Family › Re: Why I Chose To Distance Myself From A Sibling by Offpoint1: 8:02am On Apr 01, 2023 |
CosmicDust: Here is my story....
I have a 3 siblings and I am at odds with my eldest who is a lady. The way it is, I may never have a conversation with her again.
She was the first person to be invested in by my parents after which I came. Luckily enough, she was able to strike gold in her career and do well for herself. She went abroad for her masters with my parents supporting with half-payment. Unfortunately, whenever it came to family demands and helping the other younger siblings, she has either been negligent or grudgingly does so.
Few years after going abroad, she decided to lockup and sends only 40k home which is supposed to cater for food for a month. Now parents are retired, the whole family weight falls on my following sibling and I. The youngest one education is on me. Happy she will finish soon. Parents need to be supported in challenging times, one is coping with diabetes and the other is with some challenging issues I can't say here. Their savings are being sapped by their needs to keep living on.
But my so-called elder sister based in Canada despite knowing their condition is silent. She still sends her peanuts, while I and my younger brother who is an upcoming fashion designer do 2X what she does. This aches our parents and sometimes makes our mother cry and our father rant with regret.
A time now came, our mum got admitted in the hospital. Condition was so salient that she had to be hospitalized for weeks. Hospital bill was 450k. The Canada-based first born doing a good job, who was always talking to her, praying with her on phone, etc only sent 100k. We the others did the rest. Glad mum is back at home but her heart is broken and has refused to talk with her. She's been in Canada for 5 years and has refused to even support any of her siblings to come abroad too. My other siblings say because we all refuse to be dictated to by her is the reason for her behaviour. I don't care. Mine is that if you know that you are going to be useless to a family, let your parents know before hand so the money used in training/feeding you can be used for farming business which will despite bad weather bring returns than on a child who feels is not obligated to support the parents who supported you all through. See entitled mentality in the fullest, she owns non of you shxt. She has contributed her quarter, money don't grow on trees anywhere in the world. |

.... Today's making a week I got the 10 Pro at 118,900.
So far the only thing I'm not satisfied with is the Battery, on lite use (WIFI) it lasted just 19 hours, I expected longer time. When I got 5 Pro for my sister 2 years ago, on lite use battery can go for 24hrs+
I'm yet to installed heavy software and games... Aside from that, it's dawn ok for the price.
This is my first time of getting tecno for myself, I'm Samsung fan... The 10 pro spec was tempting, I need that 256 ROM badly. I'm not a Cam fan, but I'm impress with the cam.

arcadezone: I have been following this course on React by colt steele on udemy and I went ahead to purchase it and so far it has been worth the money paid. My problem now is that udemy does have the option to download courses that you have paid for and watch later without an internet connection. This is really a problem because the network connection where I live is really slow, hence I would like to download it to my hard drive and play directly in order not to be restricted to watching the course only at night when the speed of the connection is at its best.

Family › Re: Should I Allow My Mother-in-law In Our Home? I Need Advice by Offpoint1: 6:15am On Mar 30, 2023 |
Neweramify: Op your wife was wrong, but try and understand her fear. Most women feel inconvenient around their mother inlaw. Not because she hates her mother inlaw but for the fear of the unknown.
Let her know how you feel knowing she wanna bring her mum in when she rejected your mum. I'm sure she will feel remorse of her action.
Permit her to bring her mum, cause if anything happen to the old woman, she may accuse you of one thing or the other. You women are so cunny, look at this emotional blackmail comment you're making. If it was the other way round, you wouldn't be singing this song. |

Politics › Re: Kaduna State Held LG Polls In 2018 And In 2021 Using Electronic Voting Machines by Offpoint1: 9:09am On Mar 21, 2023 |
FOLYKAZE: Electronic Voting on national level cannot be compared with local election within a state. Reason is that this electronics have more than 500000 ways of manipulating it. Believe you mean, the memory slot where the votes are store can be manually changed, hacked or destroyed remotely. Moreso, results can be intercepted during transmission. There are tons of loopholes desperate politicians can exploit to manipulate results. The Government might also collude with INEC to pre-programmed to favor a candidate.
Judging from the attacks on irev portal in the recent president election, report has it that there was more than 10000000 attacks on a single day. Now factor that big electronic distributed in about 180000 Polling units, imagine the different alterations, disruptions and manipulations that can be deployed to favor a politician?
Oga we need nation reorientation..... Not this big big machine But banking has been going electronically with no issues, we are not ready as a country. |
