I'm running a full XFCE4 Linux desktop environment using Termux, Termux: X11(GUI) and Debian as a PRoot container to run native desktop apps like VS Code and Chromium on my phone! Crazy right?😅 I also bought a keyboard kit to improve my coding experience for the better😌

🇨🇮 Yan Diomandé’s letter to his sister through @PlayersTribune: “Dear Roxane, Remember when someone bought me a fake United shirt, and I wrote “Ronaldo 7” on the back with a black Sharpie? We didn’t know what rich or poor was. We only knew happiness. Remember the 25 people sleeping in just one house back in Abidjan? Mom wanted to watch her soap operas. Everyone wanted to watch movies. Remember how I’d always pretend I was asleep and then sneak to the TV room after midnight? I’d turn the TV way down low. Like, just two volume bars. I’d watch soccer in the dark and dream. Remember when the grown-ups saw me playing soccer on the dirt and gave me the nickname “Roberto Carlos” because of how hard I kicked? And remember how I secretly got so mad about it, because CR7 was my idol? Remember when I went to play so far from home? I was 9 years old. Inter Foot Sud Comoé, way out near the border with Ghana. Just a little boy all alone. I don’t know if I ever told you this story, but me and the other kids used to go to the village and steal potatoes because we were so hungry. We called it a “bank heist.” Two kids would distract the shop owner, and the other 18 would run off with two potatoes. They weren’t even good. But they tasted amazing. Hahahah. Even today, it’s my favorite thing to eat. Boiled potatoes with a little oil. It takes me back to those times. Remember when I got my first real pair of cleats, and I slept with them? Growing up, I always played in those white plastic sandals. Even when I go back home now, I still play in them. It’s our tradition. Remember when I’d come back home, and you’d tell my neighborhood friends: “Why’d you stop training? Yan’s not gonna buy you cars. You gotta keep working.” You were 10 years old, and you were already my agent. Remember how we’d sit and dream about moving to France? How we’d go shopping, have our own apartment, and I’d be a rich soccer player, with cars and a big house, and you wouldn’t have to worry about anything. You were the one who always believed I could be the next Cristiano, when everyone else was laughing. Remember when I moved to the United States for high school, at 15 years old, and I missed home so much? For months, I couldn’t understand what anyone was saying. They sat me next to a French boy, and he’d try to translate everything the teacher said. Remember when I called you and said: “You won’t believe it, the kids here argue with the teachers.” Back home, you know, we wouldn’t even dare blink at our elders. Remember when I couldn’t believe the boys smoked after school? You used to say it felt like I was in an American TV show. Remember when they took me for trials at Bournemouth? At Chelsea, Rangers, Olympiacos, Crystal Palace? Eze and Olise came up to me after a training session and said: “Hey, kid, you’re really good.”… but even then, they didn’t sign me. Even the MLS B teams didn’t want me. I didn’t even know why. They never gave me a reason. The adults handled everything. They just kept taking me all over Europe, and everyone kept saying no. My visa expired. My dream was over. They sent me back to Africa, and we cried together. You were the only one who never stopped believing. A few weeks later, I signed with Leganés, and we cried different tears. That was back when I still had emotions. Now, I don’t feel anything. It’s like I’m not even human. Since you died, I’m just empty.”

@mrbayoa1 😂😂😂

The referee became a totally different person after the first half, giving all decisions to PSG and waving away Arsenal’s clear penalty. I have never seen any officiating as bad as that. I hope someone like him never gets to referee Arsenal match again.

I'm working on an open-source Canva alternative. I designed this poster with it.

@EzekielCrrypt 😂😂😂

We Igbo devs when we first discovered there is "import" and "export" in coding.

This is what happens when someone confuses their paycheck with their talent. $5K/month in Nigeria is ₦8M+. The average senior dev salary in Africa doesn't touch that not because of skill, but because of currency, geography, and a market you chose to be ignorant about. You didn't post an unpopular opinion. There's a saying: when you're winning in life, don't assume those who aren't winning aren't working hard enough. That saying was made for takes like this. "Go start a farm" some of the hardest-working people on this planet are farmers. That's not the insult you think it is.

Same birthday, same bond. forever linked. Celebrating life with the woman who gave me mine. Happy birthday to mother and son.❤️🥰🎉

@oku_yungx 😂😂😂😂

As she talk ‘NO’, na once I enter bathroom wash the draw draw wey Dey my penis.

@_Annonnymouss_ Well said boss🙌🏽

Frontend developers, we need to talk. I’ve seen codebases, reviewed tasks, and worked with enough people to notice a pattern. Some of y’all are blocking your own blessings and don’t even know it. Here’s what’s quietly keeping you stuck 🧵

@iammSunnyBoss 😂😂

You are right bro, don’t listen to this people they are ignoring the fact that she mentors and help other women make millions too Cos we need more women to make 500M and dress like this on stage once she reach 1B Naira Make she no wear anything again Me, I won’t be concerned

The older I get, the more I notice something… intelligent people are polite to everyone. But they trust almost no one.

i genuinely have no desire to be rich so i can buy a rolex or a Lamborghini. i want to be rich so i can control my time and go to the gym at 3pm on a monday. sit at a cafe and relax for an hour on a rainy afternoon. so i can cook meals at home with fresh ingredients. spend on my family and friends without worrying about a budget. that's my idea of a rich life, not the fake consumerist idea shoved down my throat.

@TheBlueDodger I'm pretty positive the higher ups asked for Jorgensen to be played more so his market price would go up come summer

Quality primary education in developed places are free. Paying N2m for a private primary education is a personal luxury. To begin the top 1% in Nigeria, you need to earn N500k monthly. We are that poor. Every child deserves good education inspite of the limitation of privilege
