lol, This dude has definitely been paid, dial it down a little so it's not so obvious.

Renji:
This is what you should have typed earlier. Next time, id try to be more realistic . But wouldnt it be cool if these were to be the real spec

They would be really cool, and that's the problem I had with your article, they're cool conceptual and or theoretical technologies that should be analyzed individually instead of all being jam packed into one small box.

Do you really believe Microsoft would make an entirely touch based controller? That doesn't make sense.

Abeg even the original might as well be fake because it's useless.

Renji:
You cant predict technology, it doesnt have a way it works. All you have to do is visualize it. What youre trying to say is that the specs arent possible or what? Could you ever believe that the specs of xbox720 be possible. Or you dont fathom my post. Tell me, id explain

All i'm saying is, when predicting future technology don't overdo it, make it realistic for it to be interesting, how to do that is to base your predictions on currently existing and obtainable technology especially in the case of game consoles which has almost never debut with groundbreaking tech.

If I were going to make a prediction of the next console generation I won't be far off to say that they'll definitely release wit ssds as opposed to hdds owing to the advances in storage technology, price reductions in the ssd market and also it's advantage for gaming because of it's speed.

But saying things like they'll probably come with biological cpus and trasmit data over the air at 100gbs in consoles that'll come out in less than a decades time?

Just make realistic predictions that'll grab people's attention and encourage them to get involved in the speculations.

You obviously don't understand how technology works, and probably think it's magic or most likely you're deliberately writing these sensationalist articles for some weird reason.

I need Modern Warfare 2 for PC

lol, nawa.

Well you need to upgrade it.

It's not virus, what version of Windows is it running?

The likelihood is that we all know at least one psychopath, as it’s estimated that between 1-4% of the population fall somewhere on the psychopathic scale. These people are often overly confident, manipulative, and lack empathy and remorse. Some are even violent, but not all. Many are able to quite easily live within society - indeed, for some professions, psychopathy seems to be almost a benefit. But psychologists are increasingly viewing psychopathy as less of a way of being, and more as a mental illness.

We often associate psychopaths with criminals and murders, the likes of Anders Breivik or Ted Bundy, but many people display some of the criteria that would put them on the scale. Most of them lead completely normal lives, and never kill or hurt anyone. Traits such as a tendency toward boredom, pathological lying, superficial charm, and impulsivity are just a few of the 20 signs in the PCL-R test, a psychological assessment used to determine a person’s potential psychopathy. As with any scale, there is no definitive line, with blurred boundaries of what’s considered normal and what is psychopathic.

This is something known all too well by neuroscientist James Fallon . He was looking at brain scans of murderers and criminals, comparing activity in the areas responsible for empathy with that of others who were considered "normal." This region will usually light up on PET scans in those people who feel empathy, but remain inactive in psychopaths. At the same time, he was also looking into Alzheimer’s, instead using scans of his own family and friends.

When looking through the images for the Alzheimer’s study, he noticed something was off. He found that one of the scans looked like it was from the criminal psychopaths study, as the region of the brain responsible for empathy had no activity. Presuming it had got into the wrong pile, he thought he had better check and broke the anonymization code to see whose brain it was a picture of. It turned out to be his. When he spoke to his colleagues, they agreed that he did display certain behavioral signs of psychopathy.

According to Xanthe Mallett , a forensic anthropologist and criminologist at the University of New England, there are certain signs she looks for during interview to judge if someone might be a psychopath. Often, she will look to see if their verbal and physical cues match up, as while psychopaths are often very good actors, they usually eventually slip. Another is the invasion of personal space, with one study apparently showing that “individuals with high levels of ‘cold-heartedness’ preferred shorter interpersonal distances.”

So if an extreme psychopath can be recognized and labeled, can they be treated? The answer is probably not. Firstly, they’re very unlikely to seek help, with the condition only normally being diagnosed when someone is arrested. Secondly, they simply lack empathy, and nothing can currently change that.

What are you usually doing when it hangs? Does it have an amd cpu? if so then it's probably overheating and you need to be conscious of the position of the vent.

But for now try running it in high performance mode for an extended period to see if it runs better.

Try it and get back to me.

OP I hope you never ever make your hair, or even wear lipstick or wear bra or apply powder of any kind on your face or even use'm lotion or deodorant because if you do then your a hypocrite because you're not 100% natural and have low self esteem.

Make this man siddon one place fulfil him promises na!

RedCard1:
@OP you forgot the worst problem of them all, THE CAMERA. I don't think it's 8mp like we were told and made to believe. The so called 8mp camera is rubbish compared to the 5mp camera on Samsung Galaxy J1. Even the 5mp camera of Lumia 520 that has no LED flash beats the 8mp of Infinix Hot2. When I heard about the release of this Infinix Hot2, I fell in love with it that I even wanted to buy it. But after handling my neighbour's Hot2, I have decided not to spend my money on that thing. Bad camera, poor screen, poor battery, the design isn't even attractive.

I'm not saying that people should not buy it oh.

Don't judge cameras by their megapixels, my 2mp lumia 630 takes better ics than my friend's 5mp galaxy s2.
The hot2 has an 8mp camera, what kind of sensor it has and how well optimised it is determines what it's results look like.

The Infinix Hot 2 is one of the most impressive budget devices we’ve seen in Nigeria for the year 2015. Why so? The phone is an Android One device. This simply means that Google partnered with Infinix to make the phone. Hence, users of this device will receive the latest Android updates as they come, directly from Google.

That asides, looking at the spec vs price angle, there are few devices that come close. After going through various complaints from people and threads in Nairaland, I’ve decided to compile the most common issues with the phone and proffer solutions for them.

Before we proceed, Here are things you should know:

The Infinix Hot 2 runs stock Android. This is very different from what you see on the regular Android devices you’ve used or seen before.
This phone runs raw Android – just the way founding fathers made it to be – without any extra customization. You should have this at the back of your mind.
You need to set up your Gmail account before using this phone. You can’t do much on this phone if you don’t do that immediately after purchase. Simply login (if you already have an account) or create a new one.
Now back to the common problems and their solutions.

Problem 1: I can’t see a file manager

After signing in with your Gmail account, the first thing you need to do is run to Google Play Store, and download a file manager. Es File Explorer is highly recommended.

Problem 2: I can’t use a custom song as ringtone

When you notice you can’t set a song as ringtone, then next thing is, use your ES File Explorer, navigate to the song you want, and set that as your ringtone.

Problem 3: I can’t find any gallery

The Infinix Hot 2 actually has a gallery app called Google Photos. Though, I’ll admit, the app looks weird and different from what we’re used to. To fix the problem, run along to Google Play Store and download Quick Pic. It is a lightweight and fast gallery app. Highly recommended.

Problem 4: I can’t play videos

If you can’t find a good video player on your phone, again Quick Pic is decent. For a more rounded experience, go ahead to Google Play Store and download MX Player.

Problem 5: The phone doesn’t have HSDPA

So because the phone shows 3G on the network signal bar (instead of H+), you people have concluded the phone doesn’t have HSDPA. If you dig around Setting -> About section, you’ll clearly see where it is shown. The phone has HSDPA. However, if you need to be able to see it reflected as an icon in the status bar, you can still go farther, by rooting, install Xposed Framework and Gravity Box, then set it up to write H+ on the status bar.

That’s all for now. The list will be updated as soon as see more issues to be addressed. You can sound of your thoughts in the comments box.

The 1st and most important thing right now is for more women to get into tech related courses, tech companies can't hire business or art graduates for tech jobs. :/

Pls get out from your comfort zone and find something worthwhile to do,so you would get a better device than that Error stricken Hot2...... Geez!

You should mind your business.

Turing Pharmaceuticals, the company that last month raised the price of the decades-old drug Daraprim from $13.50 a pill to $750, now has a competitor.
Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a specialty pharmaceutical company based in San Diego, announced today that it has made an alternative to Daraprim that costs about a buck a pill—or $99 for a 100-pill supply.

“While we respect Turing's right to charge patients and insurance companies whatever it believes is appropriate, there may be more cost-effective compounded options for medications, such as Daraprim,” Mark L. Baum, CEO of Imprimis, said in a news release .

The alternative is not exactly the same as Daraprim, but it’s close. Daraprim’s active ingredient is pyrimethamine, which has been available since 1953 for the treatment of parasitic diseases (namely malaria and toxoplasmosis). Imprimis’ alternative also contains pyrimethamine as well as leucovorin, which the company said helps to reverse pyrimethamine’s negative effects on bone marrow.

Until now, Turing was the sole source of a pyrimethamine-based drug, which is often prescribed to patients with compromised immune systems such as those suffering from AIDS and cancer.

The price increase of Daraprim, announced last month, sparked widespread outrage against the company and its founder and chief executive, Martin Shkreli. The move by Imprimis is in direct response to those events, and the company said it plans to produce more cheap alternative drugs. In the news release, the company announced the start of a new program called Imprimis Cares, which will ensure affordable versions of the 7,800 generic FDA-approved drugs.

Well mine's working fine.
Maybe you should update your app if it isn't updated.

lekjons:
haven't u save anything there? i mean games/apps/videos/songs e.t.c.

cos, me too, i saw some memory cards on jumia for as low as 1000-1400(32gb).

i was thinking it may be a scam.

I've saved some stuff in it, I've checked the capacity and it's actually 32gb.
So make of that hat you will.

lekjons:
and does it work work well?

I don't know o, I just got it the day before yesterday, we shall see.

Jumia has a return policy, return it.

No need for too much talk.

I bought a 32gb sd card on Jumia for 1500, one of those cheap Advanced™ sdcards.
