They also messed up Nokia before killing Windows Phone. Nokia’s Symbian used to be a serious competition to android.

When Microsoft bought Nokia, Steve Balmer (ex-Microsoft) was at Nokia helm. His work with Nokia was so much in the interest of Microsoft that he was rewarded with head chair of Microsoft not much time later.

I am saying that it was probably sabotaged by Microsoft leaning leadership at Nokia.

Also, despite being Linux core, Android itself was shit in the beginning. Gingerbread (G) was the first edition that won favour with buyers. Hardly any takers of android for its first six versions (A to F). Not even the techy nerds were buying Eclairs.

Around 20 years ago, iOS used to outclass everything by a big margin. Android, Nokia/Symbian, RIM, etc were closer to each other than to Apple. And now …

As of 2024, fresh competition to android is needed.

Looks like faulty generalization followed by application of its result to another specific case.

Don’t be paranoid. They scans our chats against problematic keywords to find out bad guys, and metadata helps law enforcement in catching these bad guys. /s

In Gita, Shri Krishna says “I am everything”. This kind of kills the “otherness” of everything.

(Ex-atheist here) That our beliefs are rigid, and won’t change.

I won’t use that word. From atheism, I went to igtheism.

I know nothing colloquial in the concept of igtheism. Formally, by its very existence, igtheism proves that atheism can only be conditional - hence it is not even a proper concept.

As for theists, the gods are equally undefined for atheists/agnostics. For an igtheist, beliefs of atheists/ignostics (or lack of belief) cannot be taken any more seriously than those of theists, until definitions are provided.

Take an example. There are people who say that god is nothing but merely energy. Can someone call herself an atheist if this is definition of god?

Sans definition of god, theism/atheism do not make sense.

What kind of secrets are there that voters must not be aware about? Not one.

Find time to talk to people in person, at least the ones that are close to you. Just go with them for coffee/snack/beer and talk without the aid of technology.

EDIT : Make it a rule to have coffee/snacks/drinks only in company of real people.

The result of these election must be nullified, and elections should be held afresh - at the minimum.

Any political statement that begins with “x-language speaking states” is racist trash, and must be treated as such.
