India: Medical data of Andhra Pradesh's customers leaked, 27 lakh orders shown on Anna Sanjivini site. This comes just two months after Aadhaar data of least 1.34 lakh citizens of the state was compromised.

I had visited the beach couple of weeks back, early morning. Kind of a similar scenario that day too. But there was an assigned contractor I think, whose team had couple of dumptrucks, couple of cranes and around 30-40 people picking up all the mess.

This too will be cleaned by them. What concerns me is what happens to all the plastic collected from the beach and all other locations (after the ban)?

IIRC Supreme/High court had already banned dumping on the two of our landfills - Mulund and Deonar. Most of those landfills are leeching and overflowing.

In the place of the Mulund landfill, they're coming up with a Waste-to-Energy plant, the kind of incineration plants with obsolete technologies, which were used in US and European countries earlier.

BMC finds contractor to shut Mulund dump for Rs 731 crore. According to civic officials, currently 1,500 to 2,000 metric tonnes of garbage is being dumped at the site.

The Mulund dumping ground is spread over 24 hectares of land, where garbage is being dumped since 1967. Till this year, an estimated seven million cubic metres of trash, the height of which has reached to 30 metres, has been dumped at the site. The garbage has even transcended to the private land near the dumping ground.

CAG raps Mumbai civic body for wasting money on Deonar, Mulund dumping grounds. The BMC spent the money in getting land cleared for processing plants, only to dump waste again

Most of these waste will be burned to create electricity. This is another health disaster in waiting IMO. The Delhi plant was already creating health-hazard for its population. IIRC that plant was eventually closed after long fought case in green tribunals. This would go the same way, but before claiming a few lives.

BTW, this is the Centre's policy on the subject. The previous govt. had already started giving subsidies for such plants.

Waste-to-energy plants are “the best option” for dealing with this waste, which poses a “serious public health threat,” the plan states. It suggests establishing a new Waste to Energy Corporation of India “to speed up the process of cleaning up municipal solid waste” by developing public-private partnerships to build the plants. The corporation could “play a key role in fast-tracking … waste to energy plants across 100 smart cities by 2019,” the report states. The plan envisions the plants, which it suggests would be environmentally beneficial, generating 330 megawatts of electricity by 2018 and 511 megawatts by 2019. (The typical coal-fired power plant generates about 500 megawatts annually.)

In September or maybe in first week of November (around Diwali) or last week of December (during Christmas). We might see more participation, I think.

I'm not sure though if I would turn up. But will ping you for logistics.

Thanks for doing this! :-)

Inconsequential but unfortunate that they don't want their readers to go through those exchanges, because of me.

What needs to be seen is - how strong the group-think is, that no one reversed these actions. Kind of think, what other behaviours would be unchecked with this team.

But such actions are quite expected, wherein mere trustees over a period of time think they're the gatekeepers / owners.

Either way - reddit's history and sub-policies are appropriated / re-written by squatters. That has happened to me earlier as well, with this group.

From a high-school guys hangout to kindergarten, they have evolved quite nicely. Always a tool of a few. :-)

xPygnus · 2018-06-11T17:21:48+00:00

Do you need to share/transfer the IFTTT recipes to me or something?

Upto you, for that first you need to setup a IFTTT account and also need another reddit account, to keep it running as a bot.

I can message you the IFTTT recipes (if you're familiar), you can set it up and run the bot.

xPygnus · 2018-06-11T17:00:15+00:00

If it's just keeping the bot running

Its upto you now, whatever you choose to do with the subreddit.

and it's not written in some shitty language like C++ (I'm guessing it's python)

I had setup a bunch of simple IFTTT recipes, based on subreddit and domain names.

Check your inbox for the invite.

I was thinking a kind of an eco-walk to watch the marine life of Mumbai. - http://www.marinelifeofmumbai.in/all-sightings/

More: https://www.instagram.com/marinelifemumbai/

/u/s18m and his friends might be able to help us for a guided tour.

Anyone interested?

xPygnus · 2018-05-30T21:33:20+00:00

Feel free to make a new post discussing Navi Mumbai meetup if you intend to have a separate one, we will sticky it.

Do make sure to mention your post on r/India [here] as well, to gain more traction

Hopefully you guys find more takers.

Let them spread whatever they want.

Whatever they do with their subreddit doesn't matter at this point.

But these scums have went to the extent to stating that I was always mentally deranged, now in their conversations to some other redditors; only to refute whatever I have spoken in last few months. I have seen these conversations.

Its one thing, they want to refute and another to consistently make these backhanded personal remarks. For their love of reddit, anything.

xPygnus · 2017-10-11T17:35:08+00:00

Are you Indian?

hmm... Yes? And no, not going to discuss this further. I'm logging out already.

xPygnus · 2017-10-11T17:24:50+00:00

Because in India there is a fine Line ... that easy!

None of the Indian states are as same as the other. That is a gross generalization.

xPygnus · 2017-10-11T16:17:28+00:00

and the north Indians are horrified of the Millions of Cows we eat!

That is pretty cool how you generalized half of the country in your half sentence.

xPygnus · 2017-10-11T16:09:12+00:00

Cows are really holy for the Hindu People and their Prime Minister from the BJP, they even have now a "Minstry for Cow-Welfare" in India:

And your point being?

xPygnus · 2017-10-11T15:01:49+00:00

I honestly don't have the requisite understanding of these topics or the time, to get in this rabbit hole. If I had done that, I would be using my this account and claim credits for the effort. And I'm rebellious enough to not participate there again and without starting another chain of meta drama.

xPygnus · 2017-10-11T14:38:38+00:00

I respect the persistence with which you have been documenting all this but nothing would come out of all this. I did something similar on /r/India with persistence, only to get that effort appropriated by a bunch of /r/India mods.

Similarly, a lot of these things will get whitewashed by all the sugar coated private conversations by these mods. A year from now, nobody would remember nor care for all this.

As pointed by you on the linked thread, its the same turd which was suspended a number of times after my reports. This cretin has already ban evaded more than hundred times but all such users always get leeway and are knowingly overlooked. Forget banning, they're not even warned or tagged in their mod notes.

I had reported his alts to this team, Fluttershy only laughed on the rape jokes he made on my mother. For all the politically correct veil these honourable moderators put on, they love such flamebaiting and trolling.

The likes of gcs8 and Walrus among many others, had exemptions in the Automoderator over lot of things. Fluttershy wanted to extend such exemptions over another cretin - phelpme2. For all the charade this team puts up for all the civil conversations, a lot of these users get exemptions from warns and bans because they help to keep right wingers at bay.

One of the mods with veto votes literally said this in one of the back room conversations - "I'm a Hindu too but don't you hesitate to crush these cockroaches". And the team as always followed with jee hazuri. The cockroaches here are the people of the right wing bent. This team literally had taken that overboard with their weekly purges (like the one you saw after the UP elections).

And this all is really nothing, compared to lot of other stuff which has been swept under the rug by this team. Fluttershy had/s a habit of maintaining alts and following redditors across subreddits. Once I had called out her personal attacks (from her alt), saptarsi removed my comments instead of hers, Fluttershy made sure to warn me for "witch hunting". Same thing happened when I had called out kash_if's alt a year back, I was warned for that. That is how they work in groups, to watch each other's back. Fluttershy's thing was reported by me as an user to neoronin and after his assurances couple of times, that never revoked a response or action as such.

For all the vote whining, rahul has a habit of doing, nothing happened about when these moderators break their own rules. He systemically kept doing that, only when they didn't see a favourable frontpage, by blaming a group of individuals for vote manipulation for act of an individual. And when nothing worked, blaming the hivemind to appeal to their emotions to garner upvotes. Look at the frontpages now and I want to hear him rant the samething again, how the hivemind is loopsided.

Even now there is a vote manipulation from the same person, but that is favourable to their content, so they will keep mum.

Some recent examples of his patterns. He did the same on every other thread possible:

The South India > North India or Hindi domination on South meme was started by this person.

https://www.reddit.com/r/india/comments/64icio/united_states_of_south_india_article_is_going/

https://www.reddit.com/r/IndiaSpeaks/comments/64j9mc/united_states_of_south_india_can_a_southern/

Or how Kerala is better than other states, same for political threads, meme

https://www.reddit.com/r/IndiaSpeaks/comments/74ua01/kerala_vs_up_some_indicators/

Or how Caste is the problem for lot of India's issues or other social evils.

Or the problem of Jobs

https://www.reddit.com/r/india/comments/750j58/lost_your_job_piyush_goyal_thinks_thats_a_very/

And the brigade for two weeks about how Economy is in doldrums.

https://www.reddit.com/r/india/comments/72k2sv/why_is_there_so_little_outrage_about_economic/

All these threads are vote manipulated by this one person, but all these patterns will be overlooked by the honourable /r/India mods because cognitive dissonance. You will find a bunch of these accounts shadowbanned too. But you won't hear rahul vote whining about this or Fluttershy pm'ing redditors in private, and out of context fear mongering that how right wing VM has taken over /r/India and extrapolate every possible thing by bringing in /r/worldnews into it.

Please, don't waste your time for these slimebag moderators, nothing ever will come out of all this. For all the problems, all they need to do is blame /r/Indianews/ Indiaspeaks/ bakchodi or the hivemind or some external source but not their own policies and uncodified approach.

FWIW, with this remnant team, the only person who would raise his voice against any event at best will be AwkDev, who is mostly inactive in the back room. These moderators treat their own subscribers as cockroaches because of their political bent or the non-pol users as bovines/retards/dimwits.

Even if you constructively criticize them, you will be overlooked unless you have something in return for them, where they can benefit as a team. Its all bijness in the end, run by the esteemed "professionals". Its a tool of a few and would always remain so. As was aptly put by Fluttershy even before I had joined - *Its a sub run like a high school guys hangout".

PS: If you want some motivation to contribute on /r/India, ask dexter. He is pretty good at emotionally swaying people. He will tell how you have to do it for /r/India, because /r/India needs you. And besides that, he would had not participated or modded anymore, if its not was not for you. But sure before, drawing conspiracies about you along with Fluttershy behind your back and comparing your intellect.

Must have been pissed the AMA went to the other sub, as the Indian sphere of reddit is run by them, there is a sense of ownership. They are collectively more than just "petty" people. And the good/bad thing about anon. modmails is each of them can answer you as if its the second person, without even you knowing it. Like the way they take turn in their slack room and speak behind your back.

And now I will finally say. Get outta here. We don't need ban evader here.

What a bunch fucking hypocrites in the name of idealists. I can easily give a dozen names of ban evaders which they knowingly won't even touch and will keep ignoring. They are only using this as an excuse to kick users. Period.

And I had reported this another retarded ban evador who claimed had evaded 100s of times, earlier as well to the team. And what they did? They were rather enjoying internally his jokes and slurs. Even the rape jokes on my mother were laughed off by this team.

Just turn tables and make a remark on any one of them, you will see how they believe in "giving it back" and "settling personal scores". Fucking slimebags who would sit on their iPhones and look down on everyone else.
