1. Police in many developed countries (EU especially) rarely carry guns and rarely get into physical confrontations leading to death or bodily harm.

2. Racism. A lot of racism is not quantifiable and as such, without experience, a lot of racism seems over-hyped
In response to number 1, you'll have to admit that the US is a very unique country.
I don't think there's any other country in the world where you can get a gun as easily as the US.
Due to the fact that a lot of citizens are armed, it makes sense for police officers to be armed as well in response.

Two heroes fighting eachother and then abruptly end the fight by calling a mutual's name which they didn't I initially know eachother knew...
When Bucky's name was mentioned Captain America paused long enough for the other Captain America to get an upper hand.
In BVS, when Martha was mentioned, Batman who was about to kill Superman suddenly became super best friends with him.
So, yeah. The two scenarios are very different.

Have you seen how you applied the formula and found out why? grin grin

When I watched it the only things I hated was that Martha scene and Doomsday's look(which I still hate) although not as much as before and then the ultimate version came out and I rewatched it and I found out it was actually a really nice movie, the first time my anger no let me enjoy that Batman W/h scene cos I done dey vex from outside sef dey enter cinema grin but on the 2nd rewatch (ultimate edition) I even asked myself why I hated that Martha scene in the first place huh
The MCU also did something like that scene in endgame when Cap was fighting himself thinking it was Loki till he called Bucky but nobody criticised it..that's why I'm glad Alex discovered this formula tbh grin grin



The two scenarios are incomparable.

True to your word, you're really not a fan of anime. While Death Note is really good, it's not easily the best anime ever. It's not even the best anime, period.
I've seen a little of Naruto and I hated the titular character, I hated the dialogue, I hated the action sequences ie how fights were constantly paused so that people who are fighting can dump a bunch of exposition on the viewer or how a lot of the fights were just a blur of fists and legs or how fights went on for too long but felt very unsatisfying at the same time Etc.

I've also seen a little of Dragon Ball and after a few episodes I wanted to gouge my eyes out.

I've seen some other animes that I can't remember their names and they were just meh.


However, I really like attack on Titans- I like the lore of the world, the writing, the characters, the action sequences etc.
I also think One punch man is really good.


Even though Avatar TLA is not considered anime, it could be one of the best if it was

we're saying different things actually.
Airtel night plan doesn't continue from where the downloading item stops when you exhaust data. So you have to monitor with data counter to know if the data will be enough for the next file you wanna download cos once you exhaust halfway, it'll stop even if you have a live airtel normal data. For it to continue again, means it'll start afresh
Not true.

Over #170mb burnt. cry cry that one for give me one or two episodes of Anime I'm trying to hook up with.

@whitelotus could you give me links to Death note. When I'm through with Castlevania I have some Anime I'm going to dive into. Pics below grin that genre been making sense lately, with dark and gritty takes on it, even Nudity grin (Castlevania).
The problem is from the link not UC browser.
Some links don't support pause and continue.

I'm not a fan of anime, but Death Note is easily the best anime ever!
