    This happened even after updating MicroG?

    Adani group, an Evil corp?

    Didn't understand the temple thing? ED heat on his daughter is a recent thing. Vijayan has been uncharacteristically (for the left) bullish on Vizhinjam ever since he assumed office back in 2016. Kerala's finances have always been such that capex has taken a back seat. It needed a more...

    Pinarayi has been surprisingly bullish on Vizhinjam. He also seems to have a good working relationship with the centre.

    Health & Fitness COVID Vaccine Experience and your preference.

    That's jumping the gun. Let's be honest, it was an event with too many variables. Moreover, the vaccine was developed at a much faster pace than what was conventional. As I've mentioned before on this thread, administering the vaccines was a probabilistic call and net-net, saved many more lives...

    To be fair, most people here indulging in simplistic binary arguments haven't experienced what a great power conflict is and how the outcome of such a conflict plays an outsized role in what are considered normative/ideal ways of thinking by the larger world. For instance, the deification of...

    They've mentioned what issues users of such apps will face (buffering, content not available etc.). I don't see how their 'action' would amount to anything more than that, especially something as extreme as something at the account level.

    Anything specific in mind? Happy to try it out. EDIT: Ran Bitdefender and Malwarebytes scans (latter took an age), nothing was flagged. EDIT EDIT: Good on them for getting the attribution correct.

    Yup, they say it themselves, the forked bit. Forked is fine by me.

    Revanced: possible successor to vanced utube

    Fair point by all. Although talk of 'official version' is a bit pointless for something like this, safety is a valid point and a site that links to a Github repo is a good heuristic to follow. I'll keep using the .net one and report back if there's further news on that front. So far so good...

    No such issues for me. Even I was in two minds initially as this and the other (official?) ReVanced site are the top two results when you Google Vanced. Hope it doesn't turn out to be rogue later on.

    My bad, should've clarified. This one - https://revanced.net/

    I installed ReVanced for the first time a couple of days back, after a year of having stopped using Vanced because of random issues. Downloading and installing via the ReVanced community manager was the simplest way, so much so that I installed it on 3 phones at home, all non-rooted.

    The wet shaving thread

    Last week, I visited a barber after eons and saw him use a non-foaming shave gel to shave my head. Intrigued, especially given I already use the hair conditioner trick to shave my head, I bought a bottle of this non-foaming gel from a local saloon/beauty supplies wholesaler for ₹120. While the...

    Geopolitics and foreign policy are amoral. Not immoral, mind you, but amoral. When even what's considered 'human ethics' (the Princess Latifa episode is a very minor example of this) is a mere instrument in the pursuit of those goals, 'business ethics' is just a matter of convenience, at this level.

    Good. The US recognises the geopolitical significance of the situation. Though given how multiple factions/actors are involved within the US, the statement by the said US official is very smartly worded. Most people who bought into the allegations against Adani wholesale, without an iota of...
