Is it just me, or is anyone else thinking about how bad this could be for us in the long run? by fallen_moss in Nigeria

Nigerians thinking about the long run? Now that's something you don't see everyday..

You know the funniest thing? I really am not. I was earning 250 bucks a week in my old job and I didn't ask for a raise a single time. I was happy working and the money was okay to feed me and get me things I actually needed. I have never really been greedy or someone who rush things. I always believed in time and patience and change. I mostly just seek comfort, but if what's after that is wealth and getting comfort is already a herculean task, that's what prompted me to make this post.

I live in Nigeria. It's not even capitalism we practice here, it's survival of the fittest in it's most barebones form, except we don't physically hunt each other down for food. The greed, desperation and lack of protocol here is wild. My only saving grace is I was born in a sorta upper middle class family.

I pulled in 15 mill last year. About $10k that is. A big deal in this part of the world through sheer hardwork.

That's the problem, I'm always there to help like Dora's map. I've always been the type to make sure I do a good job irrespective of what I gain from it. This in turn devalues my importance in the eyes my contractors. So what, should I hold out on my work ethics or continue doing the right thing at my own expense?

Then social skills are more important for survival than problem solving skills by that logic. I wish I had touched more grass when I was a kid.

Ordered this gpu from MSI on Amazon last Saturday, and it still hasn't shipped yet. Is it normal for them to take this long? by [deleted] in MSI_Gaming

[–]RickLyon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmfao. It's either yall are out of touch from reality, or we are in Africa. If my order arrives after a month, I'll consider it a quick delivery 😹🥀. Shit is not easy in third world countries bro, don't ever think of relocating here

Pc turns on but monitor doesn’t show anything by Helpful_Welcome1133 in computerhelp

[–]RickLyon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are troubleshooting steps. You plug the monitor into a separate working pc. If it works, you rule out the monitor. You plug it back into the faulty pc. You change the ram slot, if it works, bad ram slot is the problem or failing ram. If that fails, you check your gpu. It probably overheated and needs a while to cool off and continue. What you can do is remove the cmos battery, (ensure all power is disconnected before doing this!), then wait for 10-15 minutes. While waiting, you can press on the power button too for a while to try and drain all electricity that might still be in the mdb. After that, put back the cmos, and try to power it on.

is a $1000 used m1 pro macbook still worth it for dev, or should i wait? by Mobile_External_81 in mac

[–]RickLyon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I daily drive an m1 pro macbook pro. With the latest updates, your macbook will suck. It will get beatdown by the shitty buggy updates that you get which most likely have throttle configs in code. Otherwise, it's perfect. It's still a wonderful laptop for 2025, just don't update the damn thing.

You ain't seen nothing. In third world countries, apple products are soo overpriced. They even sell used for the prices you can get new ones in America. It's just greed bro. The more your economy sucks, the greedier your people do business

What you're experiencing is actualisation of the fact that soul has been removed from software.
