  • Cuz errybody loves helping people too lazy to help themselves.

    In case the whole internet is down like the Indian version of Google apparently is:

    1. Citarum River – Indonesia
    Length: 300 km
    • Main Pollutants: Mercury, cadmium, lead, textile dyes
    • Source: Over 2,000 unregulated textile factories in West Java
    • Affected Areas: Bandung, Bekasi, Karawang
    • Impact: High mercury levels detected in schoolchildren; rice paddies yield stunted, contaminated crops
    • Historical Note: Once a sacred agricultural artery in Sundanese culture
    • Notable Fact: Over 20 million people rely on this river for water—most boil or import bottled alternatives
    Update 2025: The Citarum Harum initiative removed 3,200 tons of surface waste last year, but illegal discharges remain unchecked due to limited enforcement.
    
    1. Ganges River – India
    Length: 2,525 km
    • Main Pollutants: Raw sewage, plastic debris, chemical effluents
    • Source: Urban and rural runoff from 500+ million residents
    • Affected Areas: Varanasi, Patna, Kanpur, Kolkata
    • Impact: Cholera and hepatitis outbreaks are endemic; religious rituals continue in waters deemed “unsafe for bathing” by the CPCB
    • Historical Note: Central to Hinduism, life, death, and pilgrimage
    • Notable Fact: Cremation ashes and industrial dye waste co-mingle in sacred bathing ghats
    Update 2025: Namami Gange Phase II launched with AI-monitored sewage control in 50 cities—but only 9 plants are fully operational.
    
    1. Yamuna River – India
    Length: 1,376 km
    • Main Pollutants: Surfactants, heavy metals, nitrogen-rich waste
    • Source: Urban sprawl and underperforming sewage plants in Delhi
    • Affected Areas: Delhi, Agra, Mathura
    • Impact: Toxic foam disrupts Chhath Puja and immersions; Delhi’s drinking water depends on heavily chlorinated Yamuna intakes
    • Historical Note: Sacred in Hindu mythology, linked to Lord Krishna
    • Notable Fact: Experts estimate over 90% of Yamuna’s pollution is from untreated domestic sewage
    Update 2025: The Delhi Jal Board announced ₹1,200 crore in foam-control measures, but riverbank encroachment complicates clean-up.
    

    Methodology: How We Ranked the Most Polluted Rivers in 2025

    This list was compiled using reports from:

    -UNEP, WWF, World Bank
    
    -National environmental protection agencies
    
    -Peer-reviewed studies from journals like Environmental Pollution and Water Research 
    

    Key Factors Considered:

    -Levels of chemical & biological pollutants 35%

    -Impact on local communities and health 25%

    -Plastic waste density (kg/km²) 15%

    -Loss of biodiversity 15%

    -Clean-up efforts and reversibility 10%















  • Jesus christ. No they dont. There’s more than enough dolts like you being employed in an unskilled trade industry for shit wages that has minimal overhead as it is so stealing your wage via tips would mean the restaurant is not going to be in business for long. Its not your employer’s job to babysit your paycheck. If you arent reporting discrepancies, thats on you. Noone is guna keep working at a place that isnt paying employees what their owed. Especially not in an industry where the wage floor is so low and the employment is so heavily driven by word of mouth.




  • Not op but here for info of similar situation I’ve thought about doing. So

    • how many houses

    Between 3-5

    • how far are they apart (latency)

    Different towns for 1-3 houses and same road for 3 houses, including mine where NAS would be. So im assuming this is some cloud sharing thing but im looking to host it and not use Google photos anymore.

    • what is their internet connection like?

    Everyone has high speed i think. 1gb/s I think.

    • up/downstream?

    Always pee downstream. Idk what this is asking. Sorry

    • Static IP? Is it stable?

    Yes to both but would like it to be accessible on mobile devices too.

    • how are they supposed to access the data?

    Just looking for info on what to learn so whatever you recommend lol

    • what kind of data is it, and what is the access pattern? Meaning, is it text files? Occasional pictures? Movies?

    Prolly 90% pictures & 10% video

    • how much data do you need in total (yours+others)

    Shit idk enough to cover 3 families with multiple crotch fruit under 3 years old so 50,000TB+ range.
