I don't see how hyphenation could be left "on" when publishing ebooks. Nearly all the platforms I've used allow the user to control font face and font size. Hyphenation would malfunction under such circumstances.

All the lives lost across the world to COVID and the economic impact of the previous year has demonstrated that "make peace" with CCP is not a good idea. I am, by no means, advocating war. But the rest of the world has to take m

I can't stand Bobde, but be careful with assuming that the accused guy in your story did anything wrong at all. These are all just allegations. IPC 498A is probably the most fraudulently applied law these days, along with other similar

India has been giving away planeloads of vaccines. Presumably, they are going to get used by healthcare workers and other supporting industries in those countries. I don't mind if I have to wait a couple of months longer for my turn.

I have always wondered why the cockatoo screams in this [1] video, when it is the aggressor. I suppose that's the cockatoo's way of laughing? [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRQebpwoOg8

Well, aminozuur is pointing out hypocrisy. Facebook is not applying the same rules to everyone. That is bad. That aside, my own views are similar to sep_field's... with the exception that I would silently prefer Facebook to go away, wi

I don't know the ground reality of how things work in USA. The impression I get is that it is better than India. In my experience, western Europe gets it right. When I wrote about impartiality, I was referring to how Indian govt. offic

One big lesson that India needs to learn from saner countries is consistent and impartial law enforcement. I am not talking about just traffic deaths, but across all problems. India has to get that right first, and then all the other prob

Taxation has nothing to do with it. Indian drivers are reckless. Crash tests are useless when Indian drivers are running over people.

While gridlocks do bring down average driving speeds in big cities, reckless driving when not in gridlocks is far too common. My own house is in a residential area, and yet, I hear drivers constantly honking while zipping by. Moreover, it d

LineageOS is Android. The usual Google Play store is available on it (after installation of gapps). Apparently Privacy Guard is gone in the latest LineageOS. If you're on Android, give this a try: https://github.com/O
