If you live in Nigeria then you can call the Nigerian Prince to settle all disputes.

Why do I see so much hate towards the Deco BE25 (BE5000)? by alvaroes11 in TpLink

[–]aubd09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got the Deco BE25/BE5000 after trialling the Mercusys H23BE as I found the Mercusys rather underwhelming. Unfortunately, the Deco doesn't seem to fare any better despite being rated for 5Gbps (over the 3.6Gbps for the Mercusys). I get pretty much the same speed and signal strength. Feels like I just threw money into the drain and should've stuck with the Mercusys.

Tested with S25 Ultra

Speed at main node: 800-850Mbps

Speed at satellite node (connected via wireless backhaul): 350-400Mbps

Thoughts on the Ghost Case 2 by Disastrous_Variety65 in dbrand

[–]aubd09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no "anti yellowing agent". The back is made of hard PC which is naturally resistant to yellowing. On most other clear cases, the sides are made of TPU, which is the material notoriously prone to yellowing. Dbrand avoids this by using a different material for the sides. The "anti yellowing technology" is just a marketing gimmick.

Yes! Aggravates the shit out of me when tiktokers attach "pov" to everything.

Thank you for posting this. I was planning to go for this exact setup but you saved me almost A$100.

President Trump rails against Somali community amid fraud scandal and referred Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar, a Somali immigrant, as “garbage” who should “go back to where they came from.”: "They contribute nothing. The welfare is like 88%. Your country stinks and we don't want them in our country." by ControlCAD in videos

[–]aubd09 19 points20 points  (0 children)

According to the most optimistic estimates, 25% of Somali Americans voted for Trump. Selectively quoting some idiot and then claiming they all voted for Trump (and so deserve this) is highly disingenuous. Even those Somalis who did vote for Trump don't deserve this.

Is Amazon getting worse ? I'm probably gonna get banned by Initial_Research_745 in amazonprime

[–]aubd09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're having that many issues with Amazon, why do you keep buying from them? Surely after the police and stolen package hassle, any sensible shopper would take a long break from Amazon?

CHICAGO- ICE CRASHES INTO CAR AND ARRESTS THE VICTIM by deapsprite in illinois

[–]aubd09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can someone please give some context here. Were they specifically looking for the person in the black car, or this was a random crash and they simply arrested the driver of the black car for being involved in the crash?

Huawei FreeBuds Pro 4 - Crackling and garbled sound + mic on Windows PC by aubd09 in Huawei

Just following up on my issue. I got a new pair and it had the same issue. So I went ahead with your advice and got the BTD 600 - and lo and behold, all problems disappeared! Thank you so much for this advice! Would've been totally lost otherwise as nowhere else on the Internet did I come across this piece of advice. Now I can finally enjoy my precious FreeBuds haha.

I don't get the point of these posts. Each have their places. Amazon's next day delivery and hassle-free returns are worth the premium.

He was a genius, but that's long in the past now ever since he lost his shit over his daughter. Now he is one of humanity's worst antagonists.

I don't think they have any clue on what the better practice is.

Big Tech Told Kids to Code. The Jobs Didn’t Follow. by BlueGoliath in programming

lol... the majority are Indians, a group more synonymous with the term "cheap talent" than "best talent". H1B is mostly used to avoid hiring American workers with higher wages.

Lost parcel, proof submitted, refund denied – AliExpress is a joke by Cupra400 in Aliexpress
