No idea really, I'm not Indian.

Is that new? My play store country is set to India (so I can buy stuff dirt cheap) and that feature has been there as long as I remember.

Source? Never heard of that. German sources are fine as well.

Yep, from highschool onwards the education system is fully in English. It's pretty much an exact copy of the British system from that point on, thanks to the colonial past.

Finland has tuition free PhD programs for nationals of any country, Germany and Netherlands offer paid research positions where you basically are a full time student and still a part time lecturer - working hours can be tough though, since you need to balance the two. If you have some modest savings, Malaysia has some excellent universities and very cheap tuition (I'm doing my phd here and pay about 10k USD for a 3 year program) and cost of living is very low.

My wife is Chinese and we put copious amounts on almost all dishes, plain and raw. Never got any stomach problems - have you tried again to check if that was really the issue? Might have been another ingredient after all.

If I don't want something, I give nothing. Most fundraisers are pure extortion, and I can't be bothered to check if something is legit or lining someone's pocket. "No" is a full sentence.

That's how you get turned away at the border. Happened already.

Only since 0.19.1, many instances haven't updated yet.

Well, now you know why sensible admins defederate from this trash. I'd suggest using an app that allows you to block instances from your side and ignore them.
