Phones(apple Vs Google) Steve Jobs Hated Android! But Why? by TechLector(op): 8:11am On Jun 02, 2020
Did you know that many years ago, Steve Jobs looked favorably on Google and its efforts in the market? Incidentally, the most famous personality in the world Apple was even invited to CEO of the now research giant, refusing, but retaining a ‘mentor’ position.

However, when Google bet heavily and ugly on the Android mobile operating system, the relationship went sour! Do you know why?

If you happen to think about what Steve Jobs thought about Android, you are likely to remember this statement:

“I’M GOING TO SPEND EVERY CENT OF THE $ 40 BILLION THAT APPLE HAS IN THE BANK, TO FIX THIS. I WILL DESTROY ANDROID BECAUSE IT IS A STOLEN PRODUCT. I AM WILLING TO START A THERMONUCLEAR WAR! ”

Apple vs Google – Hate is well known, but what was the reason behind all this?

For Steve Jobs, although Android has several names of sweets for each new version, the only flavor that Jobs had in his mouth… It was sour betrayal! Let’s look at history a little.

First, in this long history, in 2001, the founders of Google had a meeting with Steve Jobs to invite him to the position of CEO. Of course, Steve refused! However, as I said above, he retained a mentoring position to help the company grow, thanks to the friendly relationship with everyone involved in the project.

This is because, at the time, Steve Jobs looked at Google with good eyes, a company with a lot of good, and that in no way threatened Apple in the market.

However, in 2004, Apple started developing the first iPhone! A super-secret project, which was known to only a few personalities within the company. However, in 2005, Google bought the Android OS, at a time when nobody really knew what the software had to offer. The rumors just mentioned that it was software and OS for wireless devices. At this point, even Steve Jobs didn’t know what Google was up to.

Interestingly, in 2006, Google CEO (Eric Schmidt) joined the Apple administration, showing that there are still great bonds of friendship between Steve Jobs and those responsible for Google. Interestingly, from this point on, Google started to collaborate with the iPhone team, in order to bring Google Maps to the innovative smartphone. (However, great details about the device itself were not shared. Especially about the design. A safeguard that most likely saved the iPhone of a serious competitor right at its launch.)


2007, the year of the launch of the iPhone!

When the first iPhone was launched, the mobile world changed, and consumers went crazy! However, Google was working on this Android prototype!

TPound:
This is a 2009. The 10th digit in the chassis number represents the year it was manufactured

Also anything produced from June of the year of manufacture will be counted as the preceding year
According to CarGuideNGR, with the image below, it means it is 2011 and not 2012 even though its date is 10/11
Car TalkConfused About Car Years by TechLector(op): 3:03pm On Feb 15, 2020
How is a car year calculated? some cars made almost at the end of the year, (let's say 2008) will be tagged as a 2009 car. Please I need someone to explain this. is this done on in Nigeria or it's so everywhere else? Thanks

OMG,,,

How some sick ass boys think on this Nairaland baffles me. Well, i am not as dumb as you are; I have the right to question how my money is used or others no matter how little it is (i was thought well)... Its obvious that you have made it already. And besides, maybe i have more than what you, your papa and mama can spend till your last day on earth.

SoNature:
Oga, stop all this drama.

How much do you even have in the bank?

I transferred a huge sum from my Payoneer account to my First Bank account.

The transaction usually takes a maximum of three days.

However, it took about two weeks to reflect, but I didn't come to the internet to tarnish their imagine.

I used the right channels to follow up on the issue, and they resolved it.

If you think your bank isn't serving you well, switch...it's that simple!

You are ranting as if it has always been like that ever since you opened the account.

I don't know how old you are, but you really need to grow up.

No Nigerian bank is perfect.

With all the above experiences, are you still thinking of opening an account with Access Bank today? I guess not.

I hope prospective customers won't fall prey to this godforsaken bank because right now, I cant wait to get my refund and close all accounts with Access/Diamond Bank. Have you also been poorly treated by Access/Diamond Bank? Please share your experience(s) with TecHLecToR in their comment section.

[b]I finally made up my mind to open a new account with UBA bank today. (New Life?)

Do you know the most surprising thing?

On getting to the bank I met some people outside and thought they came to use the atm machine, unknowingly to me that they have been waiting for several minutes outside the bank due to GENERATOR fault.

They can't go in either, those inside are coming out.

I joined the queue and waited for minutes too but the GEN is still yet to work (rubbish).

My question is that, how can a whole UBA be using only one GEN (Stingyness)

I was there when a guy said a woman was entering into Wema bank and was inside the door when their GEN switched off. (You want to laugh? Read on)

The woman was stucked inside the door for 2hours before the GEN started working. The guy said the woman was sweating like SHE goat.��
(Do you know the heat can kill the woman?)
Bank for enter Gbese be that o!

Omo, I quickly zoom off to my house Jeje.

UBA just loosed a customer and I don't even know about those outside too.

My bank is useless and the alternative is useless too.

Is this how useless Nigerian banks are?

We are in hot pepper soup in this country.

May Jehovah help us.[/b]

Below are complaints made by close friends:


I finally gave up on Nigerian banks.

Diamond(Access) has been giving me a lot of headaches for several days now and are causing me to loose a lot of businesses both online and offline.

I find it very tough to send money using mobile app, I can't even use USSD (imagine!)

Telling me "An error occurred, please check your account balance before initiating another transaction" even when I have enough funds to transact on? (Stupidity and Craziness)

I thought this will stop after few hours or few days until it kept repeating day by day.

Another notable thing is their non-functioning livechat that has been there for so long; I mean, why put up a feature that is not working on your official website? Trust me; you can go days waiting to be attended to here. With all the money they are making, why not set up a proper functioning website?

BusinessRe: Why Banking With Access/diamond Bank Nigeria Is Unsafe - Opinion Piece by TechLector(op): 5:43pm On Oct 25, 2019
In addition to my other experience with Access/Diamond Bank, just this morning, I received three N150 reversal credit alerts from the bank (N450 in total) that I was not aware of when I was debited. Does this mean they have been doing that without me noticing?

BusinessRe: Why Banking With Access/diamond Bank Nigeria Is Unsafe - Opinion Piece by TechLector(op): 5:42pm On Oct 25, 2019
Right now, on their Facebook fan page, there are thousands of negative reviews of people having similar issues (and about 10% are positive reviews published a long time ago): most of these reviews are not responded to. In fact, my last message is yet to be addressed, thereby making me see Access/Diamond Bank as one unserious bank that takes their customers' complains for granted.

Are you looking for a Bank with the worst customer care service or a problematic one with a system that is out of order? Then don't look any further, Access/Diamond Bank Nigeria is the answer to your quest. Although, there are many other banks in Nigeria that are bad too, but Access/Diamond Bank is ranked as their cheerleader. Banking with Access/Diamond Bank is like skydiving with a faulty Parachute.

There have been too many complaints about this Bank lately. Without much ado, let me dive into telling you guys my experience so far with the bank.


There have been many bad reviews about Access bank, and I am one of the victims. Dating back to the last few months, a fund that was supposed to be received into my domiciliary account was held for over three weeks. I made several calls, DMs on Twitter and Facebook, sent countless emails and even head over to their headquarters on the Island when I got tired of the bank, but still, I was told to wait more days before I finally got the payment after having wasted thousands of naira talking to their call centers.

Few more days after the end of their previous dramas, as if that wasn't enough, I was debited for a failed transaction as I tried making a data subscription on my nTel SIM; this was on the 18th of last month. I contacted them on the phone, sent emails that are yet to be responded to, and even went to branches near me to complain, but no solution till this moment. I keep getting SMS messages saying they are going to make a refund while nothing is done still.

ComputersUpcoming Whatsapp For Desktop Will Function Without Using Your Phone by TechLector(op): 6:13pm On Jul 30, 2019
WhatsApp released its web version a way back in 2015. WhatsApp web-only mirrors the conversation from the mobile app and the mobile should be connected to the internet. And the current desktop version of Whatsapp is not fully efficient.

But the current scenario may change as Reliable WhatsApp leaker account WABetainfo has tweeted something related to the upcoming WhatsApp desktop version. In his tweet, he said that the company might be developing a Universal Windows Platform (UWP) along with a multi-platform system. The upcoming version of WhatsApp will work even when the phone is switched off.

If this happens then you will be able to access WhatsApp from your desktop without having your phone with you. You will not be required to authorize every time from your phone to use WhatsApp on your desktop.

Currently, WhatsApp allows its users to use it on Windows or MAC desktop. But the major disadvantage is that you need to have your phone with you to access WhatsApp on the desktop. Telegram has already launched its desktop version which doesn’t require user’s phone to run. However, there is no solid information when this feature will be available for WhatsApp users. Stay tuned here to find future information regarding this.
