In general, Ghulab Jamun soft and soggy, full of sugary syrup. The exact taste, softness, sogginess etc. depends on where in India you’re trying it. Like most Indian desserts (or maybe even cuisine in general), it’s the name given to a diverse array of related desserts. They all have regional names, and are very similar but distinct. For example, in my hometown, it’s called Pantua, and it’ll be softer but less sweet than say in Western India.
Same fo Jalebi (we call it Jilipi). It’s crunchy, and sweet, and a little sticky. One again , the sweetness varies a lot depending on where you are. I’ve also seen alternative kinds of flour being used to make the dough, which changes the taste a lot.
Sorry if I wasn’t helpful, but it’s just very hard to explain how it tastes, because it depends on so many factors.

Most people follow sports (some even watch football) in India, and most can also read English. It’s probably a deliberate joke.

- Comment on Windows 11 user has 30 years of 'irreplaceable photos and work' locked away in OneDrive - and Microsoft's silence is deafening 5 weeks ago:
Hate to victim blame, but what a moron. Microsoft is definitely at fault here, but so is this guy.
He “moved” the data to OneDrive. Why the fuck would anyone do that? He wants to migrate to a new larger drive, but why did he feel the need to delete stuff before verifying that his data has safely been migrated to the new drive? A single drive to store anything important is very dangerous in itself, but this is a different level of stupidity.
I had few TB migration at the start of this year. I vehemently follow the 3-2-1 rule for anything important. (I actually do more copies than that for personal photos and documents.) But I still have the old disks just in case. I can’t fathom doing something like this. Maybe I’m overreacting, but ffs it’s stupid.

Interesting. I’ve mostly seen them in the Nordic countries. (But then I haven’t had an opportunity to travel to SE Asia yet.)

I need to sleep now. If someone doesn’t post it by the time I wake up, I can make it. I think I have the episode.
- Comment on Special sampling opportunity 1 month ago:
Yeah, I might definitely be wrong. But still looks like some Costco-like store. Maybe Sam’s Club?
- Comment on Special sampling opportunity 1 month ago:
Looks like Costco to me. It’s probably a pack of a few billion rolls.

- Comment on demon named racecar 2 months ago:
Bengali. But it’s a Sanskrit loan word (i.e. tatsama), so it’s the same in many north Indian languages. I don’t think it’s used as a name outside of Bengal, though.
- Comment on demon named racecar 2 months ago:
Not a kid. Also, I think he’s fine with it. He grew up in India, so it wasn’t a big deal.
- Comment on demon named racecar 2 months ago:
I know a guy whose actual name is Anal. It means fire in our native language lol. Not a nice name to have when you’re in the US (unfortunately).

I agree with most of the programs that others have posted. I’ll just mention two that I absolutely love but no one has mentioned yet,

It shouldn’t happen, really. Can you send me a photo of your credit card so that I can see what’s happening? 🤔
- Comment on What is the best political movie? And what is the best apolitical movie? 3 months ago:
Best political, probably Kolkata 71. Parasite is also very good. Best apolitical, I have to go with Panther Panchali. It’s so hard to just choose one movie, my answer will probably change if you ask me again in a few days. A list of 20 might do it a bit more justice lol.

I’ve been using Cloudflare for my sites. They offer at-cost domain registration, and I’ve been pretty happy.
- Comment on Ads are coming to bit.ly links 5 months ago:
There are sometimes reason to use it. It’s shorter, so easier to remember. It’s also easier to send in text. I use a selfhosted shortener, so I can use these as dynamic links and can change the target if I need to while keeping the shortlink the same. But I agree that most don’t use it for respectable reasons.

Reminds me of the movie Udaan. A great great film.

I’m usually visiting my parents during new year, so I just text a few friends. We usually meet up later in the day, though.

None of the things you mentioned sound even remotely plausible though. 🥲

Yes, electoral college should be abolished. It’s probably not gonna happen though, so this is a temporary band-aid solution that many states have implemented.

- Comment on Why are laptop adapters so much larger than phone adapters of same power rating? 8 months ago:
Ok, I guess I misinterpreted what you said. My laptop only has a DC barrel port. I want to charge it using any of the high wattage GaN chargers. To do that, I’ll need something that converts the USB-C to barrel, and does the voltage negotiations. But thanks anyway. Maybe this’ll help someone else.
