PhonesRe: I Phone 4 Vs Samsung Galaxy S ( Ios Vs Android) by Maximip(m): 10:11pm On Oct 15, 2010
The samsung galaxy s is really great compared to the iphone. There's nothing the iphone can do that the samsung
galaxy s can't do. It also does more and is cheaper.

Nollywood or Not. The video gives a true representation of what they are like

Ruq:

Can they stand armored tanks or an air raid. They are even located away from people
which makes it very easy.

They are just very lucky they have GEJ as president.

Who gives 2 f*cks, I would simply take the money i have,my family and get the f outta here, Thats what the politicians who are the only ones having fun in this "country" would do too.
That is the best thing to do for those who can pull if off. like someone said earlier. All this mess is going to end BADLY. They should have been
crushed from the start. And even to the point it has advanced to, nobody is thinking about crushing them.

The honest truth here is that nobody is fighting for anybody, Everybody is fighting for themselves. Even MEND, they claim no light, no schools, but thats not what they are after. They are just exploiting the weak government to make money for themselves.

Nobody can claim to be fighting for the people when the victims of their terror are innocent people.
PoliticsRe: Is Nigeria Better Off Without Jonathan? by Maximip(m): 10:43pm On Oct 06, 2010
That depends on who takes over from GEJ but I think
he won't do too well as president.

Under him, Nigeria's development will be slow if any and security will
be very poor. ie the rise of more terrorists and militancy groups which are
likely to reduce under IBB.

Then again, I think IBB has evil intentions. If he had apologized for his evil deeds
to this country, I'll probably support him.

You guys are not alone. I've downloaded Unity 3d from the start. I'm just waiting for another phase of the project
since graphics, modelling , textures and animation is not my thing. I'll just end up wasting my time achieving nothing.

I understand the concept of 3d so when it's time for scripts and the artwork are in place, I'll be more involved.

"Country like Nigeria." What exactly does that mean? Is the country full of chimps?
I hate hearing such sweeping statements.
You are thinking too far.

Then I'll assume you think any random person from your local market can successfully lead the country.

I totally agree with you.

Nothing will change unless we do something. why don't we just kill all politicians above 40 years old. If people

Christianity EtcRe: Churches Now Business Centres ! Why ? ? ? (pic's) by Maximip(m): 10:43pm On Aug 16, 2010
True,

If all churches were true, our environment and people should have been transformed cos we love church.
These days, people fight in church car parks right after a service.

Actually, the pictures don't prove anything but I find them interesting.

That is if they even noticed u've dumped the network, especially the N100 users.
It seems you're affiliated to them somehow.

I didn't dump them for "Them", I dumped them for "Me".

So it not my business if they notice it or not.
PhonesRe: Mtn Is The Most Useless Organisation In Nigeria? by Maximip(m): 12:07am On Aug 06, 2010
Anyhow I look at it, MTN is still the most expensive network to be on in Nigeria.

But because of our follow-follow syndrome, they are still the most used.

Dumped the thieves a long time ago.
Science/TechnologyRe: The Great Tech Debate: Why Hi-tech Is Way Behind In Nigeria by Maximip(m): 3:06am On Aug 04, 2010
I cannot deny that video games helped me in developing some basic computer instincts like navigating menus and

editing settings. I'll also like to add that it's very important to start early when there's a better chance of still having

that interest to learn. Any child who has had some fun with video games will never be overwhelmed by most phones,

ATMs, POS, VCR, Home theatre, etc. But Nigeria has to take some blame too. Can you imagine a University graduate that

has not touched a computer before? even computer science graduates,  Makes me angry already.

I need to contest for Governor in my state.

Every project has a time schedule. I suggest you should draw one up for this project so you can measure progress and ensure the
project gets completed.

as for me, i havent watched it yet because the trailer made me think it was a very dull movie. might give it a try someday.
Yeah, thanks for the correction. You should see it. It's like a comedy/action movie

obinna5000:
All the movies I've been watching this year has not been impressive. They have just been OK or average.
"KickAss" wasn't so fantastic to me.
Just maybe you've seen too many movies so you're now hard to impress. Maybe watch nollywood
movies for a month, then try it again.

nana:
I think "KickAss" was just there.
Hmmm. You should probably recommend me a movie.

WebmastersRe: Re: Uploading Joomla Thru Filezzila by Maximip(m): 8:44pm On Jul 09, 2010
Yes! you have to upload all the site folders and it takes a while cos of internet speeds

If you want to avoid uploading that much, you can install it from your webhost. some webhost
have functions for you to install joomla from your panel. That way, you'll only need to upload
your template, database and change a few configurations.

If you must upload, it might help to disable the timeout limit on filezilla.

@ Gameaddict, Worldbest

I'll still stick to a much more simpler game, maybe 3D-like 2D if you've ever seen Abe's oddessy on PS1. That type of
graphics but a much much more simpler game like Plant vs Zombie. Maybe initially just to prove your concepts of what
you think you know and a much smaller team like 2 programmer, 2 graphic artist and 1 sound.

what do you think?

@Poster,

There are a million ways to tell someone you like them without saying it. That way if you change
your mind, you can just tell her that she misread the signals. But since you'd gone too
far already, just tell her what you think anyway. Exactly how you said it here.

She'll hate you right away but in the long run, she'll remember you as one of the very few people
who told her the truth. What she was lacking that you couldn't live without.

Who knows, she might just do a rebranding of herself on facebook to reflect more of her real self.

I wonder what I was doing when people were watching movies

Just what I think is the right path at this stage, forget 3d and stick to 2d. Not even side scrollers but fixed screen puzzle like bejewelled, chuzzle,

peggle, zuma, etc.

That way the graphics and programming is simpler.

You need Visual studio to use XNA and know either C# or C++ for windows apps

I'm currently searching for movies that will make me cry. I watch some movies and they look

like they are going to make me cry and I try to feel the situation and force myself to cry. Sometimes

a get a watery eye but I want one that'll make me cry without trying. I found some suggestions googling

but figured out I just might get better suggestions from Nairaland

Just for the record, I don't like BB either.

It's not about the phone but about what we
have turned it into.

And we all know following the crowd sucks.

People who have not finished exploring NOKIA 3310 also
want to get a BB.

@sweet_pawn,
@gameaddict

Ok!

I went to the comandplay.tk website, downloaded the only game on it and my antivirus caught two viruses while i was extracting. Good Start.

I have been programming for a while now wrote about 3 simple MS Dos games (a card game, ping pong and top view racer - more like "left and right") just to learn C/C++. I even created a first person 2D shooter in powerpoint/visual basic and the problem Nigerians will have creating
games is this.


1. Most Nigerians acquire the ability to create games when they are much older and there are too many important things (that will fetch guaranteed money) to create than games.

2. And we all know Black people like money (esp. Nigerians), we don't mind doing a very very boring and unintelligent job provided it brings in money.

The last time I wanted to create a game, I gave up due to lack of a game design and game graphics. I just want to program and not have to worry about anything else.

When ever anyone has a game design and some graphics to work with, I'm down and my weapon of choice is C# and the XNA framework.

Hope this wasn't too pessimistic
