Christianity Etc › Re: I Cautioned My Pastor To Stop Mounting Marriage Pressure On Today by hotplate: 11:20am On May 19, 2023
Saviola86:
So today I had to call my resident pastor to order.

I am a 30yrs old guy and in a relationship with a lovely lady of 25. It's been 6 good years together building and improving ourselves.

I come from a family where nobody mounts pressure on anybody especially on marriage issue. My parents are so liberal that they trust our judgements and allow us to marry from anywhere we find love despite fact that we are igbos.

I and my fiancee have been through different stages of life because she was 19 when we met, I was a dead broke ass graduate then without a job and still going from one interview to the other. I was so broke that my young fiancee then was the one giving me money to go for the interviews (she was running her mom's store then). Aside that she would bring food and sometimes get me clothes. When I say I was broke, I mean totally broke

God did it I secured a job of 60k a month and a year later got a more improved job of 100k. I don't drink and don't spend recklessly, I was able to save and began a POS business which my fiancee 20yrs as at then was running for me in her mom's store while I was working. To Cut long story short, my fiancee is in her 300L now in school while I have ventured into other business and I can say I make about 500k monthly combined.

On reason why I caution my pastor, in church I am one of the youth leaders and a key figure and most of my friends or mate in the ministry are married and my resident pastor took it upon herself to always use me for jokes or call my name from the alter to go and marry.

You'd here bro sososo go and marry and the congregation will laugh, during meeting you will hear word like don't be like bro sososo who wants to become a grandpa bachelor.

Once any member marries you will hear bro sososo we are waiting ooooo.

Like I don't find that funny, she is mounting unnecessary pressure on me which I don't like. Will she be the one to take care of my family?

Sometimes she goes as far as introducing a sister in the church to me.

So today I had enough, called her after service and told her my mind. I know she will feel disappointed but for my mental health I needed to put a stop to that rubbish.

My friends in church are married and to be sincere they look like shadow of themselves.

My fiancee is in school, she was there with me during tough times, she built and grew with me and even in school she is also learning a trade and preparing for life after school. We agreed to marry immediately after she graduates (next year) and so far everything is going as planned
Inspiring please can you reply my mail I'd like us to link up, Am also of the same age without any stable job for now but on a monthly basics i make up to 70k I'd like you to indrouduce me inro your line of business

Some people doesn't deserve help in this life, some doesn't want others to progress while some just want to pull everything down because it doesn't benefit them at the moment. About three years ago I was freely giving out information, helping those that I can help freely without collecting any money from them but I was insulted by the same people I was helping,many of them called me a scammer grin just because I gave out information, some even send threatening mails , some thought I was giving out information to limit there chance in agencies they have interest and connect cheesy they will send a threat message to my mail then rush to this thread and come me a scammer grin while those on this thread join them too cheesy it was funny those years I wanted to stay but some of my friends here advice me to leave the thread for you guys which was the best advice. Many people was pushed out of here I am happy that the thread is still moving grin I wish everyone here good luck.
Let the evil of people not stop us from doing good. I know how it feels when ones selfless service is been ridiculed rather than been appreciated and encourage. The rewarder of all men sees the heart of everyone and he will surely reward you in due time. Biko consider persons like me, if people like you stop what you do someone like might never get this Job; where i wan for see the connect. I'm still praying and hoping that someday grace and favor will shine on me.

Phones › Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by hotplate: 7:27pm On Apr 22, 2023
Please any Idea how much the Note 9pro and 10pro cost currently?

atheistandproud:
I'm not sure you did. With all due respect. Because if you did and you understood what you checked, you won't say this. The Note Pros have always been ahead of the vanilla notes.

SoC
RN9 pro - Snapdragon 720G
RN12 4G - Snapdragon 685

Mind you, the RN9 pro is 3 years older. If you want to see the gap between them, just copy and paste, TOP 100 SMARTPHONE SOCS IN THE WORLD 2023, and do a simple google search.

The RN9 pro can do, from games, to speed, to heavy duty video editing, the RN12 can only dream of it.

In fact, even the older RN8 Pro, with the Helio G90T will wipe the floor with the RN12 4G. Not to mention the RN9 pro.

Cameras
Whether is camera sensor, resolution, ISP or even software, the RN12 is not fit to clean the shoes of the RN9 pro. Day and Night, light or without light, photo or video, the RN9 pro is better than all the RN11 Pro series, na come small RN12. The only mainstream Redmi Note that beats the RN9 pro na the RN10 Pro and probably the RN12 Pro. I no dey count 12 Pro+ 5G.

Display
All modern phones use AMOLEDs now, so the RN9 pro uses LCD. I won't call it a minus because at the time, LCD was the standard.

Battery
The same, although the RN12 will conserve battery more. They both have 33W fast charge.

So as you can see, it's an unfair comparison. Anyone that drops their RN8 Pro, RN9 pro or RN10 Pro for RN12 4G is a big eee-diot. Sorry to say but it's truth.

For the Note series, Xiaomi never beat the RN10. The same way they have not beaten the RN10 Pro. Any other phone since then has been a step down especially the forgettable RN11 series. See as people dey sell them at giveaway prices just to buy the older RN10 Pro.

Christianity Etc › Re: Leaked Audio: I Will Not Campaign For Anybody Till I Go To Heaven - Oyedepo by hotplate: 10:36am On Apr 04, 2023
I didn't know you are the mind of BAT to be so sure his provocative choice of a Mu- Mu ticket was strategic and sincere. But you expect me not to believe that Obi's call to his spiritual father wasn't sincere and strategic? Did Obi in any of his campaign to the Masses mention anything like a Religious War? He is divisive uet was able to create a balance in his choice of a VP yet the person who isn't divisive couldn't see anyone outside his religion worthy to be his VP yet wants to be the president of Nigeria. I wasn't expecting anything different from an agbado supporter whose principal is a renowned Drug Daddy.

Agree to it or not every sensible Nigerians know that the do much talk about religion in our politics was provocatively rekindled by the supposed Strategic and sincere action of BAT... He his more interested in his ambition than the peace and unity of Nigeria.

spiralwedge:
There was no point in your long write-up. I only see you reacting to the strategies of BAT and APC, which were sincere and unprovocative like Obi’s.

Perhaps, BAT is able to prove a point that religion will have nothing to do with good governance henceforth and we believe him and voted for him. I am a Christian (RCCG/Anglican stock). But Obi and all the Christian clerics pathetically reacted without a strategy.

Politics is grassroots and it is strategic. That is why BAT does underground works for many years.

Christians, if they believe religion is important to them in governance, should have strategies and heavily participate from the grassroots.

Obi, in this scenario, is only taking advantage of the muslim muslim ticket. He has divisive antecedents and he would be an accidental leader if he had won. He had no manifesto prior to him defecting to LP, whereas BAT has a roadmap from only God knows when.

Obi would be a catastrophic national leader, my opinion. He is not fit for any federal appointment. He is best suitable for his state, where he may continue to deny Ebonyi indigenes rights to work in Anambra civil service. Even if Biafra has their country, he is not fit because he is divisive.
