Ruskov: Dude Listen.. Zero Experience in Cybersecurity is a mirage. Do not listen to these Jokers on here!
Let me ask you, How do u handle Phishing emails? What is your understanding of Spear Phishing? How is your use of Kali Linux? Whats the use of GetAsyncKeystate?
I doubt you can answer those, Now how would you want to Embark on something as complex as those? First practise so you do not get fired from work.
Disgrace is not a good thing!
I understand your point sir but still don't think my question is invalid.
I was just asking on a general note to know how feasible it is. I obviously know There's no singular answer or timeline that can be relied on.
Mcslize: That's the typical mindset. Once you are not doing a 9-5 job where they pay you 150-200k, you are not a worker.
Money some persons are making per week from under their bedroom o.
Exactly..... Many of these folks earn much better than salary workers but simply lack financial discipline hence most of them like to push the narrative of being unemployed since graduation.
Unemployed and you done marry with 2 children buy honda civic for corner
Selfkontrol: Good day Nairalanders. Pls I need some mature advice because I’ve been in a dilemma for a long time now concerning relocating abroad or staying back in Nigeria. First of all I’m not a japa advocate. I believe if you’re doing well in Nigeria then there’s no point relocating abroad but I feel there’s so much uncertainty and I don’t know what the future holds for me in this country.
Now I’m a married man of 30 years. I will turn 31 by this September. We have no child yet but wife is preg now. I have a B.Eng in petroleum Engineering but have never worked in my life. My current business is crypto trading which I have been doing for years now. During the 2021 crypto bull run I made lot of money and acquired some properties that’s currently valued atleast 60-70m naira in total. bought my car same year and got married same year to my long time Gf, settled some family members etc . I don’t have any other investments or business aside my properties and crypto portfolio because crypto trading has taken all my time and I won’t complain because so far it has been good. Making money in dollars while in Nigeria is bliss. Even though we have been in bear season since 2022, I still make some money every now and then that’s sustainable for now until we hit another bull run which is likely to happen from next year 2024.
My fear lies here, on the long run crypto trading is not sustainable. If not for 2021 bull run I don’t think I would be in this position and even the projected bull run next year is not 100% certain
I plan on learning a programming skill which is very difficult, I tried learning it late last year but stopped along the line because it was distracting me from trading and missing some opportunities in crypto because making money is most important. Coding would probably take me a few years before I start earning even though it is sustainable long term but crypto trading can be life changing but not sustainable long term . It’s more like a gamble most times.
My plan A, is to gather enough money from now till 2025 which is the duration of the projected bull run if it happens and start investing in real estate development, Like building and selling and other businesses too but I don’t know how feasible that is in our present day Nigeria and if I don’t make my target amount, I might have to start with the available resources present.
plan B, gather some money, learn a skill then relocate to Canada with my family via study route since I don’t have any real work experience aside crypto trading but that would mean me going to study and starting afresh.
For my wife, she also has a degree in Human Resources with just nysc as working experience. She learnt wig making and installation and has been doing her online biz selling wigs etc.
Abroad folks, what are my chances abroad considering my current profile. Is it worth it coming over there to start afresh And build? I have heard so many things how it’s hard getting a job and you have to rely on survival jobs for the first few years expecially for someone without any work experience.
I really don’t like joining the bandwagon cos everyone seems to be leaving, I love to weigh my options and hate taking unnecessary risk that might lead to regrets, at the same time don’t want to regret not leaving since I’m still young and have the opportunity that’s why I’m here asking these questions to learn from experienced and matured family men home and abroad the action they would take. We learn everyday,
For my unborn kids, if everything checks out, my plan is to give birth to them in either Canada or US for the passport and raise them in Nigeria and when they are grown, send them to study there and that is only if I’m not relocating. And if I’m relocating, what are the in-demand skills and professions I have to take since it’s clear I might be going to school because I hate survival jobs. What is your advice pls. Mature advice pls. Thank you 🙏 @justwise @Disguy
It's only Nigerians that will graduate from school, setup a business and tell you they have never worked in their life.
Tryagain77: I saw a post on this forum which looks similar to mine and that inspired me into writing this to share with people how my boss (former) was abusing me.
I graduated from one of the courses in social science in one of the federal universities and have been job hunting to land a good job but to no avail.
Bills were piling up while I was going down economically. Out of hunger, lack and frustration, I settled to work as a barman in a hotel.
A week after resuming that work, the man that the hotel is leased out to started showing me his true colours. Nobody is above mistake in life. Even minor things that could have been settled without raising eyebrows, he would shout at me and abuse me right in front of customers. He would use derogatory words to describe me and say all sort of inhumane things to me, all to show that he's the boss.
Despite all that, I couldn't leave because I had no other job option at hand. For the 9 months I have worked in the place, these are the things I went through.
1. I have been verbally and physically abused by the said man. There is no kind of derogatory and inhumane word that man has not used on me and most times, right in the presence of customers and also when in the presence of the girls he brings to sleep with.
Note: this is how he behaves with all the staff, not only me.
2. He kicked me, slapped me, knocked my head, spat on me, yelled at me. Calling me a fool, an idiot, useless something etc, was no longer anything worrisome to me again because I got used to it.
3. Because of all these abuses, his friends who use to come there took advantage and started abusing me too. One slapped me the other day because I presented a bill he thought I surcharged him, which we later found out I didnt. I don't blame him actually.
4. You would work 2 months plus before you receive 1 month salary. For example, you would receive January salary between 10-15th of March.
5. Salary was N25,000 but I have never received that amount complete. He always look for something accuse me of in order to deduct our so called salary and pay less. There was a month I received N7000 as my salary.
6. Any customer that breaks a glass pays N1000 for it. When he first mentioned this in a meeting, we thought he was joking, but he was being serious. When he started deducting my salary for broken glasses, then I realized he was serious. I have never heard anything of such anywhere before. That a customer who breaks glass should pay N1000 for it.
What happened on the 23rd of May. 23rd of May was his birthday. He invited friends and celebrated. Right in his presence, one of the guests broke a glass. I'm the only one serving both the bar and guests in the room including food. So it was a very busy time for me. Just because I didn't sweep the broken glass immediately because I was busy serving people, as I wanted to pass, he shouted angrily at me, aimed me with the broken glass and broke my head. I was bleeding and I left the place to a pharmacy to treat the wound. Guess what? He was not even remorseful about it at all.
The following day I tendered a resignation letter with immediate effect. Obviously if I don't leave the place, the man may kill me or make me do something I will later regret.
Now pay me off, he's telling me I need to work again at least another one month for him to find a replacement, if I'm serious about receiving my outstanding salary or I should forget about it. Even at that, I know too well that he will pay me anything he likes, claiming glasses were broken, I did this and I did that. Presently he's looking for job seekers but nobody wants to work with such a crude person anymore. Even someone he sacked as usual over two months ago, he's not been able to replace till today.
Now I'm jobless, hungry and penniless.
I need advice on how to go about to collect my money from this man. I don't have strength for any fight with him. I just need my hard earned money but let it not be until another blood is spilled.
Story of a struggling Nigerian.
After all the previous insults and abuse you swallowed, you still couldn't make a police statement?

I won't forget Andre Ashavin 2005-2006 epl season. I wonder why Ashavin had to score for Arsenal for a game Arsenal didn't need to win, Ashavin scored I think a brace or an hat trick making Liverpool loose the epl titleship that year
Barcelona pulled a fast one on PSG. It's not a feat to forget easily
I write to seek your view on My current situation.
I am a final year student in one of the best Federal university in Nigeria(Name withheld) and certainly, will be graduating with a second class upper within the 4 point range CGPA.( I was on a first class cgpa But my cgpa was slashed no thanks to my department I was a victim as well as others)
My worry is, I will be 26 years when i eventually write my final paper as a student then come service(NYSC) by then 27 max after service.No thanks to COVID- 19 pandemic and ASUU which engulfed my chances of graduating below the 26 age bracket.
In light of the above, Do I stand a chance of securing a graduate trainee position in top multinational organization requesting for 2.1 and above within the age bracket of 26 and below post NYSC,Given that after my service I will be 27.
Ps:I am an accounting student and I intend to start my ICAN exam during service.
My current CGPA is 4.20 ,resuming for my final year come July this year.
You still have about two years to go but don't be deterred....
I am 35 years old and everybody keeps reminding me that age is no longer on my side.
My fiance and I have been dating for more than one year and we are getting married soon.
My fiance is 40 years old and he has never been married.
The relationship was really good when we started but now that our wedding is in a few weeks time, he has shown how controlling he can be.
From the choice of the wedding dress, to the bridesmaids selection, to the colour of the day, he wants to be in charge.
He also wants his mum to buy the cloth for our engagement as well as buy our wedding ring.
He does whatever his family says without seeking my opinion and it almost seems as if I am not the one getting married.
I told my parents about how this makes me feel and they just asked me to endure because I am getting older but I really fear for what is going to happen after the wedding.
Are these not red flags I should run from?
I am confused, please advise me.
I don't have enough information to be able to conclude if he's being controlling or you are lacking submissiveness.
Do you think he loves you? Has he done a thing or two (within his ability) that makes you feel he loves you? Can you share?
Also what are both of you dispositions spiritually/religiously ?
angelEmade: ...the sugar in a plate of semo,amala, akpu, pounded yam, etc. Will amount to about a box of cube sugars. The irony here is that the glucose and other monosaccharides in these drinks are a form of carbohydrates just like the disaccharides in complex sugars like sucrose (normal sugar) . Although all carbohydrates are reduced to glucose and consequently glycogen which are stored in the liver in complex metabolism reactions in the body, you cannot exactly compare these simple sugars to normal sugars. . And ironically, the malt we so much prefer to soda drinks contain Maltose which are complex sugars. A molecule of maltose can comparatively yield two molecules of monosaccharides in these soda drinks. . My point is that starch and carbohydrates like corn syrups and the foods I mentioned up there are much worse than these drinks. And although their intake should be controlled...it would be a futile endeavour if you keep supplementing them with excess starchy foods. . Malt is not a saviour either.
Yes the swallows are all sugar but they come with the natural fibers which makes it better than just drinking sugar.
What most people do is eat those swallows and still abuse sugary drinks
XY23: Maybe true, but PO's template of doing so is in public domain. I think the process would have made the difference, especially now that NNPC has pre-empted market forces by pegging their new rate. This whole thing started on the wrong foot. If NNPC sells at 511, how much do you think others will sell? What template did NNPC use in arriving at that rate, for a product that's supposedly been subsidised till 30th June? Assuming, it's because they don't want to pay after 31st May, there's still need to know how they arrived at that price. This is what BT would have first sat down to work out, knowing Nigeria is a complicated place.
Peter Obi's template was just a regurgitation of what the PMB adminstration had proposed. (Same with his plans for the power sector and a couple of other sectors).
What was needed was for us as a nation to have self sufficiency either through private refineries or repairs of the nnpc owned refineries or better still both.
It's usually clear who benefits form certain loop holes when govt brings up new polices. These set of people decided to implement a policy that's yet to be approved in order to spite the govt. If govt orders that fuel should be sold for #50naira per liter would they oblige?
FRANCISTOWN: This is according to Christianity that Yahweh created the world. According to the Yoruba religion. Olodumare sent Orunmila and Obatala to create the world. According to Pastafarians, the Flying Spaghetti created the world According to Ancient Egyptians religion. Brahmana created the world. According to Islam, Allah created the world. Now my question is, who really created the world among all these gods? And what's the proof that such god did
What do you think? From all you have gathered so far?
XY23: Lol. In essence PBT copied PO? Well, the party has jut interpreted what they meant by 'immediately', as it is their right to do so. If you feel it doesn't need interpretation, why are SANs in court over 'AND'? Naija na cruise, we are all adjusting, no need throwing banters. To be candid, nobody has questioned PBT's intention, he only did it the wrong way undermining the 'Nigerian' factor in everything.
From my following of the campaign, BT was the first to declare that subsidy must go.... Thereafter PO and atiku quickly regurgitated same words

minks: For those of us who are not regular church goers, gather here and let's learn the Bible from each other.
My favourite scripture is Romans 8:32
"He that spared not His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?" (King James Version)
This scripture never fails to remind me of God's unconditional love. When the days get dark, I open my Bible to this scripture to remind myself that God is always with me and He cares about me.
What's your favourite Bible verse? Share with us so others can learn a thing or two.
It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God
Hebrews 10:31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

zyphr: I might just be my experience, my dating life after the university has been more difficult than while I was in the university. In the university, there were a large pool of members of the opposite sex within my age group with shared experiences but this outside world is wild.
Guys, Do you all experience the same? Ladies, is dating also more difficult for you after school? Compared to while you were in school, do you notice a significant drop in the number of men who approach or develop interest in you?
It's only more difficult for men.
For women, it depends on what angle you looking at things from

So what do you want because all you are exhibiting is desire for pity. No constructive steps on how you plan to overcome the addiction.
