Well this is a fun Sunday! Someone asked me what version of Android the iPhone is based on. "Is it that KitKat thing?"
Thinner and cheaper than a flagship smartphone. killed it with their price of Rs39,999 for this 55 inch smart LED TV. Has it's own OS and plenty of content, 4k compatible as well.
Redmi Note 10 Pro Max only has competition from its own series. Great 108MP camera, lovely screen, 5020mAh battery, good performance with its 732G, RAM & storage options & a nice design. Tough not to recommend between Rsv18,999 and Rd 21,999.
My dad's amazing handwriting from long ago! Even the casual addressing of an envelope is calligraphy
And widgets used to be a dirty word in the Apple world
Many will love to see this back "Nokia 3310, beloved and 'indestructible' mobile phone, to be reborn
Splatted my hand over the #vivov23pro and held it in the sun for a bit. This is what happened. You have to put it back in the sun minus hand to even it out again
Smartphone naming traditions are a silly mess.This-point-that pro, pro + max, max + pro, pro + pro and other meaningless gibberish. Why can't some company lead the way with some interesting names? At this point even hurricanes have better names than phones
Yesterday my driver tells me that the Muslims have manufactured the #DelhiRiots because they want to enslave the rest of us like the Mughals! With what, I asked. He tells me they have two swords in each house while Hindus don't even have a knife. 🙈
Is that an iPhone 8 he's getting?
I truly truly admire the philosophy of the Sikh religion. A salute to them for the selfless way the serve humanity. And let them never think they are unappreciated
They've certainly worked hard at it! Well deserved. Congrats

#PallavBagla deserves the abuse he's getting on Twitter. He spoke more imperiously than Queen Victoria would have to a flustered scientist. Horrible.

this conversation about consciousness and emotions and death with an AI named LaMBDA at Google is absolutely chilling
this is without-a-doubt one of the craziest things I've ever seen technology do, I almost can't believe it's real

Since the iPhone 14 went on sale, the 911 dispatch center near Kings Island amusement park has received at least six phones calls saying:
“The owner of this iPhone was in a severe car crash...”
Except, the owner was just on a roller coaster.

Really feel horrible for the delivery guys who are going about in 44° heat while on Ramadaan fast. Not one drop of water permitted!'it's dangerous!
Not for the first time I stay at a hotel abroad and marvel at the hospitality back home in Indian hotels. In London I'm staying at a clinical and chilly hotel low on friendliness but quick to demand tips for doing nothing.
One mystery. Where do people get firecrackers at this time of the night? Do they always have some at home? #IndvsAus
I got the full works from the Apple Watch last night. High heart rate alert and ECG that said better go see doctor. So I'm tweeting from hospital! Had a feeling of tightness in chest and a few other things. Uh oh, not allowed phone

One of the most condescending phrases associated with tech writing: "If you've been living under a rock". It was outright forbidden in my Living Digital magazine. It's disrespectful to an audience. But it refuses to go away!
Xiaomi has just launched a budget phone Redmi 9 Power. Surprisingly light with a 6,000mag battery.
•INR 10,999 for the 4GB+64GB variant
•INR 11,999 for the 4GB+128GB variant
My cousin is currently fighting a big battle with her housing society because they're fining any apartment that keeps plants. How mad is that? Instead of preserving every bit of nature they want to penalize those who protect it?
Oh dear. This ordering is a little too easy. I find myself giving in to the temptation more often than I should
Beautifully done, I must say

All this time, keyboards were autocorrecting me to Malaysia. Now I've been upgraded to Malware. I can die happy.
These Covid days have got me so mixed up that I clean forgot what I was worrying about. First time I misplaced a worry! And I know it was a BIG worry though now I'll never know what it was.
It's sweet potato season! Tried cutlets with poha in the mix for binding and crispness. They're wonderful. I wonder if it's true that they're ok for diabetics. Read that somewhere.
Uh oh. I raised my wrist and said Alexa to the Apple Watch by mistake. Siri goes "Wow! Awkward!" It was! I think I went a bit red.
My cook is getting too spoiled by technology. She wants to know whether it will rain at 2:30 or 3:00.

With my sleep architecture all messed up I tried a new thing. I set my little but powerful B&O speaker to play soft piano jazz for sleeping. Hmmm so soothing. But all it did was to make me want to sip a whisky.
My mother saw a black tin of peanuts in the fridge and said "Yeh Alexa kisne fridge mein daldi?" She was not kidding.

Apparently not a single doctor or nurse in Taiwan has contracted Covid19! They have an elaborate hygiene procedure and layers of PPE and they never miss a single step. They already know how to do this from the SARS time.
