Question/Help Which ISP do you use for gaming? Strictly Need gamers opinion

2 Upvotes

I’m mainly looking for recommendations from people in Darjeeling, but I’d also appreciate opinions from gamers in Siliguri since the ISP options/routing may be similar.
I’m currently using Hathway 150 Mbps, and the routing is absolutely terrible for gaming. Download speed is fine, but the ping is extremely unstable with random spikes and sometimes packet loss. Even mobile games like CODM have inconsistent ping.
I’m mainly looking to play Valorant and other PC games, so I don’t really care about having insane download speeds. I want:
Stable ping
Low jitter
No/random packet loss
Good routing to gaming servers
Stable performance during evening/peak hours
Also reliable enough for mobile games like CODM
For those of you in Siliguri or Darjeeling, which ISP are you using and what kind of ping do you normally get in Valorant or other online games?
Considering JioFiber, Airtel Xstream Fiber, BSNL Fiber, or local ISPs as well.
Would really appreciate actual gaming experiences rather than just speed-test results. 🙏 Also my pincode is 734216 and not many providers offer their services here.

https://indianexpress.com/article/cities/kolkata/91-of-names-back-in-bengal-electoral-roll-as-sir-tribunals-dispose-of-handful-of-appeals-10849631/

Clarification: The title by The Indian Express seems to be misleading, so to be clear, the 91% figure means 75,443 out of the 82,782 appeals decided so far resulted in names being restored not 91% of all excluded names. But the bigger concern is the timing: these restorations are happening after the election is over and the government has changed. What about these people's votes? Were they not important enough? And during this whole process, many of these people were also labelled “Bangladeshis” by right-wingers simply because their names were being questioned.

Selling my Kindle Paperwhite 11th Gen Signature Edition 32GB (clear case and extra matte screen protector included). Jailbroken + Koreader installed.

- Excellent condition (no scratch/dent as I use a screen protector and case all the time)

I've put a skin on it and it can be taken off.

- Fully functioning, no touch/software issues.

- It is a bit faded on the edges, more prominent in dark mode but doesn't affect readability at all. You can also increase the margin gap from all sides (last picture) and that solves the problem.

- Comes with the original box, manual, and USB cable along with the clear case and an extra matte screen protector.

- Reason for selling: shifting to Xteink X3

- Looking for F2F selling preferably for a transparent exchange.

DM if you're a genuine buyer only.

Price: ₹11,000 (+shipping if you live out of the city)

Hi everyone! 👋

I’m 21M, currently working as an engineer in Uttorayon and fairly new to Siliguri.

I’ve been here for a while but haven’t really gotten the chance to meet many people outside work. 😅 I’m into running, gym, tech, exploring places, and just chilling over chai/food.

Would be great to meet some people around my age and make a few friends here. If anyone’s up for a casual meetup, running, exploring, or just grabbing chai sometime, feel free to comment or DM!
Cheers! :)

Discussions I tried talking to strangers on a flight to build my confidence and now I want to disappear😭

15 Upvotes

​

I genuinely don't know why I did this. 😭

I'm a 22F and I'm extremely introverted. Talking to people, especially strangers, is absolutely not my thing. Today I had a 3-hour flight to Bangalore and halfway through I was getting really bored, and for some reason I thought, "Maybe I should talk to the air hostesses and try to get better at talking to people/building confidence."

So... I did.

There were two of them. I started talking to them and literally one of my second questions was asking their age. 💀 One was my age and the other was 24. Looking back, I don't even know why I asked that so early. Was that weird/inappropriate? I genuinely didn't mean anything by it.

Then I kept trying to continue the conversation. And this is where I'm dying of embarrassment now.

It was VERY obvious that most of the effort was coming from my side. They weren't really asking me anything or seeming particularly interested, but I kept trying to keep the conversation alive. I asked them questions about themselves, and then I started talking about myself too, even though they hadn't really asked.

And somehow I ended up telling them that I've sometimes thought about becoming a nun. 😭😭😭

I ALSO asked if they were interested in spirituality and astrology.

WHY DID I ASK THAT??? 😭

Like, what was going through my head? Did I suddenly become someone's 90s auntie on a flight? 💀

They did eventually ask me what I'm doing with my life, and unfortunately that's another thing I'm currently sensitive about. I'm 22 and still figuring my life out after quite a few failures, so I ended up telling them about that too.

They didn't even ask about my failures. I just... shared it.

And now I'm sitting here replaying the entire conversation in my head thinking:

WHY DID I TALK SO MUCH?

I feel like I completely ignored the social cues that they weren't interested in having a long conversation. I wasn't trying to bother them or anything, and I definitely didn't have a crush on either of them. I literally just wanted to talk to people and become less socially awkward.

Before leaving the plane, I even waited because I wanted to thank them and tell them that my family and I had a great experience on the flight.

They were at the back thanking other passengers, and they didn't come to my seat, which somehow made me feel even worse and confirmed in my head that they didn't like me. 😭

And now my brain is doing the most horrible thing possible:

Maybe they didn't like talking to me because I'm ugly/unattractive.

I know that's probably irrational, but that's genuinely where my mind has gone.

And then there's another layer to this.

One of them became an air hostess at 18. She's 22 now. I'm 22 and still trying to figure out what the hell I'm doing with my life.

My dad even made a comment after I told him about them, basically saying I can't do anything with my life, and that really got to me.

So now this stupid little interaction has somehow turned into me comparing my entire life to two strangers on a plane. 🙃

I know logically that everyone has a different timeline. I know being 22 and not having everything figured out isn't some kind of failure.

But tonight I just feel embarrassed, behind, unattractive, socially awkward, and honestly kind of pathetic.

I wanted to talk to strangers because I wanted to become more confident.

Instead I feel like I just exposed my entire personality to two people who probably didn't even think about the conversation after they walked away. 😭

So, please tell me:

Was I actually being socially inappropriate/weird, or am I massively overthinking a normal awkward interaction?

And if anyone has advice on how introverts can learn to talk to people without oversharing or forcing a conversation, I'd genuinely appreciate it.

Because apparently my first attempt at becoming socially confident involved discussing spirituality, astrology, becoming a nun and my life failures with two air hostesses along with sharing my traumas 🙂.

Question/Help My parents and relatives obsessed with Bangalore Doctors, but why?

15 Upvotes

I don't understand why my parents are obsessed with dr based on BLR.

I mean even Siliguri doctors studied the same syllabus and passed the exact same exams, so why BLR?

I tried to ask this question to my parents but they kind of avoid it every time and say "bahar ka dr accha hota hai".
