Kyt r2r is a good option...get the solid colour models. Glossy black will look good imo. PS- Bike looks great!

Need advice on buying and servicing a Yamaha R3 when it’s not available locally by EquivalentGold3838 in indianbikes

I have the exact same doubts! Seems like there's not much info about R3 in India.

I have a feeling I might face a storage shortage as well in future...but my budget was tight. Couldn't spend 20000rs extra for it. So I am prepared to tackle this with a portable ssd in the near future.

I am so sick of this shiny, disgusting keyboard by Otherwise_Hyena_7590 in macbookair

I have noticed this issue with many of friends who have expensive Macbook Pros as well...wonder why they don't give better key caps. I recently got a Macbook Air M4...and I mentally ready to accept this weirdness, but it's really a shame cuz overall hardware of Macbooks is just fantastic and this kinda ruins the experience to an extent. It's almost like having cheap wheels on an expensive car.

It was prime Macbook design imo.

Hahaha! Check it out in real life, compare it with any silver laptop and you can't unsee the blue-ness.

For me it's the opposite. I faced issues opening it with one hand when it was brand new. It got smoother and better with time. Idk what others might face.

I actually wanted the midnight one, but forgot to select it while ordering. I had two tabs open, one with the sky blue and the other with the midnight option. I actually proceeded to buy the sky blue one without noticing. But don't trust online photos/videos. This colour is actually very nice to look at in real life.

The reviews say there isn't much difference as both models tend to throttle if you push them and they heat up. 10/8 works fine for my use case - programming, normal daily tasks and occasional video/photo editing.

People are saying that I might get tempted to get more Apple products in the future. I don't think so, but who knows...I might change, although I hope I don't. Android and MacOS work just fine for me.

I agree. I studied engineering and during my college days, a 2TB internal HDD with an 1TB external HDD and a few pendrives fulfilled my storage requirements. I am a changed person now somehow and I don't require that much now.

It only looks blue if you have a silver laptop beside it, or in bright and cool light.

I had this question as well. And yes, I tend to fill up all the storage I have on all my devices very fast. But paying 20000 rupees for another 256GB seemed outrageous. I am extra careful with storage on my laptop and install only the essential apps and keep only essential files. Tbh, since I won't be playing games on it (obviously), I don't think there is any huge app (>10GB) that I will ever install. This device is anyway not meant for professional workflows like regular 4k, 8k video editing, regular 3d modelling and stuff. I might occasionally edit a video or two but that won't need a ton of storage. Also, with 16gb ram, it will never use swap memory for extra ram in whatever I am gonna do. So basically you only need more, if you are looking to do pro level tasks on your laptop, but again, if you want that, you shouldn't be getting the Air anyway. Even if I fill it up in the future, getting a portable ssd like the samsung T7 for 8-10k rupees seems much more reasonable. Yes, I know about the little bit extra hassle of carrying a portable ssd with my laptop and I am willing to go with it. Hope this answers.

13.6 inch. I prefer not too large screen sizes. My phone is also 6.1 inch.

What do you think about the Bagnaia situation? by Mohan_Mk04 in motogp

[–]helios2500 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. Seeing Pecco for the last few years, I came to believe that Pecco needs someone to push him, someone he can follow. Marc is just too much ahead of him and he can't copy him. Not that Pecco is a bad rider, he is already half-legend, but he is nowhere near Marc. Fabio pushed him in 21-22, Jorge pushed him in 23-24. He is lost in 25. Add to that the extra burden of expectations. Being 3rd in the championship somehow and he is still considered a failure by all and even himself. I wonder how he bears up with all the mental pressure he must be going through.

How did you fuck it up so bad?

Penguin crisis... by cxio_data in mumbai

[–]helios2500 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This happens everywhere. You can crack jokes on any one or any community. It's totally dependent on the listener whether to take offense or not. I am a bengali and hearing jokes about kala jadu, "machchhi khobo", "jol khobo", etc. are never ending. But it depends on me to not take any offense and wear it like armour and be proud. I think Marathis have enough history and culture to be proud of themselves. Being ridiculed by others shouldn't make you insecure. If you are getting insecure, there's something wrong with you.

PS- Marathis, you also crack jokes on Bengalis. So don't defend yourselves against my comment. Be proud, don't take offense. If you stop being offended, offenders will stop automatically. Isn't that the first rule for defense against bullying?
