@kashaziz @yaserawan There are many roasters in Pakistan now, The Illy and Starbucks beans one gets here are stale, months old, stored in sub-optimal conditions, and not something worth spending time or money on IMO. Illy is the Visual Basic 6 of coffee beans in Pakistan.

@yuntiandeng You are right to push back. I measured instead of guessing, and the results are load-bearing. Two things this raised that need your call.

Claude down incidents need to trend on X.

[Sohaib Athar @ReallyVirtual]

Is 'Claude is down' going to replace 'Instagram|Twitter|Facebook is down' in the months to come?

@DMubashirullah @ProPakistaniPK Funny I came across this tweet today, I was vibe-nerding with the CDA data in Claude on the same topic last week. https://t.co/Hb8ejiR1Vf

@mobeenshafaat You can select which languages to NOT auto-translate in settings. Urdu is not one of them. Many tiny local Indian ones are. That's my issue.

چالیس کروڑ اردو بولنے والوں پر زبردستی انگریزی ترجمہ مسلط کر دو تاکہ مطلب ترجمے میں گم ہو جائے، اور گجراتی اور تامل جیسی چھوٹی زبانوں کو پوری عزت دو۔ یہ کیا بکواس ہے ایکس؟

@OmarWaraich That's not me. That's some engineering student sitting outside at 1 AM in Abbottabad (as it was study time in EST). Can't wait to see what facts they've unpacked on Venezuela.

@TOKCityOfLights Couldn't let the poor guy RIP?

The 'war' (or anything else) is not over until the top three trends in Pakistan are all about cricket.

[Sohaib Athar @ReallyVirtual]

Maybe the next one would be an RTS instead of a turn-based one.

How'd they fight wars without memes in the past centuries?

I thought it was 'bunya nu maar soo' (in a Hindko accent) when I first read the transliterated name of the operation, but it is بنیان مرصوص - punny!

[Sohaib Athar @ReallyVirtual]

@ARehman713 Yes, I got that a minute later, but بنیاں نو مار سو is quite appropriate as well.
