Blacks are simply angry because, in the restrooms at Walmart, when they try to wash their hands, the automatic sensors under the water dispensers don't work, because they don't see black.

Cool

Is it just me or everyone else because, i fine this statement amusingly racist, not cool. It is a serious matter here.

I'm not quite sure of the statistics and should it be true, it's notable that, everyone are prone to crime given the right circumstances. It's true over time, blacks have developed some aggressive nature and seem to be often angry at each other and other populace but not if your family.
If your family, you would fine out that there is really love among blacks. The hate blacks feel is a long term planted seed of hate that is being passed down to the next generations.
I haven't read any article that says, Melanin alters or affects reasoning! I wonder if anyone has come across that because, I'll so love to update my knowledge on the issue. Some reorientation needs to be done and it's best at the family level. After all, the family is the basic unit if a society just as the cell is the basic unit of life. A community is only as strong as it's weakest link. If you feel blacks are a weak link when it comes to the matter of peaceful coexistence, help them build a better nature.
Let's build a better world for everyone and advocate peace in our daily existence.
Thank you.

Our perception to our line of thought is basically aligned to what we are used to, what we've learned over the years since our childhood. No doubt you can have a change in believe and it takes quite a greater force or orientation to change an already developed concept of believe.
You never can fully tell, until your directly involved.
5026  Other / Politics & Society / Re: true egyptian pharaohs and gods where not humanlike on: July 22, 2020, 08:56:30 AM
they where true human/animal hybrids like anubis,

people nowadays are so blinded by humanism they still think the egyptians that enslaved the jews looked like humans and not like human/animal hybrids

people should take statues like this one from the pharaoh anubis more serious



https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anubis

For a fact, we are entitled to our own believes and it doesn't makes us wrong or right. To me, I say it's a status with a mask as motivated by the sculpture or whom ever contracted the sculpture. The evolutionary trend as per variation is just too much.
If it were to be as presented, how will that thing communicate? Given that the vocal cord is directly at the throat and determines the words that proceeds out of our mouth. It can keep barking at it's subject...
Again, in the matter of love, I just wonder what it's going to look like.

One true fact about motivation is that, it always needs a mentor or a friendly reminder. That particular thing, idea or person that keeps the bell jingling in your head and makes you want to keep pushing. Sometimes it asked you questions like:
1. Is that what your mentor did
2. Is that how he/she managed this kind of challenge
3. How does he view challenging situations
4. What would he/she have done in this case
5. Why must I stop or continue...

And more questions of that nature. Your better motivated when you've got the willingness to succeed.
5029  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Are you an asset or liability? on: July 22, 2020, 12:57:53 AM

So what are you, an asset or liability?


At first when I saw this topic, I had to ask myself:
1. Can someone really be a liability to himself or herself
2. Can someone be an asset?

After going through the piece of literature, I knew then that we are all from the womb of one forum (Bitcointalk) and that the forum owns us all.
Hence, your content places you in either category and I'll say, choose to learn first and everything else will add.
Be an asset and not a liability.

1. You can just click quote and delete the text you don't want to appear in your quote.

2. On the bottom left of this thread you'll see a "move link" which can be used to move a topic. Alternatively, if you forget you can ask on your thread how to move it or report the thread and as a mod to move it.

Well said in simple terms and explanation. Unfortunately, I need all the text in this one but, I'll experiment them soon. Very helpful.
5031  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Little testimony on achievement. on: July 22, 2020, 12:28:38 AM
A good thing about testimonies on achievements is that it helps the next person even more than it helps you. You automatically become a motivator, not only to those who are below you in rank or above you in rank or in your line of work but, for all those with a need to improve, those with a need to start something and keep it rolling.
Testimonies build the 'i can do it mindset' for both the testifier and the one who happens to have heard or read of it. A lot of good stuff can come up from testimonies and so I'm saying,
If you've got something to do, take a step, walk the path, learn from your errors, persevere and you'll surely testify.
5032  Other / Beginners & Help / Ask questions and get Answers on: July 22, 2020, 12:12:21 AM
As a newbie and perhaps, a few of you who might have grown in rank, this field is for you. Clearly there is a lot of topics and a lot more keep coming up everyday but, I've got questions too to ask on the some of the difficulty I face which some of you might be facing too about navigating this forum. You can't go ahead and ask whatever question you like under any topic, it seems out of context and so, you just don't know whom or where to ask. Hence your stock!
Well this field is to do justice to that. To ask and answer questions that just might not apply to most topics on the page and get answers from experienced pros.
Here are a few that have been bothering me;

1. If I want to quote a particular part, just a portion of concern from a forum members post, how do I go about it?
2. If I did create a topic and maybe posted it in the wrong field for example, I started a topic in the off-topic section instead of the Beginners & help section. How do I go about correcting that?

More questions would I ask as I encounter any difficulty.
Hope someone says something soon. Thanks.

SOURCE/ORIGIN OF COVID19


You are simply describing the Coronavirus in general. What you are describing fits a whole family of viruses, including the common cold. Therefore, it is not know who has Covid and who doesn't.

More importantly, the identification of Covid by the Chinese was lacking. Not only didn't they filter the extracted fluids properly, but they intentionally set the fluids up to build exosomes - little chunks of RNA - which are made by the cells, and can't be determined to be part of a virus or not.

Identification of Covid is way off base and known to be flawed.

Cool

This is new to me and calls for more research. I like this, very encouraging and challenging. How about dropping a link to the piece of literature so I can update my knowledge on the topic, it would be really helpful. Nice one.
5034  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Don't buy facemasks for the coronavirus! on: July 20, 2020, 10:56:55 PM
Facemask are advocated to be worn mainly in public places hence, it might not serve much in filtration but it discourages taking through which contaminants can be freely introduced into the environment.
Undoubtedly, it has certain adverse effect when the proper face mask isn't sort out for and used in guidelines with health safety measures.
Facemask cannot only prevent the pandemic but also assist in it's spread if not used carefully. The coronavirus is known to persist on inanimate things not excluding the so called face mask hence, it can harbor the virus.
Corona virus attacks the respiratory track hence, extensive use of facemask can result in suffocation and more.
Eat healthy food, choose safe practices and choose life.
Stay safe.

SOURCE/ORIGIN OF COVID19

The specific origin of Covid19 is not yet known, though, scientist and researchers continue to search, experiment and update the bulk of information on the pandemic to better understand and postulate useful theories on how to tackle it’s menace. The term covid19 has acquired a global recognition due to it’s impact of which it continues to make until this day on every nation of the world.
It is of note that Corona virus affected the world first in the year 2002(3) as a Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (SARS and MERS) before taking it’s present form as Covid19 which was first noticed December 2019 in Wuhan, China. It is classified to belong to the genus Beta Corona virus of zoonotic origin (that is, a disease of animal origin and can be transferred  to humans).

STRUCTURE/NATURE OF COVID19
Coronavirus (Covid19) is a Ribonucleic acid virus with a crown structure having a concave on one side and a diameter of about 60-140nm. It has been known to affect mainly the respiratory track.

INFECTION PATHWAY
Coronavirus (Covid19) is a communicable disease that can easily be transferred from person to person through it’s agents. The virus is air and water borne and it’s not easily detected in a person. The virus is contained in an infected persons saliva and other respiratory droplets from coughing, sneezing and exhaling. We get in contact with this virus when an infected persons coughs, sneeze or exhale directly into our face, touching or sharing surfaces or objects with an infected person. The virus enters the body through openings such as the nasal cavity, eyes and mouth then, it replicates and create copies of itself. It shows severity amongst the elderly, aged 55years and above patients and those that have diseases such as hypertension, pulmonary disease, coronary heart disease amongst others. It can be detected through a nasal swab.

RETENTION TIME ON SURFACES
Droplets on inanimate surfaces from an infected patient containing corona virus is estimated to persist for about 9days though, it’s object and exposure specific. It is advocated to properly clean and sterilize contaminant  with detergent or antiseptic soap and water or with an alcohol based sterilizer before use.

SIGNS/SYMPTOMS OF INFECTION
The signs and symptoms of the disease is very tricky as it takes a close resemblance with the regular diseases. Some of it’s most common signs and symptoms includes;

1.   Dry cough
2.   Sore throat
3.   Chest pain
4.   Shortness of breath
5.   Tiredness
6.   Fever, etc.

These symptoms are often observed in about 4-6 days of infection. It is advised you seek medical attention upon discovery.

TREATMENT
A permanent solution as per treatment is a work in progress though, some drugs such as chloroquine, hydroxychloroquine, favilavir amongst others have proven some positive results with little side effect.

PREVENTIVE MEASURES
One of the best way to tackle Covid19 is to maintain a high level of immune system. Others includes;
1.   Practice of social distancing by giving/staying at least 1metre apart from a patient or an individual.
2.   Wash your hands regularly with antiseptic soap and flowing water and rub an alcohol based sanitizer.
3.   Avoid touching your face (Nose, eyes and mouth).
4.   Cover your mouth with an arc-curved elbow while coughing, sneezing and exhaling.
5.   Avoid crowded areas and put on a face mask in public places.
6.   Avoid eating too much fried or baked food, smoking and other activities that weakens the lungs.

EFFECTS SO FAR
Due to the detrimental impact of the Covid19 across all nations, it is currently one of the most recognized term and disease in the world. A lot of steps is/are been put in place to ensure control on it’s spread but still, it continues to persist and make impacts on our daily life’s. It has impacts on;

1.   Lifestyle: People have to adjust almost every part of their daily routine to fit in as per food and indoor style of living. A lot of persons where kept away from the spotlight.
2.   Economy: The productivity rate of all nation’s of the world drop due to the lockdown or indoor lifestyle adopted to it’s citizens and reduced importation. Hence, tourism, trading and mass production which did boost the economy of many nations dropped.
3.   Sports: Sporting activities virtually requires a lot of crowd and body touching hence, it was/is put to halt to reduce the spread of Covid19.
4.   Transportation: Movement was completely halt especially at the borders, inter-communal roads, streets amongst others where shut down and access to places and goods where/is difficult.
5.   Food scarcity/Inflation: Production was reduced due to in accessibility of producers, business owners, factory workers etc to their place of function hence, food/goods available became limited and at an inflated price rate. Demand and supply relationship.

LOCAL PERCEPTION
It is surprising and of note that some individuals still believe or conceive the idea that the Covid19 pandemic is unreal and a plot by those in power to exploit the nation’s and acquire wealth. This makes me wonder if the credibility of the news houses across the globe is in doubt or the statistics from various organizations saddled with the responsibility of safe guiding and maintaining public health isn’t judiciously carry out there function! The irony of the whole issue is, most people don’t believe because they haven’t seen or experienced it first hand yet, they wish and pray to never come in contact with such disease. How or why then do you doubt?
Covid19 is very real and dangerous at that. Let us all endeavor to follow safety guidelines and never fail to share beneficial information to all.

It obvious that some newbies are interested in joining campaign instead of studying to know or to learn the rudiments of making quality post on its own.
Many begginers are involves in plagiarism in order to earn merits and speed up activities to join  quick campaign that will enrich them.
It come to my understanding through my observations that many newbies in the forum are already existing member of the forum because a begginer who has no base find it difficult to be merited why someone that created account today before three day will be merited without quality post.
I know vividly that many will react to this post negatively in order to bring me down.

Am only here to learn things I don't know
And anyone who like me can merit me when I make post that interest you.



Believe me, people are entitled to their opinions. Besides, negative comments and critics are also needed in the quest of perfection. The point is in how you respond to the comments you get not minding the type.
It's of note that this menace from plagiarism is observed in the forum but then, noted victims are often treated squarely and once you've been there, your sure to learn a lesson.
Also, I associate this act to improper research and an eagerness to rank up at all cost in the least possible time.
And I trust the forum is better prepared to handle the issue. I would also love to add that a topic can not be completely treated as we are prone to new ideas everyday.
Stay safe.

In line with the thread, my head is up.
Racism
It's one of the most familiar term in our world today and very commonly applied to the coloured population. It is wrong, so wrong to be little people based on the content of their skin. Science tells us variation is the beauty of life. Beauty is a thing to be idolized not criticized. Why should we even judge, I mean, every person in the world has a brain with the potential of conceiving and bringing to perfection ideas that could better the world for every one, keyword 'every one'. It's most utmost importance that we don't segregate and propagate the seed of hatred towards one another.
We all belong to the same specie, share the same values and suffer the same thing. Here is a pandemic in our world and we are all in on the effect to our communal and private life's as a specie not race. Racism has an effect on a person's mind and thought pattern which can be in the form of a motivating or depression factor depending on the individuals perspective but then, it propagates the seed of hate.
Let's continue to say no to racism and build a better world for all.
Stay safe.

Pointy fingers they say always point four back at you!
Yes, the possibility is their but, it remains what it is which is a rumor without any proof.
Yes, he might has made comments on several occasions on population and the possibility of a pandemic such as we have this day but these doesn't make him guilty just untill it's a proven fact. It almost feels like being rich and making certain utterances makes you a criminal.
Bill Gate is a software developer as we all know, which makes him familiar with statistics which is a measure tool in population analysis amongst others and with the resources at his disposals possibly just might have conducted researches and predict the obvious as we have this day. I mean, people forecast natural disasters such as earthquakes, flooding and others and are still not guilty!
Even as we continue to examine the possibility, our energy and resource right now should be focused on finding a permanent solution and then bringing the culprit or culprits to justice later, if any. Let's spread the news on Corona virus not being fictitious and prevent further casualties.

So true. That's to tell you that their is two sides to a disaster. Their is always the side that seems to suffer a lot and the sides that converts the circumstances as an opportunity to Accumulate wealth. Though disasters remains undesirable and very discomforting, ensuring that the masses suffer less, providing and coordinating relieve funds and materials plays a vital role to better tackle the situation.
