Damn it, I thought it was smart and rushed to comment and the only comment is what I wanted to say. I’m so unoriginal.

Well at first I was furious about your comment, but as I went to reply I kept laughing at how funny it is. So thanks for the chuckle.

Well fuel should not be the problem. Fuel is actually much more efficient than airplanes. Rest of the problem though. Sure I’d worry too.

Write random data in the drive over and over again, with one or two pass there are some sophisticated techniques that can get some sliver of data out if the random. But with 3 4 passes and more it’s statistically unlikely they can recover anything.

But it’s true in gen Z outside US as well. So something like affordability is a problem globally for them.

I definitely do notice bots from time to time, but I’d agree with you that it’s still small and bots are not that common, YET.
- Comment on It's easy 4 weeks ago:
I feel i came from a middle class but relatively well do family, dad had enough so we never had to skip meals or skip new clothes every year. But I also got luckyt young in my age (from age 12 to 17). I regularly interacted with people who were poor, underprivileged and ubdereducated. I saw parents giving their 1 year old some hash just to stop them from crying, I mean what chance that kid has to ever be sober. I saw a grown man who aas extremely happy when I gave away my 3 year old t shirt that i thought i got so bored with. I saw daily labour markets where I’ve seen grown man cry because they didn’t get picked for that day and he doesn’t know how he is going to be feeding his family tonight. I saw how being poor was a trap, I remember I saw this day laborer buy 10ml of oil, 200g of rice, 100g of beans at exorbitant markups (50-70% compared to if he bought standard 1kg packs) . And I was like this man is stupid for not buying bulk and my dad explained, he has to go hungry for a week before he can save up enough to buy bulk and he’d much rather not go hungry.
Anyway my point being, I am always aware lucky and privileged I am. all parents should make good faith effort to show their kids how people below them in wheel of luck live, and not as a cautionary tale like an exhibit. But put them in situations where they can see the actual good people behind the poor, underprivileged and ubdereducated label. Otherwise kids only know their lifestyle and think that’s normal.

Well good to see critical thinking alive. No blanket statements, just hey that’s what I felt, not sure it’s reliable, but that’s what I felt.
I gotta respect that.

Ayyyyy teaaa gang rise up.
- Comment on Anon thinks about wheat 1 month ago:
You can all tropical cultures have some form of rice bread. Indians have rice bhakhari, South East Asia has rice paper, rice mixed with wheat in banh mi, Liberia and Sierra Leone have ginger rice bread. Its a fundamentally different bread and requires different complimentary food. If you use it as replacement for wheat bread it will not taste the same. Its like you made wheat pilav and then complained its not the same. Of course it’s not the same that’s the point.

I’m 31 and I scored all 20, assuming last is phone book. Although I only trained in typewriter, never actually sent anyone a letter. Although I did type a contract for my dad so I guess that’s a real use case. All 20 then.

Of course forming attachment to things that rest of the world might consider mundane is pretty normal and we all do it. Nothing unnatural or out of place for that and totally understandable. I understand sadness over a broken bowl. I worry that breaking of bowl is self inflicted.
In hindsight, I misunderstood OP’s question. I think I understand and agree with your points.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
I’m sorry to say this, and I know it’s unpopular opinion, but there are healthier way to deal with emotions than breaking things. I know in your case it’s perfectly valid and normal response. But in OP’s case whacking things off the shelf, we have a choice not to lat emotions take you there. It’s like an addict saying I can’t help but steal for my hit. Its the same thing I can’t help but whack things when I’m angry.
- Comment on India is ordering Apple and Android phone makers to preinstall a state-owned app 2 months ago:
From my dealings with Indian govt, more likely they’ll abandon it at some point. But yes trusting a government is always a difficult task.
- Comment on India is ordering Apple and Android phone makers to preinstall a state-owned app 2 months ago:
What governments should be requiring is, making bootloader unlockable and making firmware for all antennas, camera and buttons public. I think it’s too much to ask of any government.
That being said this Sanchar Sarthi app doesn’t look so bad at a glance. Looks like a okay ish attempt at giving population tools to fight identity theft and phishing/scamming with some questionable success. Also the app supposedly doesn’t collect any data.
