The Rental Community has partnered with @lexarmemory_in to offer high quality memory and storage solutions at a discounted pricing to our community members with priority support!

after processing more than 1000 KYCs, i realised that identity in India is a huge mess!

the same person literally have different names and DOBs on 2 different ID documents.

[Om Shah @omshah]

@omkarships curious to know, what's the shelf life of things built in public?

[Om Shah @omshah]

the secondary effects of memory and storage price hikes could land in 2 possible directions.

1. rental companies, will see a huge rise in demand (that's already happening in India with PS5 rentals and other categories)
or
2. like apple did, other companies will soon start a leasing program or device as a subscription program, and compete with these rental companies directly.

it would be interesting to observe these effects first hand with The Rental Community! It would be interesting to see how apple would deal with frauds if they launch this in India. fortunately, we are building https://t.co/kfKwRLX4Pw for the same.

[Apple Hub @theapplehub]

Apple has officially launched 'Apple Upgrade,' a new product leasing program provided by Klarna in the United States 🚨

@yashhq_22 depends on a few things:
the market
your product
competitor's offerings
the severity of the problem your product solves

@thebuggeddev @threejs it's amazing. i wonder how countries like India could adopt such teaching methodologies at scale.

@danellisona we had hired an intern for ui/ux and we realised we don't need it. ai gets the job done. as a startup, it's amazing! for freshers, it's getting worse!

[Om Shah @omshah]

@PlayStation ending physical disc production will kill many companies and platforms built around reselling. i wonder how it'll affect the gaming console rental companies.

since consoles are getting expensive than ever, i see many people opting for short term rental of such consoles, at least in India.

[Om Shah @omshah]

For decades now this entire industry has been overlooked with no regulator and the entire sector being completely unorganized, have to face a lot of frauds. We are changing that! https://t.co/7oKARaBamh
