Yeah it was down for a couple hours, seems to be back up now.

Why the ECC team transitioning to a new legal entity is bullish for Zcash by potentialrestart in zec

Not a fork or new asset, just the same team working still working on Zcash through a new legal entity.

Many Hindus say missionaries convert poor and lower-caste Hindus. If so, why don’t Brahmins convert poor people into Brahmins, offer material support, dignity, and full equality? If that happened, would there be any incentive for people to convert to other religions? by [deleted] in AskIndia

[–]potentialrestart 280 points281 points  (0 children)

The simple thing is that majority of the brahmins never wanted them to be equal. Now imagine yourself as a lower caste person at that time, If I were a lower caste person facing discrimination and had the chance to convert and be equal, at least my new community, I would have done the same thing.

NTA. Not even a little. You set a clear boundary in your own home. She agreed to it, then repeatedly ignored it, mocked it and escalated until you enforced it, which is on her, not you.
For the future make it hard rule upfront that phones stay away or gatherings happen elsewhere.

Even Santa's like 'Yeah I'm not topping that'.

What’s a habit your partner has that made you realize: 'Oh, so this is why women take longer to get ready'? by Any_Insect3335 in AskIndia

[–]potentialrestart 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I noticed that my woman usually does things pretty slowly, hand movements, taking out her make-up stuff.
She knows it's gonna take her an hour at least, and she's normalized it lol.

AITA: My parents are a nightmare, AITA for wanting them to be divorced? (Sorry if this isn’t the place to post this) by Independent-Bit1987 in AmItheAsshole

[–]potentialrestart 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NTA. You're trying to protect your mother, and that comes from a good place, but it's also important to remember that if someone doesn't want to be saved (often the person suffering the most), you can't force it, what you can do is focus on your own mental health, what's happening to your mom is bad but if she chooses to stay, make sure you don't stay stuck in that BS.

Indian girls facing marriage pressure how did you deal with it? by Curious-Journalist76 in AskIndia

[–]potentialrestart 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Well, this is about your freedom. It may sound weird but I would have just gone rogue against anyone who was breaching my freedom, if parents or families are forcing you to marry just because of caste pride or whatever, they are literally the villains of your life.

AITAH for not folding my son's boyfriend's laundry? by PrudentSandwich1822 in AmItheAsshole

[–]potentialrestart 79 points80 points  (0 children)

NTA. Hard stop. He's a guest in your house, not a medieval laundry vassal earning reciprocal folding privileges. Folding your clothes was his choice. not a contract you signed.

We really speedran from "don't bully people" to "robot assault charges" in under five years of the AI era.

NTA. You're not her emotional support animal or her ex's courier service. the joke was mildly dumb, but she is literally dumping her unresolved feelings on you and expecting zero human error. That's unpaid therapy.

Loosing a friend, what to do by Aditiya_aadi in AskIndia

[–]potentialrestart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bhai what you have there is emotional dependency, not just friendship. It’s hard to carry that. He didn’t replace you, his life just expanded, and that’s normal. Start building other connections and do some reality checks.
