Food / Re: The Food You Can't Give Up Eating. (pictures) by Lordswazz(m): 9:21am On May 20
immortalcrown:
I have the habit of choosing food based on nutritional values, not based on taste or appearance. For this reason, I don't consume more than five bottles of carbonated drinks in a year. And I don't take alcohol.

If it is according to taste or appearance, I will eat noodles or Egusi soup every day. But I seriously avoid the two. I avoid Egusi because of oil and avoid noodles because it is not absolutely natural.

This habit of mine does not guarantee long life but can prevent or alleviate some health challenges.

Bro, abeg, which kind foods you come dey chop for this obodo naija we dey wey everything be like e carry one "not safe for consumption" ingredient? Help me navigate it because i'm also trying to eat according to a food's nutritional value but i'm short of ideas. Thanks man!

Everyone will be successful, e just get levels, there is no one GOD Almighty hasn't done well for.

Even the begotten son of God Almighty, Jesus, said, "The poor will always be with you." Now I know you want to be hopeful and it's good, but NOT EVERYONE WILL BE SUCCESSFUL. The only prayer you should have on your lips every day is to not be among the "poor" Jesus was referring to, and then back it up with hard work and zeal.

You are the one that don't know what you are saying.

Export isn't limited to manufacture goods, it can be services, mineral resources like crude oil or tourism, anything that generate forex for the country.

You think export is only limited to manufacture of goods ? it doesn't have to be manufactured goods, it can be mineral resources like crude oil, gold etc or tourism and entertainment it can be services like engineering and constructions, do you know how much China make from contructing trains, roads, bridges etc in other countries every year ?

Do you know how much forex Saudi Arabia and Isreal generate from religious tourism every year ? that alone can compete with Nigeria revenue from crude Oil

Do you know how much forex USA make from Hollywood music and Hip hop every year? that alone can buy Nigeria several times over.




My Brother, you're teaching basic economics to laymen that think themselves some sophisticated scholars! They will never see your point of view because most of them have been programmed to think that only appointment decisions or fiscal policies drive an unproductive nation's economic fortunes upwards.

There is no two ways about it — compete or die! Black nations make up some of the most uncompetitive and unproductive nations on earth. Throw in a population of over 100 million, and the unproductivity becomes even more catastrophic!

That the successive governments of Obasanjo, Yar'Adua, Johnathan and Buhari subsidized the dollar and petrol so that it was cheap and fluctuated very little doesn't mean that the country was great then. They were just hiding the problems with makeup. Nigeria has been unproductive and poor for eons!

Crime / Re: Can A Woman Actually Rape A Man? by Lordswazz(m): 2:10pm On Apr 09, 2022
LilMissFavvy:
The question says "can a woman rape a man"? The question did not say "can a woman rape a boy". I agree with you that a woman can rape a boy.

Rapists frequently target people they believe they can physically dominate. The only reason female rapists can not rape men (even if they have a sick desire to do so) is that men are physically stronger than women in general. As a result, female-to-male rape is typically limited to male minors, whom they can easily overpower or coerce.

Ask male minors how many of them have been forced into non-consensual sex by adult females and you will be shocked. Male rapists can rape an adult female because they can overpower her, while female rapists can only resort to overt seduction when targeting an adult male, because they can rarely overpower him. However, when it comes to boys, they can easily overpower or fool them, so they deal mostly in that category.

It's the law of nature. Bullies and oppressors target the weak. Male rapists can rape females and children because they're generally stronger than they are, while female rapists deal mostly with children.

Foreign Affairs / Re: American Journalist Exposes The Truth About Ukraine. by Lordswazz(m): 3:59am On Mar 19, 2022
Just as I've always thought. The world is being lied to on a scale that is bigger than anything ever seen in history. There is so much misinformation about Ukraine, and trying to brand a puppet like Volodymyr Zelensky who takes orders directly from foreign governments as a hero is just mind-boggling.

To make matters worse, you now ban the few Russian-based news corporations trying unsuccessfully to balance the narrative from the Western gangup, calling their broadcasts "propaganda." Meanwhile, you're the true kings of propaganda. To be honest, global politics is just a mess.

Foreign Affairs / Re: NATO Is Avoiding War With Russia For Your Sake by Lordswazz(m): 8:00pm On Mar 16, 2022
They're actually avoiding a direct confrontation and war with Russia for the sake of THEIR citizens first and foremost. It just so happens that what is good for their citizens also benefits smaller and less powerful countries.

Russia and the key NATO powers have nuclear weapons pointing DIRECTLY at each other. The effect will, of course, spill to every corner of the globe, but they will be the first casualties.

I strongly believe if the nukes had no way to hit no NATO country, they would have intervened. It is them also being casualties of the nuclear fallout that may occur that is holding them back, not because they just loooove Africans, Asians, and humanity so much.

Both are good skills to acquire and nurture. However, I would recommend you choose content writing and KDP self-publishing. You don’t need to be a sage or have a wild imagination to make a living with content writing. Focus on non-fiction writing, where you can write “how-to” books. Provided you do good research before writing on a topic, you’ll be fine.

Additionally, you can offer your content writing skills for hire on Fiverr and Upwork. If you’re exceptionally gifted at multitasking, you can pair the content writing with the auto-repair training, where you learn auto repair during the day and write at night. However, nothing brings good results or turns fortunes for the better as fast as focus. Good luck!

Education / Re: Why Has The U.S Not Bombed Or Attacked West Africans? by Lordswazz(m): 8:20pm On Mar 04, 2022
gistmega:
With the increased invasion of countries in the asian continent, why has western African escaped any sort of physical invasions like Yemen, Syria, Libya etc?

They or their Western allies don't need to invade. Western countries are already in control of the only thing of value West Africa has - precious metals and oil.

Royal Dutch Shell, Chevron, Total, etc. are the major drillers of Nigerian oil, and it is only the number of barrels they declare that they shipped to NNPC and the Nigerian Government that they consider official. Good old corruption can make any oversight function by NNPC or FG to verify these data useless. Also, they charge Nigeria over $30 to drill a barrel of oil that other major countries drill for under $5. Hence, why invade such a poor multi-ethnic country that you're already milking in broad daylight and cause more leadership headaches for yourself?

Sierra Leonean diamonds are gotten for cents-to-the-dollar, and everything still ends in Europe and America for cleaning, cutting and polishing to be resold at multiple times the purchase price. Western countries just make sure to distance themselves from the substandard mining process that claims and maims the lives of the locals for some "moral" reasons and then buy them thereafter.

This is the case all across West Africa and other African regions. So, pray tell, if you were in their shoes, why bother to invade?

There is no way you can woo and sweet-talk someone who big organizations like NATO and EU are telling to do otherwise. Why do you think Ukraine's Zelensky said "They've all abandoned me" when the war first started? It means they were all with him before, telling him to call Russia's bluff and reject negotiation terms before the invasion.

You can only woo and sweet-talk reasonable men.

Foreign Affairs / Re: China Says The West Should Address Russia's "Legitimate Security Demands" by Lordswazz(m): 3:49pm On Feb 27, 2022
pansophist:
Finally, a country that is making sense.

The US has bombed at least 200 countries compared to Russia but they are termed ''liberation, freedom, fight against evil, defend of democracy''. Because ''you can'' join NATO doesn't mean ''you should'', if not, Iran should not be sanctioned to death because it want to create nuclear weapons.

I don't want to live in a world where the rule that applies to one, is used to punish the other. Sadly, lots of zombies are happy in such kind of world. Only the power of media Russia doesn't have, that is why it seems like everyone is sympathetic to Ukrainians. This is about the survival of Russia as a country, and when it comes to survival, international law can go to hell. You should be alive first, before talking about the law.

One major problem Russia has in terms of media power is language. The West (US, the UK and France specifically) will always have the upper hand in media propaganda due to the widespread adoption of their languages.

The US have benefited immensely from the foundation the British set via colonialism, making sure about 1/4 of the world speaks some form of English. France holds sway in most francofone African countries and others like parts of Belgium and Canada. There is no way you can defeat these people even with the naked truth.

Today, there are people who meet sudden undeserved death. There people sitting at kidnappers den right now, and many more will join by the end of the day. Bad fortune will befall a lot of people today as will Good fortune will also befall a lot of people today.
For the people who already in unfortunate circumstances and those who meet such today, to whom should they be thankful for or apportion responsibility for their fortunes ?
Life is beautiful and dynamic. Some days bring us good fortune, some days bring us bad fortune. If God is to be given glory for our lives and good fortune , so also should God be damned for our bad fortunes and death.

I was debating this with someone. If you're a CEO in a firm and you always want to have ALL THE GLORY because you can't share your glory with any man, then it is only logical that when things go wrong in the company, you should share ALL THE BLAME, except you're an irresponsible leader.

Foreign Affairs / Re: In Pictures: Ukraine On Edge Amid Fears Of A Russian Invasion by Lordswazz(m): 1:25pm On Jan 25, 2022
neuf:


egbon at least be accurate when you're making a statement. If Ukraine wants to join NATO because of Russia provocation and meddling, isn't that a dream scenario for an organisation whose aim is to stop USSR reformation?
which one is US should not have plan as if it's the US that's telling Russia to harass her neighbours and be forming domino

There was no report of Russian bullying until EU, under the guise of "Economic help" offered Ukraine a deal to join it in 2013 which the then-president of Ukraine rejected (he has a right to do that).
Remember that at this time, the Greek economy, a member of the EU, was in turmoil and nobody been really send them because they weren't of any "strategic" importance.

If you look at the world map and see how close Ukraine is to Russia, you'll know why NATO and EU dey die to bring them into their fold. That way, as a member state, they can place any kind of weaponry facing Russia and then Russia is in soup if it goes against any of their interest.

Russia's annexing of Crimea (which they gave to Ukraine in the first place) was a "protection of sovereignty" move rather than a bullying move. By the time the Ukrainian "revolution" toppled the democratically-elected Ukrainian president largely using the Western press influence, the guy that was going to come next would've been a puppet to the West, agreeing to their every conditions.

I'm not saying Russia is good, no. They're just as dark as the people they fight if not darker. All I'm saying is international politics usually isn't how it seems or it's reported. US and EU want to surround Russia at EVERY cost with allies and military bases/long-range hardware.

Education / Re: Mum Arrested For Impersonating Daughter In Bar Resit Exam by Lordswazz(m): 2:49pm On Dec 22, 2021
Maxwell0771p:
A mother (name withheld) has been arrested in the Lagos campus of Nigerian Law School (NLS) for impersonating her 22 years old daughter in a resit Bar examination. A source in the NLS told YeyeNews.com that the invigilators became suspicious of the mother after she was observed to be constantly adjusting a facemask into her face even as she was sweating profusely.


“Sweat was flowing freely down from her head during the examination but she kept holding the mask firmly against her face. That was when the invigilators suspected something is not right. After thorough check it was established that she was an impersonator. Further interrogation revealed that she was impersonating her daughter who had failed the examination the previous year”.


YeyeNews.com was not able to speak with the arrested mother as the police insisted on interrogating her first before she could be allowed to speak with any journalist. But her daughter told YeyeNews.com reporter that she wasn’t aware of her mum’s plan to impersonate her in the exam. “Though, I told my mum I wouldn’t be going for the exam because I would be attending an audition for a movie role, I never asked her to go and impersonate me. Besides, what does she intend to write? She didn’t study Law at school. I don’t even know how she managed to beat the security and gained access to the hall. This is scandalous”.

Imagine the lie this one is telling! You deliberately want to miss something as important as your bar exams because of an audition that you‘re not even sure if you're going to get the movie role.

It's either she was scared she might fail again, hence the alternative arrangement with her mum, or she was pressured into studying law from the onset, and she kuku vex leave the ”difficult” exam for the people wey pressure her into am to chase her “real” passion.

Ovaltine:
Your DIY mentality is commendable.
I am sure it wasn't as simple as red to red or black to black but you still nailed it.

The wiring can be neater.
I suppose you ran a continuity test on the whole system and you separated your heavy load via wiring as well. You don't want a visitor to mistakenly plug a 2500w steam iron into your unit.

Oh. I see there is a socket. Does this mean an extension is sending power to your appliances?

I recently did a 3kva 24v PSW Beaver, 2x 200ah 12v Gel Ritar , 2x 300w mono installation.

I had to pay the optional installation fee despite my strong background in electricals. Its just easier to pay experts these days.

Please do you have an idea how someone can know the battery charge level for a solar system like this? Because, unlike our smartphone batteries that you can know the charge level (in percentage) from the phone's screen, these big Gel or tubular batteries have no digital display showing battery charge level, so there's always a risk of overcharging or consuming the battery power beyond the safe minimum threshold.

So, if there's a means of knowing the estimated charge level that you can share, it would be helpful. Thanks!

Total cost:

Battery : 85k
Solar panel : 30k
Inverter : 35k

Total: 150,000 naira.

I bought wires 2k

Making 152,000.

My observations so far
It takes 5 to 8 hours of sunshine to charge the battery from 0 to 100% depending on the sunlight intensity.

And guess what guys. When all the house load are on it, it lasted me up to 8 hours to use up a single charge. But when I put of the fridge, the 45watt fan and when my laptop isn't in use, it takes more than 12 hours and that's exactly what I needed.

Burning 8 to 12 hours on petrol daily will send me back to my village.


Thanks for coming to my Ted talk cheesy
