War, Current South Asian Politics
FUCK this war and FUCK the states for pushing all of this shit, I hate how much this has affected the life of the people around me, and more realistically pushed everyone's misery to the sidelines.

I WILL NOT LET THE STATE'S BLOOD THIRST DICTATE MY LIFE, I WON'T LET THE MEDIA CREATED PANIC PUSH ME DOWN AND TAKE AWAY FROM MY REGULAR LIFE

the "stop doing math" meme except it says "STOP DRIVING CARS". the meme reads:
* PEOPLE WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE ISOLATED IN CAGES
* YEARS OF CONSTRUCTION yet NO REAL-WORLD USE FOUND for building ONE MORE LANE
* Wanted to travel large distances anyway for a laugh? We had a tool for that: It was called "TRAINS"
* "Yes please give me NO GREENERY. Please give me INFINITE PAVEMENT" - Statements dreamed up by the utterly Deranged

LOOK at what Civil Engineers have been demanding your Respect for all this time, with all the concrete and asphalt we built for them

@contrapunctus @sahil When we did pirate cycling, we always went to events organized by contacts (we cycled across Kerala for a month) - which won't be possible for mapping, but trying to involve locals or getting a letter from Police could help. About mask also, the question is about trade offs - how much are we willing to put at stake. To solve complicated social problem - a direct personal approach is not the only available option. Personal courage, not the single solution to every situation.

You know what? Fuck you

Do you want to send an SMS? If you're from #India, chances are you get 100 of those every day bundled with whatever phone plan you subscribed to.

But if you're a company looking to send messages to people, the story is quite different. Prav currently uses the Twilio SMS gateway, which costs us about ₹7 per message. Since we need to send our one-time passwords (OTPs) via SMS, that makes seven rupees spent every time someone signs up (or logs in again) to Prav!

Help us cover our SMS costs by sending a donation.

A headline or more like a prophecy from 1953.

A newspaper clipping with the headline from the 1953 "There'll Be No Escape in Future From Telephones". The article discusses a prediction about the future of telephones, stating they will be carried like watches, require no dial, and allow users to see each other and potentially translate languages.
