    Oh,you liked it.

    didn't you found it similar to john wick?

    I even saw a post where the posters of both movies were kind of same.

     

    Btw you can also watch rambo  last blood, that was a perfect old school movie that you'r talking about .

    I infact liked Nobody a bit more than JW3. It felt fresh and simple, like satisfying a guilty pleasure.

    I Saw you guys talking fitness .

    Just Want to share my situation here

    Since covid hit the world i barely move my body. These two years was worst in terms of fitness.

    However i didnt put on wieght ,but things are much shittier than just the weight issue.btw weight was never an issue. I can always easily gain or lose it.

    But I started having problems in my lower back since last year. And i know the reason, for complete two years i have only two postures,either i was lay on the bed or sat on it .

    my dad sarted saying stuff now  "when i was at your age ,i was like a machine,i could keep going all day long,there is no word like stress i knew about"  blah blah 

     

    i want to change things,i dont want to face these old age problems at this stage of my life,im f@#king young.

     

    but these recent years makes me too lazy .i keep scheduling thing for tommorow. 

    i think i should start with the most difficult part,waking up early.and i hope it would make the whole process easy.

     

    I just need a little push guys ,if someone has any advice or anything to say. Pls Go for it.

     

     

    Just one question:

    • Do you work from home?

    Did I break the record for IVG? :D 

     

    Long story short - 18th December's courier was lost. What followed was - 1.5 months of investigation around how was it lost & who's fault was it. And finally - the seller decided to resend. 

     

    Investigation still open as to who's fault was it - seller, courier or mine (who ordered a gift from a relatively unknown website :rolleyes:)

    Yes you're the official record-holder :P

     

    It must have been hectic trying to co-ordinate for such a long time. Thanks for it and to @KunjanPSD for being patient as well

    Enjoy it while it lasts. It gets old fast, and then the only time you’re at peak sub is when you’re entertaining friends. 

    I thankfully haven't gotten over the initial :wub: and still adore my sub :wub:  Ofcourse I sometimes think about upgrading to a bigger sub but an upgrade will ANNIHILATE my budget for the next year :cry:

    Hi guys, anyone knows if we've a shop/service in Bangalore where we can purchase HT components and they also set up the same including cabling, tuning etc in the house ?

    Yes! I can link you to shops but beware, not every shop stocks what you might want. Are you sure on what you want to get? Based on that we can find dealers who will co-ordinate everything for you.

    There's a difference between panic and prudence. Some points in the article are dangerous, like opening schools. We already have the new Omicron BA2 sub variant running amok in many countries, and don't really know the effects. We don't know how far has Omicron replaced delta. Large scale gatherings like schools are prime areas for viruses to mutate and evolve even more rapidly, since there will be a lot of crossover due to high transmissible nature of the virus. 

    The article also asks for better and more labs to ensure higher sequencing of viruses, something which we don't have, nor have we heard anything about it from the government. 

    The healthcare infrastructure is also not evolved enough to tackle another delta like strain, which again harps back to prudence. 

    In an ideal world, everyone would take precautions, with free and widely available healthcare, and excellent genomic sequencing etc. But we don't live in an ideal world. Cost of healthcare is an immense burden. Someone well off might not care, but a middle class person would possibly deplete their life savings if kept for 2-3 weeks in the ICU. 

    You're not panicking NOW as long as your child is doing ok on fever reducing meds. But those who are not responding or are getting serious infections will obviously panic, specially kids. 

    Hence it's only wise to be prudent, and keep your gaurds up. Long COVID is real. We don't even know how our kids (or for that matter, ourselves) will be effected in the long run. 

     

    This. Also with people comparing it to flu, we sort of know that flu is mostly harmless and has no long term affects (Yes, some people succumb to flu as well) but equating flu and corona is not the correct analogy since we don't even know about all the long term effects of Corona, let alone that people are dying because of it and a lot of people have had long term and adverse affects

    Wifi 6E is kind of an addendum to Wifi 6 to use the 6GHz bands.

     

    This, it is separate and doesn't have devices supporting 6Ghz as of now whereas a lot of devices already are wifi6 capable such as PS5, iphone etc. For any new purchase I'd suggest getting wifi6 as even cheap routers have it

    everything is treated as "thoda saa sardi zukaam". 

    Sad thing is that everyone is treating is as just another cold because they want to justify their actions. Like companies calling it so so they can call employees, people going out with wearing masks. When I was out, I asked a friend why isn't she wearing a mask she said 'har kisi ko hona ki hai, experts ne kahan hai koi nahi bachega corona se'.

    So I guess it's either RBK50 or figuring out if I can run a physical wire (don't want to).

    And I need a few ports which Orbi provides as I want my Ps5 & XSX to be hard wired.

    My current router is from Asus too so might have to adjust.

    Just get something that has wifi 6 support in my opinion. I think you should not be worried about wifi 6e support (which is different from wifi 6)

    But as far as I know, the routers will still interact over the same 5ghz band used for clients and hence the speed + latency will take a hit.

    I don't think any standalone router comes with tri-band, otherwise I can get two of those and cover the whole area but it will still cost around 20k to get those while Orbi is 20k in itself.

    They won't if you have a wired backhaul. What is the rough square foot area you are looking to cover, and on the same floor?

    Need to buy a wireless mesh wifi system.

    What are my options?

     

    There are:

    1) Orbi RBK352, which is Wifi 6 but dual band.

    2) Orbi RBK50, which is Wifi 5 but tri band.

     

    I am leaning towards RBK50 as it has extra ports too and dedicated 5ghz band. 

    Any other suggestions?

     

    I think 1 router and 1 satellite should be enough, can anyone with experience tell me if these work through walls? There will be atleast 25-30 feet distance and  a wall/door in between the two.

    In my opinion get a good asus router, if you need more coverage then get one more. Just ensure that that model is supported by Asus' AIMesh

     

    I'm using the Asus rt-ax 55 and it is a brilliant router with great range sufficient for ~30 feet easily. Also very easy to set up as well.

    so if your Banta has Qs for your gift, he has to ask you directly ? :scratchchin:

    That made it all the more tough for @KunjanPSD as he can't ask me questions and he just had to work with the inputs I gave about myself. That coupled with the fact that I don't seem to have a ton of recent posts was a deadly combo :P

    I still don't have any clue if my banta has received the gifts or not :nerves:.

    Let me ask him.
