Hello nairalanders, I have a budget of 60k and I want a UK used laptop with specs: core i5, 1080p resolution, 8gb ram, 500ssd.

Guy!!!
You can get an i5 (maybe 2nd generation or vPro)
4gb RAM at most (You can upgrade later but it might only increase performance slightly. Go for 4gb and don't run too many programs at once)
512mb - 1gb dedicated graphics maybe
But don't expect 1080p resolution or SSD. The cheapest 500gb SSD is like 35k in Naira. And 1080p screen laptops with the rest of your specs intact start from at least 150k. The truth is there is nothing fantastic about 1080p on laptops. It wastes battery and can even reduce playability in games. You can get an SSD of maybe 60gb as an internal drive for Windows and major programs. Then, your HDD will be connected as external drive

I don't sell laptops but these are your options for that price
Hp Elite book 2170p
Hp Elite book 2570p
Dell Latitude E5430
Hp Elite book 8440p

You can check out shopinverse at Maryland mall cos they sell in bulk and the prices will be cheaper than most Computer Village vendors. And no, I'm not affiliated with them

udemzyudex:
You talk about testing in bios, i was just wondering how he could test all keyboard keys in bios.

Lol. In many BIOS( mostly Insyde sha), they have an option to make sound when keys are pressed. So, if he activates it and those keys do not make sound when pressed, that means it's a hardware problem. At least, I know that keys Y and N work universally in most BIOS. Hope you grab??

Samfilo31:
The keys were working perfectly well be4 the drivers update, i wonder such problem, am having deficulty booting to safe mode on this win8

Press and hold Shift and click Restart on your startup menu while still holding Shift
Navigate to troubleshoot - advanced settings - startup settings
Choose the right option for safe mode (It's usually 4, so that's F4 or just normal number 4) and wait for it to load up

You can also turn the PC on for like 5 seconds and then turn off with the power button. Repeat the sequence like 3 times, so the PC thinks there is a problem and on the next startup, it will give you the Exit and Continue, Troubleshoot, Power Off options. Follow the remaining steps in the first paragraph

udemzyudex:
You mean to say save mode?

Safe mode also works too. Yeah, he can restart to safe mode
The best bet is to revert Windows back to a time when the keyboard worked(system restore). That's why people should always create a new Windows image before doing something as critical as driver updates. And PCs should be set to backup automatically every week

Samfilo31:
I need help to get tro dis

I use Drivers pack 17 online last night to update my system ( win 8 ) after the update my B and N on my keyboard is not working again

I don't know what might cause dis, though i uninstall de keyboard drivers and scan for hardware changes yet didn't fix it

I need help please, my keyboard was working very well be4 the update

Check if those keys work in BIOS or when typing password. Activate keyboard sound in BIOS and try pressing those keys to see if it will give sounds. Or try it in your password bar. If it works, that means the drivers you installed are affecting the system. Reload Windows to a time when the keyboard was still working. Revert driver changes. It should work. If it doesn't, then it is a hardware problem. Hardware problems can occur in the blink of an eye

dangoteinlaw:
I would rather stay one room in Lagos than a 3bedroom flat in that shithole lmao

Guy, Lagos is truly a shithole. You think Lagos has roads? Go to Ibadan. Transportation? Cheap as anything. Foodstuffs? Cheap. Modern city? Definitely! You think you will see wastes up and down piling at a corner like you see in Lagos? Maybe, but very rare (It could be a mad man's prized possessions ).
The only thing about Lagos is the jobs. I know many people who work in Lagos and live in Ibadan. They go home on weekends. So, forget the hype

alBHAGDADI:
Since the law has been discarded, according to your like, isn't it absurd to you that Apostle Paul and others were still clinging to some of it? According to you, the Apostles are cursed for being under portions of the law.

Shouldn't that tell you that they knew that it is not all the law that was done away with? That's why they specifically pointed out that which was no more to be obeyed and were also specific on those to continue with.

Now, what happens to the ones they didn't mention at all? Are we to continue with them or not? We are to continue with them because God nor the Apostles put a stop to them. Any man that attempts to change what God hasn't changed will face the weather of God. Remember Jesus aid not one jot shall pass away...

Lol. Keep deceiving yourself. Paul was obviously making principles different from the Law. Did the Law talk about drunkards and revilers? Or did the Law talk about the Kingdom of God? And I hope you also keep slaves too since the Law states how WORSHIPPERS of God should treat them. I also hope you also carry out the parts of the Law that refers to priests and women
I mention it again that the Old Testament is still relevant, but again, you don't need to adhere to it. In fact, in your case, you don't need to have faith in Jesus and you can fornicate and overdrink and lie and steal, because you are eternally saved. Amen, brother!

alBHAGDADI:
The fact that you do not understand salvation says a lot about your understanding of the Old Testament and its laws.

Sorry, I can't help you.

And you didn't answer the question

elijahkayode:
Funny how Muslims is the only faith that bows down when worshipping God, yet the scriptures point to this

Elders bow down in reverence, yet Christians don't

And the four living creatures kept saying, “Amen.” And the elders fell down and worshiped.
REVELATION 5:14 NASB

At least, they are falling down to worship what they can clearly see. The only true God in front of them. Not kneeling down in one certain direction towards the sun abi moon at a specific time with an object being placed in front of them. That should look suspicious to you already. But anyway, it's your faith and people tend to get sentimental a lot, that's why I won't drag out this conversation. And who told you Christians can't bow down and pray? We just don't need someone to tell us when or how to do it. Peace

alBHAGDADI:
Since the law has been discarded. make sure you sleep with your mother tonight, and don't use condom.

Many Scriptures in the New Testament admonish us to abstain from sexual immorality. Immorality could be fornication, adultery, bestiality, incest, homosexuality. Besides, it is morally wrong in our society. Believe it or not, the New Testament already has enough principles that can be applied in our daily lives without leaving out the important aspects. For example, Paul in one of his letters mentioned someone who was engaging in immorality with his father's wife. And he put it in a bad light. It's simple logic. Another Scripture in the New Testament says that he who goes on hating his brother is a murderer. You don't need Cain and Abel's example to spell it out for you that hate can lead to murder and that murder is wrong. You don't need Exodus 20 to tell you that you shouldn't murder, steal or worship idols when 1 Corinthians 6 vs 9 and 10 mentions that people who engage in such things cannot inherit the Kingdom of God. It's pretty basic. We are not trying to cancel out the Old Testament because as you have previously mentioned, ALL SCRIPTURE is inspired. The basic point of the Scripture in Galatians is to stop picking specific aspects of the Law to follow, since you choose to follow it. Follow it in its entirety. Don't use it to support tithes and then disapprove of animal sacrifice or excreting wastes in bushes far away from your house

alBHAGDADI:
If you sin while saved, you won't missed heaven. God might only punish you here on Earth, but your eternal security is certain.

A born-again Christian that does Yahoo Yahoo is eternally saved? Even those who sin deliberately? Haven't you come across the Scripture that says he who blasphemes again the Holy Spirit cannot be forgiven? Or where Hebrews 10 vs 26 mentions that there is no sacrifice for sins for those that sin willfully? Please explain how these two instances do not nullify your teaching

And I blame Davido for Aunty Kemi's insanity!

TheFacelessMan:


I was almost killed on the elevator at The Radisson Blu hotel in Lagos back in 2001.

I was whistling "Temptation" by Psquare as i entered the elevator.

A baby elephant was in the lift - sorry, i meant a fat lady who must have weighed 190kg.

I stared uneasily at the weight limit - 700kg for 10 persons. She was occupying space for at least 4!

Just as the doors were about closing, i saw 3 hefty guys dashing to come in.

A chill ran up my spine looking at their hard faces and their dark black skin

My past had finally caught up with me. On behalf of the Nigerian Government, I had assassinated the Ghanaian Minister sabotaging the Abidjan- Lome Corridor in 1999

All 5 of us in the lift. Barely space to manoeuvre. The atmosphere was thick with tension.

I whispered in fat girl's ears "duck"

She looked back with a stupid dumbfounded expression on her face "huh?"

"DUCK" i repeated harshly.

A split second after i smashed the lights in the elevator.....

... and that was when the madness began!

Man, you should be an author of thriller novels. However, I dont know how you were listening to Temptation in 2001 when it came out in 2005

kunkelhanspeter:
If you think stopping Yahoo will make dis country move ahead bro you are waiting your time before yahoo Nigeria politicians
The only way to stop crime is to create jobs

Okay, I have a job for you. The pay is 150k. Just a distance of 10 kilometers from your housem You have to work from 8am to 5pm. Mondays to Fridays. The have to dress corporate and be clean shaven. Drug tests and general medical checkups will be taken at regular intervals.....

Tell me, will you accept this job?

henro4niger:
You ended up writing nothing. What do you mean by both snapdragon and mediatek are based on architecture? Differentiate between the two you're there beating around the bush.

Who said snapdragon utilizes battery better than mediatek? Your Samsung phone and tecno which one dies faster? Get your facts right before you write what you don't know.

Mind you SoC mean system on chip not system on a chip and it means an IC that has complete components of a computer like CPU, input/output,memory etc

Are you comparing a 5,000 mAh battery on Tecno or Infinix phones to a 3,000 mAh battery on Samsung phones? If you want to compare, put two phones of the same battery capacity and test. And watch the phone with an MTK chip overheat and die quickly

crownedrookie:
You didn't complete the statement... Go get a good job... Where?

How many of them over there have good jobs? Some of them work double shifts from morning to night to take care of their bills. After working so hard, one idiot will steal my credit cards and infiltrate my bank logs. Is that justified? There is NO reason to stay idle in Nigeria. People need labourers everyday. People need sales persons. People need factory workers. But lazy youths do not want to work. This is the same work that some people that get scammed do over there. Just that it is more profitable after conversion to naira.

The baseline : Fraud is bad

Corrosiveman:
400 years of slavery...dem never pay finish

Stop fighting wars that are bigger than you. Have you 'dealt' with that your annoying neighbor or your childhood bully, before taking your grievances overseas? Did anyone enslave your direct forefathers? If they were enslaved, you would not be in Nigeria now. The descendants of the people they enslaved are the blacks we have in other countries and they are grateful for the opportunity at a better life. And those same black people face the brunt of these scams. Even here in Nigeria, we are not safe. This year alone, I have lost up to 50k at the hand of scam Bitcoin and PayPal exchangers. What did I do to those ones? Stop justifying scams

AutoReportNG:
Different countries with amazing regulations and laws.

Drivers who fail to wash their cars properly could be hit with expensive fines.

Motorists could be slapped with a staggering fine of up to $450 and lose three demerit points if their licence plates aren't displayed cleanly and clearly.

According to a Facebook post by NSW Police has advised that 'not washing your car properly,' by 'neglecting' cleaning the licence plate could end up costing you.

According to Clause 25 of the Regulation in the NSW Roads and Maritime Services, plates must be 'clear and clean,' and must not be obscured, defaced or otherwise not legible.

You can also get stung for licence plates that are not properly displayed or are hard to read.

In another post by the NSW Police, they state that number plates are not allowed to be hinged.

'They must be securely fixed to prevent them swinging out of sight. $448 + 3 points.'

While the laws and penalties vary in each state, social media users have been quick to criticise the NSW laws on the Facebook post.

Facebook user, Lizzie Maree West, highlighted the implication with water restrictions, saying '... we can't wash ours on level 6 water restrictions...'

That's cool. It will discourage nonsense

By the way, 450 Australian Dollars is about 115,000 naira and not 162,000 naira. 1 Australian dollar is roughly 260 naira, compared to 360 for United States Dollars

He should be locked up!



Sorry I forgot to add "forever"!

one count of offender 18 or over engaging in penetrative sexual activity with a girl aged 13 to 15

How did they measure the "Over" Nau?

Is the man not 18 years of age or over? That is to say an adult molesting a child. Abi na English you no understand?

And they spent 170 billion on election only. Whereas, annual budget is 600billion. Expensive democratic process that will still be rigged
And Nigeria better adopt a two party system. 71 parties without a single fight in them, eating up ballot space

The naira equivalent of what he is accused of is not up to N100,000.

$700 is not up to 100k?

lordtim001: You guys are so funny

Achorladey: Life can be fun at times. You should know on Nairaland, the fun never stops.

lordtim001:You say it's a secret book.

Achorladey: Yes we have said something of that nature but we are only repeating the viewpoint and fact the publishers of the book wrote about the material itself. As it were we informed you about what you don't seem to know about the book.

lordtim001:Fine. But you want to "expose" Witnesses using the same book.

Achorladey: The person you had the discussion with might not have made use of it or referenced it but discussion do unfold and spill over sometimes.

lordtim001: And most times, you post half-truths.

Achorladey: What would you have said had Hairyrapunzel not use the material to make a strong case about what you were both discussing.

lordtim001: Now that I have access to the book to see things for myself and I have shown you the truth of the matter,

Achorladey: Fine.

lordtim001: You are condemning me for having access to the book in the first place.

Achorladey: No one is condemning you for having access to it. It's a freedom you have chose to exercise or perhaps you are not even aware the book is meant for ELDERS ONLY. Why should we comdemn you for what you seem not to be in the KNOW?

lordtim001: By the way, I'm deleting it.

Achorladey: It's your freedom, EXERCISE IT.

I'm aware it's for elders only. I'm not a baby. And the guy quoted from the same book. Is he an elder? Or was he previously serving as an elder? Even if he was, does he not know that he is required to return the book when he is deleted? It's not for elders, but he expects to misinform the general public by saying he was disfellowshipped for saying rape should be a criminal offence? . Most of them will be talking like old men, with firsthand history of the organization meanwhile.....

Well, I won't say too much

Hairyrapunzel:
Buhaha. When I show you David cutting foreskin to use as dowry to Saul and pharaoh killing a whole village as giving it as wedding gift to Solomon and his daughter you say it's bible times while reporting a criminal offence or advising people to report crime you quote a verse out of context.

I am sure Bible didn't say rape or pedophillia.
A criminal offence where there are only 2 people the perpetrator and victim. Yet you need 2 witnesses. Lol

If na Catholic you go say them be false religion for shielding criminals whearas una dey shield criminals. You religion is a false one.

K

Hairyrapunzel:
You people can now bring reproach to Jehovah's name? Lol.

I am talking about pedophilles being shielded by watchtower. Do elders advice people to go to police first? No
Your leaders take matters into their own hands. Stop defending evil.

They cannot advise you to pursue a court case neither can they advise you not to pursue a court case. Galatians 6 vs 5 is applied here

achorladey:
lordtim001 do you know that hairy has a point about this, and it not just hearsay. What follows proves that to be true......

as made clear in Letter to Elders , August 23, 2010, which states:

"The information is designed for use by the elders only, and other individuals should not have any opportunity to read the information."


Sisters are not allowed to even bind it under supervision, as directed in the following quote from the
Letter to Elders , October 7, 2010:

"There is no objection if an elder personally spiral binds or laminates his own textbook or does so for other elders. If he has another baptized brother who is not an elder do the work for him, the elder must watch while the work is being done. Outside companies, unbelievers, or sisters are not permitted to do this work. The material in the book is confidential, and confidentiality must be preserved."


August 23 2010 letters..

We would like to emphasize the importance of keeping these new textbooks secured and confidential, both before and after they are distributed. The textbooks should not be left on tops of desks or in other places where they are easily accessible by family members or other individuals. The information is designed for use by the ELDERS ONLY, and other INDIVIDUALS should not have any OPPORTUNITY to READ the INFORMATION.

That you(lordtim001) have access to it means you have DIFFERING OPINIONS about the book being a SECRET book.

You guys are so funny . You say it's a secret book. Fine. But you want to "expose" Witnesses using the same book. And most times, you post half-truths. Now that I have access to the book to see things for myself and I have shown you the truth of the matter, you are condemning me for having access to the book in the first place
By the way, I'm deleting it ASAP
