Celebrities › Re: Viktoh Tweets After Police Assault by Vacora(m): 8:23pm On Jan 03, 2019
Take a cursory look at the cross section of comments, most are written by kids who think making puerile jokes about someone being brutalized by Nigerian police is okay or funny? No empathy, no moral compass or conscience.

If it were a mundane and totally irrelevant topic about curves on some ugly dingbat or ‘see what this z - list celebrity did’, you’d see all of them jumping up and down like virgins at a whorehouse. I despair at the future of Nigerians! It seems we deserve the politicians and leaders who are currently taking us for lowly peasants who can be subdued, violated and subjugated time and time again. We have to change the way we treat each other. Dem swear for una?

The saddest part of this story is that a corper who is a leader of tomorrow is already engaging in fraud today.
What type of future leaders are we grooming in Nigeria?

All she was asked to do was to serve and she's already skipping attendance.

The corper erred to have earned this discipline from the deacon who like my parents is a disciple of Proverbs 22:15.
Don't forget that this is Africa where the child doesn't belong to the parents alone.

And that corper is old enough to be the principal's granddaughter.

So if x = y + 3x
3x - y is still x.
And the village idiot speaks once again.

Apple always stealing from other people, since 1998...Who do you think is behind the recent Samsung Galaxy Note 9 fire incident... Apple of cause.. because they know that for as long the Note 9 is there with features that are more better than what their new glorified and overhyped iPhone Xs has, they are not going to sell even one single unit... Bleep Apple. Bleep iPhones.
Really? So Samsung was not liable for the recall of their Note 7s but it was Apple’s fault?
Phones › Re: Qualcomm Drags Apple To Court, Accuses Apple Of Stealing. by Vacora(m): 9:03am On Sep 26, 2018
“Apple declined to comment on the new filing and referred the BBC to a statement issued in June last year.

Qualcomm supplies "us with a single connectivity component, but for years have been demanding a percentage of the total cost of our products - effectively taxing Apple's innovation", Apple said then.

"We believe deeply in the value of intellectual property but we shouldn't have to pay them for technology breakthroughs they have nothing to do with. We've always been willing to pay a fair rate for standard technology used in our products and since they've refused to negotiate reasonable terms we're asking the courts for help," Apple added.

Intel declined to comment” ~ (BBC News)

That’s other side of the argument. An article should be balanced and fair. Not suprised this is another Apple bashing post from you and it is becoming petty.
You are entitled to your own opinions but you are not entitled to create or fabricate your own facts.

If he truly lives in the UK, he has indicted himself in the extra-judicial arrest (since when did 'vigilantes' become law enforcement agents to pronounce people guilty on the basis of their ethnicity?), and torture of the 'suspects'.

Watch this space.
So true. As much as I sympathise with him for the loss and damage to his property, he has just implicated himself in other serious matters. He should have counted his losses and moved on.

There’s nothing special about their marketing strategy. The only strategy Apple has used for years to ensure high sales volume is by running a “closed ecosystem” with the iOS software. Many iPhone users want to switch but when you consider the amount you will lose, then they are forced to stay. And the worst part is, the longer they stay, the more they invest (money paid for apps, music, videos etc), the harder it is to dump the iPhone. So the consumer is basically stuck or trapped within the Apple ecosystem, which means more sales for Apple, because it’s cheaper to buy another higher iPhone and transfer your ecosystem into it, than to switch into a new device and lose all the money you used to buy 1000 songs you downloaded on iTunes (a song costs about N150 averagely, and some albums as much as 1.5k - 2k and maybe you have 20 albums on your phone). Then let’s not talk about the apps you paid for, and other money you’ve thrown into the Apple ecosystem, none of which are transferable to a non-Apple device and only transferable to Apple devices only. So therefore the consumers are stuck inside the Apple loop, and the Apple ecosystem warmhole keeps sucking their pockets, but they have no choice but to continue. One of my phones is an iPhone, and it’s quite hard to dump it. Every time I drop it, later I pick it up again because I have put in a lot of money into the Apple ecosystem to lose it all just like that. But i’m not an Apple sheepie that jumps on every new device they launch, because I understand and know how the Apple closed ecosystem turns their customers into loyal slaves that are stuck inside the iOS matrix grin.
Really? As much as Apple operates a closed operating software you are wrong in your assertion that purchased songs are not transferable. You have simply have to download the Apple Music app on a non Iphone device. My colleague has Apple music on his Samsung Note 8 for all his previous Itunes purchases however I will have to enquire about movies.

You have also failed to mention the advantages of their operating system whilst you piled gleefully on the negatives. IOS is secure and robust, you do not need to purchase any antivirus software to combat malware plaguing the android ecosysytem. I will also mention the advantage of regular and quick updates or fixes? Tracking your IPhone when it is lost or stolen or simply have the ability to wipe the device remotely? Ability to answer calls on your Macbook or IMac or Apple Watch whilst your phone is not within easy reach?


What other applications have you insisted that are only obtainable on Iphones that you cannot have on an Android device? Other manufacturers or brands have their equivalent or alternatives for example if you hate Safari as much as I do then you could opt for Google or Firefox or other browsers on the App Store.

It is easy to switch now and all phone makers are struggling with the issues of retention and obsolescence. Consumers are holding to their phones longer as we have now noticed the technological stagnation. Why spend thousands of pounds on a device when there is really no major benefit or difference from a previous model.

Of course I’d love to own a Tesla X but if you prefer to cruise town in your VW bettle or Renault Twizy it is all a matter of personal choice and satisfaction. Have a splendid day.

At launch Destiny could have been considered subpar but by the Taken King expansion it was a different and much better game. I played the hell out of it, racking up 1700+hrs over 2yrs. I as I heard it there are still people playing it even though the sequel is out.
I have been a Destiny fan since day one. Never got to play the Raids in 1 which were a big deal with the mythoclast rewards celebrations grin Currently in Bad News Bear Clan and finished the Leviathan raid with them.
What’s your gamertag?

I understand why you might think Destiny  was a successful video game, Afterall Destiny 2 is the second best-selling game of 2017 , and it got largely positive reviews (overhyped reviews to be precise, probably paid reviews). The PC version was also considered a fantastic port, On paper, everything seemed perfect, but then reality hit: something is obviously wrong with the game. You dont believe huh? this link shows how financial analysts and gaming experts admitted  that  the game is struggling.


https://www.pcgamer.com/destiny-2-is-not-in-a-good-place-says-analyst-in-wake-of-microtransaction-concerns/


But that obviously isn't all. It's surprising how alot of so called "loyal" fans could have quickly turned their backs on the  game that was so popular just few months ago but(check their bungie's online community to see the utter disgust of users towards the game). I think I have an explanation though, the game has been criminally overhyped right from onset, it's good game, but it was overhyped.



You agree with me then that the micro transaction issues did not start with Destiny 1 which was still a commercial success. It had its bugs and issues just like any other game but the development team at the helms at the time were in tune with fans and YouTubers. Daily player numbers still peak and plummet after each DLC? It is still good going by the numbers but not up to Destiny 1.

It is your opinion that the game is overhyped however it is not ‘fact’ is my submission.

Destiny 2 is debatable and some of the criticism was just hoard mentality and I can agree it had high hopes with the improved game play and mechanics but the development team just let it flounder.

You failed to mention Call of Duty after BLOPs and Advanced Wayfare as overhyped duds?

"Bungie are doing it again" they said.

"It's the next Halo", they said.

Little did all the press outlets and hands-on impressions know, the code and set of missions available before

launch and during the beta was... the exact same we'd get for $60. Over time it would be revealed that Bungie's higher-ups gutted everything about the game other than its combat mere months before launch, resulting in something that played exquisitely (this was Bungie, after all), but whose depth was entirely surface level.


Microtransactions and DLC story segments followed, as did the news that the game itself cost a ludicrous 500 million dollars to develop. Bungie touted a '10 year plan' for the franchise too, yet that only succeeded in peeing off the vast majority of consumers before Destiny had left the starting gate.


Destiny remains one of the biggest missed opportunities in gaming, and although its player base have an average of 500 hours per person (yes, really), this was 'the next Halo' like the original Kinect was the next step in gameplay interaction.
Dude, clarify Destiny or Destiny 2? I am a clan member and know other players who have religiously followed the game franchise avidly for years. Destiny 2 was a dud in some respects however both games are still a commercial success for Bungie despite the mixed reception. Micro transactions with the Eververse malarky did not start until Destiny 2. Other issues mentioned such as the XP throttling scandal, multiple repeat same exotics rewards, lack of storyline and weapon reskins did not start until Destiny 2.
