Rest ogbeni grin

The Muslim world has been crying, begging and hoping that Putin come to defend the terrorists in Gaza. Some even went as far as praying he converts to Islam. It's what your Muslim brothers have been crying for since Isreal started pummeling them. Your ignorant brothers probably forgot that Putin detests terrorist lol. And can't even speak freely about this conflict 'cause of Ukraine

Guess what, if Syria so much as fire a bullet in this conflict they will be dealt with and nothing will happen. And btw, Isreal still carries out strikes in Syria till date, Russia knows about it too.

Their only difference is their allies.

Maybe not delve into to topics you know nothing about, ciao.
Like I said open mouth waaaa with no substance. You should give yourself that advice of not talking about things you know nothing about because its obvious you are poorly informed.

You were asking for what Russia has done. You were the one smoking weed thinking Russia must send military assistance to prove a certain point. I asked you simple questions? Why? Your only response is as usual nothing tangible.

Muslim world is crying and begging for Russia ke? Is the best you can come up with.

And as usual you assume everyone not on your narrow minded side is a Muslim. Please do well to go through my chats and see if at anytime I have claimed to be a Muslim. Such narrow mindedness.

If Syria fired a bullet again why will Syria fire a bullet? You see my problem with you is you have zero political nuisance. You think people just go ahead jumping into conflict because they are mad like you grin. Isreal attacks on Syria has always been against Hezbollah targets which are actually Isrealis enemies. They are the ones launching attacks also from Lebanon.

Please stick to other topics that don't require political nuisance biko. I am appalled at what I am seeing.

that means both parties would still continue hating each others which is very bad for both partieshuh

na wa oo
Yes that's the problem, that's what Putin is on about and why he is blaming the US. This conflict needs unbiased hands to fix it. US hardly fits thats description yet they highjacked the whole peace talks instead of letting people with no dog in the fight to come up with a solution that means yes both sides will have to make concessions but ultimately will lead to the end of this conflict.

As if it wasn’t his buddy Trump that leaked Israel’s security information to him which he in turn gave to Hamas; just so he can make the USA focus their resources towards Israel leaving him a clear path to conquering Ukraine? He will fail!
Where is your evidence or are these just your own speculations.

What most people don't get is that even Palestine are not interested in a two state solution...what Palestine/ Hamas really want is the obliteration, total wiping off of Israel from the map. they don't want Israel to exist at all...let alone exist on what they feel is Palestinian land. if they truly wanted a separate palestinian state, you think it has not been offered them? it has but that's not what they really want. Israel is surrounded by enemy states who do not want their existence. Israel is really facing an existential crisis and surrounded by people who want you dead, you will agree that you have to be tough with them, sentiments asides.
Will you keep quiet! When you don't know something close your mouth. See him head like Hama/Palestine want to wipe off Isreal. Just eating propaganda hook line and sinker with no atom of nuisance or attempt to actually get informed.

She already did grin What has Putin done, nothing but talk. There's a carrier on it's way, with F-35s too

Rumor has it that Putin actually pushed Hamas into doing this so that attention would be shifted away from Ukraine.
All these people who will just open mouth waaaa. Is Russia an ally of Palestine? Do Russia have any defence pact with Palestine? Why will they interfer or send military personnel or equipment to a conflict that doesn't concern them. If you want to see how Russia defends its actual allies look no further than Syria. Sometimes its not a must to talk

Putin a foolish man,
The USA will never support a two state solution in Gaza
There will be only one state and that state is Israel.

Why don't Putin allow the chechans to have there own state.
Yet he invaded it when they tried to break up from the Russian state.


Was it the USA that told Hamas to invade Israeli territories.
Was it the USA that told Putin to invade Ukraine Causing a war in Europe.
What Putin said clearly flew over your head. You have only succeeded in reinforcing his point about the US

Okay
That justifies the over 900 Israelis killed?


Think about it naaaaaaaaaaw
Count 1-900 and see how stressful it can be and know that that was the number of lives that was taken by these people because of interests
How many Palestine lives have been lost before and during this current conflict. When it reach Isrealis life its stressful to count but for Palestine its very easy

Wheel of Time season 2:
A huge upgrade to season 1, but episode 8 was disappointing IMO
My thoughts exactly just finally watched ep 8 and I am so disappointed. I mean they did so well but fail to stick the landing. They totally forgot Nynaeve and all the character development she had all season only for her to be extremely useless in finale. Why build her up if you won't stick the landing?

How did the Ogier and the others get freed? Lets not even talk about Ishamael reminds me of the night king in GOT. Again you built the forsaken up to be one thing then you just killed Ishamael like that? Its like different writers came in at the end.

Season 2 had a lot of good moments but they struggle weave it all together in the end. The finale felt too rushed, and all over the place. Still a Lanfear stan though, shes the best part of the show for me.

Hopefully they do better in s3. Definitely an upgrade from season 1 but still room for improvement.

Not necessarily. smiley
The op asked about styling (CSS).
Most of the tools I mentioned are CSS frameworks, not necessarily component based libraries.

Yes, if the topic is how I would write CSS in a react project, then I could write with vanilla CSS, or TailwindCSS, or bootstrap or bulma, etc. So if the discussion is limited to vanilla or TailwindCSS, beginners could go away with the impression that these are the limited possibilities.

My take.
Its literally in the topic boss. Css or tailwind. Never was it mentioned these are the only css frameworks. So I don't understand your queries. Its like me comparing react and solid js, doesn't mean there aren't other js frontend frameworks. Beginner who can understand English well, will know we are comparing 2 things not that these are the only ones in existence.

And yeah you mainly mentioned UI libraries not css frameworks as you claim. The only css framework there is bootstrap hence my comments.

But it's alright, enjoy your day.
Programming › Re: React + Css Vs React + Tailwindcss Which Do You Prefer?? by jikins(m):

This makes it seem as if Tailwind is the only option with React besides vanilla CSS. Folks that know how can build fantastic UI's with Chakra, material UI, even bootstrap.
Yes, Tailwind is hugely popular and makes sense, but this type of limiting question could give beginners a wrong impression.
Not necessarily, you mentioned UI libraries. Which is different from stying your own components from scratch or modifying UI library components with css. Using tailwind or vanilla css doesn't stop you from using your favourite UI library.

The topic was really css or tailwind in a react project not necessarily which UI library to use. Hope you understand.

OhBritannia:
For the records this will be my 3rd time rewatching the episode 6 of the season 2 of the wheel of time since i downloaded it this morning.

I swear!! I just can't get enough of this episode, the episode is too GOATED especially that scene where Egwene channeled to the tree and the tree caught fire 🔥
I replayed that scene all over again and again.

Then that scene when the Orgia started humming and the flower started growing.

So many memorable scenes in this episode 6.
The acting of this show went from manageable in s1 to breathtaking in s2. This is how a show should be it should always improve. It seems like the show runners took this s2 assignment with some vengeance because omo! The improvements are just too much it just warms my heart.

Sane people know Nigeria cannot just become eldorado in 5month. The only people that believe that are the headless mobs.

We will judge Tinubu based on his 4 years so anything you Obidient people talk no concern us.

As una talk say Tinubu no be una president, why you no go meet Obi the dullard to make dollar $1 to #5 within 4 month? Abi Wetin dey stop am?
Why all the insult on Obi way dey he dey. Nor be Atiku lawsuit be this. I don't get you guys. You always look for ways to insult the man even when he has nothing to do with what is happening. Focus on Atiku he is the one applying pressure to your principal.

Don't blame me jare. I have gotten so good with CSS, I just feel I don't need to use any styling framework. The main reason why I use styled components package is because it allows me to write my CSS in the same file with JSX (in react and Next JS) so I don't have to deal with creating and organising a separate CSS file. Also when compiling, styled components add the necessary -webkit styles for better compactibility with browsers similar to the way SCSS does it.
Well give it a try. I was like you once upon a time. Writing raw css was always my go too. But I had a project where tailwind was used I didn't want to deviate from the norm there. It was a pain at first having to learn the class names and the likes. The tailwind extension helps alot. But I was quickly converted.

I could be wrong though but I don't usually use styled components because I feel its just added javascript that needs to be complied by the client. Granted its fun to write especially when you can rename stuff like divs and the likes to more readable names, have type safety together with just writing js in css code can be very fun. But! but, the thought of sending even more javascript than necessary to the client haunts me when I use it.

React + CSS or React + Styled Components. I prefer writing my CSS from scratch because of its flexibility.
True, you just have full control with raw css but I feel a combination of both is best. You use tailwind for basic straight forward styling then css preferably sass at least for me personally for edge cases you can't achieve with tailwind.

° Brodaman, pls have you watched the new season? I had my doubt too but I can't wait to watch episode 4. Now back to the reason why I had to comment, how do you add to the page sir/ma? I hate people that complain without solving the problem. °
***Jarchi***


I too agree the new season has been much of an improvement from season 1. I expected more of the same going into s2 but I am pleasantly surprised. I just watched episode 4 and I have to admit amazon might finally have something here. Its still early days though, things can always go down hill. Really hope they keep this pace and even take it up a notch as the season progresses. I do hope rings of power follow suit but I won't hold my breath.

I don't think Baye increased it to the highest o. Neo just exaggerated for effect. She increased it a bit more but certainly not to the highest.

Of course ilebaye could have handled everything differently but I won't lie to you that girl was in a bad mood and sort of needed that music to relax a bit. She said it herself, I was in my feelings.

Before coming to that seat she had already had an issue with seyi who treated her clearly differently and worse off from Angel who was quite rude to him unlike Baye who was even polite. I think everything was just playing in her mind and added gradually to produce that kind of reaction from her.


To understand the ilebaye issue properly you have to put yourself in her shoes. Imagine staying in an enclosed place with strangers who treat you badly from the first moment you get there simply because they think you do not belong there. They attack you viciously and purposely misinterpret your actions. They lay into you at every chance they get. You try to be reasonable with them but they become even more unreasonable. After a while enduring that sort of abuse, you might start to react slightly out of character to seemingly innocuous situations.


What I am trying to say is that it will be difficult for me to put the blame completely on her for nuanced situations like this. When you consider the emotional and psychological background narrative, I get why she will not be hundred percent right or perfect in all of her interactions with the housemates, I get why in trying to stand up for herself in the face of such hideous intimidation and bullying there would be missteps on her part. I get it and I completely understand.


What is most important is that why she stands up to and battle these real and imagined demons that people on the outside validate her experience and continue to support her in this tortuous journey of resistance, self discovery, liberation, and vindication.
I believe she did. Not just from what Neo said watch the clip again you will see her press and hold the button that increases the volume.

That being said I understand your point of view. Yes she feel everyone is attacking her and what not she just got out of an argument and all that. But I can honestly give her more rope with this in mind but you can't tell me she's going to be in her feelings for days. That she can't apologise.

Its fine we are humans sometimes we can't perfectly compartmentalise. Our emotions for one person can flow to the next but we have to understand you aren't the only human on earth. The person you mistakenly transfered aggression to has their own demons and emotion they are dealing with.

Best thing is to apologise the next day when emotions are relaxed. Clear the air and also tell them what they did that trigger that transfer of aggression. Especially if you are in a confine place like this.

Not a phycologist but I do understand things take a toll mentally. But when you start pushing everyone away, you have sit down and start thinking am I doing something wrong? Everybody can't be your enemy or want to bully you.

First people were not sleeping. The entire house was noisy trying to settle the Ike vs Alex beef. All whitemoney needed to say was Baye please turn down the volume of the set. Shikena. Baye no be small pikin, communicate and she will get it. no be to put hand like almajiri then boldly go and lower the volume. You dey ment. Is she a joke to you?


In any case the previous night whitemoney stayed up all night working with that system till dawn. Nobody come meet am say whitemoney abeg go sleep e don do. Or whitemoney reduce the volume. He worked at his own pace and finished at his own pace. Couldn't he extend to ilebaye the same good grace that he so bountifully enjoyed? Him dey mad.


The truth be say if na another housemate whitemoney for no react like that. Him for approach that situation differently. Him for jump and pass, pretend like say e no concern am while the thing dey bite am for body, but unto say na Baye he wants to take liberties with her.
Let me repeat for emphasis, him dey mad.
Yes he probably shouldn't have lowered it himself but he did speak to her politely as he was doing it explaining why. Someone with enough tact even if you want to increase it maybe he reduced it too low will likely increase it a bit not to the highest. That's just madness and provocative. Its a dirty attitude. Its not unreasonable to ask someone to reduce the volume its late people are trying to sleep. Even if his approach wasn't the best but at least its a reasonable ask. You don't go ahead and do the extreme.

I staned Illebaye but even voted for the first time this season for her last week. Won't be voting for her anymore after this. I don't like unreasonable people. Everything mustn't be a fight. Its not as if he told her not to do what she is doing. Just reduce volume, that one self na big problem.

There was a scene in Ahsoka where a smaller ship docked in an open area in another bigger ship, I mean the docking area was opened to the outside while they were in space. Guess what, none of them were using a breathing apparatus bro, or are you saying that oxygen was supplied to the open area too??
The space looks open but it really isn't there's a magnetic field that ships can pass through but the magnetic field somehow traps their artificial atmosphere and preserve their artificial gravity. Its a common feature in star wars large warships. In certain animation of star wars I believe they do sometimes color the force field making it bluish if I am not mistaken.

They do have emergency airlock which can be activated if the magnetic field fails.

You can Google about it sha for more clarity.

At this point we already know who the winner of big brother naija is. What makes a reality tv show interesting is the u predictability.

Nigerians hv one kind mindset, no wonder we always vote in bad leaders.

A game has been turned into a pity party association. As time goes on very soon housemates would be agreeing amongst themselves who they want to win then start doing sth to them for the public to pity.

As pitying is now the key to winning bbnaija
I don't know why you bother subscribing in the first place when you have this knowledge. I mean you know something is one way then you still jump inside after you are now complaining its one way. I don't get. Whenever next season comes around spare us this epistle and not subscribe.
