    The book I am reading currently

    How are these? I have read the top one and few others by the same author. There's no escape from this one it seems. Went to Crosswords store - this is everywhere. Amazon, Audible - this is the first book in every list. I had watched few of his videos - okayish and seems I am (late 30's) not...

    Rate the Last Movie You Saw...

    Avatar 2 - I didn't felt any of the wow factor. This brings nothing new from the 1st movie and with an even weaker story and characters. Under water scenes are something new, but I'm glad that I didn't pay 1850rs for that in IMAX.

    I showed it to my 5 years old son and he became obsessed with Lighning Mcqueen. In last one year, I might have watched the 1st movie at least 10 times, mostly to accompany my kid. But I hardly get bored. :)

    Recently watched Bullet Train - entertaining/decent. 7/10 Lal Singh Chaddha : 3/10 - well, I had to watch it to know how much they ruined the original. And yeah, I am not disappointed. 3 points only for 'Indian'izing the various characters, which I didn't find much awkward. Brahmastra : 2/10 -...

    Suggest car vacuum cleaner

    I planned to buy one few years back. Then I realized going for a wash in the nearby car-wash center is economical, less hassle for my lazy ass. Here in Bangalore, they charge 300rs for exterior foam bath & vaccum+air pressure cleaning for the interior (for hatchback).

    The book I am reading currently

    Done with Six of Crows Crooked Kingdom Both are 5 ⭐ for me. Nice characters and scenes, story is also awesome. Presentation or flow of the book is gripping. Among very few books where I felt sad when it's coming to an end, wishing if it would get few more pages. I listened to both in...

    Croma brand appliances

    Have stayed in 3 different houses, so electrical or other environmental things aren't common. Heating part I am not sure as the last one was kept inside a enclosed (front open ) kitchen cabinet, with just 3/4 inches on all sides. Might be an issue. But again, solo oven is hardly used for...

    Croma brand appliances

    I am looking for a solo microwave oven. In the last few years, we had to dispose 2 ovens till now. One was LG Convection - bough 2011, changed motherboard(!) in 2016 worked for another 1.5 years and gone again. Spares became obsolete by then, hence discarded as garbage. Next got an Samsung solo...

    Smartwatch within 10K

    Keeping track and targeting something (say step count, calorie count, sleep timing etc) indeed will make someone fitter. And even if someone is playing with the gadgets they own, at their own time, own expense - whom am I to judge. Another useful feature is the notifications - one doesn't need...

    Rate the Last Movie You Saw...

    Prey - 7/10 - a decent package overall. Luck - 5/10 - boring at times. (Soul, Coco - on similar lines where the main character goes to some un-real land and save something/someone - were way better.) Lightyear - 5/10 - okayish/skippable Morbius - 4/10 Batman (2022) - 8/10 - this one I liked.

    Rate the Last Movie You Saw...

    Watched Thor - love and thunder and found it utterly boring !! Every character trying way too much to be funny, on every dialogue. Wasted characters by Christian Bale, Russell Crowe. :(
