@khubsuratinsaan bus spec sheet says it tops out at 80 https://busesandvans.tatamotors.com/assets/buses/files/2024-11/616-24-Tata%20Motors-EV-Bus-Starbus-4-12.pdf

@khubsuratinsaan oh! no those are just JBM EcoLife (12 meters), Switch Delhi is just a campaign encouraging Delhi people to _switch_ thats not affiliated to SWITCH the Ashok Leyland brand; and the JBM EcoLife buses I have ridden have all had the sticker saying 40 km/h

@khubsuratinsaan fair! I mean at least if the Haryana Traffic Police's website is to be believed the national limit is 65, so I would be amazed if those buses go to 99, unsure if the electric motors can pull that off

@khubsuratinsaan ...? JBM is an independent company, Switch is a subsidary of Ashok Leyland, not sure I know what you mean again

@khubsuratinsaan I have no clue what bus you might be referring to there

@khubsuratinsaan https://traffic.delhipolice.gov.in/general-information seems to be a Delhi wide speed limit for any sort of transportation vehicle. https://busesandvans.tatamotors.com/assets/buses/files/2024-11/616-24-Tata%20Motors-EV-Bus-Starbus-4-12.pdf seems to imply the buses are rated for upto 70 km/h, but I believe it is still limited for the buses the DTC buys so I assume even the ones crossing the border might be limited physically

@khubsuratinsaan I assume thats just the sticker? afaik its straight up illegal for city buses to go over a 40km/h speed limit, i will double check the legal code, but I remember articles going back to 2005ish talking about some city buses being illegally modified to remove their speedcap

someones selling an HP branded 24 port 1 gig managed switch for ~35 euros locally.

I do not need a 24 port switch for my studio apartment, i do not need a 24 port switch for my studio apartment, I do not need a 24 port switch for my studio apartment I do not need a 24 port switch for my studio apartment I do not need a 24 port switch for my studio apartment

@khubsuratinsaan oh yes they started more intra state routes a while back ... which I dislike, they use their common fleet for it so less 12 meters for the overcrowded city, all while these big non "coach" buses run capped at 40 km/h on highways

@khubsuratinsaan okay this actually scratched my brain a lot went back and tried to find it, could you point me a link? (the irony of apparently asking for a link to my own blog lmao)

Edit:
Ignore! I found it, bwah, theres so many typos and gramatical errors, ugh, how does one even read any of that!

@khubsuratinsaan lmao, I mentioned in one of my other posts that I don't read back my blog and because I write in like a flow of consciousness thing, I usually don't remember what I write

@khubsuratinsaan dont rember saying that ever but sounds like me! also would be the headline of my blog post tbh, might add jt

@khubsuratinsaan NOOOOOOO

finally updated my blog, wrote 3 pieces I have been ruminating on for over 5 months on, and now its 0400, ... they really should take away my 'puter priviliges

@sahil @khubsuratinsaan closest coolest thing I saw was a marker in central Delhi near Bikaner House for RailTel OFC, did not know RailTel operated there, or had underground finer trunks, was a big TIL

@khubsuratinsaan @sahil certainly! also I assume the big growth could be attributed to a program BSNL ran in october allowing people with new sims or porting over to get a two or whatever month 2 gig a day unlimited calls plan for one ruppee, i happened to have switched over at that point, there was a guy™ who was during that month, bringing sims over from Faridabad to my locality near Noida to sell sims to people and I saw regular customers!

@khubsuratinsaan damn do you know any online documentation about it? I cant find anything about it online

@khubsuratinsaan @sahil ~I use it, though i plan on switchinf away drom ir~
