My friend, not everything is our fault (Indian here). Lets look at the Alexa traffic stats (American company, btw) for the express tribune website:

http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/tribune.com.pk

60% of the site's traffic comes from Pakistan Only 6.9% is from India

Who do you think is voting here? The educated population of Pakistan that is capable of using the Internet, which should at least cause minor concern.

Habib Akram on Kamran Khans show earlier this month on the performance of PTI as GovofKP heading into the polls. He's been going around comparing the situation bw 2013 and now in various constituencies in all of the provinces.

So by killing their daughter, they regain their "honour" in the eyes of their community?

“After killing her daughter, Perveen went out on the street, took off her shawl and started beating herself on her chest, shouting: ‘People! I have killed my daughter for misbehaving and giving our family a bad name.’ https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/jun/08/pakistani-woman-burned-daughter-zeenat-rafiq-alive-marriage

Also reported on thenextweb, the person seems to be from Pakistan. At least that's what his twitter handle says but I highly doubt it. The guy types in what seems to be Arabic or Persian. Also, the location he puts up is "Tando Bago" which is in rural sindh. Un becharon k pas pani peene ko hota nai, Snapchat hack karne nikle hain. smh.

No where, because that's it. Those two sentences make up the entire couplet.

"Ae arz-e-Falastine! Main bhi hazir hon!" is just a title of the section containing poems on Palestine in Habib Jalib's Harf-e haqq (Lahore: Maktabah-e Danyal, 1983).

Yeah that's another factor to consider which makes the calculation all the more difficult. lol.
But i am sure reddit gets a good traffic from Pakistan as-well. As it is 33rd most visited website in Pakistan according to SimilarWeb Top Websites Ranking in Pakistan.

However it'd be rather absurd to make such a detailed, niche post just to scam people lol. If I really wanted to scam people on a mass scale, Id do it with a sexy or political post with wide appeal.

It's show business. His purpose is to sell advertising while presenting something that people will watch. Saying he's Sunni or Shia sort of feels like the "No True Scotsman" fallacy wherein he's saying all this because he is Shia, because no true Sunni would say this.

Whenever something shitty happens in the west, we wish it's not a Muslim doing it, and when headlines like "Muslim man kills wife!" appear in our newspapers we fume and complain "What did it have to do with the fact that he's Muslim? He was deranged and an idiot. He doesn't represent us." In the same way, I complain at a statement saying Amir Liaquat's a Shia after he is seen having a potty mouth.

p.s. not venting at you... just comments I've seen on this.

Same NordVPN desktop version isn't working for weeks however iOS version working without interruption, only Windscribe is working on Desktop but its useless for me because I can't play games on it, I cant even reach Tor Browser official site, seriously wtf??

No free VPN in my knowledge can access Netflix USA. They have blocked them all. I have a paid VPN (PIA) even that is blocked. Apparently paid services of ExpressVPN and NordVPN can useful but then they are expensive.

Torrents are your friend.

I have been using Zenmate since 5 years, Apps available on both iOS and Android, for web you can install it right into your Browser (Google Chrome) Its the fastest, lightest VPN out there and its free. :)

In case anyone wants a link for the android app (as the useless article didnt). And it took me a while to find it, as no Pakistani online news articles actually shared the damned link for some reason.

iOS version will be out soon apparently.

>"...tacky and shows a real lack of imagination, I would normally expect that sort of thing from the tasteless super rich Arabs."

Heh-heh. My immediate, first though was of the Chinese, how they like seem to like that kind of thing, and Disney World & Vegas in the US. Although, they're quite a few of them, apparently, even India's got one.

>I'd appreciate some sources or articles.

I originally came to know about it from an article from the 'New Statesman' by Mr. Pankaj Mishra...

Here's the original article link...

NS Essay - How the British invented Hinduism

[now, you will get 'page not found'... the 'global fanatic ... squad' wiped off even the cached version from the web - yes, they are that organized]

Knowing how these extremists work globally, luckily, I saved the article in pdf form....

Here it is....

NS Essay - How the British invented Hinduism.pdf

TLDR For the people like me ;-)

>Yet Hinduism was a 19th-century British invention. Even the word Hindu itself is of non-Hindu origin. It was first used by the Persians to refer to the people living near the River Indus (Sindhu in Sanskrit). It then became a convenient shorthand for the rulers of India; it defined those who were not Muslims or Christians.

Well Pakistani consider Afghans in same way, at least in Punjab where I live. Pathans (most Afghans are) considered unclean people who don't bathe often and smell bad. Most of Afghan refugees are worker class as well.

I have tested multiple Paid vpn services like Expressvpn, Nordvpn, PIA, Hotspot Shield Premium, vyprvpn personally on PTCL and Telenor. Result is using Openvpn tcp udp and ikev connection is successfully Detected and is blocked in second. On all vpn mentioned above Wireguard protocol works other than expressvpn(which currently does not provide wireguard)
I have created video and uploaded on youtube also

Because it's the only choice. The other choice is complaining about it, but that won't change your fate, you'll only waste time complaining. So the only choice is to accept it and make the best of the hand you've been dealt.

Also, if you have time please read Meditations by Marcus Aurelius. It'll help you with everything you've mentioned.

Python is awesome.

I highly recommend anyone interested in learning programming take this free course. You will learn the basic and have so much fun while on it.

Average is 5-6. Men care more abotu it generally than women. You don't have a small penis, so chill.

1. In general Pakistani women are mostly first timers as well unlike western women who have experienced a variety of sizes and know they can upgrade anytime but a Paki girl isn't like that and there definitely would be something i'd say average she would be expecting, don't get me wrong?

Western women don't upgrade based on penis size. Whatever you think you know about Western women is wrong. They are human being.

1. Was love-making a problem if you also coincidently are 5.6 or is it the perfect fit?

Fine, not an issue.

1. Just don't reply with things like size doesn't matter or it's the skills you have that do, if i have a midget penis please be blunt about it so i could be comfortable in my own-skin.

Read scientific studies on dick length if you like. Your insecurities don't seem to be because of penis size, but because of some psychological issue, low self esteem etc.

Your issue with your hands is telling.

Do you have a sense of humor? A personality? Intelligence? Those things are more relevant.

You want to know how to pleasure a woman in bed? Firstly there is the psychological aspect, which i wont get too into. But if you want to learn about the physiological requirements to pleasure a woman, see how they pleasure themselves.

Dnt know there were tajik in Pakistan let alone a freaking general.

I made a cytube channel for /r/pakistan

https://cytu.be//r/pakistan

Cytube is a place where you can youtube and chill. There is a playlist where people can add videos (not limited to youtube, though some sites are buggy to use) and you can all watch is simultaneously and chat about it. Think of it as having the cinema experience without the cinema ;p

I have put 50Fifty on the playlist for now, come and see!

Axact is very aggressive with legal actions to suppress such kind of publicity.

Hi, wacom intuos user here, check it out on amazon. I do digital art.

This is a beginner friendly tablet, with a pressure sensitive pen.

Should you get one? Depends: Drawing tablets take some time getting used to, but they are definitely a must have assuming you want to become a creative like illustrator, digital artist, architect etc. However for graphic design related jobs like logo design, flyer design etc it is not necessary.

The best way to get good enough with a tablet is practice. There are multiple subreddits like r/ArtFundamentals and r/learntodraw that have tutorials and exercises which is a good place to start. You have not told us your current level and your goal (I guessed you want to be a freelance artist) but I cannot stress how important practice is.

Hope this helps!

• Print out the fingerprint sheet.

• Go to Staples and ask them where the stamp pads are. They have them and they are $4 bucks a pop. You can buy it off Amazon as well.

• Place fingerprints onto the sheet.

• Scan the paper as 600 dpi, JPEG, Letter size.

• Upload the JPEG. If it doesn't work, scan it as a PDF and then convert the PDF to the JPEG using Adobe Acrobat (File > Save As > Image > JPEG). Upload it.

For the past 4 years I've been using NordVPN. I've never had any issues. They're one of the most reputable VPN's on the market and it has it's reasons. User interface is great, changing IP's is easy, and the price is great if you get a long-term deal.

• Make sure the phone is unlocked. If it's locked, you will be able to do everything except use a sim. Meaning no sms, no regular calls and no sim internet. You will be able to use other messaging services like Whatsapp, make calls via Whatsapp, skype, imo etc. and use wifi. Just your sim (and the services it provides) will be unavailable.

• Second, make sure the phone is not a CDMA type since those run without sims so you won't be able to use those.

• Confirm that the phone supports the frequencies of the carrier you are interested in: https://www.gsmarena.com/network-bands.php3. Generally 2100 for 3G and 1800 for 4G.

• Best to get a NEW international version phone. They are GSM, unlocked and generally free from unnecessary programs added by the phone carrier. Also, they are usually rootable if you want to go in that direction. If you are getting a carrier related phone, T-mobile phones are usually rootable while AT&T is sometimes not possible to root.

Manny Pacquiao is also very pious, and similar to idealogy as Inzimam. He'd make an honorary captain.

> some kind of shadowy indian brigade

It's not a shadowy Indian brigade. India has the second largest users of reddit after the US. India is also the largest English speaking country in the world, so sooner or later their opinions were bound to influence the status-quo in the English speaking world.

OP’s take is based on data that shows Pakistan is the second largest source of traffic on the website at ~10% of monthly visitors. Here’s the latest data. Worst case of false equivalency I’ve seen in a long time, it’s not Pakistan as a nation sending money to Israel but rather individual businesses and persons using the platform for freelance work.

I had a male cat called bacha (king in pashto). Was a mean cat but I loved him nonetheless. One day he went out the house and never returned. I suspect someone picked him up.

What happened in karachi as far as the trash heap ballots thats your own mental gymnastics to justify it. The fact is ballots were found in trash with signatures.

You just went to a wiki page to copy the controversy section, some of your sources dont even work. The first source for example is talking about karachi alone a place N league never wins.

Im not gonna go through every single source as you just copy pasted it from wiki but another example is for thumb verification. The govt alllowed for recount but PTI wanted a voter audit which is ridiculous. I remember this news vividly. The ink was washing out and PTI was calling it dhandli because low quality ink was used. Its not the govts fault that happened.

Like I said give it time you will have another controversial section on wiki soon about 2018 elections until then.

So my opposition to the marxism comes from the 70s nationalization campaign. Leading industrialists of Pakistan like Habibullah Khattak, Valika and Ahmed Dawood were arrested after their properties were nationalized. I don't get this. Why should entrenuership be punished?

Here is a presentation on the Nationalization Act of 1970 for reference to what I don't support. Is the proposition of modern marxists different than this? Will entrepreneurship and business be encouraged?

P.s. no need to be sorry. Good arguments are often heated.

I did not integrate it with YouTube app because I had not idea that people use the YT app, but I would if I can see that app has audience/traction. This app is better when compared with the standard VPN apps, as it does not need additional relaying of the video stream.

You could check sites like this to get an idea. I just put in random cities for the US and Pakistan, adjust as appropriate.

It's not perfect simply because you will encounter additional cost in most areas of Pakistan if you want to maintain the same life you have in the US, but it can help with getting an idea.

You have great responsibility on your shoulders now. Educate the youngsters in the truest sense. Nurture and encourage them to have open minds and question things. Make a lasting impression on them so that they always remember you with fondness and talk to their children about their cool teacher Excelsior_i. Make this the the beginning of change that our country so desperately needs in order to survive. Remember to check up Khan Academy to brush up on your concepts. Best of luck my friend.

I will be returning to Pakistan by the end of this year to start my legal practice. Although, I'm already really really late in commencing my career, I'll try my best to see if I can apply in one of their next recruitment rounds. Or at least see if I can provide assistance in some other way.

Are you adamant of gaming laptop because if it's for PC gaming, building a PC is without a doubt better.

PTA/ISP’s blocked or massively slowed down several Amazon AWS servers last night. The ones me and my team were using or impacted by were the AWS Console, Webflow and HEY email service.

AWS cloud is hosting a huge percentage of the internet, including Netflix, Apple iCloud (the last I read), Spotify, Twitter, Webflow and many other services we use daily.

Upon inquiry, I found out (first-hand information) that they were blocking traffic from these services because PUBG Mobile servers also use AWS. What kind of retards did we give keys to the Pakistani internet?

I am getting my VPN registered now because VPN’s are also blocked and I don’t know what other kinds of blunders they’re going to make. And apparently you need static-IP VPN’s and Nord/ExpressVPN/TunnelBear won’t work either.

This VPN registration facility is only available to registered companies, so goodbye freelancers. And you need static IP for it, goodbye work-from-home employees of companies and remote workers for foreign companies.

So much for promoting IT industry in Pakistan. No foreign tech company will invest in this country. SECP already harrases VC funds coming to Pakistani startups. People like me bring foreign currency to Pakistan. Time to consider leaving this country.

try KeySMS app if ure on android, its a set-up and forget kinda thing. it can block texts based on set phrases which is the best as changed numbers dont matter, so adding "Hammer of Thor" or "biggest sale" phrase in ur block list would block all those viagara callis texts which ever number they come from :D

u can also setup a summary alert at a set time to review the blocked texts for any false positive. (and/or choose to block texts only from unknown numbers to reduce chances of a false positive)

and also... backuo, it'll back up ur sms and blocklist/phrases to google drive. need anything else?

(no im not being paid or the dev of that app, i just really liked it alot ok)

Regulation and fixing leaks in Telcos will take months/years. In the mean time a simple solution is to use an app called key messages. It has a fantastic spam filter.

If you're on Android, I recommend trying Google's Datally to keep apps from using background data, and also to track usage.

Maybe somehing like this? Or this.. I'm not sure if amazon is available in Pakistan but I'm sure any glasses with a similar concept will help you greatly.

I have a subscription to VyprVPN and it seems to be able to connect through Switzerland but not through the US servers, not getting very good connection, but this may just be other factors and not throttling of traffic. The livestreams on both Geo tv and Express tv are blocked by the website owners right now so no TV.

There is a reason why I invest in a VPN when I travel to Middle East and South Asia. I use express VPN which is pricey at $12 a month, but Private Internet Access is $35 for a whole year, alot cheaper, worked great in the states, never tested it in pakistan.

Yes also YouTube kids is now available in Pakistan;

iOS:
YouTube Kids by Google, Inc. https://appsto.re/pk/U1q23.i

Android:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.youtube.kids

You can do it mate. I browse /r/android and see many apps there that help users quit smoking. Maybe you should try one of them.

Did a google search and found this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.EAGINsoftware.dejaloYa&hl=en

Looking at screenshot I see that app has nice community too.

There is, indeed. (1) Download Engelsiz (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.arcsoft.engelsiz) (2) Click on Manual Settings (3) First click on 8.8.8.8 then click on 8.8.4.4

If this doesn't work then download Override DNS. Make sure your device is rooted in order for this to work. (http://apkhome.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/Override-DNS-v5.0.2-0-ga601c25.apk) Choose Google from the drop down menu.

You're all set and ready to go! :)

From here. Spotify is officially in Pakistan.

Understanding the what and how of programming languages is hard. It may not be very intuitive for everyone. Your colleagues and teacher maybe taking things for granted, because of their familiarity with programming languages.

Python is easy for people who either already know or have started to understand what a program is, how it is executed, the basic structures of programs and so on.

I would suggest that you take an introductory course on programming first. With time and practice you will learn many tricks and languages.

Python for non programmers

Intro to Python

Other than that, you can ask a specific question if you have any.

seems to be partly on this .. too bad abt the rating that the book got...

Would anybody write a replacement for that book, then?

Please read 'Pakistan a hard country ' by professor Anatol.

Really liked it a lot and honestly overs the past years including the very recent political developments etc, many things that I didn't agree with years ago from his book, turn out to be solid assessments.

I think it is about 11 years old, this book.

It hardly takes any effort and will go a long way. Impact of fake news are outlined below

Interesting. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

>Of course some publications give only one side of the story but generally most newspapers just give you the news in a neutral fashion, reporting everything.

I will believe you here because I don't live in India. However, the exposure that I've had online and Indian news website, I have consistently seen biased reporting and even outright lies. Even I don't like our media, but I must say it's a lot more responsible than Indian media at least in terms of international news. Besides, Indian media was recently ranked #1 in terms of fake news. Then there is also news like this that prove the anti-pak propaganda.

>Political parties need votes dont they?

True. But that's what I was saying. When you build a significant chunk of your political campaign and tenure around Pakistan, it becomes an obsession for the common man as well. In Pakistan, you will never see a campaign that is primarily focused on India. For example, the recent campaign by Imran Khan was focused on minimizing corruption and accountability across the board. He won.

>India was born a secular country and will remain a secular country no matter what happens.

I sincerely hope it happens -- for your sake and for everyone else's sake as well. Such a great nation with such a great history should not succumb to extremists.

>But if there had not been a partition our people would have been much better off without all these wars that hinder our progress.

I respect your opinion, but I don't think this is necessarily true. We could have made the same progress by living in harmony and in peace, just like EU countries have. We don't necessarily need to be one country to excel. What we do need is open borders, free trade, mutual trust, and a will to resolve all our matters diplomatically.

Yes sensei. He sent this, it's $89 + 6600 PKR shipping (rupee worse now) https://www.amazon.com/RealFireNSteel-Sakata-Gintokis-Bokuto-Shirasaya/dp/B07M5MC71Y

now we have the answer to your questions.

> On bad days:

• Tor is blocked (since day 1).
• Wireguard/OpenVpn is blocked (since day 1)
• V2ray/vmess/shadowsocks/... are either permanently blocked or blocked as soon as the IP Address of the EXIT node becomes known.
• The DPI blocks on TLS's cleartext SNI.
• Any outbound traffic is blocked after 1k-4k is transferred upstream.
• Any website that offers VPN solutions is blocked (ProtonVPN, Mullvad, NordVPN, ..). Those who already had the software before the GFI can not use the software (most apps require to register an account or make an API call to a WebRTC - which is blocked).
• Cloudflare is blocked (including DoH/DoT).
• Docker is sometimes blocked.
• Google Play and App Store are blocked.
• Some operators use a whitelist and block all other websites.

> China is involved. Connecting to any random port from the outside world on any server inside of Iran (passing the GFI) is almost always followed by a port probe on that specific port from an IP address belonging to China.

so i repeat what i asked in comments

> you think tunneling over some tcp p2p tunnel will work? think again

> the mere presence of type of packets is enough for dpi systems to figure out what is going on.

really, you are operating under assumption that PTA are retarded. they don't have to be, they simply pay western companies for tech, and the tech works.

Ich habe dieses Buch für einen deutschen Freund, der Urdu lernt, gekauft und er fand es toll..

So I have a different perspective but I can tell you what I did and what helped me.

First you need to create a habit of it, the body predicts your routine and adjusts to it. So you will take weeks to set it to expect to sleep early or on time.

Second, avoid blue light from 4 hours before you want to go to sleep. Most smartphones have filters. Laptops/PCs can use something like flux to automatically switch to yellow light.

Third, at least 1 hour before you want to go to sleep. Avoid all screens. Just like, put your phone away. My best way to fall asleep was getting myself back to reading. I used to read for hours but that faded years ago so I started reading before bed again. Frankly, the first few days were so boring that I fell asleep in frustration and boredom.

Fourth, you might have to do something drastic the first day(s). When I had my routine all messed up I had to stay awake for like 35+ hours so I could literally fall asleep at an early time.

​

All that said. Sleeping late isn't the worst. I found out quickly that I am more productive in the night than I am during day. Through years of studying late night and trying to meet project deadlines, I just work harder during the night and at some point I just gave up trying to set the ideal morning routine for successful people (and similar blog titles). Works fine for me. I still function well, give almost the same amount of time to people as I normally would and I sleep okay as well.

Sharing my reading list. Here are some books on: 1. Geopolitics 2. Productivity

There are plenty of mobile apps that can help you keep track. It might be difficult and some work at first but it will soon become a habit. I use this one. I had the same problem but keeping accurate record helps.

I got NordVPN via applestore for $49 for a year subscription while I was visiting Lahore. Worked well. There are some options (I did not explore) but you can configure your router to use VPN. All devices connected with that router will be on VPN that way.

I'm assuming your smart tv has AndroidTV. In that case, you can download VPN of your choice from the PlayStore and set it up. You need a paid VPN for a good and reliably consistent experience. Personally, NordVPN is my #1 choice, but I've used Express and Windscribe and they work good too. 👍
