Apple's Iphone 11 Pro Max vs Samsung's Galaxy S20 Ultra

Image
I know I promised you guys this post so here it is. Around February, Samsung released the long talked about s20 series and its face, the s20 Ultra, has been every good as expected. Now, some people claim Apple’s IPhone 11 pro max, can give the s20 Ultra a run for its money. Well, I’m here to set those doubts straight. PRICE:   If you thought the iPhone 11 Pro Max was expensive, the Galaxy S20 Ultra's price tag puts Apple's to shame. At $1,399 for the base configuration of the S20 Ultra with 128GB of storage and 12GB of RAM, Samsung's flagship demands a $300 premium over the cheapest version of the iPhone 11 Pro Max with 64GB of storage. Is $300 worth double the base storage? You could argue that it is, considering you'd have to pay another $149 to get 256GB of storage in the iPhone — driving up the price to $1,249. Even then, you don't have the ability to expand that further with a micro SD card on Apple's phone. Still, most people are going to look

The Many Facets of Rape

Image
Dear readers, So, I had a Civic Education class today and we debated about what we thought had led to such an influx of rape cases lately. Some of us were of the opinion that it was due to the fact that the authorities were busy dealing with COVID cases that there were opportunities for people to rape and be raped. We continued talking but after it all, I realized that there were so many undiscussed things about rape that people needed to be informed about. So this post is more of a lesson than our usual one-sided discussion. Firstly, rape is two-sided. That is, both males and females can be raped. So let’s discard that illusion that only females are raped. Okay, let’s get started. 1.       There is absolutely no reason whatsoever for rape. A lot of rape perpetrators give the excuse that they were misled by the females attire or dressing. Though it’s on the part of the woman to dress responsibly especially as she’s socializing in public, her indecent dressing is no excuse to

Pot of Dying Culture Stew

“Xiu Ying, you’re running late for the ceremony!” “Ohmigods, Mom I don’t even want to go for the stupid ceremony” “Young lady, this ‘stupid ceremony’ has been in your family for over 10 generations! Have some respect” “I bet in the next ten years, this stupid ceremony won’t even exist.” “What did you say?!” “Nothing.”         ************************************************************************************************************* Dear readers,  This is an example of the fast disintegration of culture in the race to fit in with this ‘New Age’. There was once a time when we were all proud of who we were and what we represented but in the bid to be number 1 everywhere we discard our personalities and become shadows of shadows. I read an article about this and something there really struck me: Cultural diversity is the quality of diverse or different cultures, as opposed to monoculture, the global monoculture, or a homogenization of cultures, akin to cultural decay.

Fortnite Top 10 Tips

1.   Fall only in known locations The game map is quite wide, and there are resources for everyone, and very few users usually go to certain areas of the map. So try to avoid crowded places like Ciudad Comercio or Pisica Picados, to go to other quieter places such as Señorío de la Sal or Alameda Aullante, because there are a lot of chests that you can also collect and then go to more interior areas and finish the game. And the rookies only usually go to the busiest places being easy prey for veterans. 2.   Not knowing how to read the scenario The rookie player always usually makes the mistake of moving through the stages without paying close attention to the environment. When you have been in the game for many hours, you will understand why a certain structure has been built, whether someone has passed through it or not, or if there may be an ambush nearby. That is why you must read the terrain to know if you are in a dangerous or virgin area that no one has passed through dur
