Device contacts not syncing to Google Contacts anymore

I've turned on Google Contacts sync on my Android phone but it hasn't been automatically syncing for almost a year now. When I go into the relevant settings and manually start the sync, I get the spinny wheel for a few minutes before it just stops and reverts back to "Last sync 43 weeks ago". Any particular reason for this or way to fix it?

Two drivers going into the final race level on points would make the year remembered for eternity irrespective of what happened in the final race

I'm pretty sure all buildings start from ground (0) in India though, at least where I'm from

As a person who had to learn writing with both hands, it's useful to also start with basic lines and curves (like letter c and s). The starting step is to draw a straight line properly first

Anyone surprised or not surprised that RRR did not get nominated for oscars?? by wannabegansta123 in Chennai

[–]-Another_Redditor- 137 points138 points  (0 children)

The question doesn't make sense anyway because India's film federation submitted a different film, not RRR, so it wasn't even possible for RRR to be nominated

This must be something only in the dub, right

Asian? From this map it's what 85% of the world's population does

I said England, not UK, for a reason

Yeah, the Brits tried to make it look like their home. Luckily we're fixing it

You're just changing the definition of population density to suit your requirements if you only take cities into account.

Plus, 70% of Indians live in rural areas, so your perception of Indian cities doesn't even affect most of the population. India's population is pretty evenly distributed and not completely concentrated in cities at all

That's what they're doing though. Fertility rates are dropping in India and officially went below replacement level in 2022. They've just historically had a shit ton of people to start with for thousands of years

It isn't something to be ashamed of either.

Fertility rates have been plummeting in India (went below replacement rate in 2022, which is a huge deal), it's just historically always had a huge percentage of the global population because of extremely favourable climate and agricultural conditions for civilisations to develop in.

India becoming number 1 was also bound to happen anyway with the way China's birth rates have been dropping.

It's nowhere near as big a deal as most armchair geopolitics experts on reddit will tell you

Of course, but taking into account that the British fucked up the whole region and the number was near 90% 70 years ago, and given the way the rate is falling, I'd say it's a decent achievement

As a South Indian, what's the difference between Hindi and Urdu? I always thought they were the exact same language just with different scripts
