Possible to rent a TV in Isb/Pindi?

Visiting Pakistan for a couple of months. Don't have a TV here and don't want to buy one that I will only use for 2 months - so was wondering if there is any shop or retailer who rents them on a monthly basis?

I've bought cheap TVs before from androon Pindi but that was a while ago and I don't know where to start asking. Any help appreciated.

Health concerns raspy cough, flu and fever wave in isb

I don't know if it's happening due to underlying smog issue that now Islamabad is facing.

But lately I have fallen sick twice (in the span of 1 month)

But something lately is wrong in Islamabad. I almost stayed in lahore last year amidst the thick-ass smog for months but I had survived without any issues, but this year in Islamabad. Not only me but my whole family is suffering through this. Even though we really kept the immunity side of things up by eating whatever healthy we can afford, herbs or OTC vitamins.

Has this happened to anyone else. Everyone is saying, "oh yeah this is the season" .. season of what? Never saw Islamabad like this except covid days.

Something is really off and I cannot put my finger on it.

Any thoughts?

Film development in Islamabad or Rawalpindi?

Honestly, it's just like the title says. Is there any place in Islamabad or Rawalpindi that still develops film or would be just better to get my own development kit from Ali Express and try to somehow manage to get the chemicals as well.

Islamabad Police Did it again

A few days back, I made a post related to Islamabad Police bothering people sitting in public places without reasons. It happened again today. I got married recently but we live separately for now. Today, I decided to take my wife to F-9 for a walk after brunch around 2pm. We walked upto a bench and sat there to have some rest. Some families were sitting there too around us. We were just talking, laughing and sharing good fun moments together by making jokes right between the whole public, just like normal people. So, of course, a policeman couldn't bear the two people who are just sitting there, enjoying good moments like a normal, decent couple. He came to us and started telling me the same bullshit again. "Do you know it's a public place? CDA complained about you guys. There are families sitting around. Why are you two doing this in public?" And bla bla bla.

So, I got triggered and asked him, what exactly are we doing? Can you tell me? I didn't even touch my wife anywhere and we're just sitting there like others. What wrong did we do in public that you are bothering us? He was like, just don't do what you're doing and you'll be good. I repeated myself, what exactly? He then got confused and left to find some other couple to fill his pocket with bribe money.

Of course he came to us to pressurize us and wanted bribe money so he let us go. But, this time, I confidently showed good and straightforward behavior and he got confused.

But, he got successful to ruin our mood on the weekend and we came back home.

Is Artificial Intelligence at FAST Islamabad a Good Choice?

Hi everyone!

I'm a first-year college student, and I'm considering pursuing a bachelor's in Artificial Intelligence at FAST University Islamabad. I've heard a lot about the university, but I wanted to get some advice from those who are currently studying there or have graduated.

  1. How is the AI program at FAST in terms of curriculum, faculty, and research opportunities?

  2. Do you think FAST Islamabad is a good choice for AI, or would you recommend another field of study?

  3. If you've studied AI at FAST, how are the industry connections post-graduation?

  4. Would it be better to pursue AI from another university in Pakistan?

Your insights would be really helpful in making my decision! Thanks in advance.

Possible pedophilia Case in Islamabad F8/3

I rarely use Facebook these days but when i open it i often come across this group named "Islamabad Trail Explorers 3&5 " Even though I am not a member of the group. the group's posts frequently appear in my feed. The person running the group has the name Sana Azhar on their profile. They regularly post pictures of a young girl, who appears to be around 12 or 14 years old, along with the text Sana Azhar, F8/3 Islamabad. The weird part is he writes this text on all of her photos and videos which is why i suspected there might be something wrong here. People leave strange comments on these posts, seemingly believing this to be the real ID of the child.

I don’t know what’s going on, but this seems incredibly concerning on many levels. This might involve child exploitation or, worse, indicate that the person behind these posts is a predator. God knows what their intentions are.

Can anyone from F8/3 confirm if they have seen this child? If so, please consider alerting the authorities in the area. I’ve been meaning to raise this concern for a while, but every time I open Facebook, I come across more posts from this person, which makes the situation even more unsettling.

Printing/Publishing help needed in twin cities

So I have a newsletter in PDF form and I want to get an estimate of how much it will cost to produce 100/200 copies of it. The PDF page size is 34.44 × 48.72 in (portrait) and there are 9 PDF pages.

I don't know what the exact dimensions/size of a newspaper page is and I'm not finding anything concrete online so for starters I don't know how many newspaper pages will be required per each copy of it. Secondly I don't know if there are certain types of quality of a newspaper page, I also don't know what type of printing they use for this or how much it differs if you opt for color printing or black&white printing. So if anyone has any information regarding this and could help me figure out an estimated cost, I'd be really helpful.

How to socialize in Islamabad in your neighborhood

I have recently moved in to Islamabad from peshawar and what I have felt is that here people are very secluded, it's been 2 months and I don't know my adjecnt neighbor let alone be someone else. I'm not a fulltime extrovert but I do need a few friends here and there, I'm curious as to what and how I can do it as Peshawar was very spontaneous, people are warm and welcoming so much that you don't hesitate to socialize. I could find people playing sport but since I have an injury from football I can't play well anymore so that's out of the question. Apart from that I like reading, computers, tech, video games, long walks, movies and a dark sense of humour would do wonders.

conditions of isb ? Family now stops me from supporting pti! Should i continue being friends with a affiliated person?

p.S sorry for a long post and please sorry for any grammer mistakers.

I am confused, after the unfortunate situation of Islamabad, my heart has gotten rotten against government, agencies, any affiliated entity. I have even stopped watching news after the scenario.

I have a friend, a good friend he is a wadera but parha likha good ikhlaq type wala friend who always comes through in any situation, he has a bunch of old style suvs with new suvs. He has more than 10 jeeps all are fully tinted front back and have army stickers not fake, real ones with the metal material and stamped serial numbers.

Recently in this protest,i told him that i am going he stopped me with all his will and words but i didnt listen.

On the night of the unfortunate accident just before they turned off the lights, many were sleeping others were eating and distributing water bottles and snacks, a bunch of us went to markaz to eat something but everything was closed, kaflas from Peshawar were still reaching.

Markaz were completely closed so went to a friends house, as soon as wifi connected saw his messages on whatsapp asking about situation,as i replied he called me and said where are you, i told him he just said to trust him once he even gave kasams of my parents to just go back home and all and few minutes after that the slaughter started, it was warzone, some were running away, some were escaping via streets and we just kickstarted our bikes and ran via inner galis towards our respective homes.

Met him the next day, asked him how he knew he just ignored and asked me to turn off signals everything said wifi use kro wo b less and yesterday came to know specific files had been made of different people who were in protest and given to respective thanas to arrest them hence he knew everything beforehand

I have argued with him many times emphasising that this is wrong, injustice. He is a good friend who has helped me in many situations but my friends circle are pushing me to end this friendship with him saying he is an affiliated person but my parents are stopping me, and after this scenario my parents whole family is now less supportive of pti or rights, they now avoid or either remain silent on such topics

So should i cut off every connection with him because of he is on the wrong side but as a person he is kind hearted and loyal ?

Lost my grey parrot in rwp

It was due to my younger brother's forgetfulness to lock the cage after giving rice. Any one has any positive stories about missing pets being found again ,really depressed rn.

I know some people sell off or keep lost pets but I need hope that some good people out there actually care and have empathy to return if found.

We are trying to find it ,but no luck so far. Really scared cuz of the weather and predators outside. Domestic pets have zero survival skills .
