lezz:Sometimes it serves the arrogant well. |
lezz:It was a total waste of time. |
ollah1: Actually, this is the first question you'd be asking me - one which I'm not motivated to answer. Your little knowledge about phone is crowded by sentiment, false ego and arrogance. These negatives don't constitute a healthy ground for any intellectual take off. Watching your arguments and debates with your earlier persecutors, i noticed you kept shifting the goal post and kept twisting facts. Bye. |
ollah1:Except I stated that iphone7 plus is Apple's first phablet I would have given you a pass mark in your sanity test. But in this case, you need to book an appointment with a behavioural therapist. While you suffer from neuro-cognitive disorder, it is good members of this forum are put on the know so as to save themselves from the ripple effects of your complex paranoia. I thought you were the one caught stealing disses? Add that to your abstract knowledge on phone then you would realise you're one cheap, classless sleazebag without self-respect or integrity. Caught-out thieves should have one last dignity left in their morally compromised marrows -- that is to walk away in shame from their own mess, away from public eye. But you linger still, hiding behind these anonymous walls this platform provides. |
ollah1:Emotions on overdrive. This happens when fanboy-ism replaces personal goals and ambition; and when feverish and petty love for something overshadows sound judgement. Hence you find yourself buying into burocratic dishonesty like a downtown, ill-exposed rural girl would buy into the deceptive overtures of a well polished city bloke. So , for these past years why hasn't samsung thought it expedient to change its Note series naming pattern to align with the galaxy flagship until now that Apple made a statement in the Phablet arena? Mere coincidence? I should expect that from a fanboy whose perception has been tinkered by emotional dysfunction. postmann:While the internet is an open dictionary where any halfwit can pontificate and spread his superficial knowledge with unbridled arrogance, basic understanding of the English language remains paramount in the admittance to intellectual discourse. |
JoeBlocks:Be merciful joe! The bolded is a spark of creativity though. |
Lezz, joeblocks, a simple psychotherapeutic analysis would help you know in advance who is a faggy fanboy and who's not. Who's making pretence at mobile phone knowledge and who's the real deal. Not everyone you engage especially in an online forums where fools talk with empty passion and false knowledge. Is there anyone one who doesn't know Samsung is a copycat? When did these kids start owning mobile phones? HTC, Sony, LG and co has long left the physical home key button and replaced it with a virtual one. Only Samsung being a major OEM in the android bandwagon retained it just to look like Apple. While rivals copy each other, there's quite something shameless about Asians when they copy others. They do it blatantly with no regard for self-respect or shame. Of course the Note series has been one step back from the galaxy flagship series since several years of its inception. But when Apple ventured into the phablet stage, which is a stage the Note reign supreme only rivaled by some LG phablets, samsung saw need to jump the digits from Note 6 to Note 7 to place the Note 7 as a direct competitor against the iphone7 plus. Apple is by no means free from copying and patent infringement. Like Samsung who are still considered newbies in mobile technology, they pay heavy patent fees to the likes of Ericsson, Nokia, Motorola who own nearly 90% of GSM, 2g, 3g and 4g technology. It will take a lot of space to highlight year to year of samsung copying attitude from the Symbian days till now. |
ollah1:Stop hallucinating. Joeblocks is different from your initial persecutor. |
lezz:Hurdles everywhere. |
lezz: ![]() |
lezz:Nah, I'd rather impale them. ![]() |
JoeBlocks:You can say that again. We can't see it, can't prove i. But we can smell it. Now the telecoms render poor services to its subscribers. From drop calls and poor services and NCC fines them and keep the money in its coffers. While those who have been shortchanged and have received poor service for their money go home with empty wallet. No refund; no compensation. NCC is always the winner. Sometimes the black man and shame don't recognise each other even when they stare eye to eye. |
lezz:The NCC is far from being corrupt-free especially with the recent ditched data hike plan. But it is right to applaud them in areas where they have done well. |
lezz: JoeBlocks:You're not far from the truth. DSTV has some of the sharpest business practices in the land. Though they may be south African firms but they're own by whites and would have done some studies and research on our way of life and habit and are exploiting our carefree attitude in spending (corruption) and loosed relegation. It's time the regulators look into all these excesses and force these foreign firms to play fair. Even the foreign airline operators are ripping Nigerians off. |
I took my lunch break few minutes past mid-day and sighed in relief of my freedom to dedicate the next hour catching up with news headlines on the Internet while sitting down to a nice snack and a cold, fizzy drink. There had been some unattended messages on my phone which were burning for attention and I couldn't wait to get it out of my pocket immediately I sat down to lunch. Bringing out my phone from my pocket revealed a well familiar shocker : my phone's display was lit down with an anxious pop up message from MTN. From experience I knew my phone's display had been lit down for over two hours and my battery had been over-stretched by MTN's greed and madness of earning a few extra box at my expense. MTN has designed its pop up messages to keep its subscribers' phone screens on for as long as it takes until the phone is attend to. Even if one happens to be in a meeting stretching several hours with the phone being on silent, with MTN pop up message the phone's display will light up and stay on that whole time until it is attended to. It doesn't matter if the phone battery is barely hanging on to the last bar, MTN has designed their pop up message to take over your phone's screen, lighting up the screen for as long as possible. They wouldn't consider that today's smartphones with large screen estate, armed with qHD, HD and QHD displays are battery hungry and that sending their customers pop messages that light up their phones' screens and keeping it on for as long as it remained unseen is insensitive and callous. It's not surprising though for a company with its track record which places profit above rationality. But that's not the worst. I have had my senses assaulted my MTN's mindless tactics in their profit pursuit when I received a pop up message from them. It was an advert of one of their products.The pop up message had my phone screen lit down and there was only an "OK" option in the dialogue box. There was no "cancel" button. Only an "OK" button was provided in the dialogue box. Hitting the OK button would have meant my subscribing to the advertised product. I simply hit my phone's return button to escape from that trap. Secondly, since the pop up message had my phone screen lit down, the possibility of accidentally hitting the OK button while getting the phone out of my pocket was high. Or even hitting it while in my hip pocket unknowingly is also another high probability. I believe MTN is aware of these possibilities and have designed these sorts of pop of messages to rip their customers off from these accidents. That's how mindless and desperate MTN has fallen in their quest for more and more profit. There also would have been lots of old folks who for lack of a "cancel" button in the pop up dialogue and being not acquainted with today's mobile devices hit the OK button and find themselves unknowingly steam rolling the MTN cash train. Personally, I believe such category of people were also deliberately targeted by MTN with such dirty tricks. I believe the NCC has covered some grounds, but there are lots of work still to be done. The primary aim shouldn't be generating funds for the government but protecting the rights and dignity of every Nigerian mobile telecommunication subscriber from the abuse of telecom service providers. |
JoeBlocks:Nothing wrong with a man tending his baby but; There's something wrong with this celebrity-culture, anything-to-be-in-the-news mentality of this age. The foolish man lost his masculinity and sanity in his frenzy to hijack the headlines by being dramatic looking after his own child. Mounting the baby across his back and supporting him wit a piece of wrapper is typically unmanly --- something he knows too well but shrugged off in his irrational desire to have a bite at the popularity pie. |
saintCaligula:Well, I love England (Britain) and i bemoaned their lack of success at the continental champions league. This was consequent to their ban from European competition for 5 years (6 years for liverpool) I desperately wanted an English statement, a bang on the continental arena and Chelsea became my chosen amongst others who i still give support on their continental voyage. |
crackhaus:Hahahahhahaha! (At the last bolded) So you've noticed this aspect of him too? Hmmm! The walls have eyes truly. |
