Maleeq: Riddle me this, but isn't the software bundled in the USB drive already? Why do you need to download it explicitly

Anyway, this is a dated thread.

Sometimes the software on the usb disk get corrupt, if the setup is unable to copy a even a single file for installation, the setup terminate n you'll be unable to use the MODEM unless ofcos you download explicitly and run the setup.

So the topic is now "Accessories you hate seeing on 'Gays'" ba?

Richiy: wat abt if she cn kuk bt nt wat u r usd 2? My uncle married 4rm Kogi nd he taught hs wife to kuk wat he cn eat.fair.

Cooking to me is an art, if she's in touch with the basic then she'd have no problem learning to cook food from other culture.
That why the most important thing I'd look for in a wife is [great cook love to cook].
P.S. If you're with a guy that 'REALLY' loves to cook(the type that would be singing songs while cooking) you're in trouble ooO!

Richiy: all of yu want gals dat cn cook. Am js wonderin if yu knw hw 2 so u cn b a wondaful kitchen asistant.lol.

Even if I'm a chef by profession. I'd never marry a woman who can't cook, that would be a marriage that won't last.

In order of priority
1. Great cook
2. Love to cook
3. Sexually skilled
3. God fearing
4. Non materialistic
5. Fun to be with
6. Sense of style
10. Beautiful

BJ4REEL: Y d HELL will a guy (if sane) use an ear-ring? Very disaproving!

Pretty sure if you could afford a diamond earring, you'd be wearing one.
There's no point hating what you can't afford. :/

berem: Necklace! I despise any guy wearing necklace!

Even gold?? I mean the small cute ones

IMO If you can't do it then there's no love.

Flygeriansteve: And with your kind of grammar, if I was your gf, I'd cheat on you!!

Saw a tweet from someone I follow on twitter asking if it was possible to recover a
file deleted from her recycle bin and one of the replies she received was "FOREVER
GONE!!"

I am writing this to tell you that the file isn't indeed 'FOREVER GONE!!'. Infact it has
gone nowhere.

From my knowledge of the harddisk, files are not erased when they are deleted from
the recycle bin, they are only marked by the Operating System as 'to be written over'
but not erased. New data will be written over these files when there are no other free
space.

Recova is one software that I've tried which worked for me, the software enables
you to recover files that might have been accidentally deleted from your system. You
can download a free version from www.piriform.com/recova/download

Another software that have versions for both Windows and Mac users is 'Data
Recovery'. Others you may want to try are Panda Recovery, TOKIWA Data Recovery
and Undelete Plus.

MRbrownJAY: @OP
BWAAAAAH! funny how you are trying to make it sound like if a person cheats, it is because their partner did/didnt do something.

ok lets get something clear here: the only reason why someone would cheat is because that person is WEAK like that, no other reason.
people can package their weakness however they want, the sad fact is that there is no reason under the moon why a person should cheat, NONE!!!!

if your partner does something that makes you "look for solace elsewhere", then you should DUMP that partner first, and then go find solace elsewhere, not the way around.

What if you both are married?

While I'm aware that cheating is hardcoded into the DNA of some individuals, some persons engage in practices that causes their Significant Other to seek solace elsewhere.

What do you think are the things that people do or don't do which pushes their partners to cheat?

sum1else told me 25k. Ow abt 4 tokunbo?

I need an hp 6735s motherboard. Pls reply with spec and prices.

Blackberry incompatibility.

Tgirl4real: Good thinking, but she still in the wrong for smashing the fone. Means she isn't matured and have anger issues.

Yeah! Two wrongs don't make a right, but anger can cause you to do things. I'd tender an apology because my actions caused her to react ~albeit wrongly~.

Emmy9ite: Some of those girls dont even know the meaning of fiance,they think it is some1 that works in the ministry of finance

Word on the mobile street is that Blackberry 10 devices would be released armed with 1.5GHz dual cord processor.

This would actually land Blackberry 10 devices on the same speed range with the likes of Samsung Galaxy SII, Sony Xperia S, HTC One S and LG Nitro HD, these devices are in the 4th place in the list of fastest processor ~mobile phone category~.

Smartphones in 1st place are LG Optimus 4X HD and HTC One X, which both possess an impressive 1.5GHz Quad core processor. *sighs*

I believe marriage is a partnership, and in a partnership decisions are made by parties involved.

If I were to buy a BB phone against the approval of my wife and she discovered that am chatting with my ex and breaks the phone, I'd still apologise to her.

Recently, I've started to notice an increasing trend of chicks calling a guy that hasn't yet proposed 'My Fiancé'.
What is really happening here? I thought a chick only get to call a guy her Fiancé after he puts a ring on it?

A man walked into a pet shop and was looking at the animals on display.

While he was there, another customer walked in and went over to a cage at the side of the shop and took out a monkey.

The shopkeeper fits a collar and leash, handed it to the customer, saying, ''That'll be N50,000.''

The customer paid and walked out with his monkey.

Startled, the man went over to the shopkeeper and said, ''That was a very expensive monkey. Most of them are only a few hundred naira. Why did it cost so much?''

The shopkeeper answered, ''Ah, that monkey can program in C - very fast, tight code, no bugs, well worth the money.''

The man looked at the monkey in another cage. ''That one's even more expensive - N100,000! What does it do?''

''Oh, that one's a C++ monkey; it can manage object-oriented programming, Visual C++, even some Java. All the really useful stuff,'' said the shopkeeper.

The man looked around for a little longer and saw a third monkey in a cage of its own. The price tag around its neck read N500,000.

He gasped to the shopkeeper, ''That one costs more than all the others put together! What on earth does it do?''

The shopkeeper replied, ''Well, I don't actually know, but the other two called him boss.''

Browsing porn sites
These sites have a higher probability of harming your computer. Virus/Trojan haven.

Facebooking/Tweeting/Pinging/Texting/Nairalanding/etc while on a date or just hanging out with friends or family.

Abeg make una follow post picture of Daddy Showkey.

They haven't even started drilling the oil and they are already talking about new salary for their traditional leader. Oil that can't even serve a single filling station. That just goes a long way to show how greedy SOME of these northerners truly are.

Just an highlight of various things we do innocently, sometimes out of laziness, that have far reaching effects than we imagine

1. Using a password for multiple accounts
If you're like me that's involved in lots of online activities like social networking, online forums, blogging or you just own gadgets that requires a password, chances are that you use a similar password for one or more of your accounts. The bad thing about this is that once someone gets hold of your password then all the accounts you use the password to access will be compromised.

2. Not logging out of a public computer
You're checking your mail in a cafe and just when you're about to log out your time expires and the system locks you out, so you stand up and walk away hoping the next customer would log you out. I don't even need to highlight the damages this could cause you. Also saving your credentials on a public system is not a good idea.

3. Not updating your Antivirus Frequently
Countless harmful computer viruses are being created every single day and the only sure way to keep your computer safe is updating your system's antivirus with the latest update file to enable it recognise the signature of the latest threats. By the way, it's high time the replace that 2010 version of antivirus you're using.

4. Installing Anything and Everything on your system
We all want our laptops or desktops to be 'fully loaded' not thinking about the consequences. The more softwares you install, the higher the chances of your system slowing down ~slower boot time, slower disk read time~, chances of getting a currupt registry and also making your system more vulnerable to viruses and spywares that maybe embedded in some softwares.

The list goes on and on...

GAR3TH: So a company should be forced to hire someone just because they are from the area? What ever happen to qualifications, merits, years experiences, Education level, Job expertise, Licensing etc. So we should just hire 20 people no questions asked? Since when do you blackmail a company to hire you? What about those factories in lagos or anambra that make billions of dollars a year. so they should hire you just because your a local? seriously...

It is not a company's responsibility to help the unemployed, that the governments responsibility. I still dont understand why many Niger Deltans have so much hatred towards oil companies when they should focus that hatred toward the government and force them to develop the area. That way you can create jobs but also grow a diverse economy made up of different industries, instead off everyone focusing on one "oyel" industry.

do you think that if they had made all these things you mentioned(qualifications, merits, years experiences, Education level, Job expertise, Licensing etc) the criteria for Nigerians getting their independence we would be where we are today?

Think with your brain, how are the parent going to train their wards in school(uni) with little or no income coming farms that has been rendered infertile because of oil exploration or the sale of fishes that have become extinct due to oil spillage. Even after scaling all these hurdles to become a qualified graduate, you tell them they aint employable in a company that literally kills them? Tell what other defination is there of wickedness.

P.S. WTF is 'years experiences' and 'Education level'?

Sagamite: Products of a failed education system.

Chevron should employ these kinds of cretins my arse!

Coming from an educated illiterate. Your only educational achievement is that you know how to construct a sentence that contains 'cretins' and 'arse'
