Microsoft is watching 🫪

I don't mean to come across as paranoid, but it's hard not to find Microsoft's telemetry practices unusual. The company gathers extensive information about users, including web browsing habits and gaming activity, and can potentially associate that data with social media profiles. Microsoft says this information is collected to enhance the overall Windows user experience, but the scope of the data collection raises understandable questions about privacy.

Subtle foreshadowing in The shining

I read The Shining a month ago and I was curious about the wasp nest portion of the novel. Jack gave Danny a wasp nest that was empty, but at night it was full of wasps, and some of them attacked Danny. Now that incident has caught my mind, and I was thinking it was actually a subtle foreshadowing of the Overlook. The dead wasps came back, showing that the past guests are haunting the Overlook.

Guys, drop your industry's secrets

I will start.

Njn 6 month+ oru mobile shopill part time work cheytharnu. The biggest scam is display changing. Display maran Varumbo 3 quality display (lcd) 3 different rate und enn parayum, 1600, 2500, 3200 rs respectively. Koodiya displaykk better quality ann parayum + 6 month warranty. Kornja displaykk quality koravrikkum orupad kalam niikkullan paraym.

But the truth is all are the same. Eth rate paranjalum otta display ann idunne. 1600 inte display um 3200 inte display um same ann. And they get this display at 600-700 in wholesale rate. Almost 100% margin. Led display Athil koodum.

And don't ever give password while giving the phone to the shop. Not everyone but some of them check your personal stuff. Ente ottumikka coworkersum lock thuran phone nookum, gallery, messages and especially recycle bin. Phone kodukkumo password chodikkumbo tharan pattulan parayanam.

Arch people...

Hey guys, how did you actually install Arch? Did you go full manual with the wiki open in a million tabs and suffer through partitioning hell, or did you just use "archinstall"? How was the whole experience for you?

I tried to install the manual way a couple of times and I think the archinstall way is much more efficient. What do you think?
