While this shows an unbelievable will to strive against all odds, it still poses a precarious situation to the safety of passengers and the driver, who's apparently operating the vehicle with an incomplete sense and awareness of the surroundings caused by deafness.

Politics / Re: Marketers Raise The Alarm Over Lightness Of Petrol by Taciturn1: 6:29pm On Oct 07, 2023
oglalasioux:
Almost all petrol stations are selling condensate.
This could be it. I was turning "PMS" into my Gen set today, it was extremely light and volatile almost like Spirit(ethanol) . Just a slight splash on the inside of the sizeable funnel, and the fuel would jump almost 15cm high. I knew something was wrong, especially since we aren't in winter where the excuse of lighter components in the blend could suffice

Foreign Affairs / Re: Morocco: Massive Earthquake Damages Historical Buildings. 296 Dead, 153 Injured by Taciturn1: 12:31pm On Sep 09, 2023
Sergio101:


Earthquake is a violent tremors caused by ease of piled stress in the crust which sends shockwaves on different direction.

It's actually this shockwaves that causes destruction

Imagine a situation where two moulded blocked placed opposite each other are being pushed together towards each other but in opposite direction (i.e block A is moving East while block B is moving west but are in towards each other meaning that a central point of the whole force will be created), it will get to a point that this blocks will start fracturing and be breaking to pieces.

Reason is that Block A &B are minute when compared to With force being put

Now have a broader view of it......(which is the Earth's Continental block)

In this case.......the Continental block is a big mass of rock (lithosphere), therefore when there's convergence of two Continental blocks or plates, the stress/force at this point of contact can't cause the whole mass of Continental rock to break or fracture, Rather this stress can be heaved or eased or released in other forms...... Basically the SHOCKWAVES. So if there's slight movement of a plate boundary against another opposite plate boundary, the stress released is what causes this destructions and we say that earthquake has happened...


This waves can practically be visualized when you throw a stone to a still water. The wave created by the stone in the water will be very high and noticeable at near point it was thrown (where the stone made contact with the water) but slowly dies off as it progresses. This is same case with Earthquake's shockwaves. It causes more destruction at the epicenter (the point at ground surface directly above the Origin in the sub surface).

Now what is the Possible reason it happened Morocco??

I saw in first where someone Said Nigeria may be hit by earthquake maybe in 2040. Scientifically..... it's not possible. Nigeria is far from it. Nigeria is in a stable Continental plate (stable African plate which has contact far in Atlantic Ocean with South America plate).

So earthquake possibly happened in morrocco because......

Morocco is on convergent boundaries of African, Eurasian (and other plate I can't remember). Little wonder the famous Atlas chains of mountains was formed in it Just like Himalayas of Asia.
So morrocco is on unstable plate...... hence, it is possible for earthquake to occur there.

Another place of possibility is in East Africa (because of rift system).


I'd hope it's clearer to you.

Have a blessed day!!😊🥰🥰

Religion / Re: Bishop Oyedepo Speaks Against LGBTQ Rise In The World (video) by Taciturn1: 5:19pm On Nov 03, 2022

False claims! Look up the unprecedented numbers of Christians and ppl of other faiths converting to Islam the US, Europe, in South America, Australia and everywhere else… who forced or coerced them or what jihad of war forced them into accepting Islam? Anyone can leave Islam, it’s there problem (that happens every time) even the Arabia.

There’s no ‘mass scale attacks’ committed by Muslims any more than those perpetrated by the Christians. In fact, it’s the Christians who have engaged in mass killings in history more than any other religious group! The Holocaust whr more than 6million Jews were killed, the killing and eradication of tribes in Africa such as one perpetrated by King Leopold in the Congos, the enslaving and killings of African and aborigines worldwide by the Christian West, the killing of more than a million Muslims in gulf regions (Iraq and Afghanistan) for more than two decades, how many Bosnian Muslims do you reckon were exterminated by Christian Serbs in the heart of Europe in the 90s… and the list goes on and on.
Those were political wars. Political wars and Religious wars are very different. Have you heard of anyone or group that acknowledged killing for Jesus Christ? God forbid. Despite all insults on Jesus, you never hear of violence or physical attacks.

How do you even remain in a religion that reacts violently to any perceived attack on it's prophet. Where the followeres choose to avenge in anger any attempt of mockery. That's one of the similar traits to cultism i see in the religion, apart from difficulty in denouncing the religion.

We were all born into different ethnic groups and religions, but we must not fail to question them.

Only the Truth shall set us free. That's Jesus
Religion / Re: Bishop Oyedepo Speaks Against LGBTQ Rise In The World (video) by Taciturn1: 6:49pm On Nov 01, 2022
olawonder:

“Jesus is the way” which way? Jesus was a prophet, period! If you don’t worship The One and Only God, Who creates everything including Jesus, then you’re bound for Hell! Jesus worshipped Allah… I asked Christians what language did Jesus spoke in his time they told me Aramaic, then I went to an Aramaic translation website to check for the word God in that language, and I found it’s Allah! Which means when Jesus prayed to God he was actually pronouncing Allah from his tongue!

As for the killings done by some ‘Muslims’ in your country… they’re just ignorant, period! And most of the killings you see or hear on news are propaganda against Islam, they are perpetrated by non Muslims groomed and set up by the West to pursue their interests around the world (these evil men actually kill more Muslims than others)! Lives of humans (and even some animals) are sacred in Islam. God said in the Quran that if you kill one soul it’s as if you killed the whole humanity, and if you spare one soul it’s as if you saved the whole humanity.
"Propaganda against Islam"? That's just a cheap excuse. Also because muslims are being killed by muslims, that gives them the right to murder people of other faith?
My ancestors weren't forced/coerced into Christianity but by the words of truth and kindness shown to them, kindness that has remained prevalent in the various missionary infrastructure/institutions put inplace across the country.
But we know how the Jihad spread Islam and made things difficult for those who didn't adhere to the forced religion.
Can't you see the traits of Jihad in all the individual and mass scale attacks mostly attributed to Islamists?

Can a muslim openly renounce islam without facing grave consequences? Is islam a cult?

Jesus is the truth.

By now his followers ought to hv come to their senses that the religion brought and imposed on them by the West is false, and a scam! Even in the West They’ve left the religion and are doing completely opposite of everything they told you is immoral… there’s only one religion that kept to the strict teachings of their religion, and that’s Islam! If you still don’t know the truth by now, then maybe you’re destined for Hell!
Islam?
The one that's causing turbulence all over the place. The one whose followers murdered Deborah Samuel (their classmate) in Sokoto without much condemnation by other adherents, but rather open and tacit support?

Think again. Jesus is the way, only if you follow and keep His words.
Phones / Re: Starlink Cuts Price Of Start-up Kit For Nigerians To $99 by Taciturn1: 10:29am On Aug 05, 2022
aronski:


not every Nigerian can pay $99 (btw the range of NGN64,000 - NGN64,400) for internet in a month, hope u knw?

most Nigerians will still choose to pay Airtel and co less than NGN5K (btw the range of $11 - $12) for a month for internet connection...

Starlink will be useful to few who can afford it. Airtel and co might be cheating us with expensive data but they are kind off offering to us what we can afford. While on the other hand, Starlink is providing to us what we deserve but not all of us will be able to afford it...

Hope u get my point
Your points are valid, but Internet is pretty cheap in Nigeria

No. The sum what drivers used to pay in local government dues, garage cleaning dues, Ministry of transport dues and LASEPA used to be up to ₦3,000.

Now, the ₦3,000 has been moved into one single price of ₦800 which is a reduction in price so any driver who charges more is just been greedy.

Get it?
Was it ₦3,000 every day?

Just one.

This heavenly race. When you eventually get there, what's next? Dance and sing praises for eternity or what? Cos I don't get it.
If that's all that you'll do in 'Heaven', then isn't it better to make a heaven here on Earth while you're still alive and enjoy all the benefits that come with it. Instead of living a limited and boring life here for what? A reward.

She was puzzled and kept staring at me while I walked away.
So people look alike at times.
Just curious, are you also Yoruba?
