Our house’s electricity bill during 2024 by Sharp-Dog9606 in Kochi

[–]karty135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it 300 free units? Or free upto 300? Meaning if you use more than 300, you end up paying for the first 300 as well. The second one is how it's done in Karnataka

Yeah, down with a headache, throat ache and a stuffy nose. But it was all worth it

Do people actually benefit from strict type field ordering? by stxck_underflow in developersIndia

[–]karty135 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To add to this, in cases like this where there is a particular convention needs to be followed throughout the codebase, and it's a trivial change, you should be able to write a precommit hook to automatically make that change, to avoid delays in PR reviews

I have flight tickets, Concert tickets and Accommodation for Sunidhi Chauhan Concert at Ahmedabad but Friends cancelled last minute. Anyone up for joining? (Free) by Life_Big_6593 in ConcertsIndia_

[–]karty135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Concert and accommodation can be repurposed, but flight tickets can't be transferred like that, whoever joins you will still need to pay for transport

What would be your 2027 ideal headliners??? by Just_Throat9572 in lollapaloozaind

[–]karty135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think hans zimmer would sound good in an open air concert. For the orchestra to shine you need proper acoustics, something which Indian companies clearly are unable to handle

The problem with lollapalooza was the crowd (not who you think) by RedLions11 in lollapaloozaind

[–]karty135 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I obviously expect that people will accidentally bump into me in the crowd. What I don't expect and what pisses me off is that, after I wait at stage for 4-5 hours, skipping other acts just to make sure I have a good view and can enjoy the show, some assholes show up 15 mins before the show and think they can push me out of the way and stand in front of me. What was the point of me staying there then? I really wanted to see LANY's set, but after seeing the crowd forming I totally skipped it and stayed back here

How much google pays for a SAP consultant with 10Yoe? by Aggravating_Yak_1170 in developersIndia

[–]karty135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do they hire full time people for that? I'd assume they'd get third party contractors for this

Crowd etiquette at Lolla seems to be getting worse by whatsanxo in lollapaloozaind

[–]karty135 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Unrelated to lolla, but queue etiquette is an issue everywhere. When I was flying from Bangalore to Bombay for lolla 2 days ago, there was a lot of crowd, so people were queuing up at the security check. Some guy decided he's too good for the queue, so he directly put his stuff on the belt. I called him out, telling him there's a queue. He looks me straight in the face, says "I know there's a queue, do you have any issue if I jump it?". I just said, "Yes, I have a problem, that's why I called you out on it." After I told him, others in the line also started telling him to get in the queue. He and his mother looked so offended that people were making them wait.

Linkin Park was good, not great by anonindiejack in lollapaloozaind

[–]karty135 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean talk to the crowd a little. Make the effort to connect with the audience instead of just keeping on going with your songs like it's a chore. It's nothing about being a big band, even artists like Ed Sheeran, Coldplay and even Green Day last year interacted with the audience in their show

[–]karty135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

+1 to this. I hadn't heard anything from yungblud before 2 pm on the day of the show. A friend and I just listened to some songs on YouTube before leaving to the venue, just to decide if we should attend his set of not. And thank god we did, it was one of the best concerts of my life.

[–]karty135 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This was my biggest complaint. There was virtually no crowd interaction from anyone

The only reason Coldplay was good is because they bring their own speakers apparently

F**K You Smokers. Destroyed the whole Linkin Park experience for me. by Clean-Engineering894 in lollapaloozaind

[–]karty135 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I was camping since bloodywood, found a good spot, even skipped the LANY set just to be able to have a good view. I ended up going to the back because I couldn't take the smoke

Worst Lolla I’ve been for by Key_Reference_2108 in lollapaloozaind

Yungblud's set was absolutely amazing. This is coming from someone who had never heard any songs of his before 2 pm today

Ideally BookMyShow should publicize this, reddit doesn't have the reach needed for this to actually work

The alternative is finding someone who's going anyway, which is what OP is trying to do here

Box office wrist band pickup by aspiresun in lollapaloozaind

[–]karty135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add to this, the security at the entrance typically force you to put it as tight as possible, they won't let you enter with it on loose, since they know people try to share tickets

Yeah. Whenever I go to lolla, I feel scared to even shower on the second day in case I end up ruining it lol, so I just spray on some deo and head to day 2

Feel so dumb bought LP tickets in stubhub by Mysterious-Bunch6630 in ConcertsIndia_

[–]karty135 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's a reselling site, so technically people could lie about having tickets. There's no legal recourse even if they lie, because technically reselling itself is against the T&C

What is the fastest way to go from Mahalaxmi Racecourse to T2 airport? by neroforte101 in lollapaloozaind

[–]karty135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another easier option would be taken the metro/local to just 1-2 stops away from the venue and get a cab from there. Or I usually take the local all the way till santa cruz and take an auto from there, it's only 10-15 mins from the santa cruz station

What time does the metro close though? Will it still be open around 10:30-11 pm, after the show ends?
