    The book I am reading currently

    Most of Chetan Bhagat's works reads as if it were meant to be a bollywood script. It's fine for people that are into that kind of stuff. Also, it's a nice way for non-readers to get into reading, because his work is generally an easy read.

    The book I am reading currently

    I recently got into graphic novels, and I have picked up this one called From Hell by Alan Moore. It's supposedly a must read when it comes to graphic novels. I am already a fan of Alan Moore, and I have read most of his other works, but this is new to me.

    WTB Router ups 12v or 9v working or dead

    I have one that died quite recently. The brand is called Oakter, and it's 12v or rather used to be if I remember correctly. I am willing to send it over for free, provided that you cover the cost of shipping.

    BSNL Fibre Issue

    I had something similar happen to me a really long time ago pre-fiber, but with Airtel. I had my Airtel connection disconnected, and surrendered all the hardware as well. Everything seemed perfect, until they suddenly said that I had unpaid dues. They were charging me for a couple of more...

    Fire TV Stick or any other ??

    I would actually recommend a google based streaming service rather than the Firestick, like the Mi Stick/Box, or the Realme stick. A google based android stick will give you the added advantage of being able to use Chromecast. It might not seem like that big of a deal, but trust me, being able...

    21-30k Tablet for Father - Pls advise timely

    Honestly if you have a maximum budget of 30k, then you might as well get your father the base iPad, which comes to exactly 30k. There is absolutely no competition when it comes to tablets at that price point. However, if you must only buy an Android tablet, then get the 4GB ram variant of the...

    WTB Amazon Fire stick / Mi Box / Raspberry pi 4 / android phone with USB C to HDMI out

    You could certainly do that, but a dedicated streaming device that you can control from your couch would definitely be a much better experience, for media consumption. If you have a better PC, and a decent network setup, then you can also locally stream your games using Steam Link or Parsec...

    WTB Amazon Fire stick / Mi Box / Raspberry pi 4 / android phone with USB C to HDMI out

    The firestick is on a sale right now in Amazon. You could probably have a look at it. However, I would probably recommend an android based streaming device like the Mi Box or the Realme Stick, because of the added option to be able to cast.

    Mobile Number ownership transfer

    I had an Aircel number under my mom's name. Eventually when Aircel was dying, I ported to Vodafone. While registering at Vodafone, I gave my details, and I now have the number under my name. So, MNP is definitely one of the route that you can explore.

    PC Peripherals How is your expxerience of using Sony DualShock 4 (PS4) Controller on a PC?

    I use the exact same bluetooth adaptor, and I also use the DS4 with it. It works really well, when all you have connected through bluetooth is the controller alone. If you also pair a headphone, you will either end up with slightly unresponsive controller, or a lot of distortions on the...
