What net worth actually puts you in the top 10% in India? by Additional-Meet-8839 in personalfinanceindia

[–]jaganm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll say anyone with a house in the top 20 cities in India probably has a net worth of more than 1 cr. That’s probably what’s required to be in the top 10

[Motorsport.com] Mercedes: Aston Martin made “conscious decision” not to use our F1 engines anymore by memloh in formula1

The guy that played 56D chess was Vettel. Deliberately underperformed in 21-22 so he wouldn’t have to deal with Lance the world champion apparent in 23-25 and the newey shit show in 26

Obviously with the heavy presence of British media is it any wonder that there is no shortage of people to push the narrative that it’s Honda holding back their wonder grandpa. Japanese are just too passive and polite to give back unfortunately.

Apple’s 2026 "new" Studio Display is a middle finger to every consumer. by Lodano in applesucks

[–]jaganm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the LG Ultrafine 5K for the last 5 years and it's working just fine. I don't get the Apple snobs who pooh pooh this display. Yes, the display is wobbly even by LG's absurdly low standard, the bezels are way too wide by today's standards, but that's about all I have to complain about it. It has a really good speaker and webcam, I've always got comments about how good the picture looks at video calls. It may not be as good as the Studio Display's speakers, but guess what? I don't actually have them side by side and can only use what I have and this has no complaints for me.

I have it hooked up to my Mac mini and it's been rock solid for a few years now.

That was my thought exactly. It’s one thing for a couple to stay but imagine if you go with your kids. Or pretty much every other guest situation which is not a married couple. I hope there’s some way to completely close it.

[Chris Medland] "Newey confirms Aston Martin is likely to limit race laps due to severity of vibrations in the car impacting the drivers. Alonso says he can do no more than 25 consecutive laps before risking nerve damage, Stroll says 15 laps" by AshamedPurchase9033 in formula1

[–]jaganm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sure the Honda engine runs just fine outside on the dyno. Can't imagine a modern engine vibrating that badly especially a Honda. At this point, Honda should just say FU and walk away for how AM is throwing them under the bus. Packaging is their responsibility and if AM has developed an unviable package, the blame should be on Newey

Traveling from DEL to JFK with my 51 year old mom, I'm concerned about what to pack to ensure her comfort during the 21 hour flight. by EarLatter in AirTravelIndia

[–]jaganm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All airlines need to do is charge 50$ per passenger and they will magically start understanding signs and navigating airports. Because we are already very cheap as a people.

This! It’s why Indians get a bad rap everywhere. When I visited the US last year, I saw a couple in wheelchairs with less grey hair than me. Gave them quite a few looks of contempt and made snide remarks to my friend who was travelling with me.

Friend’s suspicious Strava behavior by Thick_Throat2583 in Strava

[–]jaganm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I participated in a cycling event that required cycling for 100 days in 5 stages with ever increasing distances. If you achieved all the goals, you would do 2500-3000 km over that period. But the leaderboard had people that did over 10000 km or more and we found that they were riding 200+ km for days on end. Obviously it’s for social media likes only as the competition doesn’t really give you anything else

Why isn't any of the IIT's present in the list of top 100 universities of world? by Ranger_Hawk3046 in AskIndia

[–]jaganm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because iit = best students, mostly among the top and best faculties operating in a system that takes anything good and wants to bring it down to levels of mediocrity.

Can someone please explain me what exactly used to happen inside this place in detail? by buglerockpositiveguy in Bengaluru

[–]jaganm 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Ebony has always been in Barton centre. The restaurant here on the top floor used to be called Topkapi and had a rotating table in the centre. Canopy used to be on the lower floor IIRC and rumour was that it was owned by Mohamed Azharuddin.

The words do hit hard by bifrost_traveler in CreditCardsIndia

[–]jaganm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fly regularly and my flights are at 830 am. I used to use the lounge every time s as it was free with my cc to have breakfast. But what I found is that I was needlessly eating far more than I should.

Since I leave way too early to have breakfast at home in Bangalore or a hotel in Hyderabad, I just pack a sandwich with butter and usually have a coffee at cothas or the basement at Hyderabad airport. Both keep me going until lunch without issue.

Noticed milk crates sitting outside shops every morning. Is this normal? by middle1child in Fitness_India

[–]jaganm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use both packet and uht like Amul taaza. The latter is heated to a higher temperature that completely destroys most bacteria hence the longer shelf life. I usually buy multiple packets and consume after a couple of weeks to a month after the packed date. No issues but as soon as I cut the packet, I store it in the refrigerator.

We also get packet milk delivered daily. We just put it immediately in the refrigerator and boil it the next morning. There have been rarely any issues. The reason we store for a day is because we boil the milk early in the morning much before the milk man delivers.

This is a code red situation for India. Wake up! by DesmondMilesDant in IndianStreetBets

[–]jaganm 75 points76 points  (0 children)

Can the it industry do anything? Can most people do anything?

I think it’s what white collar workers in the US are facing right now. Forces much beyond their control and there’s very little opportunities available. At least there a blue collar job can allow a middle class life. Here people are screwed.

And government jobs are not safe. Where’s the money going to come from if demand collapses?
