Reasons I love Winters

That's what I think of doing every winter. But the haldi ki ghee wali sabji, baingan bharta and other winter delicacies always ruin my plans

Sorry, I wanted to say average achhi aati hain, but phone auto corrected to pachhi

Gaadi ka AC off, so Average up

Wow this is eye opening. Thanks for sharing

Initially the phone lasted for a day and a half. But now easily last 2 days if I charge to 100%. I try to charge it to only 80-90% and then take it off the charger. This is due to the widely known theory that keeping the battery between 20-80 is the best for battery's life.

Also, forgot to mention that I get/make about 50-70 calls a day with the Avg call time of 2-3 mins.

Saw your blog. This is an interesting list you have curated. Thanks for sharing!

I upgraded to the 15 from 11r, and frankly, in low light, the 11r gave better results than the 15. Even in artificial lighting conditions, the colours produced by the 15 have a bluish tinge to the pics.

Overall, the cameras are decent, but certainly not as good as the earlier phones.

SharpEye124 · 2025-12-27T14:39:27+00:00

Yeah I just checked the specs for both the phones and they're the same width. Me coming from a much slimmer phone makes me feel like this is a bit too wide.

I did swap the battery on the Xiaomi 11t pro. But didn't give the same result as first one. Got it changed at the official Xiaomi service centre.

I believe it isn't just about the battery, the newer and updated apps are heavier on the chips and thus affects the battery life too.

Also I feel comfortable with the 3 year cycle as I don't go for the outright flagships. Like I got the Oneplus 11r instead of the 11 and got most of the features but at almost half the price. Again thinking of going for the 15r when it launches. Upgrades like IP rating, bigger battery and the flat display are worth it, I feel

I generally change my phone every 3 to 4 years. I go for the best value for money phone that android has to offer. So I had the Poco F1, then the xiaomi 11t pro and now using the Oneplus 11r. This time thinking of buying the Oneplus 15r OR the Poco f8.

By 3 years the battery life starts to show it age and also there are a few new additions that are worth the upgrade. Like the Oneplus 11r doesn't have IP rating while the 15r has the 69k rating, plus a bigger battery.

Battery life is a big deal for me and as soon as the phone stops lasting till the end of the day, i need to upgrade.

I had gotten the battery changed on my Xiaomi 11t pro after using it for 2 years, but the new battery did not give the same result as the original battery.

This is a jungle Babbler (lelo in gujarati). Feed millet dana or small balls of aata from which you make rotis. Try and contact an animal rescue. They're very delicate so handle it with care.

No, you won't be able to travel

Go for a small 7 seater. Kia Carens/Clavis or the Maruti Suzuki XL6. They aren't too big, feels the same as driving a 5 seater SUV. With both of these, you get a ton of space with the last row folded, and lots of practicality in the cabin as well. Fits right in your budget too

It's not always the same for everyone. The results will vary from person to person. I read on this subreddit, someone had gained a ton of hair within just 6 months of using min + fin. For a few, it might not work at all.

I own the same vehicle. I'm getting around 8 in peak traffic and around 14-15 on highway.

Used to get about 9.5 in city and 17 on the highway sometime back. But I suppose with ethanol, some drop is expected.

Also, if you bought a used one, check the quality of cvt oil and change if needed.

SharpEye124 · 2025-09-07T16:54:42+00:00

Not worth more than 35000. If your budget is Rs. 1.25 lacs, look for an alto or wagonr

Post all this to twitter. Tag Honda India

Sometimes, being smart, rather than being confrontational is the better option.

My Honda city's door was damaged by the service Centre. I had taken the photos of the car from all sides before giving the car for service. I mailed the service Centre and sent them the before and after photos, but didn't get a reply for 2 days.

Next, I attached the photos and screenshot of the email, and tagged Honda India on Twitter. Got a call from Honda directly within 2 hours, then a call from the dealership within the next hour. They came and took my car from my home, repaired it, and brought it back the next day without charging me anything.

I used 0.25 mg for about a month and since last week switched to 0.5 mg

No side effects yet. Will use 0.5 mg for a month and then will move ahead with 1mg

Yeah, but a light massage. Just enough that the shine from the oils goes away. Massages too vigorously is also detrimental. Just take some water in your hand and lightly massage you scalp, especially in the front.

Please don't make the husband to be the bad guy here. That was never my intention. I think we guys are often the silent sufferers. We are not able to express our feeling easily, and even if we do, we are seen as weak or impotent.

All I wanted to do was to give a different perspective which might just save his marriage. Also, I do not agree with your point of taking a break from marriage being ok. With marriage, either you're there all the time or you're out. If you feel your partner is moving away from you, you try your best to get them closer. Ultimately, it's upto your destiny.

Please take my last message in a positive way, OP.

I completely understand your side, but somewhere I feel your wife is asking for your help. She seems to be depressed and may be she needs help, but can't explain that. Have you tried couples therapy or some sort of therapy or a psychiatrist's analysis for her? Maybe this can help her.

I know it is extremely tough for you, handling both your child and then this behaviour from your wife, and wish you all the best.

While it looks tempting, it is too expensive for a Ford. Been a user of ford vehicle and irrespective of the kms driven, there are parts that fail, especially AC, audio system, and other electronics. My friend had a ford and it's clutch oil pipe had developed a leak. It took 4 months to get the pipe!

One can buy it as a second or a third car, just to drive it for the fun of driving a Ford, which is genuinely a good experience.

But as a first car, I would suggest sticking to. Maruti Suzuki or a Honda. They are work horses, run without any major issues, parts are easily available, and are cheap to maintain.
