  • Or as a Norm MacDonald's joke:

    "A new study shows that Cheese & snacks needs to be stored on the counter, not the cupboard.

    More outstanding research from the University of Scooby-Doo"

  • I think Indians are willing to ignore an encroachment on some of their liberties, as long as there is actual improvement in their daily lives. Its the same as Chinese mainland citizens with the CCP. Living conditions for most Indians is improving rapidly compared to their parents for a majority of Indians. In their minds it's ok to not have, say freedom of speech, if you can guarantee food on the table, which wasn't so a decade back.

    What most Indians don't realize that this is a deal with the devil. Letting go of too many rights, or adding more gatekeepers to their freedoms, is going to come bite them in the back. The Indian government has historically had a heavy hand on their citizens for protectionism, something they learnt from their Soviet influence. What remains to be seen is will they ease up in the future, when Indians will eventually start to suffocate in these restrictions.

    History can grimly predict this, but I have my fingers crossed.

  • This could actually be why they're entering China. Emerging economies might buy much cheaper older tech from Chinese machines instead of cutting edge &expensive ASML machines.. Once the tech is out, Pandoras box can't be unopened (from ASML's perspective). Stifling Chinese adoption early might make any Chinese competitor nonviable without govt support. Overall might be worth any retribution from the US.

  • @criitz made an good point in a reply to a comment in this same chain: https://reddthat.com/comment/16623939

    Essentially, if we made fun of his head shape, someone normal with a simar head shape is going to read: "that head shape is bad" & is going to be hurt & more self conscious of something they can't control. That is collateral damage to an innocent bystander you may not have intended.

  • While I get what you're saying, a lot of people are practically powerless in front of these billionaires, that shape & challenge their very existence. In the face of such helplessness, I can understand attacking someone in that much powers' uncontrollable attributes.

    It's easy to be trapped into thinking "treat them as you'd like to be treated", when the oppressor proves time & time again they will not treat you like one of them.

    Just my 2¢

  • Genuine question: is this corporate greed or an effect of the war in neighboring Ukraine?

    Might be corporate greed?

    Kaufland Croatia announcing a price cut on over 1,000 products from 5 February.

    Another supermarket chain, Konzum, said it planned to inject €1 million into reducing and freezing prices on 250 domestic products ...

  • This definitely isn't my jam. That dosa looks good but kinda dry/think/crispy, probably to be eaten with chutney. I need something to mop up the curry like roti, chapati or rice. With this I'd be eating chicken curry & dosa, but separately.

    A worthy change could be an uttapam (just make the same dosa but thicker) or a neer dosa? That'd be the bomb.
