The problem with modern family structure in traditional family, if both are relatively in 30s,the chance of more than 1 kid is nill, if both are relatively in 20s, the problem of <kids is avoided but now the problem is having enough compounding of savings before children college!
The previous generations avoided this by ensuring age gap of 10 to 15 years between the genders during marriage so that an even a poor man has chance at providing good education or business to next generation all be it limited than the wealthy
This is no more possible in modern times, the govt compensates by providing free education and health in developed countries

Well, after spending way too much time this weekend trying to get my MPEG-1 decoder working on the Presario 5528 from a fresh Windows 95 install, I finally was successful. Let's talk briefly about it in a ๐Ÿงต here! Image
Image
So, first some background: what's the story with MPEG-1 decoders? Well, back when PCs weren't quite powerful enough to play full-motion video, hardware options like this were popular. This machine has a S3 Scenic/MX2 (86C443) chip to do just that. Image
For this particular system, this chip pairs with an S3 Trio64V+ (8C765) via the S3 Scenic Highway bus. That said, it's fair to say that MOST S3 Trio64V+ cards did NOT pair with a Scenic/MX2, as this MPEG-1 option chip seemed to be FAIRLY short lived. Image

1).
โ€žThe battlefields of eastern Ukraine have become a proving ground for new technologies of death, and for the countermeasures devised to blunt them.
2).
Electronic warfare saturates the front, jamming signals and forcing drone operators into a contest of adaptation, troops and analysts say.

[...]

Gone are mechanised columns that mounted the armoured assaults in the first year of the full-scale war.โ€

I keep trying to write about what happened at the BAFTAs, and I can't find the words. The situation is almost impossible, but it happened 3 times that night, and one of the three times was directed at myself on the way to dinner after the show.
And a third time at a Black woman. I understand and deeply know why this is an impossible situation. I know we must handle this with grace and continue to push through. But what made the situation worse was the throw away apology of "if you were offended"
at the end of the show. Of course we were offended...but our frequency, our spiritual vibration is tuned to a higher level than what happened. I am not steal, this did not bounce off of me, but I exist above it. It can't take away from who I am as an artist.

You work hard. Save money. Trust a bank.

Meanwhile, IDFC First Bank employees are stealing โ‚น590 crore from government accounts.

Nobody has gone to jail yet.

The stock crashed 18%.
Haryana Govt shut them out overnight.
Retail investors are left holding the bag.

Full breakdown ๐Ÿงต๐Ÿ‘‡Image
First, understand who IDFC First Bank is.

This is NOT a small unknown bank.

โ†’ Founded 2018 (merger of IDFC Bank + Capital First)
โ†’ 943+ branches across India
โ†’ Q3 FY26 net profit โ†’ โ‚น503 crore (up 48% YoY)
โ†’ Deposits growing 24% year on year
โ†’ Rated as one of India's fastest-growing private banks

Everything looked fine from the outside.

Then one routine visit by a government official changed everything. ๐Ÿ’€
February 18, 2026. Chandigarh. Sector 17.

A Haryana Government department official walks into IDFC First Bank.

Simple request โ†’
"Close our account. Transfer our balance to another bank."

Happens every day. Routine paperwork.

Except -

The balance in the BANK'S system didn't match what the GOVERNMENT had on record.

Then another department came in.
Same mismatch.

Then another.
Same mismatch.

The entire branch's government accounts were WRONG. ๐Ÿ˜ณ
