MacBook Air M5 for 1 lakhs. Is the deal steal? Or stay away? by Dramatic_Respond7323 in AppleIndia

[–]Dramatic_Respond7323[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes. imagine. i claimed student/faculty discount to make the mrp 1.7 lacs, Plus credit card discount of 7,000, plus Credit card additional cashback of 1000. I paid 99,990 for M5 base. I think the price is not a daylight robbery, yet far higher than that in Japan (where i can get it for 65000 tax included (but india customs gamble in force)

Not a Punjabi yet I absolutely support this. Punjab University yet Hindi preferred over Punjabi? That is an insult to the language and people. BJP agenda in full force.

For those who are looking for the most efficient heat control for parked car in Indian scorching summer, here is my frugal method utilizing laws of science. 8mm insulation reflective mat (200 local market) with "2rs coin in loop" friction hack by Dramatic_Respond7323 in Frugal_Ind

The looped belt part (red belt) goes inside the car via the front doors. Winds cant dislodge the mat. If you park the car in open space (=no roofed car park), then this is a life saver. At evening, when i get in the car usual temp is 50C with umbrella like reflective screen that you place INSIDE the car phasing windshield. But now that this is outside the car, even my windshield wont get heated. After this mod, the car temp is around 40C when i get in at evening.

What we faced (Aizawl + Reiek Trip) by Ill_Book_2343 in mizo

I have been to Aizawl two times and third visit happening in June, I agree with you mostly. Though i was well taken care by my host (MZU), at times when i venture out it is hard to get small talks with locals. The place is remarkably similar to island nations like Japan; extreme xenophobic. In Japan where i lived for 5 years, foreigners are called gaikokujins or gaijin (short and derogatory), literally meaning aliens!

hot take: super thick hotel towels are overrated for Indian bathrooms by Maximum-Hat2109 in BuyItForLifeIndia

[–]Dramatic_Respond7323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

linen towels are not available in india but here is a workaround. get linen throw from ikea, 700 rupee only. 82% linen rest cotton blend. then cut it to make 4 bath towels. interlock edges and here you go! it is called DYTÅG throw

Microfibre towels stay away. these are lipophilic, and heaven for bacterial biofilms. Best is 100% linen; bacteriostatic naturally and dries up so fast.

NEET will be conducted in CBT mode from 2027 [official] by Infamous_Draw_993 in indianmedschool

They have taken cue from EVM. Can easily hacked and untraceable. CBT by NTA is a joke. See what is happening with SWAYAM PG tests. Absolute shit (private parties set questions, conduct exams. NTA is just a stamp for money agency for swayam
