I turned 43 today; this year significantly changed my life. I am a parent now. It’s not that my worldview suddenly changed since I became a father. Nothing like that has happened. What has happened is I love my new role and enjoy doing the things that come with this role. Hence my life has changed, that’s all.
I wanted a portable but big enough power bank for my car trips and camps. The one that can charge laptops, can run some small power tools and have UPS like functionality.
We are in Thrissur today. We are here for 3 to 4 weeks as we do almost every quarter. This time, it’s special as it’s the baby’s first long drive. I thought it would be challenging, but it was much easier than I thought. We took additional baby breaks; otherwise, all five of us reached Thrissur comfortably. The car now looks like an overlander. It’s now ready to take us anywhere for a longer period of time; It needs a blog of its own.
I lost track of days this week. I thought today was Friday, but today is Saturday :) So, it’s delayed by a day for the first time since I started posting Weekly notes.
I have used VirtualBox for creating Virtual Machines, especially when trying something new or needing isolation. Over time, parts of the needs were satisfied by Docker (Podman). But there are still instances where I would like a proper virtual machine. These days, I have moved to QEMU, that too, Quickemu.
It’s been a week of meeting friends and family. We kept it close for the first couple of weeks so we could get to know each other. Now that we are comfortable as a unit, we slowly have friends and family over.
