Another thing i noticed about this moniker.
It was just registered today. It was registered to sell this laptop.
The last moniker that was banned was created on 29th March 2023.

The op is trying to sell anonymously.

Why?

Is there a serious fault with the laptop?

Who knows.

I can see you have edited the your post.

I share screenshots of current prices. You had to share 2019 and 2020 Nairaland posts? LMAO

Here is a screenshot of current T480 laptops on jiji.

I got 5 laptops for my small startup in Lagos recently and i know the current prices. I am not a seller.

Here is a screenshot from jiji for Thinkpad T480 from real sellers and not monikers or resellers.

PS: I am not making you a bad person. Dont start a battle you cannot finish.

Baba sey seller is very desperate grin Such an Ill mannered dunce grin You had to prove how stupid and unlettered you are by trying to de-market someone else by telling lies? Shows the kind of human being you are..

Calm down.

I am not demarketing you but showing the folly in your attempt to pass off that low spec laptop as a premium piece.

How can you want to sell a 70k laptop for 180k. ?

You are selling a laptop but cannot share its exact specs? You had to resort to sharing Google’s?

Same laptop usually has different screen types and resolutions. Within the same model, This your own is a TN panel.

To identify a TN panel, check the color as it changes when viewing angle changes.

Attached also is a screenshot of the laptop specs page from gadgetsnow. You can see where i circled the base option’s display as 768px which is less than 1080p.

Why not share the real one on the laptop?

And thank you for telling us the model of your laptop. This is a screenshot from jiji showing the price ranges.

UPDATE: offer the seller 70k last. He go gree

I'm the same person. Mods banned my other accounts

They had to ban you. Spamming everywhere.

So this is the laptop you wanted to collect 180k for?

It has a mediocre screen. A TN panel obviously and not up to 1080p.

Low end acer with low end specs.

If you see 90k, you better collect and buy drinks for the buyer.

There are better laptops than this low budget sample that the OP has for sale.

For 180k, you can be on the lookout for a Lenovo Thinkpad T480 with 8th gen core i5 and 1080p full HD screen. You can check jiji and negotiate.

For anyone interested in this particular laptop, seller is very desperate, try to price 75k and if he doesn’t agree, push to 80k.

Cheers

Buy phones with no lock.

Its better to buy 11 pro with faceid, factory unlock and network unrestricted than to buy something that has no value outside the shores.

What do you think will happen if you travel to say USA with your phone and the phone had been reported?

After trying different lot of frameworks. Thinking Css is hard. I finally discovered flexbox.
Flexbox change my css knowledge. I was doing tailwind earlier this year. I discovered that all the thing have learnt and can use it to develop any website on tailwind, I can replicate everything using css. I'm gonna smoke css. I tried grid also. I don't like grid.i find flebox more easier than grid. Imagine writing 1 line of css to place 5 div elements side by side with flexbox but reverse is the case of grid.

You need grid too.

Flexbox discovery makes a noob’s life easier but you need still need grid when you want to have clear and predictable styles on complex UI.

Learn both. Learn how to combine. Learn when to ise which.

You are getting there.

It's okay to start small. But start well abeg. The only way to negotiate is to exit to another employer cos were do you start asking for 10x increase? Naija has flogged shege from our psyche that we are willing to accept pittance. I understand that ground no level but what people are willing to accept dey shock me. $3/hr for a HR role that the business has probably budgeted $10 or $15/hr. And the funny thing is that these employers end up loving the Nigerians they hire cos we dey work die. I worked briefly for Crossover and while it is somewhat tough getting in, they LOVE Nigerian staff. We can take anything thrown at us. For my Crossover role, I initially turned down an offer of $10/hr cos the workload and expectations did not match the pay. I got called a month later by the Romanian manager for a different Business Unit with $15/hr and "abeg". I took it and worked for a bit before leaving cos I got something better in my current field. Manager offered to increase pay, but me I don't look back when I put in my notice. Cos then you'd just be a sitting target for a future layoff. My God allow us to make the right decisions and request for the best available.

100% accurate.

For context, minimum wage in usa is $7.25/hr.

Do we blame the foreign employers? When you see Nigerian companies offering N70k per month for a fullstack developer and they will list requirements as if they want to write typescript documentation.

And our developers no sabi say no. Some employers would even insist you commute to their noisy office.

This is why i am happy that developers are leaving en masse. If you own a company and cannot afford to pay developers, buy typewriters.

With all the fintechs we have, absolutely no one has found a way to crack cross border payments. There's always one hook or another. You can't even send money from Nigeria to Mali except you are using a dorm account

That issue is Meffy based.

The Naira is on drip. If they should open cross border anything... that currency go reach N2,000 to the USD fast fast.

Ordinary Form A payments, you need olive oil sold at Winners gate plus CAC water and Celestial candle to anoint the request.

This is the only reason why CBN frowns at crypto. Why do they keep bribing us with N5 per USD for inward remittances?

I think a lot of startup founders overestimate the Nigerian economy. The reality on ground isn't what is always on pitch desks. The real market in Nigeria is around 5 million max but people are always projecting 200 million people as a market which isn't right.

True.

In addition, some models would stop working or not work in the long run. How do you want to survive in Nigeria when you simply cannot charge your customers fees. You want to compete with Opay et al? Ordinarily sms alerts that GTB charges once in a while, Nigerians wont let Twitter rest.

We have more fintechs here than in any other African country.

Someone commented that why do i need to have 1,000 ways to pay for a yam.

Unfortunately, many of these fintechs are the same solution with no new innovation. If you are planning to start a fintech and your major solution is still deposit and withdrawal, copying kuda, opay, palmpay and the 150 others, then you might fail.

This is a very big Opportunity for Nigerian Government or one of the big Big Boys in Nigeria, To open our own silicon valley.

I Wish Nigeria Government can harness this technological knowledge, let's start importing Skills to develop our nation.

Sorry but you are so wrong in everything stated here.

First, asking government to open a Silicon Valley clone implies you dont understand how tech businesses work. The governments don’t actively engage in startups. They only provide enabling environments…like a city where everyone is safe at all times for example.
Secondly you said we should start importing skills. Na here you off me totally.
Nigeria has been exporting skills at the rate of a sieve in the last 20 years. As a shocker, all my friends and i are no longer based here. ALL.
On my LinkedIn, most of the people I started work with over a decade ago are no longer here. We are a net exporter of skills.
Nigeria is a serious case at the moment.

Programming / Re: All Chatgpt Does Is Copy And Paste People's Code From Github by truthCoder: 3:31pm On Mar 28, 2023
Devdevdev:
ChatGPT is just a very fast googling interface that steals code from GitHub.

I've seen it return code -- word for word -- many times from various GitHub repositories.

Whenever you ask it to give you code that does something, it just goes to GitHub and searches for a repository with a description that matches your question.

Some codes are performant and kind of standard especially when little logic is involved.

Take the case of setting up an express server with nodejs. Every simplified code will look similar.

Assuming that chatGPT is ‘stealing’ codes is underwhelming at best and does not understand the machine learning ability of the AI.

Due to the ‘complexity’ or lack thereof of your inputs to chatGPT, your results can be the simplified variants or something more technical.

And oh…chatGPT is not about GitHub alone. It is a model trained on the internet up to 2021 and can discuss on many fields.

"(http(s):\/\/)?(www\.)?([a-zA-z]+\.){0,}(\w)+)"

this is the regex i wrote but i have no match if i do

example.com
ab.example.com
www.example.com

^(?:https?:\/\/)?(?:[^@\n]+@)?(?:www\.)?([^:\/\n]+)

Explanation:
^ matches the beginning of the string
(?:https?:\/\/)? is a non-capturing group that matches http:// or https:// if they are present
(?:[^@\n]+@)? is a non-capturing group that matches the username and password (if any) that might be present in the URL
(?:www\.)? is a non-capturing group that matches the www. prefix (if any)
([^:\/\n]+) is a capturing group that matches the domain name, which is any sequence of characters that are not a colon (smiley, a forward slash (/), or a newline character (\n)

I don't understand why you don't get it. They came to Yoruba land and not Nigeria, because if you asked them they'll say they came to Benin empire. Ghana have been existing and have their name as far as 10th century. Get this simple fact into your head

I say it to you that you don’t know the history of Ghana nor Benin.

I mentioned Benin because every authority on African history knows that there is no Benin empire without the Yoruba empire. Both have a common history.

The old Ghana empire was located in southeastern Mauritania, western Mali, and eastern Senegal and not in the present Ghana’s location.

You are simply attempting to twist history by claiming that Gold Coast (which was renamed to Ghana) is the original Ghana. The current Ghana is a fake one.

Lol, don't be ridiculous, how can Nigerian culture be older than Ghana when historically Ghana is as old as Egypt, Nigeria came into being in 1914. Ghana was already an empire way back the 10th century

So in 1914, we all dropped from the sky into Nigeria or were imported like the guys in Freetown?

Ghana is different from Gana and no, Gana is not as old as Egypt. Egypt is the oldest known civilization in Africa.

The Portuguese came to Benin in the 15th century and as at then, the Benins and the Yorubas already had over 500 years of independent and unified history in present day locations.

They were not known as Yorubas (as a group then) but by the respective confederations.
