Yes. Rayalseema restaurants would be bio terrorism in the west 😂. Even most Indians can’t tolerate the piquency of that food.

I doubt these trucks can be driven around in European or Asian roads. They seem so humongous. Even cargo vehicles which transport goods across the city are much smaller than these in India. Why are trucks so popular in the US? Does everyone haul things often? Are cargo trucks not rentable?

Dude is the richest person in the world. Penny pinching and denying his former employees their due when he rapidly raises his wealth is outright evil. Well, I guess there is a reason why no good human ever accumulates hundreds of billion dollars. If you are good, your conscience will force you to use your wealth to make other’s lives better and you will lose your big B tag.

Ripe bananas.

When a party form a government on its own i.e without any coalition partners, they tend to target the opposition with all the arsenal be it CBI , ED and sometimes even the Judiciary. However the elections are fair and impartial for the most part. Just recently, BJP got its ass handed to it in a state election in Karnataka. They may win the federal election again but it is hardly a death of democracy. Their grip on states have been slipping and once it goes out, they will most likely lose the federal government as well. The same happened during Indira Gandhi era. The same is happening now. Democracy survived then and will survive now. I am not saying there is no assault on democratic institutions in India. But they have proved resilient enough to prevent a democratic collapse as portrayed in this article.

It is best to move to Firefox because fundamentally the chromium project thrives because of Google ,an Ad company. It is not worth using chromium derivatives.

Is 3K considered cheap or costly in the US for nursing home? In any case, this food doesnt look appetizing at all. In India, we still havent gotten these as currently the children are expected to care for their older parents. But when my generation becomes old we probably need to check ourselves into these facilities.

I have the same feeling. Sometimes not being the popular option seems to be the best 😀 I do want the fediverse to grow but I hope we will have the tools and features to retain this level of groundedness that we see today.

Intermittent fasting does help in managing weight . I have cut out sugar from diet and do intermittent fasting. My HBA1C levels have come down to 5 since. It was close to 6.1 previously. While anecdotes are not data, intermittent fasting seems like a simple way to manage pre diabetes.

Just goes to show how a GDPR like law should be enforced in all countries. If you can’t edit or delete your own content, it certainly infringes on your rights.

Oh gawd. Sitting through all this when having normal stress headache itself is impossible. I would have puked and collapsed into a fetal position. Not sure how you even pulled it off. Also time to get a new mom.

Firefox on Android supports ublock and noscript as well as other privacy extension. I cannot recommend it enough. Also use newpipe for YouTube. For any apps, see if you have an equivalent in f-droid and use it instead of the one from playstore.

Lets take the example of Reddit. Reddit could have kept its costs to the minimum and could have run the site with the ad revenue that came in. In fact they could have talked transparently about their opex and asked for a simple donation drive every now and then like Wikipedia. If need be, they could have removed silly GIF replies and other stuff and focused on text alone. However this would not let them become the next Facebook. That’s what they wanted to be. At some point in their story was a choice to be forums 2.0 or get into a race to become a cash grab. Sadly they went for the latter.

Reddit’s soul was slowly drained off life. It’s better here than going back to Zombieland. That’s said, I will grab some popcorn and watch this slow train wreck called future of Reddit.

I have used freetube on windows. I assume adblock is in browser context here, so freetube should skip the browser completely.

Jerboa has been good so far. Somehow the discussions on lemmy feels more engaging than on reddit. Might be because there are no bots regurgiating comments. But the lack of my favourite subreddits have helped my phone addiction 😂 Hopefully this will be rectified soon 😉

Thanks to the blackout I got to know about lemmy. Otherwise may never have tried this. Now I know , it might be hard to go back. If my favourite subreddits end up here or have their own instances, it will be great. But even if they don’t , I am done with reddit. The quality of comments in reddit has been in the downward direction for a long time now. I remember when I stopped using digg. It was upgraded to mongo db and nothing was available for a while. That was when I went to reddit and forgot about digg completely. Reddit blackout is when I joined lemmy.world and forgot about reddit 😂

From stackoverlow to duck overflow 😂

Someone was experiencing paranoia and suspected his landlord of breaking and entering his house and writing stuff on his notepad and such. A reddit commenter asked him to check for carbon monoxide levels and it turns out his home had higher levels of co and could have turned fatal. I am always inspired by that and how a random person can save another person’s life by sharing his knowledge in time. That’s truly legendary.
