Localized Gujarati Geek

Some updates..

Posted in Debian, Personal by Kartik Mistry on July 16th, 2007

* Long time, no see! Well, I am busy with ‘real’ life :) Kavin is fine and growing like increasing number of Linux users ;)

* Firefox (ah, IceWeasel!) team is coming to Mumbai (See ILUG-BOM website/mailing list for more details), as a contributor to Gujarati Localization, I got this cool Tshirt.

* Installed Debian ‘Etch’ on my office machine! Earlier, I was responsible for installing Ubuntu here :)
It took around 20 minutes for fresh install (1st CD). I would love if we can fit OO.o in first CD! Everything went fine. Smooth migration from Thunderbird mail box to IceDove. And, I love this cool sw seahorse.

USB Drive

* I got new 4GB USB pen drive yesterday. While waiting for my piece at Lemington Road Shoppe, I remembered the day when 256 MB pen drive cost me 1250 INR. This 4GB (~3.8 GB actually!) cost me 1650 INR :)

* Baby is named ‘Kavin’ (gu: કવિન, hi: कविन), which means handsome (also in Tamil!).

Being Father

Posted in Mumbai, Personal by Kartik Mistry on June 21st, 2007

* .. is not easy! The little one is doing fine but mom was feeling some weakness due to lost of sleep at night, so we went to hospital today. Now, I am thanking myself for being here and having 2 weeks off from Office/Traveling.

If you wondering that why it is hard to be mom/papa? See below.

My brother recorded voice of above feat. Very interesting, but I wasn’t able to listen it fully!
