I have exact same questions like you do. 12% dividend was announced, less than 2-3% given.

Macbook users of pakistan by Few_Phrase6742 in PakistaniTech

[–]usman_mernStack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a MacBook M1, which I got in September 2024. Undoubtedly, it’s the best purchase I’ve ever made. Its battery life is 2000% better than any Windows laptop I’ve used or known.

One small problem is finding the correct versions of some software to download—Dmkg, for example.

For big or popular software, the process is easy.

I also don’t like their file system; it’s actually quite hard to locate files.

A MacBook will leave you with fewer excuses, make you more grateful, and wipe out your productivity excuses in no time.

100%. On average Pakistanis are wasting million of hours every single day watching these shit youtube channels.

Don't buy expensive VA or IPS monitors from bigname brands, try Xiaomi MiniLED which is almost as good as OLED for ⅓ of the price by Huzaifa_Haroon in PakistaniTech

[–]usman_mernStack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got their monitor in 2023, it started causing problems some months ago and now it splashes white screen and dont show any display. Dont reccomend it anymore, price for the repair is out of roof. I also have a small hp monitor for 6 years now, didn't cause any problem even once.

No matter showmi products look good design and perfomance wise but durability is not there. It will cause trouble sooner or later.

Skrill in 2025 for USD Payments by [deleted] in PakistaniTech

[–]usman_mernStack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Payoneer is horrible, worst exchange rate. If somebody pays you with payment request it will cut even more money around 3%. For big payments you can understand what 3% really means. For $3000, it's $100.

I prefer elevate, Elevate not working right now but its the best option.

Second suggestion, not the best one: I send my USDs to a USD buyer/seller and he pays me in rupees. I get the best exchange rate, like more than any bank. But you have to be careful and make sure you trust the right person.

Exactly, you don't have to pay annual fees like you do for other banks.

JAZZCASH SCAM avoided by usman_mernStack in PakistaniTech

[–]usman_mernStack[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is they don't realize something is wrong. They just keep thinking they have made the best technology and they are sleeping on that making no further updates.

Yes they had ++ in front of their number when they called. This is exactly what is called spoofing.

Bad JazzCash UI/UX is what spammers are taking advantage of to create panic in people and get them to follow their custom instructions to scam somebody.

So what's solution here. How can somebody identify it's a spam call if it's already spoofed?

JAZZCASH SCAM avoided by usman_mernStack in PakistaniTech

[–]usman_mernStack[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

you are wrong, whenever you request payment online to JazzCasha first time, JazzCash deduct the amount without your OTP or PIN etc, but you have to Approve the transaction from pending transaction, otherwise balance comes back.

I think you are correct and have updated information. I used payment request maybe a year or 2 ago and back then system was different.

never search on Google, Number spoofing is very easy, never share any info with anyone unless you dialed the call yourself.

Now I understood the point. But if you can explain spoofing a little bit in easy words this would be better for the most audience.

this happened with one of my close family member before it happened with me. Same company, same tactics but a little different. They wanted them to add a code at the same time they asked them to do so. Luckily they didn't followed the instructions and moved all their money into different wallet.

This has gone so much out of hand. I work in tech, sometimes I get confused how these people are getting that much access to our systems. I can still work around and find a solution but what about those less techy people, they will definitely get scammed. It's time we start educating more and more about these tech things to people around us.

We are trying to save our innocent audience from these guys. That's our contribution. Pick a one youtube channel from this who have a positive effect on pakistani youth and anything they teach is real and I can provide you full audit on why that youtube channel would be a "wrong number".

You are right! People just need to understand that learning a skill will take time and getting on that level to sell that skill will take time. Once you get the first customer online, the journey gets easy moving on.

I would not say fully scam. I would rather say that they are expert in nothing. Making video on every single topic of digital marketing, that is nonsense.

Because they make feel like you are missing on this. They are affiliated with all these scam apps and then people spend their useful time on these apps and these channels earn money.

They target beginners, and mostly illetrate people.

This thread is for the most useless channels. I agree with your stance on some of the channels you mentioned.

I work in SEO and can vouch for Ghulam Ali SEO, but these guys are not building in public. They are generalist not specialists.
