PoliticsRe: Obaseki Formally Joins PDP by mikeycharles(m):
This life is just funny, Oshiomole supported Obaseki and he won Edo state, 4 years later they're now enemies and Oshiomole is now supporting his previous rival; Ize-Iyamu who contested against him 4 years ago. Fast forward to June 2020 and Oshiomole is suspended from his own post in APC and now Obaseki who was a fierce APC member is now in PDP; the same party his previous rival; Ize-Iyamu of 4 years back was in.

My head they turn, nobody should disturb me.

Can we also adopt the culture of punishing all these men that perpetrate evil, some girls travel to Italy and become objects of sexual perversion to men but only the girls are punished while we hear nothing about the men that actually commit these crimes.
FamilyRe: Living With My Married Elder Sister by mikeycharles(m):
Greatzeus:
I know how you feel Op,but that feeling is wrong as long as you live under her roof. You feel that you are not her maid so why should you be doing all her work,see girl, humble your self,try to do all she asked of you,you are a woman,you should even enjoy doing chores,if you want to enjoy your stay at her house, please just do as she says.
If you think you can't cope with the work or stress,go back home to your parents. That's the only choice you have if you want to enjoy your stay and want to avoid rancour.
All these because she's a girl, she should be happy to do house chores cause she's a girlhuh . Nawa for Nigerians and sexism, it's good sha.

Science/TechnologyMars: Green Glow Detected On The Red Planet by mikeycharles(op): 2:30pm On Jun 17, 2020
Scientists have identified a green light in the atmosphere of Mars.

A similar glow is sometimes seen by astronauts on the space station when they look to the Earth's limb.

The glow comes from oxygen atoms when they're excited by sunlight.

The phenomenon has long been predicted to occur on other planets, but the Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO) - a joint European-Russian satellite at Mars - is the first to make the observation beyond Earth.

"It's a nice result," said Dr Manish Patel from the UK's Open University.

"You'd never plan a mission to go look for this kind of thing. Today, we have to be very clear about the science we're going to do before we get to Mars. But having got there, we thought, 'well, let's have a look'. And it worked."

To be clear, this is different to classic auroras like the Northern and Southern Lights.

These emissions are the consequence of collisions between atmospheric molecules and charged particles that are racing away from the Sun. On Earth, this type of interaction is heavily influenced by our planet's strong magnetic field, which pulls those particles down on to the poles.

Auroras are not focussed in quite the same way on Mars because this world doesn't have a global magnetic field, but such emissions nonetheless exist and have already been observed.

The green glow seen by astronauts at the edge of the Earth - and now by the TGO at Mars - has a separate origin. It's sunlight that's doing the work. Oxygen atoms are raised to a higher energy level and when they fall back to their resting state, they produce the tell-tale green emission.

Earth has abundant oxygen in its atmosphere. But on Mars it's largely present only as a breakdown product of carbon dioxide. Sunlight will free one of the oxygen atoms in CO2, and it's the transition of this atom that's glowing green on the Red Planet.

The TGO detects the excited oxygen not with an imaging camera (hence no pretty pictures) but with its Nomad spectrometer package. This instrument sees the oxygen at very particular altitudes.

In a paper published in the journal Nature Astronomy, these altitudes are at 80km and 120km above the surface. The precise altitudes are dependent on the pressure of CO2.

"And by looking at the altitudes of where this emission is, you can actually tell the thickness of the atmosphere and how it's varying," explained Dr Patel.

"So, if you were to keep observing this phenomenon, you could see the height of the atmosphere change, something it does for example when it heats up during dust storms. This is an issue we face when we try to land on Mars because we're never quite sure just how thick the atmosphere will be when we plough through it to get to the surface."

Theoretically, therefore, you could use observations of the green glow to help inform the models that guide the entry, descent and landing of Mars probes.

The glow at Mars was detected by the TGO's Nomad instrument, which is led by the Royal Belgian Institute for Space Aeronomy (IASB-BIRA). Dr Patel is the co-principal investigator on Nomad's ultraviolet and visible spectrometer.

KrazyDave16:
@bolded availability and marketing strategy is what these brands have over Nigeria. There's no place you go in Nigeria you don't see it hear their ads. Though in all honesty the strength they put in their ads should be directed to make better devices.
I made a post about Tecno devices only selling because of availability and ease of accessibility but that thread got deleted faster than the spread of COVID-19.

All brands does that as long as it is a budget phones, they can release 4 to 5 phones a year, and xiaomi is reliable cos 3 of my neighbors are using them(note 8pro, Mi 9t)...
Thank you but the truth is some devices are not reliable and it's really not about manhandling, when you see and use inferior and superior you'll know.

But they are good. Like you implied, if your budget is tight you might consider them. However which brand do you suggest aside tecno and xiaomi.?
Yeah they're actually good and I never suggested Tecno/Infinix.
I have reached that point where I can only enjoy devices from reputable brands.

mikeycharles the simple reason why you suddenly dislike xiaomi is the fact that your need is insatiable.
I never liked them and I'm sure I never will but okay.

U got it wrong, u were condemning some brands because they are Chinese phones, it seems u just ve beef with them, but don't just come generalizing them, i have not use any of those phones u are criticizing as my personal phones, but i have personally recommended them, and to me they are far beta than all Samsung budget phones starting frm the Galaxy Aseries and the M series
You want to compare my personal experience to your recommendations? How does that work exactly huh Also I never hated on Chinese devices cause let's be honest most phones are manufactured in China. My issue here is people wanting premium features from budget devices and also folks pushing others to patronise brands that are not reliable and are only focused on making quick bucks by releasing 20209272 different versions of similar devices i.e Tecno and Xiaomi.

Waiting for Xiaomi marketers to flood this post, like as if the only reason that the Xiaomi thread is that long is because it is filled with complaints just like this one.

I think u are a new person in phone, Oppo makes good phones also the same with those phones bands u mentioned, their budget phones are million miles beta than Samsung budget phones, name one Samsung budget phone that is beta than those phone bands you mentioned, by the way am a Samsung galaxy note user
With the way you rushed to type this mess, shows you are already defensive and nothing I'll really say will change your mind in regards to these "Chinese brands" but good luck with that and lastly I wish I was new to phones, do check my post and topics to clear your doubts.

you're just complaining & condemning other products but u couldn't make a single recomendation. Though it's obvious that you'll recomend no more than samsung or iphone.
"My advice is this, if you're sourcing for premium features and peace of mind, do not consider budget devices especially from brands like Xiaomi, umidigi, oppo and the rest of them."
