It's nice and all but none of the benefits are going to Indian people.

The Indian oil corps (state owned or otherwise) resell it to other countries or sell it domestically at a markup over INTERNATIONAL prices. And the Government adds a tax on top, just pure brilliance.

Capitalists demand "fiscal prudence" so instead of raising taxes on the rich, they squeeze more purchasing power out of the poor. Really stupid.

Could be a power issue. 2.5" hard drives do require some power. Some external drives have two USB one for data and other for extra power.

Maybe one of your laptops isn't supplying enough power or the port is dirty causing resistance and voltage drop. Or it could be something else entirely.

Voter turnout was 76%, with 3,499 people voting against the plans, 1,882 in favour.

i mean can't Russia blow up any domestic weapons factories like they've done in the past. US just wants to show that they are still very slava ukraini because it will be bad optics to say they're abandoning their ally.

Earlier, the White House announced that the US has no money for further military aid for Ukraine until the adoption of a new package by the US Congress.

Yea sure there is no money for military aid but somehow there is enough money to build weapons factories which require much more upfront capital and is at the risk of being attacked.

natural prices can only exist in an environment where every consumer and producer has all the information and is completely rational.

if you are rich and a vegetable seller who typically charges $5 for a vegetable charges you $10 you are unlikely to bargain as you would consider it a waste of your time and energy and just buy it. is this person being rational by not wanting to waste their time or irrational because they aren't squeezing more out of the seller.

no. because the prices are influenced by external factors. i live in a country where markets like these exist and the price is not 'natural' in any way, in an idealized world maybe but not in reality.

firstly, transporting any commodity (and inputs such as fertilizers) requires fuel and fuel prices aren't determined by such idealized markets you mentioned, its determined by what cartels and oligopolies want it to be. you are also ignoring subsides, not just by the national governments but foreign governments. for example, developed countries provide a shit ton of subsidies which pull down prices in the international markets, without restrictions and tariffs these displace local production.

there is also the fact that food prices are very inelastic, the seller can push prices very high and the consumer will be forced to accept it because you can't live without food.

i dont really get the middle eastern market you are mentioning because in reality there is absolutely price discrimination going on.

come on lets be honest, Modi doesn't give a shit about colonialism despite his rhetoric and is perfectly willing to sell off his country to British capitalists if it helps his cronies. He has in past equated the medieval India (when India was considered 'prosperous') to the British era) because Muslims.This is just a petty move against the opposition. Also it is to be noted that Sanskrit isn't the only language in India, its one of the most diverse countries on Earth and southern states see this as an 'imposition' of Hindi Northern India.

yea this is why i couldnt care less about apple silicon. atleast with AMD/Intel and most ARM CPUs/SOCs you have the flexibility to do whatever you want. With AS you are limited to whatever shit Apple provides.
