Family / Re: My Woman Wants A Blood Covenant by RoadMozart(m): 3:14pm On Jul 19, 2023 |
Op please don't do it. Women can be senseless at times. I had this girl back then after sec school days. She fell in love with this guy and because their families were against the union, they did that blood thing. Few months later they eloped. We didn't hear from her. Her family thought she ran away with me that was in uni then. I later came across her on facebook after 4 years. I quized her to know the motive behind her actions. She then made It known to me that she did the blood thing and she can't break it. They had a daughter then but the girl died in one mysterious manner such that I've not heard about before. She suffered A lot from the relationship but there was no wanting out 9 Likes |

Romance / Re: Does Soaking Garri Actually Affect The Eyes by RoadMozart(m): 7:38pm On Jul 15, 2023 |
I don't think it affects everyone. The Ilaje people consume a lot of garri and fish but they rarely have eye problems. Personally, I don't like garri. Back when I was in the University, I took too much of garri to the extent that I began to feel it in my toes as if the garri stored there. Since then I take garri occasionally 1 Like |

Car Talk / BY 2030 We'll Not Have These Things In Our Cars by RoadMozart(m): 6:12pm On Jul 13, 2023 |
30 THINGS THAT WILL DISAPPEAR FROM THE AUTO INDUSTRY BY 2030 30: Antennas If you’ve ever driven a car from decades past, you know what an antenna is. There was a time when antennas were fashionable, and some drivers even sported accessories like an antenna ball. But today cars have mostly done away with the traditional antenna. One such reason for this is the move toward streaming and satellite radio. 29: Sedans Sedans are sort of the dinosaurs of the automotive industry as they are phased out by the crossover movement. Sedans were once the quintessential form of family transportation, and for decades have provided solid transportation at a reasonable price. Nevertheless, the sedan has experienced a rough go over the last decade as consumer tastes continue to shift. 28: Station Wagons The family station wagon is already on the endangered species list, but there are still wagons out there sold on the market. However, the future looks quite dim when it comes to the station wagon as we know it. Crossovers are the dominant segment of the vehicle right now and it appears that trend is going to stick. 27: CD Players There was a time when having a CD player in your car was a badge of honor. Today, that isn’t the case at all as instead the CD player has been replaced. First, it was vehicles that had MP3 compatibility built-in, and now it’s the rise of streaming audio. All you have to do is hook up your vehicle’s audio to a Bluetooth connection. 26: Car Batteries The car battery as we know it is going to disappear in the not-so-distant future. The car battery used to be responsible for giving your engine the juice to turn over. Now with electric cars having an entire battery system, there will no longer be a need for that “extra” bit of juice. Car batteries are an expensive thing to replace, so it will be nice to have a dedicated system instead. 25: Spoilers It used to be that a spoiler was a unique and special option drivers could get from the dealership. But as automotive design has become more inclusive, the need for a spoiler just won’t be there in the future. The body shape of futuristic cars will be smooth and aerodynamic without a lot of extra stuff attached to it. 24: Custom Exhaust Tips You had to of known this one was coming. The end is near for custom exhaust tips. With the gasoline-powered engine on the way out in coming decades, there’s not going to be a need for these. Diehard enthusiasts love custom exhaust tips but they just will disappear for the most part by 2030. Custom exhaust has always been a staple of high-performance cars but that isn’t so anymore. 23: Superchargers Getting the most performance that you can out of a V8 engine used to be a big goal in the auto industry. But with the design of electric cars, that won’t be as prominent for very much longer. Instead, an electric engine uses a number of other things to squeeze insane performance numbers out of it. Superchargers will still be around on classic cars, but it will be much less than before. 22: Diesel Smoke Chips Rolling coal, as it’s called in the diesel community, is a popular modification that is done to lifted diesel trucks. But as the pickup truck market switches to electric power, these custom chips are going to disappear. The drivers of the future are probably not going to be interested in squeezing the most out of their diesel-powered trucks. 21: Traditional Keys This is already happening as most automakers have already switched to using a keyless fob. The traditional automotive key as we know it is going away as cars are becoming more advanced. You can now start most new cars using your smartphone, so the need for a key is almost nonexistent. 20: Side-View Mirrors Side-view mirrors were always an instrumental part of automotive design. In the 1970s and ’80s, passenger mirrors were considered an option, and by the 1990s two mirrors were the norm. But with new cars, there’s an abundance of cameras built into the vehicle. Blind-spot monitoring is quickly becoming standard equipment and the need for a mirror is minimal. 19: Front Grills The grill on the front of your car does more than just give the car a stylish look, it’s also used for cooling the engine. But with the rise of electric-powered cars, there will no longer be a need to cool a gas-powered engine. You’ll notice that most modern electric cars forego a grill and there is a good reason for that. 18: Audible Turn Signals That infamous turn signal lever on the side of your steering wheel is going to be a thing of the past. Most modern cars used blind-spot monitoring and will activate the turn signal for the driver ahead of time. This means that there will no longer be a need to click the turn signal on by yourself. 16: Headlight Switches Another part of vehicles that are going away is audible headlight switches. GM brought the world the Daytime Running Lights in the 1990s and after that, the headlights were automated. Almost every car has some sort of detection system so it can tell daylight from dusk. 15: Adjustment Knobs Remember when the dashboard was covered with various knobs that would do many things? Well, those are a thing of the past as digital dashes are becoming the norm. Take one look at the inside of a new Dodge Ram or a Tesla and you will see what we are talking about. The inclusion of knobs inside of a vehicle is all but extinct in the car world. By 2030 touching an adjustment knob will be a thing of the past, as most vehicles will be smartphone-based. Sure, adjusting the knobs was a distinct aspect of owning a car but it’s a part of the automotive world that is slowly leaving and is surely going to be missed. 14: Cigarette Lighters The cigarette lighter used to be one of the most common aspects of a new car, but now smoking is extremely out of favor. Not only is a new generation of buyers much healthier than before, but vaping is also a common practice. This means that the need for a traditional cigarette lighter in a vehicle just isn’t that much 13: 12V Accessory Port The port where the cigarette lighter used to be located is still there in most new cars, it’s just been relabeled. But the 12V port that we use to charge phones and such is going to be extinct in the next 10 years. There just won’t be a need to charge phones or devices anymore because wireless charging is becoming the norm. 12: Fobs As keys themselves are disappearing so are the fobs that went behind them. A number of automakers have already introduced smartphone apps as a way of unlocking and starting a car. Pretty soon you aren’t going to need any type of a key or a fob to get into your vehicle. This will enhance the security of vehicles as well and auto theft will be virtually nonexistent. 11: Halogen Headlights After decades of use, light bulb technology has finally advanced away from the traditional technology that we know. LED headlights and bulbs are becoming the norm and the halogen is slowly being replaced. Not only is LED brighter, but the technology is more efficient and cheaper to produce. The only problem is that do-it-yourselfers are going to have a tough time replacing LED headlights. The cars of the future are no doubt going to rely solely on LED lighting. 10: Hydraulic Power Steering Power steering was a massive advancement when it was released decades ago, but now the technology is outdated. Regular hydraulic steering decreases the fuel efficiency and relies on the engine to operate. Not to mention that when there is a leak, the entire power steering pump can cease operation and will cost a ton of money to replace. 9: Rearview Mirror Dimming Switches There was a time when automakers were experimenting with the idea of smart glass. Rearview mirrors can often blind you on a hot summer day, which is where the dimming switch came in. Most automakers have incorporated the technology to control if the mirrors are becoming foggy or clouded. 8: Manual Seat Adjustments There was a time when the seat adjustment lever on the side of your car seat had to be adjusted by hand. Then by the time that luxury cars became the norm electronic seating adjustment was used more often. Nowadays memory adjustment and automatic seating adjustment are slowly taking over in the automotive industry. 7: Spare Tires The “Donut,” as drivers like to call it, is perhaps the most dreaded part of car ownership. You don’t want to be the one who is stuck on the side of the highway changing a tire. Fortunately, automakers are working on a way to eliminate the spare tire altogether. The next generation of cars is going to incorporate run-flat tires. 6: Engine Bays The one thing that separates an electric car from a gasoline-powered car is the engine bay. An electric car just doesn’t have one, and that’s because the electric engines are a lot differently designed. Take the new Ford F-150 Lightning for instance as the front “hood” area is another cargo area similar to the trunk on a sedan. 5: Hubcaps Hubcaps used to be a thing of style that you’d see on certain vehicle makes and models. Unfortunately, as automakers have moved toward alloy wheels and rims, the need for hubcaps just isn’t there anymore. Most vehicles that are coming out nowadays use a much larger wheel in general than the cars of yesteryear. 4: Backup Cameras While backup cameras are some of the hottest and newest technology in cars right now, by 2030 they’ll be gone. Automotive technology is coming along so far that cars will be able to park themselves. Thus, there won’t be a need for a backup camera anymore because the driver will be parking the car by themselves. 3: Sunroofs The sunroof used to be an option in the car that made the difference if you wanted an open-air feeling. But the new generation of cars is often incorporating a panoramic roof and thus the need for a moon-roof is all but gone. The sunroof would often leak and there were a lot of issues with the quality as cars got older. 2: Fog Lights As automakers experiment with new exterior lighting solutions such as LED bulbs, the need for fog lights will get less and less. As it stands right now the fog lights don’t do all that much for the visuals on the road. Even a bright pair of fog lights don’t seem to increase the visibility by all that much in the long run. 1: Headlight Wipers Cars that have headlight wipers are usually high-level luxury vehicles, and you’ll often wonder what use these are. The original intended purpose was for driving through muddy conditions where the mud covers the headlights. For the average city dweller, these wipers are seldomly ever used, especially in dryer climates such as California.
