Afai o oe o se afafine poo se atalii o le Atua, tusa poo le a le faaosooosoga e feagai ma oe, o le fatu a le Atua I totonu ia te oe e fesoasoani e te manumalo ai. O tagata e fai mai ua faaolaina ae o loo fiafia pea i le agasala, e le o moni le faaolaina. O le agasala e tuueseina ai le tagata mai le Atua ma avea i latou ma tagata ua pulea faaletulafono e satani (2Timoteo 2:26). Afai o loo e soifua pea i le agasala, e tatau ona e tagi atu i le Atua mo lana faaolataga e aveesea le fatu o le agasala ae suia i le fatu a le Atua. E suia e le Atua tagata faatuatua mai le malò o le pogisa i le malo o le malamalama (Kolose 1:13) ma ia faafouina i latou i vaega uma.

O lana upu e sili ona maai i lō le pelu e faatau maai ona itu ma e mafai ona faamasino I manatu ma filifiliga a le loto o le tagata ae lei avea ma galuega faatino (Eperu 4:12). O kerisiano latou te faataga le upu a le Atua e nofo i totonu o I latou (Kolose 3:16) e mafai ona manumalo e tetee I faaosoosoga ma le agasala. O le agasala o gaoioiga a le pogisa, ae o le Upu a le Atua e aumai ai le malamalama ma le iloa (Salamo 119:130). O le iloa o le Upu a le Atua e faapoto ai oe ma mataala, e mafai ai ona e iloa tulaga lamatia e te ‘alo ma lafi mai ai (Faataoto 22:3). Na iloa e Iosefa le amioleaga i le manaoga o le toalua a Potifara ma sa ia tamoe ese (Kenese 39:12).

Episode 228: "Lagos 2 Crazy"In this episode of Submarine and A Roach, Nigeria's funniest podcast and Nigeria's #1 comedy podcast, hosts Tmt and Koj are joined by the exceptionally talented Ua.x—a singer, songwriter, performer, dancer, producer, director, filmmaker, and one of Nigeria's top location scouts.The episode kicks off with a discussion on mental health, framed as a transactional process where individuals accumulate "mental health points" on good days to utilize during challenging times.Koj presents his "Premise of the Week," asserting that religion is inherently transactional and expressing fatigue over the pretense that it isn't. This leads to a conversation about how many perceive God's existence through answered prayers or explicit denials, noting that the silence accompanying unanswered prayers can challenge one's faith. Koj humorously mentions wishing he had witnessed King Belshazzar's feast, where a divine hand appeared, as such an event would have solidified his faith unequivocally.The discussion naturally transitions to the scorching Lagos heat, humorously likened to hell. Tmt shares an anecdote about narrowly avoiding an accident, only to realize he had swerved to miss a Rolls Royce, prompting immediate regret.The hosts then delve into a captivating conversation with the recently married Ua.x, who recently released a video for his single "Lagos2Crazy." Ua.x recounts how the song came to him during a serene walk in Abuja amidst the pandemic, contrasting with Lagos's typical chaos. He also directed Burna Boy's latest music video for "Update," leading to a discussion about his journey in the Nigerian music industry.Koj and Ua.x reminisce about their university days, recalling their early music collaborations. Koj fondly remembers providing Ua.x with a pirated version of Final Cut Pro just before Ua.x ventured into video production—a journey that has now led him to direct a video for Koj's personal G.O.A.T.Ua.x candidly discusses his directorial journey, acknowledging the on-the-job learning curve and the humble beginnings of his initial productions. Musically, he credits Styl-Plus for inspiring his desire to create music and P-Square's "Game Over" album for fueling his passion for dynamic performances.Tmt shares his experience attending a St. Patrick's Day celebration in Lagos, sparking a conversation about the similarities between the Nigerian, Irish, and Ivorian flags. This leads to a humorous debate about alcohol preferences, with Koj revealing his aversion to BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) liquors in favor of white liquors, prompting Tmt to quip, "He don't want no D.E.I. in his D.U.I."The trio explores what differentiates those who achieve significant success from equally talented peers, referencing Anthony Mackie's recent discussion about the pivotal role of being "hand-selected" in an artist's breakthrough.Koj reflects on the humbling experience of his best joke falling flat for the first time, and Ua.x concludes the episode by listing famous music videos he has directed for renowned artists.Tune in to this episode filled with insightful discussions, personal anecdotes, and the signature humor that defines Submarine and A Roach. Don't forget to check out Ua.x's latest album, "Love and Hustle": https://open.spotify.com/album/28UnTAsmLHRV708ogPuL4D

I le Mareko 3:1-5, ina ua silasila atu Iesu  i le tamaloa ma le lima gase,  masalo ma ia manatunatu ia te ia lava, ‘Lima, oe te lei faia oe e gase, ae na faia oe ia patipati'. E lei tatalo pe ole atu le tamaloa lima gase mo se faamalologa, na faamalolo e le Alii le lima gase aua e lē o lona finagalo ia gase. Sa iai se tamā matua sa alu atu I lana taavale Ford ae faafuaseia ona leaga i luga o le auala ona faasee lea I tafatafa o le auala. A'o ia tutū ai I autafa o le taavale ma le femēmēai, na tu se taavale a se tagata mauoloa ma fesili atu pe manaomia se fesoasoani. Na oso I fafo le tamaloa mauoa mai lana taavale, tatala le keli o le taavale lea ua leaga, omiomi ni vaega o le taavale, ona toe faaola loa lea o le taavale. Na toe ola mai le taavale. Ua ofo lenei tamā matua, ua faliu ma fesili atu i le tamaloa mauoa, ‘aisea na e tu ai e fesoasoani mai ia te a'u?' Na tali atu le tamaloa mauoa, ‘O lo'u igoa o Henry Ford. Na ou faia le taavale lenei e ola ma alu, ae lē o le pe ma tū I tafatafa o le auala'. Le au pele e, o Lē na faia oe, o loo ui ane i le taimi nei, ma e mafai ona ia toe faaleleia mea uma I lou olaga e lē o atagia ai lona finagalo, ina ia viia ai o ia, i le suafa o Iesu. Afai e lē atagia le faamoemoe na faia ai e le Atua se tagata, e lē o ō gatasi ma lona finagalo.

Jon Jordan talks to Improbable CEO Herman Narula about why the UK game tech company decided it had to build its own blockchain. Called Somnia, its testnet is now live. [2:32] The Improbable genesis story: from Cambridge Uni to building games technology. [3:39] Building economies for virtual worlds means you need a blockchain for ownership. [4:54] Improbable's first success was The Multiplayer Guys, who worked on CoD, GTA, Fall Guys etc. [5:27] The biggest thing Improbable has learned is "the tenacity to pursue the mission". [5:44] The Improbable co-founders have been sanctioned by Russia due to their defence work. [6:59] The key thing for Improbable's MSquared tech is making the cost of operations so low. [8:19] Narula describes Improbable as a "venture builder" - it's a "company of companies". [9:56] What does MSquared do? It's a software platform to build large scale virtual worlds. [13:32] "We've always bet on the need for human beings to feel relatedness, even in games." [14:56] Why did Improbable have to design its own blockchain. Do we need another one? [15:32] The crypto space is obsessed with its token price. That's all they optimize for. [16:00] Somnia can handle 1 million transactions per second, with sub-second latency. [17:19] Improbable has almost a quarter of a billion dollars of cash. [19:08] "Pirate Nation's network costs are astronomical. It would save millions of dollars on Somnia." [20:55] Our focus isn't getting existing web3 games to move to Somnia, but new games. [22:23] The current problem for games is cost of UA and cost of development. [23:34] "I couldn't care less what the Somnia token price is. That's not how we make money." [25:31] Blockchain games now is like The Hunger Games - people fighting over a small amount of value. [27:39] How big a deal will AI agents be in future? How is Improbable using AI for development? [28:34] AI agents aren't going to have bank accounts. They're going to have crypto wallets. [31:02] In an post-AGI world, "Games are going to become a critical industry for human health." [35:17] If you're an EVM app, you change one line of code and move to Somnia.
