Idli are steamed cakes originating in southern India, which are now popular throughout the country. It is a breakfast food, made by steaming a batter of fermented rice and black lentil beans in special moulds, and usually eaten with Sambar – a lentil-based vegetable stew. Former UN diplomat and Indian lawmaker Shashi Tharoor pounced on British professor Edward Anderson for his ‘unsavoury’ comment on idlis, a popular South Indian breakfast fare. Anderson’s comment that ‘Idli’ is boring stirred up a social media rumble and Tharoor scolded the Brit, saying that he must knows idlis aren’t boring, noting the reactions on Twitter […]
Former UFC title holder Cody Garbrandt has told new Russian champ Petr Yan that he is ready to beat him, reacting to a photo posted by the winner at UFC 251 in which he posed in a swimming pool while calling Garbrandt “no chin”. Garbrandt labeled Yan “too slow” despite his impressive win over Jose Aldo to claim the UFC bantamweight crown with a fifth-round stoppage on Fight Island on Saturday, causing Yan to react by calling him “too dumb, no chin”. Yan then posed in a pool with veteran former victim Urijah Faber, calling the man he beat in three rounds […]

Bitcoin broke above $9,250 for the first time since Friday as the leading cryptocurrency continues to trade in a tight range just above $9,000 for several weeks. But cryptocurrency markets have stayed quiet as traders expect a big move. Bitcoin was trading hands around $9,250 as of 20:00 UTC (4 p.m. ET).

It started with an underwhelming crowd, which only matters because of how he’s hyped and exaggerated expectations for them. To paraphrase the movie Spinal Tap, Trump’s popularity isn’t waning, his appeal is just becoming more selective. But even the crowd who did show up seemed to be more subdued than normal. Sure, they applauded. Sure, they cheered. But it seemed like they were going through the motions. There’s a difference between a crowd that is enthralled and one that is polite. This was a polite crowd (which is something you don’t often say about the MAGA crowd). In fairness, they didn’t […]
On Monday, hundreds of thousands of people across the US reported outages related to mobile operators and Internet services, with the hacktivist group Anonymous claiming that the country was “under a major DDoS attack”.

Matthew Prince, founder of web security giant Cloudflare, which also specialises in DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) protection, tweeted on Tuesday that “there’s a lot of buzz right now about a massive DDoS […]
Last week, President Donald Trump took a break from overseeing the federal response to a deadly pandemic that has killed more than 85,000 people in the United States to date to tweet about the man he likes to call “no talent Stephen Colbert.” On Thursday night, Watch What Happens Live host Andy Cohen asked Colbert if he would want to interview Trump on The Late Show. Colbert reminded him that he actually did have Trump on his show back in September 2015, not long after he launched his presidential bid. “I did once,” he said. “I wouldn’t want to anymore.” He […]
