jksxxxx:
On the 4th if July I feel for a scammer he made a post for selling X's max iCloud lock for parts I contacted him and we agreed on a price .I decide to pay since his profile was dated 2009 after sending 40k that was the end he deleted my conversation on WhatsApp.my writing here is not for my money back but to let People to be educated that on no occasion should you trust and pay before seeing .I have people here I do business with that I haven't seen but I don't know why some people just decide to dent Thier name below is the transaction details his number is 08086912885 I tried using another number he blocked me again
Sorry for your ordeal bro.
Please try and report to your bank so that at least his account will be put on hold.


This is where the use of BVN is supposed to come into use. Whatever accounts the BVN is linked to is supposed to be put on hold too. He won't be able to do any transaction with his ATMs and if he mistakenly enters bank to rectify it, he will be arrested but sadly the BVN is totally useless.

PhonesRe: Xiaomi Note 10 Or Iphone by Themandalorian: 10:18am On Jul 07, 2020
Both are top of the line phones. It comes down to your preference. Do you prefer Apples ecosystem or Android's own? Cos if I start talking features na waste of time.

The camera on the note 10 is revolutionary it beats the X and the Xr but not by much as the X is also a champion. The note 10 competes with the 11 pro max in terms of camera.

The SoC too is revolutionary and I think they are on the page in terms of that but personally I'd pick the note 10 since it features a more recent chipset.

The Ikenna351 haters (GAZZUZZ and the rest of Car Talk Gang) has been going round my threads, proclaiming that I don't give out free information on car talk, Nairaland, publicly or online. And I am now manifesting their want, intensions or proclamations back to them and their entire section. Nigerian Peugeot Vehicle users some people are paying me privately to get. Again, I am fulfilling the lion King - Monk haters prophesy and claims. Even some of these bitter and haters of Lion King - Monk have in the past sought my expertise, information or knowledge on car related in the past, both privately and publicly,
Ikenna351, Lion King - Monk.
Everywhere in your epistle gazzuz this gazzuz that. I don't know know if you feel threatened by him or something but that's by the way.

What started this whole thing was someone saying you didn't do one of your project yourself, the simple solution to that situation was to just ignore but you didn't and that started a chain reaction.

In one of your videos you were bad talking about your fellow country people. Why people no go vex. It had nothing to do with gazzuz it was just you making people angry and you call yourself a monk you better work on your self because where ever you go to next who says another issue won't come up? You sef look am:
1. Group issue
2. Nairaland issue
If you keep having problems everywhere then the next thing to do is look into yourself.

And lastly if you leave the car section what is making you confident that it would fall? You even went ahead to say what happened when dr dre left his label record might happen here, even the great Siena left and Car talk section kept living. Your pride is on another level you see why I said you should look into yourself?

nijabazaar:
Let's start

10. Speed.
Both characters have the ability to instantly teleport themselves, making the question of speed a moot point. While Hela's teleportation is linked to her magic, being a Goddess and all, Thanos' is more scientific.

His special chair is powered by something known as techno-mysticism, meaning he can telepathically connect himself with the chair. On doing so, Thanos can make it do various things, including transport himself to any location of his choice (even inter-dimensionally).
Thanos wins
No sweat broken.

There is already equivalent of google map called baidu, their is youtube and co equivalent in tencent etc the problem is that it is not a easy task to get developers on board, if it was that easy, windows mobile wouldn't have failed. Harmony OS will be successful in main land China and it is easier to get chinese developer on board since China already has equivalent or advance replica of western core apps. However it is of no use because Huawei has firmly secured Chinese market even without google suit so the battle is India, Europe and outside Chinese domain and google and Apple rules those places, they need a smartway to bring in developer in even though they v budgeted $1.5billion for that purpose, money alone can't get it done if not microsoft would have thrown triple of that out.

The solution is what they have done but google has moved in to checkmate them.

lets see the next move, my problem is it will take another 5 to 8months to get the clear picture of their next step.
Well said.

The problem is how to encourage developers to support it, without apps the OS is dead on arrival.
Sun Tzu states that lay low and work hard until appointed time, that is what Huawei and chinese government are doing.

The plan is to create alternative app store which is already in existence, encourage developers to move on board and then migrate the system to the their own OS. All Chinese phone manufacturers are on board and it is joint work.
They pilot it with shareit app which is joint work btw BBK, Xiaomi, Huawei and Miezu.
Google is very smart to sniff that out and now they have indirectly join war they were originally against.
I hope its works out for them cos having to rival google would not be easy.


I read somewhere that they were about to launch their own OS called HarmonyOS, if its done then all is left is to get developers on board create some key important apps and they are good to go.
They part that will be tricky are apps owned by google, eg Google maps, youtube, etc.
It will be tricky.

Huawei needed to be killed by all means and google suit is one way to get it killed. Huawei has find away around it and all chinese phone manufacturers are working together to create alternative suit which includes joint alternative app store. Realme, OPPO, IQOO, VIVO and so many are already on baord, they are working together to even encourage developers to create ecosystem around that.

If they are successful in that, what do u think will be next?
The answer is open for all to see.
Google can't sit back and allow that to happen even though they are not happy with what Trump is diong, they know it will push other manufacturers to look for alternative but they will not make it easy for smooth ride for that alternative to take off, that alternative will not use andriod platform as a spring board.
What I believe is huawei will be forced to launch their own OS fully.

Car TalkRe: Life And Times Of An Infiniti G35 by Themandalorian: 4:06pm On May 28, 2020
king406:
I will be comparing more of the performance part of Infiniti G37x coupe with its competitors; Lexus IS350 and E92 BMW 335i. Keep in mind that i’ve owned all 3 cars, the G37x being the current. Note that this is all based off of MY experience, not google.

First off, I love the looks of the G37 coupe, not too flashy yet stylish, aggressive stance and perfect ride height. To most people, it could pass as just any other car. But to those who have a slight knowledge about cars, the big round double exhausts and the 3.7 badge is an easy giveaway. If that doesnt do it, the exhaust growl will pass the message that this is not just any other car, but something quite special, and enthusiasts might consider it legendary. Interior is nothing special in todays world, it is just a simple and clean looking dashboard. The G37 is quite a small car with laughable boot space, small leg and head room. At 6’1 i find myself wishing i had more leg room, but it is something i can manage.

Visibility is very good, despite being a coupe. It has good sized side mirrors and there’s nothing obstructing the rear view. The first thing you notice when driving the G37 is the driving position. If you are familiar with german cars, one of the best things about them is the driving position. The steering sits a bit lower than the dashboard and the seats are up-high making you feel in command of the road. The G37 makes me think i’m in a german car, the driving position is just as good. The steering has the perfect weight to it too.

The car has a 3.7 Liter V6 engine with 330hp and 270 torque, mated to a 7 speed transmission that complements the VQ engine. The G37x benefits strongly from its all wheel drive system, you can floor the accelerator from standstill without much of a wheelspin. It definitely feels like a mid 5sec to 60mph car. It has a very short 2nd gear which i think affects the 0-60 time negatively, it needs to shift up to 3rd gear to reach 60mph. If the 2nd gear was longer, we will most likely be looking at a mid to high 4sec car.

As a Mercedes Benz fan at heart, i am saddened and embarrassed Mercedes didn’t join the competition performance wise in this class of vehicles, at least not until 2015 with the C400. And yes, the C400 is faster than the G37, 335i and IS350, maybe even the Audi S4! They came late to the party, but they blew out the competition as usual. grin

Anyway, the G37 FEELS like it is faster than the IS350 and 335i from 0-60mph, it is louder and more aggressive than its counterparts. The story may be different if the Lexus and BMW i had were also all-wheel drive. Nonetheless, it is difficult for me to tell which of these cars is faster to 60mph, i believe it will depend on who takes off first, the slightest difference will give any of them the advantage. However, the Lexus will be dropped by the time they get past 60mph, though not by much, but the competition is really between the G37 and 335i, which i think will be a close call until around 100mph, the BMW will begin to pull away. Things will get more interesting when cutting through traffic, when 0-60 times dont matter, but the responsiveness of the engines, transmission, brakes and handling come into place. In this instance, the 335i is the car to drive without question. When those turbo’s spool, it gets very serious in the 335i and things can quickly get out of hand. Perfect handling gives you every confidence to cut through traffic without worry, the transmission wastes no time in handling business. I believe the Lexus and Infiniti will be closer this time around, the Lexus benefits from its quick shifting transmission (one of the best transmissions i’ve experienced) and also being lighter than the Infiniti. The G37 benefits from its rev-matching feature (it downshifts to the proper gear when braking or coasting to provide instant takeoff when you floor it) but it has much more weight to work with. All Infiniti had to do was to make the G37 at least 100kg lighter and increase the ratio of its 2nd gear to be clearly ahead of the competition. It would be interesting to put these cars head to head, if i were to pick one for life, i’d pick a Mercedes Benz C400! grin grin

If the 2010 Camry doesn't have the said issues then you can go for it but if you want luxury you can go for the IS or the Benz. The final choice is yours.

Hello house

I need advice on what car I should buy as a first car , I’m a student but I’m into business
I’m considering
GS300
IS250
Camry Muscle
Maybe Benz c230 e320

I’m a lover of fast car and nice interior
You didn't give the year of the cars but since a Camry muscle is part if your option, I'd say 2008

Since you are a student who is into business, it won't be wise to draw unnecessary attention to your self so I'd advice you exclude E320 and the GS 300. I'd also exclude the Camry too cos of the annoying oil issues, melting dash and other issues.

So focus your choice on the IS250 and the C230 both are solid choices, no general known issues on both cars and they will serve you well even as a daily driver.

If its possible you can go for the IS350 over the 250 cos it has more power and more luxury options.

LinLinGentle:
Divorce has been filed. I got lucky as I was able to secure a restraining order when she messed up again and hit me daring me to do my worst. I called the police and made a proper case and she was arrested. She has been banned from the house for a month. The police advised me to talk to my lawyer and extend indefinitely if I want to. I hope to get this done ASAP. The law here does not only protect women but also protects innocent men. All you need is patience and wisdom. Thank you all for your ideas. Still several hurdles to cross but I am on the winning side for now.
Please just make sure your lawyer is experienced on cases like this. Try get evidences that she is the one doing hurtful things to you that's the only way you can win this case. My best friend went through what you are going through and he lost everything cos he didn't have enough evidences to back his claim.
What I'm saying in essence is that Women here tend to win divorce cases against men, domestic violence cases too.
Just be prepared for the worse.

I have a friend who drives that car and it has sent him to the village. Initially the car was like an airplane.

It just went off and refuse to on no matter what was done. Ogbeni run for your life.
The owner probably uses a bad mechanic. The GS350 is as reliable as normal Toyota/Lexus products.

The LC will continue to be their flagship car in the foreseeable future.
The LFA could have been more successful if Lexus didn't take too long to develop it. By the time they were done, faster and better cars were already available. 10 years was just too long but at the same time it's a concept car it wasn't built for success but for the world to take a look and in this case listen to it and behold it beauty or orgasmic sound grin grin.

I'll start with one of my favorites...

Do you know what happens when a car company (Lexus) and a sound company (Yamaha) comes together to create an engine?
A bouncing fully grown Lexus LFA is born.
Made from December 2010 to December 2012 with only 500 made cry .
A Naturally Aspirated 4.8 L 1LR-GUE even-firing V10 pushing 412–420 kW (553–563 hp; 560–571 PS) through a 6-speed Aisin SA6 automated manual.
0-62mph(100km/h) in 3.7 seconds.
That's is one of the best sounding V10 out there, when it screams, it screams like a V10 Formula One car and reliably ( looking at you Lamborghini Aventador).
It had a base price for $375,000 but it's going for above $400k right now.
This is most likely the last of it's kind due to strict emission and sound laws, even Lamborghini and Ferrari are dropping Naturally Aspirated engines for turbocharged hybrids....sigh...(Don't worry planet Earth we'll try our best).


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9qYCUjrrYs

That LFA in my opinion is the best sounding V10 ,period. Lexus really did a good job with that car. I hope their next concept car is as great as the LFA.
