The robot collapsed after reportedly working for over 20 hours. This goes to show that robots have their moments too, just like humans. As we see in this video during a demonstration at a supply chain exhibition in Chicago, the robot was working well, and everything else was going smoothly until the robot was seen collapsing. Digit was designed by Agility Robotics to work in warehouses, lifting boxes and performing other tasks.

The moral of this story: everything reacts to stress. Proper maintenance and routine check-ups are necessary to keep anything working effectively.

I took my time to type a reasonable message to you and all of a sudden you are sending VN to me, do you know if I am in an appropriate place to listen to your frog voice and respond? It just seem selfish and unreasonable.

I normally let the person know about the inappropriateness, but if the person continues; I reply whenever I can.

Get out of here! you dont know anything. You are just forming serious when you are nothing but an ignorant fool. Voice note is a nice feature and has many applications. Even though my mother can read and write, she has difficulty in typing and her eyesight is not very great. Voice note comes very handy for her to communicate effectively. Dont always rush to condemn things with your nacissistic short sightedness.

is this a joke?

Great to hear... Kudos to the gallant soldiers and troops.


However, why is there no similar news about the North and Middle Belt that have become overrun by terrorists??!

Over 200 kids are currently in the den of terrorists (who y'all re-christened Bandits) in Kaduna.

Even for terror war this lowlife will bring ethnic sentiment. He's like if you kill my terrorist, you'll have to kill a northern one or else, leave my terrorist alone.

This is by no means novel because TECNO and copy copy na 5&6. They probably bought the robot and slapped their logo on it to make their african customers feel good about their low budget tecno phones.

A contract involve offer acceptance and consideration. Once all the three are in place, a contract becomes valid and enforceable. In your case, there was offer, acceptance and consideration (payment). I am sorry for your situation here, but your neighbour has an upper hand here based on your submission and you have no basis to rescind the contract. Written document is not needed once these facts have been established as contract can be deemed to be valid by word of mouth and actions. Any lawyer would tell you that the car belongs to your neighour and you are duty bound to deliver it. Your neighbour resolve to violence however is needless because the car is his lawful property under the law.

Side chicks are becoming a national security concern. DSS should do something about it.

My dad's driver son is right here in our house and he's the first child of his dad, he's totally different from the rest, he doesn't look like his dad neither does he look like his mum, there's no resemblance from both parents at all.

I stylishly dig up stories of how his mum was married because he's been driving my dad even before I was born and I was told she was already pregnant before the marriage ceremony was held and as at that time of their wedding, the woman lived in a different state, she just came and told him she was pregnant and that was how marriage happened .

I have watched this boy from head to toe so I can see at least one feature in resemblance but I didn't see anything, not even from the mom, he's just totally different. The other kids are ok, two share a striking resemblance with their dad while the last took after her mom but with some of the dad features, so are you thinking what I'm thinking?

Should I tell my dad my observation? What do you think?

Be sure he doesn't look like you before you start digging

No gree for anybody. I must Jakpa this year.

Hello house, @duchesss and other visa gurus,
I have employed the services of the International Office to chase up my visa application with UKVI. Even though they've not be successful, I got an insight from the response they get on what could be delaying my visa decision, please see attached. I know I don't have problem with financial verification but if UKVI conducts verification on degree certificates, I have a real concern with my school responding to their query in time and could well be what is delaying my visa. The question is does UKVI actually verify degree certificates issued in Nigeria?

killemslim:
Really wish there was a more active way to reach out to these UKVI people and get results as quick. My Sist has been going through a lot mentally just waiting since 10th August. It’s really unfair considering the financial investment and all put into this process. Two paid calls and one escalation yet nothing but 3 NSF mails.I understand the applications they’ve received recently must be overwhelming but they’re making hell of funds, enough to match up in man power. Praying and wishing the best for everyone going through similar ordeal. Be encouraged and stay blessed.

its like something is really wrong with the 10th August applications.

Big congratulations and best of luck in your studies! I am immediately drawn to anyone with a biometric date of 10th August. Could you shed more light on how you responded to paid mail. You sounded as if you waited for a response from your paid mail before you went ahead and state your case. Why did not you just state your case upfront when you were sending the paid mail.

Congratulations! I also did my biometrics on 10th August. Since receipt of empty nsf on 22nd August, its graveyard silence.

Yaya88:


Trust me your circumstance is no where near mine. Four month and 3 days later.. Your application is just 4 weeks. If you search the thread for visa delay, you will see my timeline. Mind you it's depressing.

Four months wait for a student visa? Has you programme started? I thought one can only apply three months to resumption.

Yaya88:


Hello everyone,
I called on Monday and I was informed a decision had been made , so I'd like to know how long it takes for the Embassy to send a decision letter or for it to move to VAC.
Thank you!

Hello, from the comments here, I think my application is going the direction of yours. I would love to see your timelines to draw strength from. Since 10th August when I had my biometric and 22nd when I got nsf mail, I have not heard from them apart from standard responses for my paid emails and calls that no decision has been made.

Scot2324:
Visa Alert!

Alhamdulillah!

You know the drill, don't be stingy. Congrats, though.

We are in the same shoe bro. My biocapture date is 10th August. I really don't know what to do.

Biometric since 10th August. Still stuck at DMC. Program already started on 4th September. I did paid emails and calls but still getting told no decision has been reached. I feel sick and frustrated.

"Pretty" is the most abused word on Nairaland.

I am looking for anyone interested in flatshare for anyone going to the University of Exeter.

I am the main and only applicant.
Standard visa.
I had biometric on August 10.
Empty NSF on August 22.
Paid enquiry on September 4.
Now being told escalation takes 15 working days.
Meanwhile, program started September 4.
Any hope for me? Any suggestion on what to do, please?

And I’m willing to invest 10m naira into the project

i am right now e-seizing you by the collar and vigorously shaking you. Go to Canada. I said go to Canada. Did you hear me? Go to Canada. Just what part of go to Canada are you not understanding? Poultry industry in Nigeria right now is a shambles. Huge, huge starting cost and very low return due to cost of feed and relatively low cost of eggs and low demand. Don't even let me start on broiler production; that one is death trap. All in all, Sunk nearly 10m and no break-even point in sight let alone making profit. I am even one of the luckiest as no outbreak has been recorded so far in my farm. GO TO CANADA!

Sokoto should not be there. We have seen rainfall only two ot three times this year. Right now, common rain we have not seen let alone flood and our crops are drying up.

Depending on the diet of cockroach, it can be harmful or harmless. If it is a toilet roach, you can be sure that you have eaten a seriously fermented cooked human dung. March on any toilet roach and sniff it.

It'll surprise you to know that so many guys love cereals like golden morn.
I can't get over the mushiness. 😖

same reason i hate oat! The are a gooey mess.

It is already criminal. Our lawmakers are intellectual retards. F**king couch potatoes.

silvoclaira:
If these men in the photos can go after criminals in their locality same energy they used on the snake, their area will be free from crime... Those guys in the photo are the one eating those chickens and blaming it on the innocent snake... Open that mans stomach if we will not see chicken meat in his stomach... Smh

what the snake did is not criminal again? Three whole chicken, Chai!!!

Corruption resides in Nigeria

And that can never change...

And Nigeria will continue to house the world's poorest

Until we eshew Tribalism and religious bigotry in electing those that will pilot the affairs of this country..

As we speak, that are people on this forum, hungry and unemployed, defending APc , Buhari's administration all on the alter of religious affiliation and tribalism

And I say to Nigerians.. fasten your seatbelts..
The mother of all hardships is on the horizon.
Herdsmen and Bandits will run your villages..
many will beg for water to drink as hunger strikes.
Benin republic will be deport Nigerians..
Naira will be a tissue paper..
Many west African countries has steady power right now.. but not Nigeria, even in next 20 years.

I'm not a prophet of doom, as some of these events are already in motion..
Only shall we behold and see the reward of the wicked..

I thought we elected Obi?
