நான் மக்கள் சென்னை செய்ய என்ன இருக்கிறது என்று தெரியவில்லை. எழுதும் அதை நான் எப்போதும் ஒரு கணினியில் பார்த்திருக்கிறேன் ரொம்ப அழகு எழுத்து இருக்கிறது என்று பல சுழல்கள் மற்றும் வட்டங்களில் இருந்தது. நான் Google பதிலளிக்க மொழிபெயர்க்க பயன்படுத்தி வருகிறேன்.
நான் பதில் வேண்டும் போல் நான் உணர்கிறேன், அதனால் நான் tripadvisor.com சென்னை வரை பார்த்தேன். நான் முதலை பூங்காவிற்கு சென்று நான் நினைக்கிறேன்.

Other than the usual like Google Maps, MTC bus timings (which is completely useless since they never follow the time table) and Zomato, Genie is a good one, basically they will do stuff / deliver things like Sathyam popcorn if you're busy (or lazy).

This is what this month's weather has been like - and happily I feel this it has been quite mild:
Things I never mess with here: humidity, traffic, dust. These 3 can escalate to bitch levels pretty quickly. I'd suggest you do all your moving around in an air-conditioned vehicle.

yeah try to gaze on new moon days or days close to new moon. apart from light pollution, moon is the biggest thing thats gonna stop u from seeing galaxies n clusters on binoculars. but even when the moon is there, u can gaze at the moon
plus u need to let ur eyes adjust to the dark (for about 20 mins) so it becomes sensitive to the weak light from the sky. even using ur phone on medium settings will ruin ur eyes sensitivity. I always used to turn on red filter for my phone n bring the brightness all the way down if I was gazing with a companion app.
ps: try looking for iridium flares if u are using binoculars. they're super predictable(but doesn't last long) and binoculars are perfect for them.

Definitely don't buy HP or dell. I would recommend acer > asus
acer nitro and asus tuf gaming both are good for office purposes too.
I'm not a gamer, but I both acer helios. I am using my acer helios for last 5 years now, and it is snappy and fast even now.

I guess the ground rule to reading books in languages that we are not comfortable reading in, is to start reading on subjects/topics that interests us. I used to love reading movie reviews, so reading tamil movie reviews on Kumudham/Vikatan was a breezy thing to do. On that note, I recently picked this book from Amazon which as the name suggests is a book about how Tamil rockers operate (a subject I had always wanted to understand). You may pick this book if it interests you. Tamil Rockers

This one is what I have (i think). Bought it a very long time ago.

I don't know why most people here are so against this, what they claim might and can be true, but at the same time, it's useless in most cases. Remember these are supplements not a replacement for actual food despite what they claim it's not "a meal", it doesn't matter if it has 1000000% of something as long as it is under safe levels, your body will absorb only what it needs. 99% of these supplements are useless if you normally consume the required nutrients in food but if your food lacks some your body can get them from these supplements.
Also, I never heard of this brand and their claim and weird use of % makes it seem dubious, if you're considering buying this I would recommend getting something from a well-recognized brand, I bought one from Parry's for my dad in 2020 because he insisted to buy one even though I tried to convince him these are useless, I only bought it because I recognized the brand would've never bought some from random brands.
this book is still there on amazon for 99Rs here
Not sure if im too late. but for Apple, don't get the original adapter. get Anker Nano Pro 20W charger. its way superior and everyone in r/apple think that way. I briefly used Iphone 13 pro max for a month before selling it for S22 Ultra and I really loved the Anker charger. it was small and sleek and it has variable wattage so when you at trickle charge, it reduces the amount of current that flows through the adapter thus saving battery life.

Some ~~churches~~ denominations support their philosophies.
> ~~Churches~~ denominations isn’t the doctrine they put out but also their actions
They build their doctrines to fit their world view - anti semitic, racist, you name it.
> which Church? lol
The Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church. The rest are denominations. Actions of the denominations that broke away doesn’t concern the Church or the Christian religion.
As for the sexual abuses in the Church, it is a real deal. The accusations are all from the previous century. The Church has made serious reforms after the the cases the criminal bishops hid about the criminal priests that preyed on children and women surfaced. Words cannot explain the sufferings of the victims. LA auxiliary Bishop Robert Barron’s book elaborates it.

The same thing happened with me but with a different device. My phone was missing for several days. According to findmyphone, it was saying that my phone went to some places literally like 20 kms away. But when I searched my home thoroughly once again, i found it in a cupboard. So ig it's not always that accurate. My suggestion is, search your house once again thoroughly. Use this app:

It's pretty much legit. Though there is the oddball who pockets it.

Cuz we are an utterly colonized nation which has accepted a language which was shoved down its throat but require high merits from a native language to merely learn how to speak in it it's the same reason for Sanskrit a language doesn't evolve if not used regularly you can't say that I'll use sanskrit after it becomes a dominant language in science , firstly you have to make it dominant in normal forms of life then only the need arises for it to be use in scientific form , english was forced on us and see here we are validating it by saying it's a scientific language whereas people in Portugal are writing acclaimed books on Bitcoin (https://www.amazon.in/dp/B081CXXVWW/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_6SM0ZGCN420CZ98T6FNV) in portugese we stand here telling requesting to just start speaking a fellow native language, we as a generation need to bring this change we can't expect everything to be spoonfed we need to make our languages great it's not the other way.

I've done a hell lot of touring in India and US myself, and typically for me, when I reach a new place, I'd like to spend hours studying up the must-visit places, eating points and transit options, then go it and do it all alone. Have had plenty of success in most places.
As for your question, it really depends on what part of Chennai you are in. You might be frequenting a nice and green area, plenty of trees all around, with great infrastructure and minimal traffic, in which case you wont have anything bothersome. For the weather aspect, take a look at the hourly stats for July 15, 2015:
https://www.wunderground.com/history/airport/VOMM/2015/7/15/DailyHistory.html?MR=1
We're talking about a temperature of 28.7C(heat index, which is the actual feel, is 32.7 C) at freaking 6AM. Add this with a humidity of 84%. The evening is not much different - 7.10PM shows 31C, heat index 37.6 and RH of 70%. I'm not sure how long you're going to be comfortable outdoors in such conditions. I know for sure that within 5 minutes, my shirt is soggy with sweat and I start dreading it because the crazy traffic ensures I won't be home for another hour at least.
You might want to venture out around the area where you stay the first couple of days, and then push it from there. I know the Chennai-diehards will hate me for this but I'd say Chennai has some of the most hostile weather conditions in the world(and I've seen Dallas summers and Kentucky winters, where a hard-ass attitude is enough to survive the outdoors)
Edit: I've found the ECR stretch to be mild since we get a constant breeze from the ocean that's about half a kilometer away.

Got this from amazon recently. Might wanna compare prices in amazon/flipkart as they have diwali sale going on. Got the above model for 18k after discounts, cashback and exchanging my 10 year old ifb model.
As for what to look for
Capacity : 6-6.5kg is good enough for a family of 2-4 provided you wash your clothes individually.
Front load/top load : Front loads are more efficient in terms of power and water usage and they also wash better. But they are costlier.
Top loads are cheaper and also easy to use for old people with back problems.

I referred this when I started my prep. Use old syllabus books. You could find free pdf in some sites. If you go to Anna Nagar, you could buy printouts iirc.
Always keep a printout of syllabus nearby.
Economics is something you would always find less prepared. My suggestion would be this book by Sankar Ganesh for concepts.

There is now an app for tracking Covid in Chennai released by the corporation!
They also have a Twitter handle for announcements including contact tracing.
I've had the app since launch, it is pretty bad and pretty much useless.
First you have to add your vehicle, so do that before heading out. The app also requires a better than average data connection. The concept is that you have have an available space (according to the app) and only then can you park the car and pay. I had gone to Besant nagar beach and the app showed no vacant space while I had managed to find a space and park the car. So I couldn't pay via app. Ended up paying cash to the attendant.

Will try tonight to watch at the moon and then see what happens,as I wear specs -2 no I remove them to have a better view of the eyepiece and it doesnt feel right, and i cant use binoculars with specs, ,so since i got the high zoom cam, i prefer to use it to zoom on objects, . Carrying a binoculars or high zoom camera in India and shooting pics or looking in Public feels too ackward to do alone. Once we can go to beach so that we can look at far off objects like couples (both ships n humans) Hehehe
