Went to an Indian restaurant in Bucharest.
Waiter saw me with the lichess app. Said he is very good at this game and can for sure beat me.
Claims to have "two thousand rating".
What do I do?

@Schandillia Wait till they find out about family guy and how the show mocks Christianity(or every other religion) left, right and center!
English
There isn’t a religion easier to mock than Christianity. They literally do talk show jokes, memes, cartoons, and full-blown films ridiculing the religion. Try a Hindu version of a Last Temptation. Or even an Evan Almighty. 🙄
Mr Sinha@Mrsinha
-In USA & other countries, nobody can question Christianity -In Pakistan & other countries, nobody can question Islam -In India, Muslims, Christians, etc. can openly talk about finishing Sanatan And yet, it’s Hindus who are labelled "intolerant" & lectured about "secularism".

@microrapptor @adityajakki @mattyglesias @clary_co Which part of argument do you disagree with?
Is it India inheriting a larger portion of the Indus Valley Civilization or
Indo-Greek kingdoms extending deep in today's India?
English
@adityajakki @mattyglesias @clary_co By writing “actually” doesn't count in actuality.
Pls share some reference or book so we can read.
English
Sometimes you'll hear Pakistanis say that there was a coherent geographic unit consistent w/ modern Pakistan that was created by the mountains & Indus River basin that long predates the Mughals, British India, or even Islam. This is a good historical example for that argument.
Matthew Yglesias@mattyglesias
There was a Greek kingdom for roughly 200 years in what is now Pakistan.

@rishabhm A low-trust culture of company spilling out in their hiring process! One should never join such company.
English
There will always be people who renege on joining. But you shouldn't mess up your HR practices for that.

@saint_cloudy During British Raj(British rule over India), many hunters observed that bears were often considered more dangerous than apex predators like tigers!
English
Nature was incredibly cruel to make bears such dangerous animals
Redd@ReddCinema
The bear rlly thought it was a hug 😭

@WIONews @AadhyaJunejaa IPL is quite boring and looks very monotonous. BCCI stadiums are also the worst looking with no aesthetics or good facility.

@johnsillings @joncphillips more latency i guess(for simple apps). sqlite removes network and IPC overhead. But i would always opt for Postgres first.
English
Hot take: SQLite in production is fine for 90% of the SaaS products people are building. Your app doesn’t need Postgres.

@roamtheplanet0 Apparently you don't need to pitch tent at all through the trek is what I have heard ?
It's all tea houses across the stretch ?
English
@madversity But sir, shouldn't journalists be independent and not show any overt admiration of politicians(especially those in power)?
How can public trust future reporting to be objective?

I have attended and seen many swearing-in ceremonies in India but #TamilNadu's new Chief Minister #TVKVijay has raised oath- taking to a new level. His diction, tone and rendition were majestic, energetic and sincere, turning what all along sounded like a drab, bureaucratic script into a mission statement.

@4dm1_bruh @carlwheless Wow! Didn't realize lead designer of Focke-Wulf was in Anna University!
Can't paste excerpt from wikipedia here, but his stint looked OK from what i read.
English
@mentoknyis @carlwheless Oh come on, the one time india had a nazi designer (kurt tank) they fumbled so hard
English
@mentoknyis @masatmithizaat Most indian forcefully made to live like lower caste.
caste brutality resulted into resources discrimination, that result in malnutrition and stunted growth.
Didn't happen on Punjab etc because of Buddhism.
British came and saw more health people and called them martial race
English
Contrary to popular myths, upper castes were more likely to convert to Islam. Rajputs represent a greater proportion of converts to Islam wrt to their share in the population. In fact, Punjabi Rajputs are exclusively Muslim. The phenomenon he mentions happened, but in Sindh.
Hindi@bz6290
One of the most uncomfortable facts Punjabi Muslims find hard to accept is that the majority of us were actually low castes who accepted Islam to escape the caste system.
English
@AIIA260470 @masatmithizaat It's "Martial" race, not marital. Not everything is about marriage.
Also, Martial race theory has been debunked many times.
English
@masatmithizaat 80-90% Indians are Lower caste, they have smaller height, weak bodies due to resource discrimination for last 5000 years.
Upper caste controlled food, land, animal and water and that resulted in malnutrition and stunted growth.
While Punjabis were called Marital race by British

Lt Gen N S Raja Subramani PVSM, AVSM, SM, VSM (Retd.) is the new Chief of Defence Staff.
Probably one of the most decorated and versatile officer in recent times.
It seems Prabhu has chosen you to do historic duty. May you be blessed with unparalleled strength.

@PahadiBudbak @Shivam_h9 thanks for reply. So, should both criteria of being
a. colonel of the Garhwal regiment and
b. commander of its famous scout battalion
be met for sporting that patch? What if a two/three star general had just commanded a battalion of garhwal scout in past?
English
@mentoknyis @Shivam_h9 Cause he was colonel of the regiment ( garhwal rifles and garhwal scouts)
English
@sharathjothi @mkatju I think both his statements are consistent. I think you misunderstood his latest tweet. He is blasting both Dravidian parties as well as Vijay.
English
Dravidian politics is a huge fraud on the good but gullible people of Tamilnadu. Both DMK and ADMK encashed it and made tons of money. That is why the people of Tamilnadu rejected both these worthless parties of rogues and rascals and opted for a third alternative, little realising that they are only going from the frying pan into the fire
English
@JJayarevan @Dig_raw21 @MapOsnit General Padmanabhan comes to mind. His exploits when he commanded 15 corps in Kashmir valley is admired by all Indians.
English
@Dig_raw21 @MapOsnit It's rare to see a Thamizhan officer but this time CDS himself a Thamizhan..woww 👌🏻👌🏻

@swatic12 I think this time, he can prove he has required numbers.

BREAKING: Vijay likely to meet Governor this evening, @NDTV learns, third meeting in 3 days.

If Operation Sindoor Produced a Winner, it Wasn't India
India entered the conflict with every advantage. It left without a single written commitment from Pakistan. One year on, that gap is the story.
