I'd say that's in the dialect of Nonsense called 'Pidgin.

WTF?
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.

Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

It's the language of Mordor, that which I shall not utter here.
That particular piece of text you have seems to be part of an ancient ritual to summon the depth lord Cthulhu.
Beware, you know not of the dark forces that are at work here... (probably QA).

It is in Hindi and it is written as a parody to a Hindi Song from movie "Chak De India"...

Wow ! That's like such a relief to know ! I feel the nights of cold-sweats, tremors, and deleria, gliding away from me like the clouds from a clearing-off storm because even though that smart Susan Schneider ... who's a professor of philosophy ... said:
"I’m not saying that we’re going to be running into IBM processors in outer space. In all likelihood, this intelligence will be way more sophisticated than anything humans can understand," ... which jangled my synapses like all over my neocortex and sent tidal waves of adrenalin right smack into my limbic system ... well, then that same Susan soothed me a bit by saying:
"If they were interested in us, we probably wouldn’t be here," said Schneider. "My gut feeling is their goals and incentives are so different from ours, they’re not going to want to contact us." And, then, that real intelligent Seth Shostak, who's a Director of Seti, and possibly a High Priest of Amon Ra, and a paid-up member of the Secret Illuminati, said right back:
"I’d have to agree with Susan on them not being interested in us at all," Shostak said. We're just too simplistic, too irrelevant. "You don’t spend a whole lot of time hanging out reading books with your goldfish. On the other hand, you don’t really want to kill the goldfish, either." So, I don't know about you, but I'm going to try and fall asleep repeating: "I am a goldfish," and maybe, just maybe, I won't wake the neighbors up screaming as usual.
Now, if you go ahead and read the whole story on this here 'Motherboard web-site, don't blame me for whatever effect it might have on you ! And, don't say you weren't warned: [^].
By the way, I'd like to wish you and yours (biological, or non-biological) a happy Holiday Season, sacred and/or profane as you autonomously choose based on your personal values, traditions, and culture. Not being in America, I can't really experience the efflorescence-of-shopping that so epitomizes the culture I was born bored in.

Inter stellar space travel might just not be feasible either, that's another possibility...

I think the only reasonable assumption is that we and any "nearby" civilizations are all about average and the likelyhood of meeting a significantly superior civilization any time soon is very small.
And then, they will obviously be out looking either to party or to gather slaves for their mines.

The issue of the relationship between time and the rate of evolutionary transformation is a fascinating subject area.
Some scientists believe that evolution is not linear over time (for many different reasons), but "quantum" in nature with periods of remarkable elaboration that almost defy reason (such as the rapid evolution of the human neo-cortext and the proliferation of our species); some scientists. and too many air-headed mystics. believe (panspermia) that there is inter-stellar transmission of genetic materials via comets, asteroids, aliens, etc.
I consider it possible that some much "younger" solar-system than our own might have planets with life-forms that are quite advanced compared to ours; they might have invented Super Mario eons before we did 
Seriously, I also consider it possible that what we experience as our "real lives" are dreams in the mind of some God, gods, extra-corporeal but not robotic entity, rock, blade of grass, or dog.
I sleep easier thinking these thoughts and smiling, because I know I'll never know the truth ... at least not in this present incarnation.

I find it very interesting to ask the questions: is asking if evolution is "reasonable" reasonable; or, is asking any question, including this one, simply anthropomorphic asininity ?

Evolution is a universal law of the same caliber than thermodynamic.
All you need for its mathematically evident presence to be felt is things (say living creature) which, at least once, make imperfect copies of themselves...

Super Lloyd wrote: a universal law
But with only local application. By which I mean that it only applies where there is life.
And remember what the Guide says; there are infinite planets and only a finite number are inhabited, finite divided by infinite is as close to zero as makes no odds, so there is no life.

I've already written a story where several alien races have been encountered, but none of them interact, because they just don't like each other, for different reasons.
It's only bleeding obvious that that's the way it will be, if it ever happens.

Then again, if I were a super-smart super-powerful alien being looking at the destruction these Homo Sapiens (the arrogance of that) are doing to the planet, no, I wouldn't kill them, I'd just create a virus that would sterilize every man an woman so in about 100 years there wouldn't be a single human left. Maybe then nature could recover from the damage, but unless I knew how to time travel, certain things would be forever lost.
Oh yeah, Merry Christmas to you too!

Everyone assumes that there are super-intelligent aliens somewhere out there.
What if humans are the epitome of evolution and it just doesn't get any better than us?
...now I'm really depressed... 
Merry or Happy whatever to everyone! ...there, I feel better now.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

I think of it thusly.
When many are the wonders to behold
And infinite are the stories to be told
When we find another something new to look at
We say "been there, done that!"

Google informed me than someone tried to log-in to my GMail account. He had the correct password and was blocked only because of the odd location - so Google advise me to change my password...
Anyone experienced with such a message?
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Make sure it is not a fake message.
If you do Change your password don't do it from a link in the email.
There are Phishing messages designed to look ligit to get your login info.
So just be carefull.
I don't trust any links from emails where login details are concerned.

I doubt Google would block someone with the correct login credentials just because the location is 'odd'... Is someone having a vacation odd? Or someone visiting friends? Or someone using a proxy server at another location for that matter? And I think a lot of malicious login attempts come from your direct surroundings, like people watching over your shoulder, angry exes or family, etc.
I wouldn't trust that email one bit... Delete it and don't worry about it. You could change your password if it makes you feel safer
