Growing up, the Indian magic masala Lay’s flavour (aka the “blue Lays”) was the most popular flavour in my country. Idk when exactly but ig since around a decade the blue lays are gone, and you can now only get them by pre ordering for 5 times the price for each bag (I recently ordered a 12 bag shipment worth 1400 converted to Indian rupees), but here’s the catch, the regular green, yellow and red bags of Lays here are all imported from India and sold legally across stores for a cheap price. Why exactly does the company/government refuse to export a product they can make a lot of money from?

We had adopted an indian stray dog(female) 9 years ago. Few years ago I and my sibling moved out for higher studies/work and last year my mom passed away. My dad who is 65 is living alone with the dog. I'm planning to get my dad here to stay with me but COVID has pushed that. Because of his age he does not want to take care of the dog anymore. And I am looking for options where someone could adopt her, even with a monthly/yearly payment.

I don't live in India but was astounded at how from the top 3 Highest Population Countries only the USA is top 50 in Highest Cancer Rate it is Number 5. India is actually in the top 10 least Cancer rates by country and it has the 2nd highest population in the World. That is pretty remarkable, I was just trying to look at what the reasons for this could be. Obviously diet came first to mind and India being the largest Vegetarian country in the world is the first major factor and then of course lot less consumption of Alcohol compared to the U.S. Another thing is EMF radiation as India claims to have the strictest standards in the World it says are regulated as such that it won't effect health. The international norm is 4.5 W/sq m and 9W/sq m. But, India’s norms are 0.45 W/sq m and 0.9 W/sq m. Are these numbers true? Have any of you actually checked this? Also, does this also apply to Wi-Fi? With 5G how will this be maintained????????

Asking for a fren, pretty much the question, if they do Bsc via patrachaar (correspondence), will they be applicable to apply for IIT-JAM ? ; quite confused about this because their relatives are saying that it has no value as mostly failures who can not cope up with studies do it Tried googling about it but could not see related post about it most of them were about 10th and 12th, hence, need guidance about the issue, Thank you. (my\_qualifications- cleared 12th)

I am Hindu and had always believed that what BJP is Showing from 2014 is Just an appeasement for Hindus for Votes. Although I am an Atheist and I Respect every Religious Sentiments but I have been always fascinated by the Hypocrisy of the Jingoistic and Highly Religious people who are too blind to see where Modi Govt. is Taking our country. Anyway I recently found out that TABLA and DHOLAK are made from the Skin of Goat and Buffalo. In Hindu Religion when Any Sort of Pooja or Kirtan is Happening, I am 100% sure that DHOLAK is played by the People who sings songs about God which is very Hypocrite if you think about. People had been Lynched in this Country for having a just Suspicion that somebody had a Beef. On the Other side we are chanting songs and playing Dholak in front of holy God. Logic and Critical Thinking is Must for citizens of India otherwise people will not understand that they will Fight Everytime on these petty issues which in Reality are Filled with Irony and Hypocrisy.

Hello, I am a business administration graduate and am interested in psychology. But I'm completely clueless about how it works and how's the scenario here in India. It would be really helpful if anyone can help me out with this. Thanks!

My parents were always super busy . Both are working even now . Dads always out and mom returned around late afternoon and after that is busy with home . With dad it was easier opening up to him . But with mom it has always been difficult. She has Always been busy with work and home . Managing both . She never had time. Since she never had time she and I spent less time together . Specially after I graduated college and went to another state . Last few years I have went through many hardships , health problems , breakups , depression but never felt comfortable sharing anything with her . Instead the connection that I never had with her and comfort of mother’s love I never had I seeked it in all of my relationships as some sort of substitute . In fact I think that’s the reason I went into relationships. Since I never had anyone to share anything with . Today for the first time I vented to her and shared everything with her . And after listening to me carefully she just hugged me and gave her advice with compassion . She is always normally angry and never listens to me carefully but this time she did . After telling everything I felt so light and happy . I experienced mothers love directly I think for first time in my life . First time she was listening to me and listened to me with compassion and responded kindly to me instead of shouting . This has happened to me for first time in my life . After that I went to my room and tears started falling from my eyes . Now I understand what this mother’s love is they keep talking about in movies . At the end of conversation I was laughing and smiling . All my worries were brushed aside . I love her .

Is anyone using Cred? Is it any good? Honest reviews, please.

Hi All, I wanted to see if anyone here has visibility into official announcement re:visitors travelling to US. Starting when are fully vaccinated visitors allowed to fly to US? I am a US resident and my parents are back in India. I would love for them to fly out and be with us for the Diwali but unsure if the travel restrictions has been uplifted. Thank you!

Its unfixable and it also prevents me from driving. People often speak in a sympathetic tone to me as if i am a mentally disabled person 🙃. Theraphy isn't helping. I don't mind permanent reluctant loneliness but it would make my parents want to kill themselves and frankly Idk how to feel about that. Arranged marriage won't work because one i want to be child free and two i don't want someone to "settle" for me. So what do I do ? As more days go by death is starting to seem like a valid decision again. And please don't try to feed me that "other people have it worse" perception..it doesn't work anymore..

I am really confused which phone to buy and have boiled down the options to these: 1. Nord 2 2. MI 11 x 3. MI 11 Lite NE 4. Samsung M52 Now that the sale is around the corner, I wanted to grab the best phone at the best price. My requirement: Basic browsing, Social Media, Streaming, light photography. Want it to last long, have been using redmi note 4 for the last 4 years and still is running pretty good. I really don't want to buy Realme/ Iqoo or any other such brand.

I just passed +2 Science. Gave JEE mains got 86 percentile (I didn't went to any coachings despite my parents constant process for last 3 years). Can't get into any NITs. So what? Why the hell it is such a big deal? Why the hell me learning applied physics and comp. sci. from mitopencourseware or Khan Academy is not education but just getting a stamp on degree from any field from NIT/IIT is considered as education? Why the hell my parents are so bent on making me a corrupt state govt officier? Just now I got a big lecture telling me how computer science is a gimmick course and going to fade away in coming years because when he went to college 30 years ago there were no computer science. How the hell can I explain anything to them? Is there anywhere in India where I can study for REAL? Not like just get a stamp on your degree? I am not really sure on what I want to study but are there ANY place where I can explore things I like? I love playing with computer, want to get into robotics, I also love physics especially nuclear physics and astrophysics and research on these topics. Sorry for this rant but it feels like this country don't want me to do anything. I will also prefer to go aboard but don't know much and we don't have that much money too.

Does anyone know how to contract delhivery customer care? My parcel is showing that it's reached my state since the past 6 days and yet they are not delivering it to me.

I am planning to buy Moto edge 20 during big billion day sale . I have read some reviews about the mobile , they have listed 3 problems with the device currently.([https://youtu.be/NoYvF8ij2ig](https://youtu.be/NoYvF8ij2ig)) 1. wifi lag after some usage. 2. camera shake. 3. screen tear under sunlight. Will these problems be resolved in upcoming update? And also any good mobile under 30k with similar specification to moto edge 20 ?

My aunt is a former school teacher who used to teach classes 6th to 8th (Maths, Science and English), she doesn't have a job now because schools are closed. She is now looking to take online tuition classes for students. Is there any such site where teachers can find and take online classes for students? Any leads would be highly appreciated.

I will go first - From Punjab, people speak so damn loud. People be talking on a phone call and it feels as if they are talking to a person standing a mile away from them. Sorry, Dada Ji.

Not sure if this is the right sub to post this, but, I want to understand the possibility (if any) of finding a Job abroad from India.

Not an Indian, but whenever I see India mentioned on Reddit, several mocking comments follow. First is the "Designated Shitting Street" and "Poo in the Loo memes". Next come the "Show bobs" comments about Indians. Then you have people making comments about the cleanliness and poverty in India, and mockingly calling Indians Pajeets. Even the "Tech Support Saar" comments are pretty frequent and comments about scamming westerners. It seems to me that the overall impression about India is hugely negative, and Indians are mocked whenever a topic about them comes up on Reddit. So how do you feel about the ridicule Indians get on Reddit and how do you deal with the same ? Do you get angry ? Frustrated? Or are you indifferent to it all ? Thanks for the honest answers.

There was a TVC of a mobile network/phone, in which there are different montages of young people I think? Or of a couple, idk. I'm going mad trying to remember and find the song used in it. The only part I remember is of a guy sitting on terrace of a building while the singer sings "reply toh kar yes or naa mein". Good people of Reddit with good memory, please help.

I am planning to travel to New Delhi from Europe. Once I land in Delhi, I would have to take a domestic flight to reach my hometown. I want to ask fellow travelers who could share their experience with their recent travel to Delhi and then taking a domestic flight. There is no clear information on the Delhi Airport website about rules that have to be followed. What I know so far is this, please correct me if it is not correct. * If you are fully vaccinated you have to get a negative PCR test report before 48 hrs of your travel. * Upload the same report on the air suvidha portal * Carry your vaccination report with you. * Once you land in Delhi you have to go under a PCR test at the airport. And what happens after the PCR Test is not clearly anywhere documented. I want to book a domestic flight and want to be sure how many hours gap i should keep. can I book the airport hotel and rest there for few hours till the time the PCR result is out. Any other rules that I should be aware of it.

Would like to know the procedure after arrival. Thank you.

Recently joined the It industry and I'm working remotely. Due to my situation I need a backpack that can take two laptops. Figured someone else must have also faced this issue. Thx

Today, I saw 3 completely nude Jain monks while riding with my mother in Ahmedabad. I was completely shocked to see them naked. Are these monks common where you live? What was your reaction on seeing them naked for the first time?,

I'm surprised no one on this sub has talked about AIM yet (or if someone has, I haven't read it lol). So, I first heard of AIM when my dad was forwarding this letter written by the organization to the PM to not start inoculation of children and teenagers against COVID-19. There was a petition as well, which he signed. Glad to know my dad doesn't want me to get vaccinated although he told me before that it was 'my choice'. The letter was a follow-up to another letter they had sent to the PM, recommending him to halt the universal vaccination policy. What I found funny was that the letter started with "We, Indian Doctors for Truth". You would assume then, that it is a big congregation or association of multiple doctors, right? Twenty. Twenty doctors signed this letter: [Letter to Hon’ble Prime Minister – Awaken India Movement](https://awakenindiamovement.com/letter-to-honble-prime-minister/) Fine, let's leave that letter aside for a second. Maybe, AIM has some valid points. Maybe I misread or misinterpreted them. Let's check their official website: [Awaken India Movement – Inspired by the greater purpose of truth, freedom and justice.](https://awakenindiamovement.com/) If you're too lazy to click on the website, I don't blame you, lol. To sum it up, they have 10 demands: 1. No lockdowns. 2. No mandatory masks. 3. No mandatory social distancing. 4. No mandatory testing. 5. No mandatory vaccines. 6. No to GMO foods. 7. No 5G. 8. No tech censorship. 9. No new normal 10. No great reset. For the purposes of this post, I'm going to stick to the COVID-19 related demands. I don't want to reiterate why [GMOs can be useful for countries like India](https://youtu.be/7TmcXYp8xu4) when Kurzgesagt summed it up perfectly. Let's start with the website itself. It may seem innocuous and even legitimate at some parts, but, I think it will be hard to look over some photos of their peaceful protests of people holding posters that say, "Masks Cause Cancer", "We Can't Breathe", or, my personal favorite held by a guy wearing sunglasses, "Atleast 10 lakh sharks & 1000's of whales will be killed just for 1st dose of vaccine. Animal Rights? Is this humanity?" Once you read the articles that they say support their reasoning behind their demands, it gets worse. Most of their sources are either already debunked, or by right-wing Americans. One of their sources is the infamous video that was banned in YouTube and other social media platforms for spreading misinformation: [California Doctors Dr Eric and Dr Arthur debunk the COVID-19 Narrative in early 2020](https://awakenindiamovement.com/california-doctors-dr-eric-and-dr-arthur-debunk-the-covid-19-narrative-in-early-2020/) They even explain away the ban: "Youtube quickly deleted this video as the truth is stronger than the lies they present to us. Everything that they talk about can be verified via independent research." Other "sources" include click-baity articles with titles like, "Nasal Swabs with Nanoparticles Cause Brain Damage!", "Long Term Mask Use May Contribute to Advanced Stage Lung Cancer", "Face Masks Make You Stupid" and, under the Lockdown section, "How The Oral Polio Vaccine Can Cause Polio". smh. I read those articles. The polio one? It's a transcript of a 3 minute podcast, where this dude basically said that polio is emerging again in developing countries because they were using live vaccines and the CDC is checking it out. No sources stated. The lung cancer thing? A study that found out that certain strains of bacteria are found more in patients with lung cancer who use masks frequently as compared to lung cancer patients who don't. Most of the articles they link have no sources listed. When they do, it's a solid source, but they either misread it or take the wrong conclusions. I'll be honest, they do have some technical looking letters and documents in their [page](https://awakenindiamovement.com/topics/legal/important-documents-letters/). I almost fell for that shit. I almost thought they made some fine points. Until I read the fine print. For example, their [Scamdemic Document](https://awakenindiamovement.com/the-truth-of-the-scamdemic/). I found some interesting gems. I'm directly quoting them: 1. " In this pandemic it is the actual ingredients (adjuvants) in the vaccine and the highly toxic 5G frequencies, which are the damaging environment and thus the causal factor of the numerous adverse reactions and actual deaths we are currently seeing." I don't think I have to debunk this. Someone clearly read into 2.0 too much and was traumatized by seeing the little CGI birdies die. 2. "The Covid-19 vaccines have several toxic adjuvants in them like Aluminum Hydroxide, Imidazoquinolinone and 2-Phenoxyethanol that cause cellular damage upon vaccination.." Aluminum hydroxide is a common ingredient in antacids, imidazoquinolinone (its compounds) is used in antiviral and antiallergic creams, and 2-phenoxyethanol is a common preservative in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. I don't see how they are deadly when we ingest/use them everyday. 3. "What is disturbing is that the nasal test swabs used for the RT-PCR Test and RAT Test contain Aluminum Hydroxide, which is a known neurotoxin." First of all, I personally couldn't find any source that stated that Aluminum Hydroxide is present in nasal test swabs. Second, yes, aluminum is a neurotoxin. But, in order to get affected, you would have to be exposed to a lot of it. Like, a LOT. Here's my source, because I'm not like AIM: [The Health Effects of Aluminum Exposure (nih.gov)](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5651828/) Well, I could go on, I'll maybe make a part 2 because I need to go play Fortnite with my friend now, lol. AIM would be hilarious if it weren't causing so much harm and spreading so much misinformation and disinformation. Spread the word. If anyone falls for AIM, link this post, I don't mind.

I have always been somewhat of an above average student, 92% in 10th and 85% in 12th (PCM). After that I took a year drop for JEE but had a full blown panic attack during the exam and screwed it big time. After that I was an emotional wreck, crying for hours at end. Somehow prepared for BITSAT but could only manage a meagre score of 270. After that a relative of mine with whom I was very close, suggested me to quit engineering and pursue Chartered Accountancy (CA). Being a dumb and hurting 19 YO I blindly agreed to this without even properly researching about the course. I studied my ass off for 2.5 months and cleared the foundation in one go. For my CA intermediate I shifted to Hyderabad to stay with the said relative of mine, even quit my B.com for this. I idealized him a bit too much and blindly followed his advice. After it the decline started. I was staying at home and had zero social interaction. Lost interest in most of the subjects as they required tremendous amount of rote learning. Tried to stay in touch with my school friends but everyone was busy with their college life. I started binge eating and gained 20+ kgs of weight. It goes without saying that I failed my first two attempts of CA inter which were held in November 2018 and may 2019. Failing would be a bit of an overstatement as I did not even prepare for the exams. It was a trance of being unproductive and then being extremely guilty for being unproductive. In this phase I started drinking, smoking and self harming. I hated myself so much, the way I looked and the way I was leading my life. Even attempted suicide on my 21st Birthday. My mother visited Hyderabad and saw the cut marks beneath the shirt. She asked me to leave Hyderabad and shift to Kolkata with a friend. I planned to attempt the May 2020 but the pandemic happened and the exams were postponed. Many of my family members contracted covid, including me and it was very rough ride. I was also in a long distance relationship during this whole time, it was quite toxic. In the beginning of 2021 I found out that she was cheating on me with random strangers from plethora of the dating apps available. It was a rough breakup and my reaction to it was also quite unreasonable. I went to a psychiatrist and after multiple tests got diagnosed with severe depression, anxiety and a personality disorder. It's the end of 2021 and I have nothing to show for the last 5 years. I don't have a graduation degree and I'm just a 12th pass. I have completely lost my will to live and I am seriously contemplating suicide. I'm filled with regrets and don't see a way out of this. I learnt python and it was quite fun. I don't want to continue CA but don't know what else to do. Should I take admission in B.Tech? Would it be any good as I would be joining a tier-3 college with a 5 year long education gap. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you for listening, means a lot.

I had purchased insurance for my Kindle from OneAssist. The plan is expired and I don't plan to use their services anymore. I requested them to delete my records from their database but they are not doing so. They are providing stupid reasons like *you've been our valuable customer in the past* and so on. What can be done to ensure that my account is deleted from their database? Thank you!

What extra skill can I acquire in the 3 years while pursuing BCom? Either it be as simple internship or working for an NGO. Something which may help me in the future. Thank you. If this does not belong here, I will remove it.

Well idk if this is the right sub or not but here i go. Idk where to start but i got 85 percentile in this year jee mains and idk if i can get a good college for computer science (government or private). The thing is i wasted my 12th std. Did not study properly nor did practiced. I am feeling ashamed even writing this. I feel like if take a drop this year focus properly on studying for the next 4 to 5 months i can get a good Nit or college. My 12th Hsc result is 97% . I live in Mumbai.l and has also given Mht cet but i don't think so i can get good college in Mumbai ot Maharashtra even though i prepared more seriously for it. So should i take a drop or can i get a good college this year for Computer science. Thank you in advance.

This is for my kid sister who is studying her 9th grade. She intends to study psychology in future and wants to go abroad for higher studies. I am an introvert and do not have many friends/relatives to guide me. Hence, posting here. Could you please help with 1. what she should be studying after 12th 2. Are marks very important?

Hi, In a few days, I'll be starting my first year of college as a B Tech student in electrical engineering.I have joined a tier 3 state government college since I wasn't able to qualify for JEE advance, nor did I score well in my mains. Based on what I know, I won't have to prepare for competitive exams until my third year; therefore, I want to make up for all the years I spent on JEE coaching by learning something that will contribute to my career and help me in life. What skills must an electrical engineer possess? If I watch online videos to make up for the outdated syllabus, will that compensate for my degree from a tier 3 college? As I enjoy coding, I intend to study it on my own. However, I am not interested in working as a programmer. I'm not interested in going into teaching(because I have no interest in teaching) and business (because of financial issues). But from what I've heard, the current job situation is not good except for computer science students. Also, my family situation is such that I cannot rely on anyone financially after my B Tech, so I will need a job and I would like to learn anything that can help me secure that job and if possible financial independence earlier or something that I can keep as a side business.

A client from UK sent me a payment on my SBI account, say for X GBP. I got a mail today from [immac@sbi.co.in](mailto:immac@sbi.co.in) about an advance intimation of an inward remittance on my account. In that mail, there were two amounts, a 'remitted amount', which is X GBP, and a 'settled amount' that is a little more than 90% of X (dont know if its a fixed number, or some percentage of X). I wanted to know what the difference between these amounts are, and how the 'settled amount' is calculated. Some more info on this, I have been working long with this client, and this is the first time I got this email. I am almost sure that they didn't change the method by which they pay. And all previous payments had very little cost cuts, never exceeding 2-3% of the amount. Adding the most appropriate flair on this post

For example, they manufacture 10 motorcycles and 3 of them have some design or finishing mistakes or stickers got damaged where they were being manufactured. Later, they reach the showroom and finally found out that 3 devices that were faulty. What would a brand do with those motorcycles?

I am planning to start an Amazon FBA business in India. I have a fair bit of idea about the business and did some research.

So we have a very old dabba TV in our house and thinking of upgrading it. We want our new TV to have: - support netflix / Amazon prime / youtube and others are add-on. - should be 4k. - have HDMI port so we can connect to laptop sometime. - 40/43 inch preferred ( smaller can consider if it's a better option) As most of the indian family, we won't upgrade it for atleast next 6-8 years. We have Jiofiber connection with us but ain't using it's set-up box as we didn't had supported TV. We also have Airtel dth connection. There are two options Smart TV or Non-Smart TV + fire stick. We don't know anything about TVs. So please let me know your suggestions.

We all know that police is corrupt, but can anybody tell me how much they can earn via bribes.A SHO in Delhi gets money from fake cases, hafta of business owners in his region, big income from high profile cases. Consider it as an interview question in a consulting company.

Unless specified otherwise, I’ll be quoting: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Make\_in\_India](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Make_in_India) Objective 1 was to **increase the manufacturing sector's growth rate to 12-14% per annum**. The growth rate of manufacturing averaged **6.9% per annum between 2014–15 and 2019-20**. That’s almost half of the 12% and less than half of the 14% per annuum growth rates respectively that the Government of India aspired to achieve. Objective 2 was to create 100 million additional manufacturing jobs in the economy by 2022. Quoting [The Economics Department of Ashoka University’s Centre for Economic Data and Analysis’](https://ceda.ashoka.edu.in/about-us/) or CEDA’s [CEDA-CMIE Bulletin No 4: May 2021](https://archive.is/TXIl0) which is based on the [The Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy’s](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centre_for_Monitoring_Indian_Economy) or CMIE’s, monthly time-series of employment by industry >**From employing 51 million Indians** in 2016-17, **employment in the \[Manufacturing\] sector declined** by **46% to reach 27.3 million in 2020-21**. This indicates the **severity of the employment crisis in India predating the pandemic**. **On a YoY basis, it employed 32% fewer people in 2020-21 over 2019-20**. It had seen a growth of 1% (YoY) in 2019-20. **This has happened despite the Indian government’s push to improve manufacturing in the country with the ‘Make in India’ project**. Under the project, India sought to create an additional 100 million manufacturing jobs in India by 2022 and to increase manufacturing’s contribution to GDP to 20% by 2025. Objective 3 was to ensure that the manufacturing sector's contribution to GDP is increased to 25% by 2022 (later revised to 2025). In reality, **the share of manufacturing dropped** from 16.3% of GDP in 2014-15 **to 15.1% in 2019-20**. PS: India jumped to 63rd place out of 190 countries in the world Banks' 2019 Ease of Doing Business Index from 130th in 2016. The only problem? >In September 2021, **the World Bank announced that it would be discontinuing** the Doing Business report following the release of an independent report detailing the specifics of the 2020 and 2018 irregularities, including detailed explanations of how senior leaders at the bank manipulated data and pressured experts to change rankings and methodology to improve scores for certain countries.\[34\]\[11\] [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ease\_of\_doing\_business\_index#2020\_data\_irregularities\_controversy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ease_of_doing_business_index#2020_data_irregularities_controversy) credit: u/sad_chain_7382

I'm just trying to find out about what the swinging scene in India is like. I see that there are a lot of Reddit profiles with a lot of voyeurism but does it go beyond that? Are there exclusive circles of married couples hosting swinging parties? Just an open discussion, request to not spam.

During the past weeks when I have been working on [**my petition**](https://www.change.org/RevenueKarnataka), I have come to realize how localized some issues are. While it is okay to rant on social media and r/india, it may also help to refresh your high-school civics lessons – remember union list subjects, state list subjects, and panchayat raj? Central and state officials and elected leaders have clearly segregated accountability. Government officials make us run around by pointing fingers across these boundaries. For example * **Street light not working,** water supply shut off in your neighborhood, potholes on local roads? Start with the local utility’s helpline or complaint app. If not, call your local councilor/corporator. You may need to look up the ward/subdivision of city council you live in. * **Issue with schools and colleges?** Start with local education board officials. If that doesn’t help, approach the local MLA/MLC or MP if a centrally managed school (like KV) or college * **Rowdy menace in your neighborhood?** Start with local Police station, move up to Commissioner. If that doesn’t help, approach the local MLA/MLC * **Issues with land title?** Start with local city council or panchayat. Move up the hierarchy upto the DC. Eventually approach the local MLA/MLC and then the minister (like I am trying to do with [my petition](https://www.change.org/RevenueKarnataka)) * **Price of Gas, Petrol etc?** Sure, blame BJP, Modi and the center * etc etc Learn to hold locally elected officials accountable. Only then officials and babus will fall in line !

I am a student, I am repeating a year for the second time I have already hit rock bottom, I am obese, I have anxiety. Maybe *Maybe* I am addicted to porn too. I never realised what kind of guy I am, and one day I just realised while I was playing games like “huh, I am in really really horrible place right now” So I took a day of thinking and listing out all the things that are wrong with me right now. I have always expected someone else to help me and save me from depression but that was naive of me. Some people may have tried to help me too but I was probably to arrogant to take their advice to heart. That’s probably the reason i ended up this way in the first place. I am really angry at my self, I think enough is enough, I am turning over a new leaf right now, I have already took necessary steps to make my self better i have started to go to gym, I didn’t know how to ride a scooter despite having one I asked my friend to help me learn it and finally learned it. I have already started to prepare for my exams I have had it with me stuck in a single place and not going forward, I have started to learn programming as well, and while I am doing all of these stuff I am in need of money I don’t want to ask my parents because I have already wasted a lot of it by failing two times, so I think I should pick up a part time job. But I don’t know how to find a job because I have never tried to find one before, are their any online part time jobs I can do from home ? I have a laptop I can use it for the job. So I just want advice on how do I go about finding a job that is suitable for me.

Hi, I'm from West Bengal and I'm thinking of enrolling in GITAM for BCA. So I just want to know if it's worth it or not. If anyone here has done their BCA from GITAM, I'd really appreciate if you can answer some of my questions regarding the college. 1: How's the crowd in BCA department and in GITAM in general? 2: Is this a recently started course in GITAM? 3: My cousin told me that don't trust "deemed" universities cuz I might face problems if I opt for further studies from abroad. Is this true? 4: Is it worth it to take admission in GITAM instead of normal MAKAUT colleges in West Bengal? 5: Are pgs available near college?

As someone who has nothing to do with the tech industry, I am baffled at how much people in IT are getting paid these days. I know people from school who were mediocre, went to some shitty private engineering college and they still have packages upwards of 15 lakhs. People from normal, medium-quality colleges are making 25 lakhs plus. How is this possible and does it have something to do with Covid? And is it sustainable?

Hi I'm from mumbai and I've completed my graduation in bcom (accounting and finance) during lockdown. Couldn't find job in corporate so started working for an accountant. For last 9 months I'm working for an accountant Monday to Saturday and making 10k per month which is not enough for even survival. I can't leave my job and study full-time cause i need to support my family. I've never had any career guidance so can you suggest me any career option or a professional course which i can manage to complete while working full-time? You can suggest me any exam too which can help me get a better job.

So a friend of mine kept sharing WhatsApp forwards and stuff on political stuff and propaganda. I clearly told him I am not into politics or such things and not to expect any reply from my side. But he continued to send it to me and kept asking my opinion (What do you think, with many ???) for several weeks. Latest being that how successful Indian vaccines are, and it is right step to ban pfizer and Moderna and how successful we have become. He kept asking me what I think, so I finally replied back: 1. All salts and base for the vaccines come from China and US. 1. COVISHIELD is not an Indian vaccine. It is manufactured by Serum but it was developed in UK. 2. If India had acted wisely, at this point of time Pfizer, Moderna and many other vaccines would have been manufactured in India (Like COVISHIELD) and we would be supplying it to the world 2. Are you going to stop taking weapons from US. 3. When are you joining an Indian company (He works in US based company) 4. And lastly, I don't think you would be trying you luck for H-1B visa this time. ​ After this he just blocked me. I know this because I have another number (dual WhatsApp) where I can see his profile. Is this normal? I remember earlier from college days, such disagreements were common but no one avoided or blocked each other for that.

Tolstoy and Gandhi **Mahatma** **Gandhi was inspired by Leo Tolstoy** not only in respect of non-violence and non-violent resistance but also by his idea of 'Bread Labour' and its concomitant idea of 'getting off the backs' of others including the poor. He developed Tolstoy's theory of 'Bread Labour' into a full-fledged theory of the duty and right to work. For those of you who missed history classes or a foreigner who doesnt know what I am talking about Here is a summary Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was an Indian lawyer, anti-colonial nationalist and political ethicist who employed nonviolent resistance to lead the successful campaign for India's independence from British rule and in turn inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world . Count Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy, usually referred to in English as Leo Tolstoy, was a Russian writer who is regarded as one of the greatest authors of all time. He received nominations for the Nobel Prize in Literature every year from 1902 to 1906 and for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1901, 1902, and 1909. They often exchanged letters ​ https://preview.redd.it/425w44ppykq71.png?width=300&format=png&auto=webp&s=63d33d3e10f29804a7d70a03636f83b8d1d7efbe https://preview.redd.it/zirq70hrykq71.png?width=500&format=png&auto=webp&s=1ac5e0f632e3bf34768db1fbe37b04fafe33a68c Above one is an example The main thing I want to focus on is friendship although Leo was a Christian and Gandhi was a Hindhu. They both respected each others beliefs and still were very good friends to each other This shows us that pls dont be racist,se\*ist, judge people on marks, etc .. Cuz the small things in life like friends and family moments are wayy better than any material goods you can buy This is what I got from my perspective share yours below

I(25F) live in Delhi and my hometown is in Patna. Every time I book a cab from Ola or Uber, I face a lot of issues. This happens in both the cities. Even in other cities, like when I visit Pune, Mumbai or Chandigarh. I face it everywhere 1. It's hard to find drivers in the first place. There are so many incidents where, no driver was around for like 15 minutes of continuously searching for a cab. Even though they showed a few cabs on the map near my area. I live in Patel Nagar, Delhi btw. 2. The drivers after accepting the ride will instantly call and ask for my drop location. And if the location is not Airport or some place that's really far like 20 to 25 km the driver will say no and ask me to cancel the ride. Funny part is that if the location is Noida, Gurgaon or some place outside city. Still the driver will say no. This is the most frustrating one. Sometimes I need to spend 40 to 60 minutes on a cab booking for a 20 mins ride. 3. The driver will not call, not even answer the phone. Will cancel himself after making me wait for 5 mins. 4. The driver drives the vehicle in opposite direction. *Once I booked a cab from Old Delhi Railway Station to Patel Nagar. The driver who was 2 mins away. Drove away to Noida. I didn't cancel the ride. And booked another ride from Ola.* 5. The Driver asks me to change the payment method to Cash, and wouldn't have a change with him. Like you really expect me to carry 247 Rupees all in change? 6. On an average you have to spend 30 minutes on phone, searching for the cab to finally get a driver who is willing to take you there. My male friends say that it is easier for me to get a ride because of my name. They experience a lot more issues while booking a cab. 7. Prices are always hiked. There is always a surge of 1.5X, 2X, sometimes even 2.5X. Once I paid 450+ Rupees for a 20 minute, 7 Km ride from CP to my home. I had to accept it because there weren't any options available 8. I don't know if anybody else faced this. I was booking a cab from Hauz Khas(a nightclub hub in Delhi) at 12.30 AM, I think. I was getting a surge of 2.5X as demand was high. They were charging me 650+ something. My male friend tried booking at the same time. For the same drop location. And he was getting 350ish something. Ola was charging different rate to both of us. Double than normal for me as I am a girl and it was past midnight. This happened a days ago. Is there anything that we can do about this? Or are now on the mercy of these companies?

Hey guys! Need pen Recommendations from you guys. I have been using pilot pens from about a year, they are great but I think it is bit overpriced and expensive for daily use as a student.

What I am looking for: * Smooth writing experience (roller pen preferably) * Refillable * Available in multiple colours

I'm trying to understand the social context of Rajasthan which made the lawmakers to make this move instead of criminalizing child marriage. Why is this practice still relevant in Rajasthan?

I am not sure if this belongs here. But, what's the salary break up like? How different is the actual in hand vs expected in hand?

Can it even be termed as management consulting in its truest sense?

To tell about the aspects in the phone I care about . . 1.I personally enjoy taking photographs through my phone camera,and concerned about battery and it's charging time so that should be good for the price. 2.Doesn't need to be a complete gaming phone but should not heat up quickly(for at least 3 years it should be useful)(max I play Pubg,clash of clans sometime) 3.I'm also looking for new inclusions in the phone like 5G,90/120hz screen display(more than 1080p is preferable), 6gb ram/128gb storage and above are a must 4. And I'm not going for Vivo/Oppo for sure Couple of options I saw with my preference were: 1. Xiaomi 11 Lite NE 2.Samsung M52 5g I'm sure many of us will be in this dilemma this festive season with so many options of phone at this price point, so please suggest the best smartphone you think there is at this price, and also which one is better in the above 2 smartphones which I mentioned?

Hey y'all! 👋 I got a couple questions for you guys! Im a Canadian dude planning a road trip through your country in the next couple month or so. However, Im finding it hard to come by information that will impact whether this trips gets put on hold or not- due to the pandemic. Just a heads up- I am vaccinated and require a pcr coming in. 1)I know India is a big ass country and each state handles things differently... that being said, how are things down there right now? Is there an Outdoor mask policy being implemented? Are all shops, stores, and historical sites open to the public? 2) I've looked around and I cant seem to find accurate info on whether India is accepting international travellers right now. Any info on that would be great.. I may have more questions later but thats it for now. Thanks

I am a avid player of video games and enjoy a lot of stratergy games like Rise Of Kingdoms: Lost crusade . I have very good and old account there , as a way to celebrate my good results i tried to buy some stuff in the game but it wasnt working , so i did lot of research to find that it had been banned AGAIN ​ It was first banned in 2019 with PUBG ,Tik Tok , and other Chinese apps , but its ban got lifted and i made a second account to start playing again , and was happy until yesterday when i found out it was banned again . The reason they say is , “**prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of India, defence of India, security of state and public order**." bitch how the hell is a GAME prejudicial to India , It has good indian commander and there were talks about adding an Indian CIV in the game , and again How is PUBG harming out sovereignty ? They defend there action by saying that Indian Games benefited Do these boomer shitstains dont know that , how horrible Indian Mobile games are , they have some shity fighting machinic and Some sexual ads to get some children to play the game , half of these Indian games have viruses and DEMAND you pay before continuing , Like I get it some mobile games are pay to win but free to play players can still have fun this shows how horrible these people are and it requires the ban of 47+119 games and apps to benefit these horrible Indian games , another point how are the incidents where Indian soldiers lost their life related to these , most Chinese products in India are plastic toys phones and cars , if you can stop those or ban them then we can see , but doing bitch move like this and then saying look we stood up to China , but no they are too afraid to cut the major things china gives us because public will get angry but when we do to games then its ok , like how much of a shitty mentality is this man

I recently applied for a jio fiber connection and wanted to know how far can i keep the landline from the ONT modem? My office is about 50 feet from the modem. Would that be too much cable? Would the modem be able to power the landline phone? Will there be call quality loss? Thanks! EDIT: Thanks for the quick response guys. really appreciate it. So i measured the length required. Turns out i need around 70 ft of rj11 cable to connect my phone to the router. Thing is i absolutely do not trust jio build quality. I know the jio fiber ont is going to be weak. So keeping that in mind. Would the fiber ont be able to power up and give good voice quality over 70 feet of cable(which is also going through a lot of turns and bends while going to the office)? Or am i just overthinking this?

Hi, so graduated 2020, I do have a job from the placements (IT not my core), but now I have intentions to go for Mtech, or atleast a job in electronics and instrumentation (my core). I have always been interested in my subjects but was never able to score well during university (KTU) exams due to reasons. I gave up on this dream of working with electronics because of my low cgpa, but even after a year of giving up, it still keep coming back now and then, so I'm here asking you, how bad is it?(my cgpa) Would it be a blocker if I intend to pursue this so called "dream". (My cgpa 7.06 translate to 66.8%)

Hi, Thinking of buying the tab s7+ from samsung official website using my corporate email (I don't work for Samsung) in India.

I fear I might switch companies in a few months maybe and lose access to this email account? Thanks in advance.

I am a 31 yr old single female who is the breadwinner in the family. Covid times in, my relatives have been pestering my mom and me about my impending marriage. It is not that I haven't tried or I am disinterested. I feel, I have been alone throughout and somehow managed my life, the longing for a companion isn't much. I agree that it is really nurturing and amazing to have a partner but I still feel dejected. Sometimes my relatives taunt my mom that she is the one who is not getting me married. But they hardly know how difficult it is being a single parent and they are not responsible for my life. Sometimes I wonder if my father was around ( he passed away 14 years ago) , things would have been different but I need to accept things the way it is. I wish I could be happy irrespective of whether I am single or married.. Just sharing it here bcz being anonymous helps

During my whole childhood, I was not a rebellious kid in front of elders or any authoritarian-like people. Every elder I have come across like(d) me, (Teachers, relatives, and whoever was elder to me) because I was showing them my good side to get validation. I never disagreed with anyone. If you were with me asked me to give you my pen then I would have given you that pen despite having only the pen I was writing with (Never did this but just to give example) So growing up (I don't know) maybe I kind of faked my persona to go through life with them(something that I'm realising now). I acted as a good kid. Never told 'NO' to things. I was not like this in front of my friends that much, even though I was almost the same with them. They knew my other side. Tbh I was someone else inside. I never raise a voice against my parents, whatever they told me I did. I never did any wrong. My conversation with my parents was always about academics or it revolved around that. Whenever I tried to talk with them, this was almost always the answer "Go study" or "See how your dad is earning hard". Maybe I was disturbing them. My parents have always loved me. Over years I started spending more time with computers and the internet whenever I was at home. This all started around age 12. I don't hate them either. But I didn't know I was getting into a sneaky trap. So eventually I started getting into Porn and games. Life was not hard, it was all me and my surrounding. Fast forward to 18, I was depressed in life for various reasons. One of them was a romantic relationship. The breakup happened and with a broken heart, I carried on with life. I went to college with depression, took 5 years to complete a 4-year course. Started getting away from friends, family, relationships, etc. Tried to attempt suicide at 21. Never told this to anyone because I never jumped. Now I'm 25, a part of me wants to rage and fucking shout at people's ears but another tells me not to because I'm scared of people. Hell, I'm even scared of my parents to talk to. I don't talk to them much, neither anyone in life, and this has been going on for 7-8 years. I just spend my day in my room secluded from the world. I don't come out much unless there is a need. I have been suffering silently on my own. My parents would help me if I say but I don't even ask for help anymore. I want to redo all my relationships and especially with my parents. I talk to them (and generally everyone) with the voice of a robot, I don't express emotions with the voice I just squeakily talk. How do I get all my voice back both literally and figuratively? P.s: Today I overheard my mom telling my aunt that "because they were harsh during my childhood I'm now like this - not going outside or doing anything with life". Harsh means all those replies they gave as mentioned above. If you reached this end, Thank you for reading.

A month ago, I started seeing a therapist for video consultations from Practo **Previous (not seeing anymore)** 1st psychologist: She told me that I have 2 choices and I should just make one. That was all. 2 appointments (combining less than 1 hour and she felt her work is done. Obviously, it didn't help me at all **Current (had around 3 appointments so far)** 2nd psychologist: She seems to be going into professional psychological assessments and seem to be working on the longer picture. She is not helping me at all with the current problems. I seem to be having anxiety attacks since this Saturday, and I told her but she ignored that and started focussing on the assessment results today. 3rd psychologist: She seems to be in the current moment. She asked me to start writing notes on how I am feeling every day. During the appointment, she just discuss them. But she talks a lot and doesn't listen to me much though. I am clearly confused. What should a good psychologist look like? I probably don't want to keep seeing 2 psychologists, but I am not sure who has the right approach. Or should I just try a completely different one?

I am a millenial and my parents and many from their generation became financially independent without any real financial backing from their parents. Did everything from scratch. Getting a decent job, Moving to a city, buying a house, sending kids to school etc Now a lot of people my generation feel they don't have enough of their own to have a family. It's impossible for many of us to buy properties like our parents did. Its baffling coz I don't think that the previous generation was any more employable than we are. I don't believe they were smarter its just that they got easy opportunities and they knew how to stick to a job at least the govt ones coz they have no other option. They also had fewer options for colleges and universities. We have more avenues than we ever had and a lot of the private jobs pay decent. And yet we keep hearing from people how the current kids don't deserve jobs and that the new generation needs their parents financial support to feel secure. Of course, I am from Mumbai. It must take much less in other cities to become financially stable. Yet, the whole current generation is dumb and unemployable' is something I don't really agree with.
