It's no myth.
Mobile Phone Battery technologies have evolved over the last 3 decades and modern batteries no longer need this step.
Foreign AffairsRe: Canada Tightens Foreign Workers Rules As Nigerians, Others Risk Deportation by WeirdAlien: 11:52am On May 25, 2025
Amayabor1:
Is US and other western countries that are trying to limit immigration also copying the UK?

If you want a sure and secured path to immigration to Canada, go as a PR. All these temporary visa and stuff too get wahala. Canada wants to reduce temporary residents in their country (students, workers on temporary/work visa etc) and it is understandable.
No. UK generally has more confidence to limit immigration when the USA is doing something similar.

Always trying to copy UK until they suddenly realise that their country is much different.

Sounds like de-marketing,but again it is what it is…
You can call it de marketing,but you can also call protecting the company,but two truth can coexist
A recruiter saying such statement is revealing his very own incompetence. The purpose of the interview is to measure the candidates's skill and experience via technical questions and case studies.

Klington:
huh
He was being factual.
Nothing personal here.
It spke out of past bad experience.
No. That's an unprofessional comment. He could land in serious trouble if the guy takes it up with him, especially if he wasn't given the job.
UK employers generally have an obligation to prove they tested all candidates equally. In fact you have the right to request for your interview score sheets in any govt funded company.
PhonesRe: Airtel Network Frustrating My Business. Any Alternative? by WeirdAlien: 8:12pm On May 22, 2025
If you're running internet dependent business in Nigeria you must have at least 2 or 3 network subscriptions.
1. Your primary network is the one that has the best connection in your area. You have to test multiple ones before you pick this.
2. Your fallback network is the one with the second best connection/speed in your area.
3. Your spare network. You almost never use this one. But one day, you're so desperate you need to get things done now now.

This is the only way to avoid high BP.

One mistake and Chernobyl will be the story.

Nuclear is cheap and sustainable, but for a country with zero maintenance culture and gross indiscipline it's a ticking nuclear bomb instead of powerplant.
PoliticsRe: Exxonmobil Affirms Plan To Invest $1.5 Billion In Nigeria's Deepwater Oil Fields by WeirdAlien: 12:40pm On May 08, 2025

RomanceRe: Is This Kind A Sin? by WeirdAlien: 3:00pm On May 04, 2025
Favours and gifts make you indebted.
In this case, you already know they're not for free - she's paying you in advance for your services.

One day your wife will annoy you and this other woman will waiting with open arms... You will have sex with her - maybe on multiple occasions.

Of course, you already know these things. You know the answer to your own question.

It's not a matter of sin or not sin. It's a matter of not putting yourself in a disadvantaged position when you're vulnerable. Everyone has weak and vulnerable moments - what you bring into those moments will determine where you'd eventually come out from.

But really. The most networked media houses are owned by western countries. And they will never report anything good about a country that defies western powers.
Nairaland is a blog, doesn't field journalists who source stories.

Of course, Nigeria won't make the list of top 100.
Nairaland comments alone are a direct reflection of the average IQ of many Nigerian youths.
When it comes to evil in all its ramifications, you will find us at the top of the list.
Valid point.
But also, no PURE BLOOD black African country is on that list.
These guys will always make you think you blacks are the dumbest race that exists.

No sense!
The day African leaders wake up and realise the reason the continent is poor is because we export raw materials instead of finished products (which we now buy back), all these western countries will start begging us for money to survive.
Our leaders would rather find "foreign investors" to come and buy our natural resources for cheap price for 100 years!
And some accursed individuals will still come here and praise them for bringing FDI.

Christianity EtcRe: Can You Say Confidently " I Will Make Heaven " by WeirdAlien: 7:46pm On Apr 02, 2025
The Bible says there will be a new heaven and a new earth, and a new Jerusalem. It also says the righteous will inherit the earth. Why do you think every saved person will end up in heaven forever?
Hope you know paradise and heaven are not the same thing?
Christianity EtcRe: Why Do Jws Denounce Infant Baptism When Their Publications Support It? by WeirdAlien: 9:01am On Apr 02, 2025
Most of us "mainstream" Christians are raised to interact with JWs with (sometimes extreme) prejudice. The moment they open their mouths, all we hear is heresy, then all we want to do is argue with them without listening. More often than not, we pick certain statements without hearing the whole context. And this have greatly robbed us of learning anything from them.
1. There's something they do better than almost every Christian denomination I've seen - they preach the gospel with passion - at every opportunity. Many of us are not nearly that dedicated.
2. They stay simple. They don't waste resources on fancy church buildings, premium/luxury vehicles for leaders, expensive equipment, etc. Everything is focused publications and reaching out to the world.
3. They remain focused on the primary message of the gospel - salvation! Most of the rest of us have imported worldly noise into our messages.
4. A few of their (contrary) teachings are actually true in my opinion, and we're the ones who didn't read our Bibles properly (especially Pentecostals). I am not interested in debating specific topics, so I won't get into details.

I'm not taking sides. My message is simple, like I said before - check the log in your own eyes. Every person should check himself or herself thoroughly against the scriptures before saying the other person is wrong.
When someone tells you something contrary to your accepted doctrines by quoting the scripture, take a few days or weeks to read your Bible again and again. "Prove all things and hold on to that which is true."

I will repeat one more time your message is more beneficial to those who have a religious organization or denomination as it were to defend and raise high above others.

None of the religious organization as they are constituted today will exist if they didn't receive a prompt and aided somewhere. Yet when they are firmly established they start behaving as if they were set up in heaven and brought down to the earth cheesy grin grin grin

They read in their Bible daily where Paul said he is not a party to I belong to this I belong to that knowing it will bring competition and comparison that will destroy their lives. Here we are in the 21st century.
You're right.

This message is more beneficial and to be directed to those religious organization and denominations having the mindset they are the only way to God. cheesy cheesy grin grin
We are all guilty of thinking "ours is the best way", maybe not the only way but the superior way.

Catholics think all others a wayward.
Protestants think they're not distracted by unnecessary practices of the catholic, and don't do superficial Christianity like the Pentecostals.
Pentecostals think being orthodox means you don't "understand the deep things of the spirit".
Charismatics think all others lack spiritual connections.
JWs think everyone else don't understand the Bible.
All these denominations think if you have a different opinion from their teachings, you've "turned the Bible upside down".

And since we can't even agree on what we believe, how would non-believers take us seriously??

Show the other religious denomination he is criticizing the Jehovah's witnesses for.

The question of the thread is well placed. Jehovah's Witnesses on this thread can just come and bring clarification regarding it but they know it one of their many wolves in sheep clothing ways getting exposed here.
You see, my concern is how we Christians disparage any other denominations apart from ours. We see the others as "they're getting it wrong, they're confused". The greatest achievement of modern Christian leaders today is to divide the body of Christ. So we dislike each other instead of learning from one another.

I've had the opportunity to become member of a number of denominations at different points in time. And I can tell you, every denomination has specific things they're getting right, but important things they're getting wrong. Even JWs.
So whatever one you belong to, you're both right and wrong in many ways, so don't think you're better than others.

I am not criticising a denomination, a thing JWs are notorious for, by the way. They call some denominations ''babylon the great'' and everyone else, they negative word ''christiandom''.
Then you're no different from them.
Christianity EtcRe: Why Do Jws Denounce Infant Baptism When Their Publications Support It? by WeirdAlien: 10:37am On Mar 30, 2025
Remove the log from your eye before complaining about splinter in another person's eye. The fact that you're not JW doesn't mean the doctrines you follow don't have serious flaws you may be blind to.

I am not JW in any way. But to start criticizing a denomination as justification for yours means you don't know what you stand for.

Your question would be a lot better if you ask for opinions about infant baptism, or if you just state your views and respond to others' reactions.
Christianity EtcRe: FOY Urges Church To Honour Gospel Ministers Beyond Money by WeirdAlien: 5:03pm On Mar 29, 2025
Only God can honour you.
Whether you're a pastor or singer or evangelist, you shouldn't be looking for honour or reward from people.
Unless you want to receive your reward on earth and forget about God rewarding you for your work at the end. It's that simple.

Very good, every badly trained kids must be dealt with appropriately. Most of the present day kids that were raised on social media, they lack proper parental guidelines. That was one of them insulting and tearing up a lecturer's cloth because she was making a TikTok video in a lecture hallway. Thankfully, she was expelled. Anyone found culpable here too, will go back home to collect home training from their parents.
-Kiss the truth!
You're talking trash.
