Agreed. It’s the enthusiast’s browser for sure.

Fair enough. I love the browser and while I know there’s ways to emulate the same experience, its native with this one.

What’s wrong with Vivaldi?

Not necessarily, but I get what you mean…

I feel like the primary use of these tools is only grammar and writing assistance. Everything else is just plugging in extra tools to make it more useful… although the way Perplexity does it is considerably more useful than the rest.

What about Claude-Aware coding tho? /s

Truer words have never been said.

Well, here we are. We skipped using this tech for only search Automation and leapfrogged to directly making shit up (once again).

RDR is so beautiful man. I want to finish the games. I’m waiting for the right time.

Your loss

But doesn’t that apply only to individuals? Or am I mistaken?

Man, I was playing Control. My poor laptop was already at its limit rendering the damn game at Medium graphics. But added to that, I was streaming to my buddies.

There’s this one level where we are in one of those dreamlike places and I was supposed to jump to climb a slightly out of reach rock. My laptop, bless it’s soul, could barely chug along at 10-15 fps. I kept missing the rock and falling down into the abyss. After almost 30mins of this, I legit rage quit and played Papers Please 😭.

Turns out, my laptop’s vents were clogged by cat fur (thanks Lisa, my furry baby) and the thermal paste was worse than death valley 💀.

Finished the game a week later. Felt SO GOOD 🤌🏼.

While I haven’t played Halo, I feel you on being stuck on the same level for ages 😭

Especially with finance related stuff like this, its very crucial that such regulations exist. You’re right.

True.

True. Not completely open I guess…

Also true. Its an open standard as far as I can tell.

Lmao. No. UPI is an open standard I think… Open as in you can apply to use it. It is run via the Reserve Bank of India to ensure safety and validity.

But no. None of these are open source. Location tracking is, I think, not across them all…

UPI apps use it because it’s easier to pinpoint where a payment was made, thus ensuring you can verify the payment receiver. That’s all I understand about it atm.

Fair enough. I just wish it were a single super-app since that’s more user-friendly. But its fine.

I’ll be the paragraph guy today.

BHIM stands for BHarat Interface for Money, a payment application that uses India’s money transfer protocol called United Payment Interface (UPI). This makes all payments cashless, from ₹1 to ₹1,00,000. No transaction fees, as of yet.

Digilocker is a government document vault app that allows digital copies of documents to be enforced. You don’t need to carry around the physical copies, the QR code generated by the app is scanned by specialised scanners that validate the validity of the document and also fetches any relevant records. This includes the Driver’s License, Aadhar Card (Indian National Identity Card), PAN Card (Permanent Account Number; used for what is essentially a 2 Factor Authentication system of documents for verification of identity), etc.

Voter ID app is to identify your voting region, and make any changes to the details of your Voter ID.

The Gov.in store is new to me and I don’t think I need one more store on my device, but hey… I don’t use an iPhone 😄.

Why is all of this not a single app? Idk.

Coming back to the point, I don’t mind having important apps like these pre-installed. It helps to have these for people who aren’t as technically inclined as you’d hope.
