Solipsistic Meanderings

Watched "In Charles Dickens' Footsteps with Gyles Brandreth" yesterday. Absolutely loved the narration by @GylesB1 but have to confess that I couldn't help but wish for some anecdotes by him 😝

We've had 4 incidents (3 noise + 1 other) with @Airbnb rentals the last couple of weeks. @Airbnb says they care about the community, but their actions don't seem to reflect this.

We watched “Bhoomi” (பூமி) – https://t.co/IDCcO9p2MA – a few days ago. Horrible movie with so many logic holes that you could probably fit Mars in there 😛
So went back and watched “Swades” (स्वदेस) – https://t.co/OD3H3m1obr – since it’s the same theme. So, so much better! 1/2 16:54:49
“Swades” still stands the test of time even after 17 years. Plus, it hit home pretty close in terms of what people are going through in Sri Lanka …
Wish there was a silver-bullet solution for Sri Lanka like in the movie, but alas, not so simple in real-life 🙁 2/2 16:54:52

When I wrote "The Doll" ( https://t.co/kWz3VFqsPN ) @nazly was kind enough to say that I could use some of his other images for the other stories I intended to write.
So, here's where I'm going for the next "doll" story – the before and the after 🙂 https://t.co/BSIvfCmRyO 21:04:14

I haven't written any fiction in a long time. A story that @milzybud wrote based on a photograph by @nazly inspired me to try my hand at writing fiction again.
So here's my story – "The Doll" https://t.co/zSZgpA3sXN 20:34:35

“Doctor” (டாக்டர்) – https://t.co/8zasd1JjOX – is one of the most enjoyable Tamil movies I’ve seen in a while 🙂 Funny, different, and fairly intelligent, though there are a few licenses taken for the sake of humour. Definitely a change from the usual hyper-violent fare … 01:55:30

Evolution of the Apple Watch from first generation (not Series 1 mind you, but first generation) to Series 7. The first generation watch still works fine, BTW 🙂 https://t.co/aN4p1qCSat 01:28:02

The Second Edition of "UIKit Apprentice" is now out. Go take a look if you are a new to iOS development or want to learn about how to develop iOS apps (using Swift) from scratch 🙂

Apple’s “Foundation” is a huge disappointment. It is nothing at all like the “Foundation” I remember from way back when I read Isaac Asimov’s writing …
This is more like a bastardised version trying to draw parallels with American empire building than anything else, IMO. 01:15:36
