you sir, have saved me from typing a ton!!!
INDUSTRIALFAN:
pls stop it.. what do you mean by placing a Benz with a Hyundai? Pls they re in two different classes of their own and the C300 you used is still to me one if the under powered ones... If I'm to use a Benz that'd satisfy me in all ramifications, I'd start with a 350 of any of the classes.

The other cars you mentioned are in a class of their own entirely while a Benz is in its own lane with the likes of Audi, BMW, VW depending in the classes. Don't also forget that Mercedes has a class for every class of car out there be it Rolls Royce, Ferrari or what have you in the embodiment of Maybach to be in par with Rolls or easily compared, Mercedes GTS to easily be compared with Ferraris, and other super cars, and A, B, C, E and a few other classes to be on par with other cars in almost same league with them. There is a lot about Mercedes that you do not know but let's stop here...

I know you'd want to lash back for saying Maybach can be compared to a Rolls Royce but I'll tell you this, a rolls is just too much hype and self glorification... Tear both the Rolls-Royce and the Maybach down piece by piece and you'll see how alike they are..

OK bye...

Donald3d:
Una don come with una usual rant again
Seun is a very very smart guy, but you guys fail to see it .

1. Less fancy design == faster site loads

2.Nigerians don't have the fast internet like those countries and sites you keep comparing with, you might have fast internet and a fancy expensive phone.But whether you believe it or not, there are still some Nigerians who use Symbian and other 2G phones .

3.Understanding your market is key to shaping a product and he has done that perfectly well, that's why you are even here, if you don't love something you won't care enough to complain about it(just like you are doing now). So you love Nairaland, it was good enough to pull you in, that's why you are here . grin grin

4.Why do you think most sites and apps are building lite versions ?. Because of Africa !!. Nairaland is "lite" already.

5.Whats the point of a fancy design, when most of your users have to spend 30 seconds loading a page, should I remind you how frustrating Nigerian networks are ?.When my internet is misbehaving and I am not sure if my data is exhausted or its just network issue, I load Nairaland, when other sites don't load, it loads

6.As a developer, when I am optimizing the speed of a site I build for clients guess what I use as a template for comparison ?. Nairaland !!!

7.In conclusion, sometimes its not how fancy it looks that matter(Go and see how ugly looking banking softwares are, especially Zenith Bank). When building a product, study your environment, assess your end users and build what works for MOST of them.

Peace

Politics / Re: Pls Who Knows How Much NEPA Charge Customers Per Appliances Used? by orbgoblin: 9:11am On Oct 26, 2018
phcn charges 21.3 naira for one kilowatt per hour. you need to know the wattage of an appliance to be able to calculate costs. so let's use a simple example of our popular 100 watts yellow bulb. if you have 5 of those bulbs running for 10 hours a day,it means you have 500 watts running for 10hours that will be 500watts multiplied by 10 hours then divide the answer you get by 1000. 500 * 10 = 5000. divide answer by 1000 you get 5kwh now multiply that 5kwh by the 21.3 naira I mentioned earlier and that's 106.5 naira to run 500 watts bulb for 10 hours. In case the explanation isn't clear, the formula is
Watt X hours divided by 1000 then multiply your answer by 21.3 naira. to find wattage of your appliances eg your TV just look for the sticker behind the TV or any appliance and you'll see the wattage printed on it.

you must not have used airtel. they put the "IEF" in "THIEF". I'll advice you switch to 2g whenever you're on the move or not using your phone. u could have background apps draining your data. I use mtn on my iphone and it lasts the entire month with extra to spare. but airtel on my blackberry which only lasts about 4 days no matter how hard I try to limit their thievery.

it's called impulse interference. check ur decoder cabling to be sure it's screwed in properly. normally there isn't much you can do about it. but checking your cable is usually helpful.

Agriculture / Re: How can I fast-ripen my Tomatoe plantation at once, Help! by orbgoblin: 7:06pm On Jun 24, 2018
Thanks a lot, your answer is as clear as glass.
fluentinfor:


Your question is very difficult to answer. One farmer get 3 tons on 15 plots (1 hectare), and another gets over 100 tons. Same applies to a plot.

Anyway, I have a procedure for 3 to 6 tons on a plot over a period of 6 to 10 months. It is a program for farmers who want sell directly to customers and not those targetting a particular time to sell. And the targetted price is N300 to N700 per kg. Marketing is very important.

We combine it with capsicum which is produced in a nethouse, and just a small open field section for habanero and chill too.

Open field: tomato, habanero and chilli
Nethouse: capsicum
We use about 3 plots of land (max).

I hope I have answered your question.
Agriculture / Re: How can I fast-ripen my Tomatoe plantation at once, Help! by orbgoblin: 6:20pm On Jun 24, 2018
I get what you mean and it really does hurt when people cut corners, but I'd just like to have an idea of how much one can make from a plot of land used for tomato farming. look through your posts to see if I can get an answer from them.
fluentinfor:


I have written so much about it. Tomato is hot cake, not even only during this seadon if you know you make a deep research. However, many people do it wrongly. When you wirk with me, I provide about minimum of three sales options. Honestly, people cut corners these days. And many are reading to cut corners. I know because of feedbacks I get. And it crushes my heart.
Agriculture / Re: How can I fast-ripen my Tomatoe plantation at once, Help! by orbgoblin: 1:37pm On Jun 24, 2018
how much tomato in naira can you get from say a plot of land. 60x120 feet? and oh nice write up by fluentinfor. was hoping someone would discourage the use of carbide for ripening.
