Does not matter what they're demanding, all they have to do is create the same stink in Srinagar. What's our move ?

Well freedom for them does not always mean secession, it would be more mundane things like AFSPA. Thats a pretty major demand, but it means we risk the place blowing up.

These revolts need to be crushed by use of power.. No other way ..

These countries are all nearly Sharia anyway. The diference is Tunisia & Egypt have a constitution that supercedes.

When you say going towards Sharia, you mean like Saudi Arabia. Given the educated classes were largely responsible for the uprising in Tunisa, i would say it is unlikely. Egypt is also not likely to become an islamic republic.

The idea that these countries will end up with Taliban's is completely unfounded, none of these countries has gone through remotely the same amount of trauma as Afghanisatan.

Don't you find it double standards to say we need democracy but these countries cannot be trusted ? I'm sure ppl in those countries would feel they are more than capable of choosing the govt system they want and anyone who disagrees can just get lost.

Until the Islamists get kicked on the ground in those countries in a free for all & fair election there will always be this notion that the Islamists will win.

(yes we do play on garena)


about the server thing . : why would mg bother with garena (unless he play himself) . we can just go and host our own games on garena . pigns will be crazy low already . only the latest games ( since the servers are secured and their code is unrelased to public )need servers to be hosted by some company level guy like mg. example bad company 2 , cod black ops ......
but then mg (or any1 else for that matter) will only host such servers if there is demand . and as you know , only very few indian guys spend money on original games when they are given an option for pirated downloading/purchase. so no one is gonna start a black ops / bc2 server for 4-5 ppl.

other old games( if you mean like counter strike , call of duty 4, 5, dota , warcraft ) , you can create a server yourself!
what games do u have in mind ?

My bad ... But we are in Hayai lite section & we were discussing Tikonna so I assumed u or ur frnd was on on a wireless connection(especially seeing that ping)

Anyway about the server... If u read through MG's posts he has mentioned several times that he would like to host game servers like Steam/PSN/Xbox Live so as to give customers a nice gaming experience... Well it does make sense as Hayai is trying to target a niche & Gaming in India is a niche that requires a very high bandwidth & is generally ignored... But I have a feeling this niche is gonna explode in the next few years & when it does Companies like Hayai will benefit hugely from it :thumbsup:...

BTW I no most of the gamers in India are on pirated versions thats y I suggested if he is gonna host servers he should also try & accomodate a Garena server coz if lets ppl play online even if the games are pirated... All this of course depends if MG can strike some kind of arrangement with the concerned ppl...

Posted: 20 Feb 2011 11:41 AM PST

Tatasky


Movies on Tata Sky DTH Showcase

Posted: 20 Feb 2011 11:19 AM PST

Airtel is giving Tees Mar Khan @ 25 wherein TataSky is giving @50. Airtel is giving Social Network @ 50 but TataSky is giving at 75.

Tatasky is charging premium for this as usual. Airtel is even giving some good movies for Rs10/- .... Better than our next door DVD library.

what is css.php ??

Posted: 20 Feb 2011 10:58 AM PST

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a style sheet language used to describe the presentation semantics (the look and formatting) of a document written in a markup language. Its most common application is to style web pages written in HTML and XHTML.
PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor is a general-purpose scripting language that was originally designed for web development to produce dynamic web pages.


If this sounds geek to you basically these are used to design web pages. I think the browser may not be suitable for this web page. Which version of Safari are you using

There are just 3 crore people in our country who pay income tax, which means well under 3% of the total population is paying income tax.

Other 97% and that include losers demanding railway tickets at 50% discount for SC/ST/Muslims are just living off the hard work of 3% who is paying taxes.

As far as welfare schemes are concerned, I already quoted Rajiv Gandhi saying that out of every rupee spent by the government on poor people only 10 paise actually reach their intended beneficiaries.

TATA Indicom photon plus - very poor customer service - sucks money

Posted: 20 Feb 2011 07:40 AM PST

A suggestion:
List out all your complaint numbers with the dates of resolution given.
Call the Nodal officer, calmly explain the whole story to him/her.
If she still doesnt agree, play the conversations you have recorded over the phone.
And, when you call up, first the phone will be received by a secretary type of person, so make sure you are talking to the nodal officer(ask clearly "Are you the Nodal officer?" ) before explaining everything
It took me ~30 mins, but I did manage to receive a refund of approx Rs 800 when my photon was giving pathetic speeds for about 3 months

---------- Post added at 09:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:06 PM ----------

Just noticed: you didnt get any mail from TATA confirming your recharge?
If so, it means your recharge never went from ichoose's accounts to TATA accounts.
unless you get a mail from tata photon systems that the recharge is successful, you cannot be sure. Its unlikely you will receive any help from the nodal officer then, but still try

BSNL Broadband: Common Questions

Posted: 20 Feb 2011 05:48 AM PST

Hi every body,
I applied for plan change on 25.10.2010 and submitted the application on the same day at BSNL office Chittoor; the concerned staff told me my plan will be changed from 01.11.2010. But without any prior notice on 28.10.2010 my HOME 500UL (RURAL) was changed to HOME 500 Night free (2.00A.M. to 8.00 A.M) as I requested. I downloaded heavily from 6.00 P.M. on 28.10.2010 to 31.10.2010 as usually because I was having unlimited home plan. The download speed was very good up to 240KBPS against 25 to 30KBPS previously.When I checked my bill amount by dialing to 1500 on 29.10.2010 they told me my request to plan change with effect from 7.15 P.M. on 28.10.2010. Do you know how much bill got for that month? Instead of Rs.500/- I got Rs.3,111/-. When I questioned about this to SDOT he simply said the rules have been changed now and they will change the plan request immediately as soon as they receive request fro customers.
Most of the official at BSNL don't have technical knowledge about computers and broad band service.
I suggest the customers if you want to download more night unlimitted plan is the best. All the other unlimited plans are waste in my opinion.
Enjoy yourself and a have good time.

ESPN/Star Cric HD . . anyone noticing the following . . . ??

Posted: 20 Feb 2011 03:51 AM PST

Well, got ESPN HD activated. Its definitely a relief to watch the matches ad free . . .that alone i guess is worth the 165 bucks airtel's charging.

There is definitely more detail . . but the difference from SD is not exponential . .as was in the case of the commonwealth HD broadcast viz a vis the DD SD channel. Anyone else feeling the same?

Also the all the cricketers seem too tall and lanky. Couldn't put my finger on it but something about the picture just seemed wrong. Then it hit me as I was watching a HD .mkv video.

Apparently it seems to me that the HD cam/equipment/broadcast is of a wider aspect ratio that the 16:9 that almost all HD televisions are. Its seems to be a 21:9 broadcast.

While watching the above mentioned .mkv video i had letterboxing (1280 x 528 resolution 21:9 format) and using the stretch to fit windows option the characters in the video appeared tall and unusual . . similar to how it seems on ESPN HD.

Anyone else noticing this . . or is it just in me head?:confuse:


Speed on "256kbps upto 2Mbps" Limited plans?

Ah cool thanks! Wish these plans were not LIMITED :( My avg usage on my UNLIMITED 1 Mbps plan is around 8-10 GB per month, so I guess I'd be better off with the 2 Mbps speed since it catches good speed as you say, but the downside is that
it is LIMITED and any extra usage would shoot up the cost tremendously.

But one thing people may not seed more than downloads, to save the bandwidth.

I wish there were more GUYZ like u IN iNDIA for development purpose in different fields.

If we give the same amount of bandwidth for uploads as we do downloads, what reason is there to "save bandwidth"? I would encourage people to seed as much as they can, to at least a ratio of at least 1.0 if possible.

Few Days Back :

Raj. Congress Minister have Exposed "Our Honorable President of India used to clean dishes and cook food for Indra Gandhi' and because of it she become president of India..

So now what could we expect in our country ? Where our Prime Minister is even HELPLESS..

To put it rather bluntly, and without any apologies, we are morally and culturally corrupt. From the ordinary cops, to the CM or the PM - we nurture corruption, nepotism and filth in our close proximity without battling an eyelid. Be it moral depravity, social callousness, or human brutality, nothing shocks us. We have accepted the “juggad” as the way of life. If there is “something in it for me” anything goes.

We are tolerant because we are habituated to live on crumbs and proud of it - never caring to ask if we deserve the rewards that someone else worked for. We, our people, our institutions, are like street dogs - can be easily swayed from our goals by the scent of some easy crumbs that is put in out way.
