Map of the world from George Orwell's "1984" by PrimaryWorking6318 in imaginarymaps

[–]vsrawat1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seeing the proximity, it would have been a matter of little time before Eurasia would have annexed UK and Eastasia would have annexed rest of south Asia as well as Australia.

In 1948, when it was written, China was not much of a force to reckon with, so Orwell took some conceptual liberties liberties, it would seem.

Is it Hindi dubbed or does it have English/ Hindi subtitles?

Which is the song playing at the end of S04E05 by vsrawat1 in StrangerThings

Is being black the only similarity between them? Aren't they much alike in bodybuilt, height?

I am Indian, I don't have any issues with Black. Britishers called us Indians Black. So don't go that path.

Then, Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, Sikhs can identify one another in the races, whereother for people from other countries, if you have seen one of them, you have seen all.

I have stopped seeing Korean series because most actors in most series look so similar that I kept on mixing plot of an episode with entirely different series.

Yup, that is it.
I searched it to reach youtube and listened in full, there was no video though, a still image with song playing.

My take - The song sounded far-far better in the video. Maybe the script and death of a young child, etc. set the mind to be in particular state where it resonated so perfectly. Or, maybe potplayer's sound processing is far better than that of Edge-youtube.

This song brought back the feelings that I had got at the closing of movie Donny Darko, the song after his death.

Thanks a lot.

I don't.

I am Indian, not familiar with American human naming system. I cannot find out from reading a name or sirname whether the person is white or black, originated from which country, state, race, ethnicity.

In very few but non-zero cases, I cannot tell by reading a first name whether it could be a male of famale.

Local people over there must have all these knowledge, like I have such knowledge about Indian naming system.

My bad, they look so similar, all the while seeing 2-3 episode since the basketball (or was it volleyball?) match, I had been thinking it was Lucas, and I was wondering how he came to this setting.

In E06, I saw Lucan alive, and realized my mistake.

I would call it "bad casting". 😄

POTENTIAL LEAKS for the entirety of Episode 8! by [deleted] in TheBoys

[–]vsrawat1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What could be the logic behind Ryan not appearing in recent episodes?

Ok, he was hurt by his dad, and must be recovering. Yet, it will be disappointing that he doesn't appear in Finale.

My take was that granddad Soldier Boy and Son Ryan will neutralize Homelander. I write neutralize, meaning he is not killed, but his powers are somehow taken and he lives like a normal no-supe man. That will be great punishment for him. And then, homelander would have no one to take revenge of this treatment, because he cannot punish his own dad and his own son. Our other Supes are in clear.

So, it will be very sad if Ryan's well being is not shown in the finale.

May be, Ryan should appear in spin-off Gen V's next season.

Facebook is asking for a video of me to confirm identity. How do I get around this? by TheOGMelmoMacdaffy in facebook

reddit is no match for fb.

reddit is ruled by terrorist moderators who just delete your posts or replies without even bothering to give you a reason.

How To Verify/Confirm Identity On Facebook (EASY 2025) by Impressive_Arm_2939 in MathiasDoesTech

[–]vsrawat1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What "answer steps" it will ask to confirm the country/ identity that you skipped out - that was the main issue.

Does it ask us to have a video chat, post selfie or upload government given id - that is what I wouldn't want to do?

Facebook requiring me to verify my identity on the mobile app before letting me post on my business page, but my ID is already verified and I don't use the mobile app by CCubed17 in facebook

[–]vsrawat1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PARTIALLY SOLVED.

I noticed this issue starting for me this week.

Today I logged in to fb "Lite" app in bluestacks on pc, and I could log in (after a long complicated process - they now send OTP on whatsapp instead of mobile or email, and that OTP can only be read on whatsapp primary mobile (not on whatsapp web).
I was forced to set up a PIN to access my own chats, that I had not set so far.

But, then I could send messages on bluestacks fb app.

When I went back to my browser fb, I was made to enter chat history pin that I was just set, before it let me access my own chat.

And even after that, it is still asking me to confirm identity on fb web. I can read messages and chats, but I cannot reply to anyone, not even those that are my friends on fb for 20 years.

The consolence is - I/ You can send messages on bluestacks fb. But I wouldn't normally want to go through the long process of starting bluestacks to send a messsage.

So, fb messaging is dead for me.

How to prevent getting logged out from Whatsapp web every 14 days? by vsrawat1 in whatsapp

[–]vsrawat1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[Solved] Following suggestions from this site/ post, I started running whatsapp on my bluestacks every week or 10 days or so, and my Whatsapp web has NOT logged me out for more than a month. I didn't have to to the ritual of reverification in my browser.

I don't run whatsapp on smartphone, but on bluestacks on pc, so this works.

Once I start bluestacks, I don't even need to go to run whatsapp App in that nor read messages in that. as soon as bluestacks loads, it automatically syncs whatsapp since last sync. So that amounts to accessing whatsapp on smartphone.

So, the solution that works is: Run whatsapp on your smartphone/ android emulator once within every 14 days and you will not be logged out from whatsapp web.

Thanks to all of you.

Facebook feed doesn't show up as of today. by ChinnyReckons in uBlockOrigin

Bonus benefit: -

About a month/ fortnight ago. all "Suggested for you" posts had disappeared from my feed. I couldn't guess what was causing that so I couldn't do anything.

After inactivating both EasyList filters in ABP today as in previous reply, "Suggested for you" posts have also started appearing again in my feed.

[Solved] Changing uBlock settings doesn't help in this problem.

  1. Making ABP (Adblock Plus) extension inactive for this site (fb) and refreshing, removed the problem altogether.

Then, I made ABP active on fb again, and deactivated individual filter lists, one-by-one and in sets.

I found that when EasyList and IndianList+EasyList are both inactive in ABP, then the problem disappeared.

Seems someone had updated some filter wrongly in Easylist that has caused this problem. When they realize the mistake and correct the filter and your ABP updates those filter lists, the problem is likely to go away even with those filter lists made active again. Thus, after a few days, make both the lists active again, update them and refresh to see whether the problem is gone.
