Thanks for the reply. Do you think the product I linked (Samsung 860 Evo 250GB SATA III) is compatible? Also, how easy is migration? I think I'd like to just move over the partition containing OS. How does it work, do I first need to replace optical drive with SSD, then switch places, because...

I have a Dell L502X from 2011. I use it mostly for work related stuff now (programming). Lately 2 projects with jit compilation running in them, and a browser with a bunch of tabs has been enough to cause delayed responses to simple activities such as switching windows. The config is i7...

I asked them to terminate connection today, and just now one of them visited me asking for payment of following month claiming that the connection is post-paid, and all that I paid for when getting connection (Rs. 1800+ = installation charges, advance bill payment, extra cable) was just the...

After talking with a Reliance official, it has come to light that they can keep providing pathetic services, even as much as providing 5 minutes of services every 72 hours, and then they have no need of providing waiver. Last month my connection stayed down for 17+ days with sporadic access...

I can see features like extraction of audio in youtube-dl. To make it more elaborate, we can add features to encode audio to desired format, convert video with x264/x265, and try to get lyrics with websites like musixmatch to make them embeddable as subtitles.

I'm not good with ideas for projects. I generally pick a technology, and then decide what could be made with it, and draw inspiration from existing software. One project (VB.NET) was inspired by Notepad++ in which I used RegEx for syntax matching, and tried implementing auto-completion but...

I'm looking for people interested in partnering with me for a project. My main aim is to add a project to my resume. Secondary aims include: Learn some teamwork (all my previous projects have been 1 man projects). Learn use of github, sourceforge and the like for versioning, collaboration...

BJP could've done a lot more like giving answers to questions like why aren't they making steep cuts in petroleum prices - they need revenue as they aim to have 90-days supply in strategic oil reserves - this would've given people better insight on the development that's taking place. Instead...

You're overlooking the fact that around 13,72,718 more people voted this time. Edit: Calculated using wrong data. Valid votes last time: 78,23,820. This time: Can't find any official report.

Yug probably used to be among my favorites, I have only faint memories of it, and the only character I can remember from it is Inspector Hamilton.

There are numerous reasons for BJP's defeat in Delhi. Being a BJP supporter, the things which hurt me most were numerous attacks on Kejriwal in newspaper ads, instead of displaying their own achievements, and alleged use of indecent language (बाज़ारू - didn't find any proof) by Modi. A lot went...

Bought on advice of @whitestar_999. I also thought about getting Seasonic S12II Bronze 430W, but later realized that I'm not going to add a good GPU to this computer, and will probably build another PC some time later, so this should suffice.

You should try 'Devon Ke Dev...Mahadev'. They've done a really good job.

It really was a waste of effort. I was initially told that there were 7 openings in total, 5 for consultant trainees, and 2 for development trainees. Today I talked to the person whose friend referred me, and I was told that they hired only one person, that too for consultant position.

My cousin has ages old Sony laptop, and I've been able to achieve transfer rate of ~55MB/s with him over LAN. Another cousin got a vaio, and the same setup got us ~9MB/s. Edit: Does this mean my laptop has Gigabit Ethernet capability?
