Yes i understand how when the British colonized India and got those exotic spices and the Indians who immigrated to the UK, opened up lots of restaurants there. But still, in my 1st trip to the UK last year, I saw more Indian dishes than Chinese. Heck, even in a Chinese restaurant, we have the option to add some curry sauce on the side. And for the fish and chip shops, you can even have curry sauce to go with the chips and fish.

Is this a culinary thing, i.e. curries are easier to cook? My friend is Indian and although the curries look easy to make, gathering the correct ingredients is very tricky. Missing one and your dish doesnt turn out well. The UK already had these exotic spices so it is easier to make the dish?

Or is it a regional thing? It is freezing in England and so hot dishes like curries are perfect? Traditional stews are kinda bland so something liquid like curry is better?

So there's this post I saw, and the headline says Meta is now arguing uploading pirated books would be considered fair use.

Is it possible to use someone's use of an argument against them in the future? So for example say in the future, in a different case, Meta argues that someone harmed them in some way by uploading pirated books. Can the other party retort with something akin to "ah but that's not what you said about pirated books three years ago, you only complain if it's unfavorable to you"?

Also I noticed this would be the third post in a row about legal questions. I feel like I'm unintentionally contributing to a pattern/trend here, apologies

Hello fellow TCP users.

I am currently having a lot of unused bandwidth. I wonder do you have any suggestion what to do with that bandwidth ?. Ideally it should more or less only relay the traffic because unfortunately I don't have much idle RAM left (something like a Tor-relay node but least risky).

Thank you very much!

Edit: If you have any not so heavy torrent (<250GiB) that could be helpful please suggest as well.

Edit: Thank you for all the options you've suggested:

  • archiveteam warrior
  • tor relay/snowflae
  • syncthing relay
  • i2p
  • radicle
  • peertube
  • seeding torrents

I will try to explore them. Thank you very much!

UAE tourism destinations and landmarks are keen to point out that they are open for business as usual despite continued Iranian missile strikes amid the US war

Specifically this section:

So I got US Citizenship through my mom when I was under 18...

Does this means if, hypothetically, my mom has "Skeletons in the Closet" that comes to light, I could lose my citizenship?

I've been just non-stop obsessing over the thought of denaturalization... 👀

Can anyone even decode wtf this is supposed to mean? So much legalase I'm confused.

Policy changes introduced and maintained under Abbott's leadership [PM from Sep 2013 to Sep 2015] played a central role in driving that growth. The rate of growth in overseas student numbers from 2013 to 2019 is extraordinary (an increase of over 200,000 in just six years). These understandably fell during COVID and then increased even more rapidly after COVID due to further measures to accelerate the return of students implemented by the Morrison Government. These measures included unrestricted student visa work rights, fee-free applications, and a covid visa, which attracted huge numbers of students to switch to this cheap visa with unrestricted work rights and no requirement to study. The new Albanese Government was slow to tighten these policies.

Since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion, the war in Ukraine has developed into a high-tech conflict.

Swarms of spy and killer drones have set the skies of Ukraine abuzz, and uncrewed boats have crippled the Russian navy in the Black Sea.

There have been reports of UGVs successfully repelling Russian attacks and even taking enemy soldiers prisoner.

Ukrainian and Russian killer robots are even said to have clashed without humans being present at the site of the battle.

One way in which the brigade has been using these robots is by mounting Kalashnikov machine guns on top.

His battalion has also been using explosive-laden, battery-powered kamikaze UGVs to blow up enemy positions and hideouts.
