Bloodywood is a band from New Delhi. They blend metal with traditional Indian folk instruments. It sounds hokey, but it’s done brilliantly.
This video for “Tadka” is badass. It’s a song about cooking, family, and respect for women/elders. It’s everything you wouldn’t expect from a metal song.
But it slays. If you love metal, get ready to move your body.

For sake of trying something new, we introduced #MapComplete ( @MapComplete ) as the first editor for our 6 new mappers. While there were some rough edges, it enabled them to contribute photos to #Panoramax.

Been adding restaurant ratings and reviews to Mangrove Reviews @mangroveReviews using MapComplete @MapComplete
I’ve written 6 so far, and there’s more to come! Plenty of WIP drafts to finish 🙂
This really plays to my strengths, combining my love for
If you like my open data reviews and photos, please support me on Liberapay! I need to be able to afford eating out to continue reviewing 😅
PS MapComplete currently removes all line breaks from the reviews it displays (which breaks things like paragraphs and bullet lists), and Mangrove Reviews truncates the text of the reviews it displays. So there’s no perfect way to view the reviews right now…I’ve let the developers know about these issues and they will hopefully fix them soon.

Anyone who is blind, or who has worked with the blind, knows how expensive our technology can be. This couldn't be more true with relation to braille displays. Even the cheapest costs at least $799, and it's already behind the newest in that line, at $899. This is the Orbit Reader 20 and 20+. Now, a student in India wants to change that by creating a display that is truly affordable (under $50)! Please pass this on, so that we can give him greater recognition within the blind community. Even if it costs a bit more than he initially suspected it would, there is no excuse for the $2,000 to $5,000 average price of such technology when cheaper alternatives can be designed! He is determined to bring this to market, so let's help him do it and show our appreciation for his hard work on this life-changing project!

I believe that 'cars' and 'houses' are being used by terrorists. With this train of thought, India must ban those too. They also use 'food'.

I hope India should never get the realisation that a terrorist can still run his own end to end encrypted chat service on the Internet.
If ever they realise this fact, they might ban the Internet on whole.

#India banned encrypted apps @briar @element & @threemaapp based on the argument that these apps would be used by "terrorists".
This makes India the first democracy to act like Russian or Iranian autocrats.

🚨 🇮🇳 #India banning #OpenSource #Matrix clients like #Element is equivalent to banning your favorite web browser or email client.
🤯 Can you imagine if Firefox, Chrome, or Thunderbird were banned nationally?
