Not happening. India is not afaik on a war footing.
Now, I'm not of the belief that there is a genocide happening in Gaza, but it's clear as day that there have been multiple war crimes occurring in the past year or more, for example the recent attack on a clearly marked and visible ambulance convoy.
If Americans had any sense, they'd stop their politicians dragging them into the chaos in the Levant, but since AIPAC has been funding many key people on the Hill and the WH is also seemingly fatally compromised by Israeli interests, my guess is that it won't happen anytime soon.
It won't end well for the USA, I'm afraid.

Reminder that politicians that want to marginalize cash use are dumb and the ones that want to abolish #cash are outright evil.
That, and the Spanish red government wants to shut down their nuclear power.
I'm hoping today's event will dissuade them from going ahead with that plan.

"Absolute Scam, Stay Away, Save your time and Money!!
I had an absolutely terrible experience with Vultr, and I strongly advise everyone to stay away from this scam company. Their customer service is non-existent, and their platform is misleading. They promise services, but once you add your credit card, they charge you without providing any actual instance or service.
In my case, they charged me $68 without reason, and after contacting my bank, it was proven to be financial fraud. Despite repeated attempts to reach out to their support team, I received no response or resolution. I wasted hours trying to get my money back, but their team either ignored my complaints or gave generic, unhelpful responses.
Itβs clear that Vultr is running a shady operation with unfair billing practices. They take your money without delivering the promised service and leave you stranded. I wouldnβt trust them with any personal or financial information.
If youβre considering Vultr, please think twiceβthere are far more reliable and trustworthy alternatives out there. Save yourself the frustration and avoid this fraudulent company at all costs!"

"Vultr is a huge gamble. The servers are somewhat fast, but they're really not. The staff are utterly unhelpful, you can ask a simple question and they will spew out a long irrelevant reply, almost as if its an AI just signing human names. I simply asked for a concise yes/no for a very basic question, and they proceed to list this huge list of irrelevant resources and guides. The deploy page is such a labyrinth, making it much more complicated than it has to be. They will charge you more than you used and rip you off. While it may be good for power efficient things, at that point, just host it yourself. Everything is portrayed to be extremely professional, but it's really not."

"They have been charging me 18% GST since 2 yrs, however, they have not paid taxes to the Indian Government. When I asked them to send the tax invoices, they ignored me, when i asked for the refund of the taxes collected, they refused to refund. They have collected more than $200 in taxes yet not paid a single dollar to Indian Government."
Interesting revenue strategy...

2/3rds of the reviews are 1*.
Very bad.
The assholes at Vultr decided to ban me yesterday.
They asked for explanations of what I used my server for and when I said "nostr" they just told me to get the fuck out.
They gave me 12 hours to access my data and migrate all my dozens of relays and services. All while treating me like a fucking criminal.
I searched for an AI to help me migrate all my stuff and found this Warp tool that is pretty damn good.
It came up with a single one linger to deploy my strfry instances, do strfry db migration, configure HTTP server, everything! I can even tell it "hey, setup blossom on blossom.f7z.io and only allow my pubkey to upload stuff"
Damn fucking wild.
A lifetime ago, I used to be a sysops at a hosting company. Migrating this much stuff would have taken me about a week of fighting old package versions, database migrations, updating configurations.
Now I literally gave root access to an LLM to help me out and it literally did it extremely well. The setup it accomplished is already better than my very ad-hoc deployment I had in my previous server.
Warp terminal app (with ref-link, just like nostr:nprofile1qyvhwumn8ghj76rzwghxxmmjv93kcefwwdhkx6tpdshsz8nhwden5te0dp38ytnrdaexzcmvv5h8xmmrd9skctmfde3x77qqyztuwzjyxe4x2dwpgken87tna2rdlhpd02va5cvvgrrywpddnr3jy4ywtuu taught me) π
Tell me who owns Vultr.
He could demand payout and on failure declare the US bankrupt. π
This week, I delivered a ThinkPad T540p laptop to a customer that I had upgraded to Windows 11 for them (not officially supported by Microsoft). Was giving them a tour of the basic features, navigation and programs... but LibreOffice wouldn't open.
It wouldn't until I changed the "compatibility mode" setting for LibreOffice to "Windows 8".
Here's a guide: https://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch001894.htm

How about Windows 9 though? π
Impossible to know if these are real commies or some shady actors that are trying to agitate impressionable youths into doing unconscionable things, but in any case it's sick to advance such an idea in a public forum.
There are plenty of deeply unpleasant and/or dangerous people in the far-left milieu and it would be another great tragedy for our societies if people like these got their hands on the levers of power.
Too many millions of humans have died under their "progressive social programs" and fanatic brutality and we should absolutely not allow this to happen again.
#soc #history
Still gets you into trouble if you talk about the two million dead and displaced Armenians in Turkey today.
#genocide #crimes
Don't. The inks are carcinogenic and the procedures rarely sufficiently hygienic.
I'll take your advice.
