With a lack of any options for a minimalist phone in India, I am glad that Android allows custom launchers. I have stripped most distractions off my phone with one such option. I’ve managed to kill the subconscious “swipe-tap-launch” cycle for sure.
iPadOS, specifically its multi-tasking, must be Apple’s Achilles’ heel in making the iPad the default family computer. They attempt to improve its windowing capabilities significantly every iteration, only to further muddle it. What’s a Computer? It for sure is not an iPad yet.
And it begins - T20 #cricket worldcup is on the role. There’s been an exciting build up to this match. Yay! 🏏
It is for conversations like this that I love browsing through the Micro.blog timeline. The only place online where I feel am amongst my friends. Thank you, you lovely folks! 😇
Numerous world changing ideas are drained down during the shower, killed by the lack of any tool to capture them with.
Don’t know why, but I am psyched about this year’s T20 #Cricket WorldCup. I don’t fancy the Indian team’s chances - their form has been patchy. Yet I feel this WorldCup will be exciting.
Never listen to the person in you who has just woken up in the morning. He gives the worst advice. The only one he does give for that matter is, “Go back to sleep buddy”.
Just close your ears and run out of your bed.
When cleaning the home is not a chore but a family activity. There’s loads of shopping. Sizzling in the kitchen throughout the day. A sense of excitement, of inexplicable urgency. Diwali vibes are here!
Since I moved microblogging to my blog, I have always focused on getting the look of the short posts right. I didn’t want them to be lost amidst the prominent titled posts. Nor did I like it the other way around. That meant I never had either looking how I wanted them. Well, that’s not the case anymore.
After a long time, I am finally happy with how my long-form articles and short-form notes sit distinctly together. The setup took time and some crazy personalization, but I had to shake a few things just for the sake of it. I had started taking my blogging too seriously, and I didn’t like that. I work better when it’s fun.
The only downside is that it is an entirely custom and personalized theme. And for now, I am okay with that. Plus, it’s still a work in progress.
