@furnuwees @SynapseDot @EvanFeigenbaum Global firepower ranks india 4th and economically it is 4th - 5th. It is fast growing and expected to be a large economy.
So, if India is not regional power, who your smart brain thinks is regional power? Bangladesh?

@corevats Legally/compliance-wise it’s hard and risky in India if you want to send an unsolicited SMS to someone who never opted in.

@lastFitStanding That's a UI bug I think. At ~/.local/share/muse/sessions/YYYY/MM/DD/.../session.jsonl
I dont see reasoning_effort value max, it is either low or high

@airindia Hi Team,

@MSEDCL Hi Team, the registered mobile number for my electricity bill has long expired. I don't have that number now. How can I update new mobile number? As all OTPs are going to old number.
Called customer care, they say there is no process.

Recent updates on mahadiscom websites do not allow anything without OTP.

Request you to provide some solution.

@JioCare This is the latest. I will pursue them to resolve this, they can't take money and not provide service or refund. @JioCare

@JioCare Hi Team, Jio app advised me to make advance payment for activating the jio fiber connection, now the customer care is saying connection cannot be activated (because it remained inactive for long - 5 months ) and payment made cannot be refunded (paid overdue the then I was advised for making more advance payments)

I understand it cannot be activated but how come you are encouraging customers to make fraudulent payments through app and then saying it cannot be refunded. Similar things happened when you guys asked money for jiophone advanced booking, i booked but didn't get mobile and my money was also not refunded (4000 rupees) .

Is this some kind of scam going on for swindling customers?
There could be lakhs of folks like me who couldn't not raise their issues.

For this instance my postpaid account details are 778700653891, please resolve this.

I might pursue this legally.

U changed the topic. Like Guru Nanak ji, there have been many many in Hinduism that went against or changed certain aspects of Hindu culture (which is diverse). So, I don't think i have any issue with that. e.g from Buddha to Mahavir Jain to other social reformers who either formed certain sects or not formed.

So, no one (Hindus) here is claiming to be superior. Hindus have been self reforming and surviving.

If disparaging others and nit picking on their way of life is how u want to feel good about, please do. No problem.

However, Humanity is past that age when someone would tell us what is right and wrong, and every one would follow that direction.
In terms of such philosophical things, I think there is enough work that has been done (all the religions)

The present and future will be scientifically driven, the role of religions and philosophical teachings should solely be focused on how peace and harmony could be established for a better future of humans and earth. Most of the converts seeking religions and the ones with superiority complex are doing exactly opposite - that's where the problem lies.

So, you pointing out that I pray to idols and u something else and calling yourself superior is silly - we know what is what. By the way, Hinduism is diverse and there are many school of thoughts (not all are about idols).

And to be honest, as a person with scientific temperament, someone who takes keen interest in black holes, who is in awe of sheer size of known universe, who is perplexed by chaos of quantum particles, who wonders what existed before the singularity and how it panned afterwards, I find 'God is everywhere' tenet of Hinduism more appealing, if God exists.

As Hindus, we have a culture which we love and we are not bound by any dogmas or rules - so it is ok to question everything, and that's why Guru Nanak ji/Buddha and many others could question (other religions or even your own religion wont allow that now e.g Islam ). As I told Hinduism is diverse, and not started by some individuals directive, so we have atheists and all other types of individuals as well.

Overall, let us live. Ancient humans worshipped nature e.g trees, animals etc, we do that and we do not see anything wrong in that. Rather there are only positives.

If you think that you are praying someone more superior, do that no problem but do not call other names. We are ok praying your Gods as well - by the way till 12th standard I didn't even know Sikhs were a different religion, however, now I understand everything better so if you want to create a separate identity for yourself I think it's ok but some people will counter some aspects especially when you have condescending attitude towards others.

Reality of Bandi Chhor Divas
@puneet_sahani Sir has posted extensively about Bandi Chhor Divas
Sikhs have traditionally celebrated Diwali as their key festival.
A Thread 🧵

[vk @vk2106]

@grok @TheNightKing619 @lonely4660 @TinyDhillon Are some people e.g Khalistanis now trying to insert Bandi Chhor to avoid showing up as Diwali being celebrated by Sikhs?
Why it is happening? Bandi Chor name itself was coined some 20-30 years back?

[vk @vk2106]

@grok @TheNightKing619 @lonely4660 @TinyDhillon @grok Year previous to the prisoner release, were Sikhs celebrating anything during Diwali?

@certifiedcringe @gharkekalesh By the way, the infamous blue drum episode was for love marriage.

You think it is all ok to go back no mobile days?

Technological advancement is the barometer of progress in modern times. We can design good, but we need to manufacture now.

By your logic, nothing is important to us like ISRO rockets, Nuclear technology to being able to produce any other thing

India has already become the world’s second-largest smartphone market by volume, surpassing the US, and yet it remains heavily dependent on imports for mobile phones and—more critically—their processors. A vast majority of smartphones sold in India today run on advanced chips built on nodes smaller than 28 nm, with premium models increasingly adopting sub-4 nm technology.

Despite this enormous domestic demand and its position as an emerging economy, India still lacks a semiconductor foundry capable of manufacturing these cutting-edge chips. Instead, it relies on global fabs in Taiwan, South Korea, and the US. This means India has missed the opportunity to leverage its massive market size to develop indigenous manufacturing capacity.

As consumption of lower-node chips continues to grow with 5G, AI, and IoT adoption, the gap between India’s import dependence and its market potential is widening. For a country of this scale and ambition, not having built a strong domestic foundry ecosystem by now is both a strategic vulnerability and a lost economic opportunity.
