My wife lives with a severely debilitating disease (GNE Myopathy) and we imported a AFO (Ankle Foot Orthosis) which helps her walk a bit from Europe; UPS India didn't bother to mention the item properly to the customs and is now demanding > 50% import duty and the person on the phone was extremely rude.

Came across someone who had interviewed GenZ students from one of the country's top university for an internship work & none of them have read any comics!

Guess we millennials were lucky to have printed newspapers with Calvin & Hobbes, Garfield, Peanuts, Pearls Before Swine...

Happy to talk about: #radio #podcast #audio #storytelling

Likely to post random #musings about whatever's trending - usually #India, #MastIndia, #news, #SocialContract, #podcasts, etc.

I #puns, #shitposts, #memes, and jumping into conversations uninvited.

#introduction post for the third time on a new server, first time on my own:-

Hello, I'm Luv, here's some things to know about me:-

- I'm a coder disillusioned with tech
- I'm a gamer disillusioned with the industry
- I'm a film bro who watches one film a month
- I'm the father of a cat named Kush (that's the important bit)

#MastIndia also I guess

Also, I'm massively into TTRPGs and RPGs in general, might post a bunch about video games, gimme a follow if you're into that stuff.

#introduction #mastindia

Hi there! I’m Sathya, currently based in Sydney but originally from Mangalore

I’ve been working for about 15 years now, started off with insurance tech, databases, got bored and now currently into Cloud/DevOps/SRE. I’m an #AWS Container Hero and the author of Practical Docker with Python and a co-author of The CDK Book. In my spare time, I like to travel, take pictures (follow my pixelfed account => @sathyabhat@pxl.mx ), and play video games.

Hello #Mastindia

Here for (and tooting on) all things books, animals, art, poetry, pop culture, and theory -- the finer things of life.

Looking forward to toots over tweets!

So #introduction

Hi everyone, I'm Nemo. I used to do tech/infra/#opensource things at Razorpay.

I'm running this instance (tatooine.club) for friends & family, so if you want a Fediverse account on a server you can trust, reach out for an invite.

Beyond work, I slackline on sundays, and write a bunch of OSS libraries (https://captnemo.in/projects). I like making and breaking things, especially in innovative new ways.

Hi #MastIndia the server I was on is down and idk if it will be up again. Meanwhile, I'm here so let's do a small #Introduction

I am a labour & employment lawyer. I work specifically in workplace sexual harassment, diversity & inclusion, and equal employment opportunity.

I enjoy reading, writing on socio-political legal issues, baking banana bread, and watching 90s coming-of-age chick flicks & John Pilger's documentaries.

I'm a technologist, interdisciplinary researcher, Wikimedian and polyglot based in Mysore. Most of my social media presence is me perpetrating my humour of questionable quality.

Bird site was my favourite social media platform until it wasn't. I've been on Mastodon for five years although this account is three years old. If you have newly migrated here from the Bird site, welcome and cheers! #MastIndia

Hi #MastIndia ... This hashtag is really "punny" (Only consider Hindi and English, don't add Tamil, ok?) ((#Linguistics group will get a headache))

For #introductions, or rather re-introduction, I'm a polyglot, trying to seek cognitive dissonance, go deeper into understanding the problem when somebody asks me to just implement the bleddy solution. Because, why make so many more suffer at a later date when there's enough suffering already, right?

#Montessori #wildlife #conservation #FOSS enthu.

An introduction again makes sense with the new wave of folks joining.

I'm an Indian living in Germany. Software Engineer. I talk about pretty much anything I see from tech to food to vegan TIL's. Sometimes even data privacy and politics #introduction #introductions #neuhier #MastIndia
