Engine overheated on the highway (Tata Altroz 2022) , what should I do?

I was driving on the highway in this heat when my car suddenly started overheating. Had to pull over and wait for a while.

I'm not sure whether it was due to coolant evaporation or something else, but it caught me off guard.

In that situation, what’s the right thing to do? Should I have added water/coolant immediately or just let the engine cool down?

Also, how do you guys prevent this from happening?

What actually works best to treat fungal rashes?

With this heat and sweating, I’ve been dealing with some kind of rash, and I think it might be fungal. What do you guys usually do to treat it quickly? Is it enough to keep the area dry and clean, or do you need antifungal creams/powders? Also, how long does it usually take to go away?

Has anyone else noticed that people seem more exhausted now even when technology is supposed to make life easier?

We have apps for everything, instant communication, AI tools, food delivery, remote work, etc., but everyone still seems mentally drained all the time.

What are we actually doing differently compared to 10–15 years ago?

Why do people slowly stop replying to someone instead of just saying they don’t want to talk anymore?

I’ve noticed this happens a lot in friendships, dating, and even work conversations. People go from replying normally to taking days, then eventually disappearing entirely.

Is it mostly because people want to avoid confrontation, or is there another reason?

NEET UG 2026 cancelled – what should students do now?

Seeing a lot of confusion and stress among NEET 2026 aspirants right now, as exams are cancelled due to paper leak issues, and a re-exam could be conducted.

For students, this situation is really tough. Many of them spent months (even years) preparing for this attempt, and now they’re left uncertain about what to do next.

Some common concerns students seem to be facing:

  • Whether they should restart preparation immediately or wait for official confirmation
  • What happens to those who performed well in the exam
  • How to stay mentally focused if a re-exam actually happens

The bigger issue here is not just the exam, but the uncertainty and pressure it creates.

What do you all think students should ideally do in this situation? Continue studying as if a re-exam is certain, or pause until there’s clarity?

Would be good to hear different perspectives on this.

Shreyas Iyer Set to Replace Suryakumar Yadav as India’s T20I Captain After IPL 2026?

So reports suggest Shreyas Iyer could replace Suryakumar Yadav as India’s T20I captain after IPL 2026.

https://preview.redd.it/icajf8dfz20h1.png?width=201&format=png&auto=webp&s=aaf810e6dbb89803f1921dad5b909a96fde8da16

Honestly, this feels less about one bad season and more about planning for the next T20 cycle. Shreyas has quietly built a strong captaincy reputation in domestic cricket and the IPL, while SKY’s recent form + fitness concerns seem to have worried selectors.

But dropping a captain who won a T20 World Cup and hasn’t lost a T20I series as captain would still be a massive call.

Personally feels like the selectors are already thinking about 2028, not just the next series, but nothing official from the Board of Control for Cricket in India yet.

NSE just launched Electronic Gold Receipts (EGR) - Is this the future of gold investing in India?

NSE officially launched EGR on May 4, 2026. You can now buy, hold, and trade gold digitally on the stock exchange, just like stocks, with the option to convert to physical gold anytime. SEBI-regulated, demat-held, and potentially game-changing.

EGR Gold

So I've been reading about EGRs all week, and honestly, I'm surprised this isn't getting more attention here. For those who don't know, Electronic Gold Receipts are a brand-new way to invest in gold that's different from Gold ETFs, Sovereign Gold Bonds, or plain digital gold.

What makes EGR different?

  • Each EGR = actual physical gold stored in a SEBI-approved vault. Not a derivative, not a paper promise.
  • Traded on NSE/BSE just like stocks, real-time prices, settle via clearing corp.
  • Available in small denominations (1g, 10g, 100g), no need to buy a full bar.
  • "One nation, one rate" pricing, no more paying different rates at different jewellers.
  • You can convert back to physical gold anytime (10 AM–3 PM window on working days).
  • GST is only applicable when you take physical delivery, not while trading digitally.

My take: EGR fills a real gap. SGBs are basically dead (no new issuances), ETFs don't give you physical gold, and unregulated digital gold has had trust issues. EGR is SEBI-backed, exchange-traded, and physically redeemable. Worth watching, especially if liquidity improves.

Anyone here already invested or planning to? Would love to hear thoughts, especially from folks who were holding digital gold on apps like PhonePe/Paytm, Zerodha, Groww, or any others.

India recorded its highest-ever monthly GST collection in April 2026 at ₹2.42 lakh crore, showing an 8.7% year-on-year increase. Net GST collections stood at ₹2.11 lakh crore after refunds.

A few key takeaways:

  • Import-related GST revenue surged nearly 26%, indicating strong trade activity.
  • Domestic GST growth was comparatively modest at around 4.3%.
  • Refunds increased over 19%, suggesting faster processing and higher business activity.
  • April is usually a strong month due to year-end reconciliation, but this is still a record-breaking number.

Many economists are viewing this as a sign of:

  • better tax compliance,
  • continued formalisation of the economy,
  • and resilient economic activity despite global uncertainty.

That said, some people argue that rising GST collections don’t always mean stronger real growth; inflation and higher prices can also push tax numbers up. Similar debates are already happening across Reddit discussions.

Do you think this reflects genuine economic strength, or is inflation doing most of the heavy lifting?

April completely flipped the narrative for copper trades.

https://preview.redd.it/1fty093lcnzg1.jpg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=468d7628220eb245523005f72e1d9fdcce4700f5

Copper closed in April around $12,911 per metric ton, climbing back toward record-high territory after the March sell-off. What’s interesting is that the rebound wasn’t just random momentum, it seems tied to a broader realisation that the long-term copper story is still very much intact.

Some of the main drivers:

  • Supply constraints are still a real issue
  • Potential shortages in sulfuric acid + diesel could tighten copper production further
  • Energy security is becoming a bigger geopolitical theme
  • Electrification demand (EVs, grids, AI/data centres, infrastructure) keeps growing
  • Markets may now better understand how Middle East tensions actually impact copper fundamentals

One quote that stood out to me from Sprott’s analysis:

>

That’s basically the entire bull thesis in one sentence.

What I also find interesting is how copper keeps acting like a “macro truth detector.” If global infrastructure, electrification, and industrial demand are genuinely accelerating, copper almost has to move higher eventually because there just isn’t enough new supply coming online fast enough.

A few questions for the sub:

  • Do you think copper is entering a multi-year supercycle?
  • Is this rebound sustainable, or just another commodities fakeout?
  • Are you bullish on miners, futures, or physical copper exposure?
  • Anyone watching funds like SCOP or sticking to mining equities instead?

Feels like copper is quietly becoming one of the most important commodities of the decade.
