Colonisation has somewhat preserved elements aspects of English in our vocabulary in South Asia.

For example I almost never hear anyone on the anglosphere say “ta ta” but in Bangladesh it is a semi-regular part of our “goodbye speech”

Another such phrase is “Oil your own machine”, I never hear it in the anglosphere.

Kal el, no!

Bangladesh: Watch Jibon Theke Neya by Zahir Rayhan.

Element X is supposed to eventually replace Element on mobile, so it will probably support it down the line.

The best anti-virus is your brain.

Pakistan has good relations with China - doesn’t mean it didn’t cuck over to American interests when it could. (Operation cyclone anyone?)

They committed a genocide and killed hundreds of thousands of Bengalis in my country and when they were eventually washed by Bengali Guerilla they went over to China crying whenceforth China sent a list of all the Bengali Maoists the NaPak Pak army killed.

Complicated indeed…

Pakistan is and always was a US vassal state.

Smallbean VP. Second-in-Command of the US.

Not according to the Yakubians over at the miserable island.

“Under no pretext should arms and ammunition be surrendered; any attempt to disarm the workers must be frustrated, by force if necessary”

Wait is Vaxry really a fascist? I always got weird vibes over on discord server( I was one of the earliest adapters to Hyprland). I did hear some transphobic allegations, but I thought that was it and Vaxry went on to implement stricter moderation?

If so, that really sucks. Hyprland is probably the best Wayland Window manager.

New York shall soon be under the Mamdani Caliphate inshallah

When a South Asian calls the British monarchy fascist or Churchill a genocider in my experience.

Utter woke nonsense. Back in my days we used to get depressed when playing “Emily is Away”.

Anyone who is not an American Liberal knows she’s right a right-winger. Moreover - no top of that. If we’re into semantics, she’s also a genocide supporter. Joe Biden is the war criminal.

I’m surprised no one recommended syncthing.

Syncthing lets you sync changes on any folder/drive across multiple devices via the local network - no cloud needed. I currently use it for my keepass database, Music folder and Documents folder. It’s als very simple to set up.

Only downside to this is that if your house burns down you’ll lose everything - but a friend suggested me to have important files on an encrypted tarball stored in the cloud.

About two years ago, I had an argument with a random dude who was vehemently denying the fact that it was effectively Churchill and the decisions of the British government that caused the Bengal famine - there was a lot of back and forth, a lot of citing.

Ultimately he came to the conclusion that the famine happened not because of the British, no Churchill was a saint - it was because of lack of biological “food storage” within Bengalis or some bullshit.

An opinion that is considered slightly radical but still milquetoast - is viewed as “tankiysm” by Americans.

I didnt even go into the fact that you guys literally funded a genocide in my own country. I feel no hesitation in hating your govrnment no matter who is in charge.

Cunning at pretending they’re different.

Because there is no platform. Democrats don’t want to give in to the populist social democratic policies because that’ll anger the billionaires. The American masses vote Trump because they see they have barely differeny policies thus they vote the ones who’ll “keep out the gays” more.
