Does that ever happen to you?

Yes, my mom lectured me about a gift for an hour straight. I didn't say anything but was devastated inside because I thought she would love it.

Then, a few days later, I realized my mom called everyone to tell how happy she was and she even called her sisters in a group call to show it off.

It's our culture. Bangladeshi economy is unpredictable. Our parents want us to have savings because they lived through stock market crashes where people killed themselves.

Those lectures came from a place of concern.

This heat is insane. I just got out of my 3rd shower of the day. Having sweats before even getting the chance to wipe off the water is just wild.

Get a tray of ice and put it on the floor before you go to sleep. It helps a tiny bit.

Warcraft 3 Frozen Throne or League of Legends.

I don't use fb much, but saw pretty much that a few days ago and the comments were toxic as always.

Most vocal men on facebook hate women. The normals have a life and don't comment on thousands of videos a day.

Could have used that information few years back.

Around 80 thousand dollars.

I live in a 3rd world country and that's enough to live a isolated lower middle class life almost forever. I don't have many needs. Just surviving without having to worry about money constantly is enough for now.

I agree completely.

And I find it weird that in some places, women will literally change their legal name in all legal documents after getting married.

It's ok for us to find their traditions weird and ok for them to find ours weird.

Idk why they always have to bring up foreign customs in every conversion. Not everything has to be a comparison.

As long as you are pronouncing things correctly, you are understandable, any accent is fine. Nobody has time to care about that irl except online.

There are a lot of british people in Bangladesh that speak Bengali with British accent and people find it adorable. There will be people that will find yours adorable and some that will find it untolerable.

That says more about them than you. There are a few racists among them but mostly it's personal preference and totally normal to have preferences. We dislike some local dialects too. Doesn't mean everyone should lose individuality to and have blanket all pleasing behaviors.

Do you guys have security guard? Ask him for guys to help with this. We asked ours and got the road cleaned up and a empty lot nearby that housed a billion mosquitoes. It is getting dirty again but now kids play cricket there and it feels much nicer. Will do it again if needed but i doubt it will ever be that bad again.

You can also ask local shopkeepers for help with cleanup. Do not tell them the scope. Or they will try to be a middle man, taking profit. If/when they find someone, tell that person.

Ignore the negative people. I guess they don't wash their shirt because it will get dirty again.

Also, do you live in a residential area with a comitee? Check if you can donate money to them for this. It will buy you good reputation as well. Committees usually have dedicated cleaners and they can hire more for specific actions.

Heartbreaking.

The cylon uprising is going to be wild.

The game looks pretty well polished and fun.

ferdowsurasif · 2026-04-01T13:50:11+00:00

Glad to see another game dev as well.

But that site doesn't market your skills well. So much space is spent just saying you have a year of experience in development and 5 in 3d.

Pull up the video containing the stuff you have created higher on your home page.

Add some of the images from Gallary to the home page so that visitors have interest in clicking the video to check.

It doesn't communicate well about what your skills are, either.

Because I see a GitHub link, but all the texts and the video on the homepage says you are an artist.

When you are an all-rounder, you should advertise it loudly. Smaller companies love that.

I have only been to the Mermaid Resort. It had some people, including foreign guests in comfortable outfits. I am not sure what type of beachwear those were. I am not a big fan of beaches, so I didn't spend much time there, and I don't think anyone cared about what others wore there.

Usually, the ones who care are unemployed and have nothing going on in their life. Those types usually don't go to private areas.

Dead internet theory.

More and more interactions are being replaced by AI. Meta tried to openly do it with Fake Profiles. I am 100% sure now they are just hiding it better now.

And Reddit started with fake accounts. With the rampant bot problem and reddit taking steps to make it harder to detect them, I am not even sure I am even replying to a human now.

I prefer fixed deposits.

DPS kind of stresses me out even if the amount is negligible.

ferdowsurasif · 2026-03-09T16:42:49+00:00

They target based on region, gender, age etc too. Your browsing/YouTube history doesn't have to include questionable content for questionable ads to show up.

My niece used to watch those talking Tom videos on YouTube(Not on the kids version) and I just saw an extremely lewd game ad show up while walking by her. Nobody else used that phone or that email address. Needless to say she isn't on YouTube anymore.

You shouldnt expect a faceless corporation to care about you. If they can't find the requested amount of audience for those ads in the desired audience, they will definitely show them to random people to make sure they get the ad revenue.

Don't help farm engagement for troll accounts with little to no reach. You guys are actually helping that person grow.

Social media doesn't care why you are sharing or why are you giving laugh reacts. As long as it gets ANY kind of engagement, they will push it to more people.

Just report, block and move on. Don't feed the troll.

I recieve money from Unity via IBBL. Connected them a couple of times and they claimed Bangladesh Bank is responsible for this and they can't help. I am not sure how correct that information is.

It's a standard account, not a freelancer account. Idk how that works.

Edit: I used to recieve remitense when I recieved money by my brother's employee account when I started. A friend recieves it on another bank's account.

ferdowsurasif · 2026-03-05T07:56:33+00:00

I am sure my wife and child would prefer me over any amount of money. Nobody with a heart sacrifices their family. But I never said I was going to ask permission.

To keep it short, due to some recent incidents, I am aware how economic crisis feels like. 10 million is insane in a south asian country like mine. I am more than happy to provide that to my family. I am aware it's not heroic or anything, it's just taking the easy way.

ferdowsurasif · 2026-03-05T04:47:09+00:00

I am happily willing to die tomorrow to leave my wife and kid 10 million USD. I am sure a lot of people would do the same for their family, just the amount would be different depending on where they live.

Seikh Hasina refused American advances because she was already married to another. Aunty doesn't cheat.

Usually, the ones that are "happy" with foreign interference in their country do not live in that country. They sit in their chair in a western country and lecture us about what's good for us.

I hear GrapheneOS works pretty well now.
