  1. Woah!! Empty stadium for the World cup opener, speaks volumes about the downfall of the ODI format in recent times. So sad to see the last WC finalist starting the World cup campaign in front of empty stands. I am sure it will fill up a bit as the day progress (Thursday being a working day) but would have been good to see a sizeable crowd right from start.

    It's high time ICC puts a lid on this format, taking out 8+ hours a day to just watch it on TV is painful obviously it is much tougher to go watch it in stadium with limited amenities and scorching heat.

    Well, atleast it is not raining.

    At this point I’m not even sure what can be done to phones. Yearly cycle should be stopped, refresh every 2 years. 

    I agree, phones have literally peaked out. The flagship should be launched once in 2 years and some of the features of flagship should trickle down next year to the base phone. This has to be the worst update EVER by Apple, even the presentation is so rehashed now that if you pick last year presentation and this years and switch them somewhere in between you would not be able to make out a difference.

     

    All these talks of carbon neutral and enviornment is all bull sh*t if this is what they will keep doing. Holds good for samsung as well.

    even moonswatch is non-limited but hype(?) has made it unattainable! The delhi store here casually told me, sir har din 5 baje line lagti hai 8 baje sale ki! aap kal aa jaana!

    Sahi hai BC.

     

    This is only in US for now it seems, Brother might be travelling to SFO next week, not sure if he will have time or will be good to get hold on one.

    This NON-LIMITED collection is available for purchase at selected Swatch stores (1 watch per person per store and day) starting September 9, 2023.

    So I am guessing will be in good supply, should get one.

    Not a forex card, but if you don't care about rewards you can look at federal bank's Scapia, it offers 0% forex charges for a LTF card!

    I applied for this card mainly for the Unlimited Domestic lounge access, catch is that you need to spend minimum 5K per cycle for be eligible. I did not read the blue print before applying, now it will come, but guess 5K is no big deal to spend a month.

  6. What is left to explore in Norse Saga?

     

    A seprate thread with Atreus or a sideline story of Freya (I would orefer this), but still I don't think this is needed. Kratos will definitely not be a part of DLC as a playable character. They should just concentrate on getting Kratos ready to kill mummies.

    Got it, thanks guys!

     

    multiple countries actually, plan isn't fully sure yet. 
     

    I can just Lufthansa from Del to multiple cities in Europe for about 22K one way.

    Anyway, is there any method to prioritise what country I should apply to for the visa?

     

    I know its usually country of entry/wherever you are spending most time. Will most likely be spending time with relatives in Switzerland, but I think they see a lot of tourist influx so is applying there a bad idea? @KunjanPSD

     

    I had gone to greece, got appointment after two weeks and Visa was delivered in 3 weeks. If you are planning to go to greece it can be an option.

    Guys, if I wish to travel to Europe around October/November will I get the schengen visa in time?

     

    Does it make a difference if I apply myself, or through some sort of processing agency or travel agent, to get it faster?

     

    and I need to book flights beforehand yes? 

    Apply immediately.

     

    No difference, apply yourself, if you are very confused take premium service, they will vet the documents for you before submission. I did it myself without any additional service, was pretty smooth if you are following the checklist.

     

    Yes
