Wow! Twitter says I joined 10 yrs ago.
Twitter has changed a lot. I'm not regular here. I miss many old friends. Good old days were fun.. before the politics & other nonsense took over the platform..

Deeply saddened by the passing of Shri A. Balakrishnan Ji, who served as the All India President of Vivekananda Kendra.
Balakrishnan Ji devoted more than five decades of his life to the ideals of Swami Vivekananda and to the service of society. As one of the early Jeevanvratis of Vivekananda Kendra, he worked tirelessly across the country. He had a particularly deep association with the Northeast. He played an important role in educational, social and nation-building activities.
My heartfelt condolences to the entire Vivekananda Kendra family and his admirers. Om Shanti.

X has become my Ex. Thanks to all political spamming here. I rarely login here. I Miss those good old days and some nice Ppl.. which was a good timepass then.
Be very careful and pray when you're driving out on NICE Road after dark. A friend was dropping us back home when a cement block, roughly 6"x3"x3" cement block was thrown at the car from one of the connecting bridges over the NICE Road between Bannerghatta Road and Hosur Road at about 2:30am this morning.
We did not stop the car as the usual MO in such cases is to rob the occupants of the vehicle the moment they stop to take a view of what has happened. I also noticed a cement block on the road fraction of a second before we were hit - it points to the same MO being applied to some other vehicle before we were targeted.
The car was doing 70-80kph and the impact was dulled by the wiper blades. If the viper blades had not taken the impact directly, the block would have hit me sitting in the front passenger seat easily - the windshield had a gaping hole towards the bottom.
I have traversed this road numerous times since it became functional and had never faced this threat ever. It seem that the times are changing. The ever-present Hoysala cars along the Begur-Koppa Road are seen very few times.
@CPBlr, I'd request you to have better surveillance along these unlit bridges that overlook this highway. We fortunately came out of this experience with a few cuts, a massively damaged windshield and dashboard, and a scary experience. Things could have been much worse.
I took two hours to get home today, so I'm going to celebrate with a thread on how a design choice made in the 90s at point A is leading to traffic pileups at point B, 6 kilometers away, in 2023. Brace yourselves.
