>>213 Wishing a happy dipawali to all of you. May this coming year peace and prosperity

>>8203 Thanksanon belated same to you too as well.

>>8299 The issue with alcohol is just one. If you want to see true degeneracy, visit a construction site where the workers stay at night. Rich women cannot compete with that sex drive and degeneracy. All their IG bullshit is a joke. > I doubt very much anyone with bigger aspirations in life can mix well with them. This and the crab bucket mentality. >>8299 >>8300 If the lefties and Brits opposed Brahmins, then the Brahmins are really good and dangerous. AS simple as that. If the people who oppose our interests, say that Brahmins are bad then they are good. Savarkar too was a Brahmin. >>8305 >>8306 Cinmea is actually doing really really well. Western Cinema is fucked. But indie and east are doing really well. Ignore the western slop. Attend Indie fests and take chances etc.

No sleep is pretty insane. Not only is it depressing it makes your own demons come alive in a really bad way. Fight club is a very good movie in expressing how a brain without sleep becomes. Add to that winter and sub zero temps, early winter and high energy prices. Apartment hunt is not going well. Fucking Ukranians took all the good properties. >>8305 Alien 1i is too good. Need ot watch 2. But will watch 2 and 3 tonight.

>>8306 >>8303 >>8302 Your work leaves no time for you having being able to talk with yourself. That is a serious issue. > Browse internet late Yeah, Youtube and other such platforms are designed to be addictive. The issue is, they don't let you get bored entirely but don't entirely entertain you either. Cigs are easier. You should choose something that lets you express yourself. Write with a pen and paper. Songs and music are fine , that is how I fall asleep too (for different reasons though). I have years spent working where I don't remember more than few days. > Gym for most days That is actually inspiring, I need to get this habit as well. >>8303

>>8279 Prob going to make a longpost on this. >>8280 Red Indians got fucked but there is a class of elites which monopolize all resources and continue this mentality to solidify their position, almost like sepoys. These people will kill their own race, but most are actually 7/8ths white. Natives also rightly blame whites but refuse to acknowledge their own faults. Alcoholism, drug abuse, child neglect, violence etc. can and should all be solved within the community but they devote attention to kanging over treaty rights for money that will mysteriously disappear as the chiefs and talking heads buy new cars. Canada spends 17k per Indigenous person as of 2024 and yet they have STI rates comparable to sub-Saharan africa and crimes rates like blacks. They are fast disappearing as a race, it is likely they will disappear as a racial category in our lifetime. More can be said on this and it is an interesting rabbithole, but I have neither the time nor interest. it is a sad fate.

>>8307 Highest interracial marriage rate and lowest fertility means extinction.

>>8270 >>8274 I am anal about having specific pockets and spaces in backpack, jacket etc. Else I am forgetful this way. Head is lost in thoughts.

I fully forgot about this site. Good to see thread is alive. Ktm finally laucnhed their big bikes in india. Although, just 1390 and 990 models and many dirts too but they are pricey. Unfortunately they missed out on 690 supermoto. Which is my abslolute fabourite. I dont even like 1390. Furthermore, 990 RC, which isnt just based on super duke chassis but developed from top to bottom as seperate product, did not arrive. Honda launched a v3 engine. Its p-twin at front and 1 at the back . Its 75 degree without any intercooler. Yes and its a high revving engine which will be put into sport bike. Reckon they could also use it in Afrika twin as it used to be V-twin initially. It has forced induction too. Electric compressor is sucking air in. Which may or may not help cool the engine. Tho, it imprives low torque, now you see why i think it may go in Afrika twin KTM has also showcased their 390 Enduro, adv, een SMC at EiCMA. Lineup doesnt just look like its moded 390 but the chassic has enough agility to provide different character. Enfield lauched the classic 650. Cherry Red look with hand lettering on tank is a must. Updated RS3 which is a sedan broke M2 ring record by 5 second. Hopefully, bmw learn their lesson LFA has successor, LFA but a v8 and doesnt sound anywhere as good vette c06 did the ring in 7,10,51 which is very disapointing Jaguar has stopped selling cars anywhere. Readying to go electric fully whcih is disapointing in many way. The new XJ sucessor was spotted testing.

>>8293 I remember being this enthusiastic about automobiles, it is a distant memory, looks like i am very old now

>>8263 You are aiming too high. A repair guy, has only basics, the rest he has to figure out hands on. He gets paid to do this. Not only is it fun, but his livelihood depends on it. He has his soul in the game. These guys don't need to be smart. In most cases they are not either. But they have feedback. They try things and know immediately if they did it right or wrong. > I am a could be What project you choose and how you structure it, determines your success more than your intelligence. You have to weigh the risks and design projects so your loss is small. This includes opening electronics.. Good thing about things like laptops is, they can be repaired easily. Even if you screw up power supplies or motherboards, in most cases they can be repaired, unless you get Apple or Microsoft. > Short attention span That is a serious issue.

>>8267 >What project you choose and how you structure it, determines your success more than your intelligence Absolutely. Smartness and intelligence is close to a myth when you are not in middle school anymore. It helps but what matters the most is how hard you can work >That is a serious issue. It's why self paced courses are never-getting-completed courses

>>8205 I keep telling anyone who will listen to my babble - we need to move away from America in our computing. No shame in forking off a Linux kernel (embedded) or the entire OS (for bigger computers). Unfortunately we don't have enough good programmers who will find the time from the 70 hour work week. So if such a thing does come into existence it's going to be a government undertaking by cdac or something and you can imagine how that will turn out.

>>8207 No access. Very weird !

>>8207 > Fuck indian court The only reason sci-hub isn't uploading papers after 2021 is because they hope that they will win in indian court. But I think they underestimate the corruption and greed of Indian system.

want to read how political ideologies rise, like rise of nazism and communism.

Pretty good straightforward black metal. Not mid tempo or slow. https://yewtu.be/watch?v=EHbUX6TM3vg

Seitan is a great source of protein and works well with non Indian dishes. Used it as meat substitute in Bolognese and the end result was good. Works well for asian cooking too

>>8289 hoping this will be me shortly

>>8271 Without such examination and elimination, we will never rise above our pettiness.

>>7926 Radcliffe sure did better than this by drawing the line Northwest of Delhi. Looks like they wanted to isolate Kashmir so they could annex it right after independence

>>8273 Didn't he just draw lines randomly ? He had no idea what he was doing and finished it in one night. Still agree with you. A lot of what brits did, was just to give as much power as possible to Pakistani's.

IIT Kanpur will now be admitting students into their computer science BTech degree program through Olympiad - 3 seats through INMO/IMO - 3 seats through INOI/IOI

completed cowboy bebop yesterday, just too good, is all i can say.

>>8110 It is a very heavy show that has stayed with me throughout all these years.

Original Gundam is super based. My cable guy used to pirate some channel which had it. I was too young to understand it, watching it now is very rewarding if you don't mind the old animation style and the cliches of old animes. We need good war propaganda in India. Not John and Sunny deol movies.

>>8122 It is tough to make friends. Depends on your age too. After 30 it takes high level skills to make new friends.

I thought discipline was conditioning myself to work through pain but I realized I don't care about pain because at least pain is something to experience. Real discipline is working through boredom and knowing you will never see the result of your work.

>>8199 This is based post. It is not universally applicable but it gets the spirit right.

https://youtu.be/S51c77Jt1AM?si=O0e1LYDjfQmhF0cu One of the greatest fights in boxing ever.

I only watch fights to see men get their shit wrecked. I support whichever side is more handsome and young.

I have the sense of humour of a child, where I still find this funny and amusing.

Finally got the action cam of my dreams. Few observations 1. Normal camera's allow you to focus on a subject. Action cam sucks for this 2. In theory you can VLOG with this, I don't like the look for it. But that is my preference 3. The saturated HDR bright look is not for everyone or every situation That said, I am happy. It is small , very tough, works in cold climates etc. I can go swimming with it, can click good pictures, can record excellent video while in motion. In terms of photos, I mostly will use it for landscapes. For other photos, I will stick to my Instax camera, since it is lot of fun to dial in pictures manually. I do appreciate photographers who setup a proper shot with a DSLR, a friend of mine comes up with stunning shots. But it is just not for me.

>>7346 his story is fake as fuck, still funny tho

>>7348 It got me lol'ing. Hence I wish it were true. Though I can believe people so autistic.

>>4306 >"except some random talk for 5 min with someone from college" you do have friends, just not close ones so try to make them close through shared interests and plainly lying about everything about your life and do it again and again till everyone believes it. i did this in 1st and 2nd year after which i did not have to lie anymore since i had made enough friends and had gotten my social skills back after covid.
