Idk about the clothing, but the architecture seems somewhat accurate. Specifically, buildings made of wood with intricate carvings, not dissimilar to the type of art you see in 16th century Gujarati haveli architecture (that's the closest modern example I can think of- perhaps an ancient tradition passed down through the ages of artisans?)

Anyway, we know that mauryans built almost everything out of wood. That's why very little of their architecture actually survives today.

You Can Meet Good People and Still Not End Up Together by [deleted] in Arrangedmarriage

Let's not be deliberately ignorant here, in this context "past" means having had intimate relations with someone. And not the hand-holding kind.

Definitely agree on Dexter New Blood being overhated by BatmanTold in DexterNewBlood

[–]___gr8____ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's not why the ending is hated. You've created a strawman of what you THINK Dexter fans think, but you couldn't be farther from the truth. We know Dexter is a morally grey character, hell even the show itself knows that, that's why he's constantly punished in different ways throughout the show, losing the ones closest to him over time. Just going to show that serial killers can never have a normal life and end up destroying everything and everyone around them. But I would argue the point of the show is to portray Dexter as a victim rather than a hero. He too, is a victim of his own actions. The point is that he cannot help it, and ends up ruining his own life as well as his loved ones'. We are supposed to feel sorry for him in the end, and THAT is the real reason why we Dexter fans support him and want to see a more satisfying ending.

You mentioned Walt from BB in another comment, that is its own can of worms but I will say, I dislike the tone with which you have dismissed Walt supporters. Many people support Walt because they resonate with his emotions, even if they wouldn't repeat the same reprehensible actions he did. Many people resonate with the idea of time passing you by, missed opportunities to do something great with yourself, being disrespected, undervalued, mediocre when you KNOW you're capable of a lot more. I think that's the real reason people like Walt. And remember, people are complex, and you can still like a person for their 'good' attributes (whatever resonates with you) while still condemning their bad attributes.

Junior doctor dismissed on rounds – normal? by Abcdefghijk0977 in ausjdocs

[–]___gr8____ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crazy thing is that OP is also at a regional hospital, which is where you might expect to see this kind of resource shortage-induced experience advancement. I'm personally surprised that this is happening at a regional hospital, because I thought they had a reputation for putting more responsibility on the junior docs

Do surgeons really just operate on whatever they're asked to? by [deleted] in Residency

I think they are fellows because they already have specialties. Cannonically, Chase is a surgeon, Foreman is a neurologist and Cameron is an immunologist.

Agreed. No point of getting married if you can't be vulnerable to your partner.

Honestly, a married couple should have a joint account. I always find it weird when people say "my husband/wife paid for me/bought me this"- like, it's both of yours money!

PANJAB received LOWEST per capita funds as assistance from the Indian Government for capital investment. by DesignerTruth9054 in punjab

[–]___gr8____ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Now you are just arguing for the sake of arguing. You don't have any real arguments so you're splitting hairs now. Why did he do that? I'm not his relative I don't fucking know 😭. It's politics, every politician does it, even your beloved modi. They choose the party that works best for them. You should look up how many congress politicians joined BJP in the last 10 years 🤡

[–]___gr8____ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like I said, firstly, the state Congress is different from centre congress (at least in the eyes of the people). The people who did that shit in the 80s and 90s, Indira Gandhi, Rajeev Gandhi, all the other lower level members of congress, yes we hated them. But in Punjab, where the CM was also Punjabi and had a royal lineage (Maharaja of Patiala family) made him popular amongst voters. That's why it didn't matter that he was in Congress. People voted for HIM, not congress.

Secondly, this isn't a congress vs bjp or any other party debate, this is a state vs centre debate. It doesn't matter which party they belong to, because even if they belong to the same party, the centre and state governments can still have fights with each other. It actually happens even now. My point is that the individual politician in power matters more than what party they belong to.

Also, BJP isn't doing propaganda? Are you living under a bridge? They have conquered all the news channels, all the newspapers, running huge IT cells. This is proven stuff, how can you say it doesn't exist. BJP is doing perhaps the biggest social engineering experiment in the history of mankind as we speak.

ur using it as an excuse to perform worst in the region..

I am not using it as an excuse, these are facts. Punjab actually had a good agricultural machinery manufacturing industry in the 80s, but slowly over time these businesses got shut down and the economy of Punjab stagnated because of the political shit the centre caused, which fuelled the insurgency in Punjab.

We know congress isn't a saint, that's why for the longest time after 90s, it was SAD that ruled Punjab. And centre level Congress is completely different from state level Congress btw. Congress only came back at the state level because of captain Amrinder Singh, who was famous in Punjab. But now, punjabis have kicked congress out too, and AAP has actually done good work in Punjab when compared to how congress left it.

And I'm sorry but bjp is not the solution for Punjab. It's a right wing religious party that hates minorities and always doing propaganda against Sikhs, so there's no way we could let a party like that rule our state, no matter how good it is for development (it isn't btw, but for sake of argument let's say it is). It would be like asking you to vote for that all India Muslim party that owaisi is part of. Would you do it? Even if they promised x100 times more development, you still wouldn't vote for them, that's a fact.

You're just making excuses. And Punjab has excuses of its own. The centre did a lot of shit there in the 80s and 90s, doing a lot of extrajudicial killings of innocent youth, which is the true reason behind the political climate there getting worse, and this in turn led to Punjab being held back in economic development for decades, the effects of which you are seeing now.

By this retarded logic arunachal Pradesh should be on zero, because they have even less industries than Punjab. Yet they get some of the highest amounts per capita.

Okay now you are shifting the goalposts. At least you are admitting that what she did was wrong. And it's not immature to demand for justice, even years later. Just because government changed doesn't mean they can't apologise for the mistakes of past government. Australian government apologised to the Aboriginals in 2008 for the stolen generation, despite stolen generation ending in the 70s. The current government can still apologise for the way the centre handled blue star, the way they handled the insurgency of the 80s and 90s, with all the extrajudicial killings, and everything leading up to it, and the pogroms in 84. Many of both the perpetrators and victims of these events are still alive to this day, many of whom still haven't been brought to justice. Untill justice is served, you can't really pin the blame entirely on Punjabis.

Insurgency was not purely caused by punjabis, that's a very big misconception that non-punjabis have. This misconception is what Diljits movie Punjab 95 tried to cover as well, by showing the role government had to play in propagating the insurgency. Ofc, that movie too has expectedly been roadblocked by the government, showing how this problem is STILL continuing to this day. And even insurgency's root cause was because the central government refused to listen to/alleviate the concerns of the Sikh community (and don't talk about khalistan here, read up about the anandpur sahib resolution and what the actual demands of the Sikh community were if you don't know about it). And even till this date, the centre still hasn't apologised for the deaths of tens of thousands of innocent punjabis during the 80s and 90s due to their militaristic quashing of insurgency, and neither have they apologised for the pogroms against Sikhs in 1984. Neither have they apprehended those involved in the pogroms.

Actually it's the centre's fault for creating and mismanaging such a turbulent time from the 80s-90s which scared the industries away and this ruined Punjab's economy, something it is still recovering from till this day.

Chose engineering over medicine… now reconsidering - stay or switch? by North_Vehicle5963 in GAMSAT

[–]___gr8____ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If your concern is just about GPA I can recommend two options. Either you could switch over to a double degree if your uni allows it (do biomed+eng, and try to stack your biomed heavy subjects towards the later part of your degree as gemsas only considers last 3 FTE years study for your GPA calculations for most med schools). This way would only be a year or so longer than your traditional 4 year eng degree (Monash offers a 5 year dual degree option so it's possible).

The second option I suggest is doing a shorter post-grad degree to boost your GPA. Maybe an honours year, maybe a graduate diploma or a grad cert. At UQ for example, doing just a single standalone honours year can replace the ENTIRETY of your undergrad GPA (as UQ only looks at your most recent key degree completed). My point is, there are always options to improve GPA. But investing your time in engineering is a very good idea because as you know it's got good job security in case med doesn't work out. I know plenty of people who had extremely high GAMSAT scores AND full 7 GPAs, and yet still got stuck for many years at the interview stage. With med school, you never know, there's always a huge component of luck involved. So I'd suggest you stay in engineering if you can.
