What are your best intrusive ads ideas?
  • For some context, it's because Indian movies were conventionally much longer in length (2.5 to 3 hours). Movies are written to have a cliffhanger at the interval, so much so that it's sometimes referred to as a meta joke.

  • Indian voters battle extreme temperatures as intense heat wave hits region
  • I can answer that as an Indian casually in the market for an EV. The infrastructure isn't really as good as western countries. Charging stations aren't easy to find outside of major highways, and they aren't as visible.

    For intra-city users:

    EVs are considerably more expensive than ICEs and India is a very price-sensitive market. The biggest successes for EVs here are Tata Nexons, for example. The ICE version starts at almost half the price of the EV.

    Buyers will compare and run the numbers and unless you use it a lot, it can go either way. That combined with the iffy infrastructure is enough to make many people just go for ICE right now, in the hope that their next car will be an EV, when prices come down and tech is next-gen.

    It is bound to happen. Prices are falling and more EVs are on the road, but it hasn't reached critical mass yet.

    Also, BYDs are actually quite expensive here compared to home grown solutions. Check the Tata EV range out.

    Another factor that you're overlooking is that India has a huge market of 2 wheelers, 3 wheelers and mini trucks. That's a space where EVs make a lot of sense. They pay for themselves the more you use them.

    So in food delivery, logistics, courier services etc., there's already a very noticeable shift in motion, and that's promising.

  • Android 15 can tell you how long your phone's storage chip will last
  • SD cards don't perform wear leveling while ssds do. This is why there are specific SD cards meant for surveillance cameras. They have additional wear levelling circuitry at the expense of speed.

    So photographers who fill up their sd cards end up writing over the same spots repeatedly and wear them out.

  • Which games that were reviewed poorly did you actually like?
  • Just cause 4. I loved fooling around in JC3 and almost 100%ed it a couple of years back, barring some challenges I couldn't find. I've read so much about 4 being a downgrade that i didn't bother.

    I had it on gamepass though and tried it a week ago. The cut scenes are atrocious but the story is compelling enough, and the villains actually seem more interesting. Other than the graphics, the actual art design is pretty good and it's a good change of pace through a South American setting.

    Edit: pre-coffee words corrected

  • Controller recommendedation?
  • Others have already recommended it but I want to pitch in; my 8bitdo pro is the best I've used (others I have are the DS4, xbox, a few Logitechs including the submarine one, and a fancy-ass Astro).

  • Was the allegations against michael jackson ever proven right or wrong ?
  • That's an interesting example. Here in my city there was a case of a transport officer crashing his car into someone. He smelled of alcohol and was slurring and it was in the news cycle with great outrage and irony.

    A few days later news broke that he had died of diabetes-related complications. Apparently the smell was not alcohol, it was ketones from him being hyperglycemic.

    Going back to your "standards" statement, for an individual it would make sense not to get into a car this person drives. At the same time it makes sense for the court not to convict him until he is proven guilty. Both standards have their place and rightfully so.

  • Adding services to an existing Docker nginx container

    Hi, I'm just getting started with Docker, so apologies in advance if this seems silly.

    I used to self-host multiple services (RSS reader, invoicing software, personal wiki) directly on a VPS using nginx and mariadb. I messed it up recently and am starting again, but this time I took the docker route.

    So I've set up the invoicing software (InvoiceNinja), and everything is working as I want.

    Now that I want to add the other services (ttrss and dokuwiki), should I set up new containers? It feels wasteful.

    Instead, if I add additional configs to the existing servers that the InvoiceNinja docker-compose generated (nginx and mysql), I'm worried that an update to Invoiceninja would have a chance of messing up the other setups as well.

    It shouldn't, from my understanding of how docker containers work, but I'm not 100% sure. What would be the best way to proceed?
