Utilities!

Windows 10 launched way back in 2015. It was mostly a refined version of Windows 8.1. It featured a new start screen, new apps, and a brand new STORE! Yes, a new store. First called Windows Store, the store has now been rebranded to Microsoft Store.
The store first launched with only universal apps. With time the store has now evolved to a place where you would actually go searching for apps and games.
The store now includes win32 apps and one of those apps is a little utility called Ear Trumpet.
I like to play online games (DOTA 2), as it allows me to play with my friends. We use Skype of all the communications apps to talk in game. So here lies the problem. I listen to music, play the game and talk with my friends all at once!
Windows 10 as you know lacks any way to tweak the volume of each application. Enter Ear Trumpet. It allows me to tweak the volume of my music, Skype, and the game right from the taskbar!
Trust me it might seem trivial, but Ear Trumpet is a life saver.

Spiderman: Homerun

The third reboot of the Spiderman franchise is old news. So is the fact that it was a huge success, but I only got to watch it tonight, Now that I am done watching it, I am going to talk about it. Spiderman homecoming is a good movie. It has a simple story, stellar cast and a director who knows what he is doing. At its core, Spiderman homecoming is a simple coming of age teen flick. And that is what makes Homecoming so good! The movie has very little faults, so let’s get them out of the way first. It lacked action and the soundtrack was average. Done these are my gripes with the movie. Now let’s talk about the good stuff. The movie really fleshes out the characters . Supporting characters like Ned get a lot more screen time then they did on Spiderman’s last outing. Tom Holland is perfectly cast as the web-slinger and for me, he rivals Toby for the best Actor to portray Spidey! For the first time, Spiderman is an actual teen! He has school to deal with and his aunt is not hi...

Birds of Prey: Feminism done right

While the world is at a standstill due to the Novel CoronaVirus, I finally got time to return to watching movies and series. The first movie I saw? Birds of Prey and how I regret missing out on this in the cinemas. The movie is great! It is a self-aware, fourth-wall-breaking joy ride. It paints a new picture of Gotham city from the perspective of Harley Quinn and I love this vibrant new Gotham! The movie kicks off with our protagonist Harley, who has recently broken up with the Joker. She is trying to get by all alone and prove herself to the world. The plot of the movie revolves around Bertinelli's fortune, the key to which is in a diamond. Roman Stonis aka The Black Mask is behind the killing of the Bertinelli's’ and now wants their fortune. He hires Harley to recover the diamond and viola! We have ourselves a popcorn crunching, the edge of your seat, jaw-dropping female-led action movie! All the characters were spot on, be it Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn or my second fa...
