It was back in just under two hours. I was making my morning coffee with water boiled on the gas stove, and the Outin travel espresso maker that my wife gave me for Christmas.
We take so much for granted in Singapore. Thankful for these things. Like stable electricity and water.
Power restored to the home. We had a rare scheduled shutdown of electricity in our estate, from 9-11am, because of some construction work that needed the power supply to be cut.

Iโll wait for the second version of the DJI robot vacuum, the one that lets me operate it with FPV goggles and can fly.
Iโm a sucker for technology like that.

My friend pointed out that my photo of the short blackout in the NE part of Singapore, looks like an album cover.
For our new imaginary band, Power Failure, the album name: Rescue in Operation.
Power Failure is maybe the brother band of Power Station (ๅๅ็ซ่ป๏ผ.
Or it can also be a U2 album cover.

It's one of the rare things in life that lets you escape from the world, while also connecting you to it. I love to spin my way through forests, around lakes, and into little communities I never knew existed.โ
WhatsApp does it more logically: If you tag someone in a group chat, YOU see what you named that person in your Contacts, but others see what THEY named that person.
Otherwise if you are in a group chat and you have one colleague you named CB Kia, everyone in the chat will see what you named him.
Itโs interesting to me that iMessage displays the name you saved a contact under when you tag them.
But I use a nickname for my wife in my Contacts. And everyone in an iMessage group chat can see that nickname when I tag her.
Good thing I didnโt name her Tits McGee.
I may have a small insulated flask addiction.
(Thatโs a 180ml Kyocera CERAMUG MB-06S, in case youโre wondering).
Dialing in a fresh bag of coffee beans today. I am a little edgy. Talk to me later.

I pumped up the tires of my folding bicycles and charged my Lumos Firefly lights today.
You can thank me for bringing the storm.
Listen. It is 2025 already. Donโt make devices that can only be charged by USB-A to USB-C cables, can? Arrrgh!

Recently, a friendโs dry cabinet failed without his knowing, and it caused the expensive lenses and cameras within to get fungus. 70-80% humidity inside. Yikes.
So I use separate hygrometers in my dry cabs, linked to an app, to alert me if the humidity goes beyond 60%. Mine are from Inkbird.
Some people are Ghost Whisperers. Some are Dog Whisperers.

Donโt listen to the critics who gave low scores, A Minecraft Movie was a lot of fun.
I watched it with my adult son who played Minecraft growing up, and he had a blast.
I also enjoyed the silliness.
We were surrounded by kids and their parents at our preview screening though. lol

What a tragic loss of life.
Those migrant workers and civilians who helped save the kids and adults were heroes. It would have been much much worse if they didnโt intervene.
