Android Studio

 I was getting addicted to Androids fromJelly Beans toKit Kat and I had 10 or more Android phones and tablets to play with.

The next stage was to go for Android Studio.      

I downloaded Android Studio with a capacity of1.2GB but never tested the Studio on Ubuntu. 

By default, Android Studio has a maximum heap size of 1,280 MB. 

I was looking for a book (preferably with a DVD) with Code in Ceylon for over 4 years and I could not find. Here, now I am in Australia and I could not find a book on Android Studio. 

Android keeps the Code to themselves. 

I begin to hate Google. 

When I found it is all Java Script, I was disappointed and that the Code has bugs and bugs. Now the Code Stuff may have doubled and gone up to2.5GB. 

My gut feeling of its Heap Size is 4GB and that is why it is asking for 4 to 8GB RAM. 

Please do not confuse with RAM and Heap Size.

It is getting bigger and bigger and buggier and buggier.

 

If you look at the Android base, it has the Linux Kernel, GUI and a Browser.

 

Little mention on Steam and Steam Deck. 

If you look at Steam, it is stuck there for ages at Steam 3. 

It is a Game Console, and a basic browser on top. 

The games one has to purchase.

Steam OS is a big failure of the Linux Freedom Concept.

They promised to release a new Linux Distribution for the desktop but never kept that promise.

Steam Deck and drive is over 350 US dollars and I can buy 3 basic NUCs for that price. 

Of course, I need to spend on RAM and I have enough SSDs (not the expensive NVMes).

Nice Story

I got an inkling that I was appointed as the Dean of the Faculty of Medicine. 

I waited for the postman but the letter was not in the mail. 

I had two other letters but they were not official. 

I walked into the Department of Pathology and Miss Mantree Ugugama hand delivered the letter. 

I refused to accept it saying it violate the protocol.

Then I walked into the V.C.'s office to see that he did not have a minute for me. 

He was attending to a private affair of a child of another academic member. 

 

I withhold both of their names.

But, I told him that I am sick and I cannot accept the post by hand delivery of a letter. 

It has to come through proper channels.

Then I had a casual look at the old office of the Dean and realized it was converted into a makeshift store with cupboards and books hanging around.

 

Then I peeped through the new Dean's office.

It was a rat infested derelict dungeon.

I went back to the Senate to report sick officially. 

Then there was a plot to kill me by pushing to a dark hole in the Art's Faculty Students Auditorium. 

I survived hanging on to a ridge but sustained paella break. 

I walked into the VC Office limping and told Vice Chancellor that I broke my patella and there was an attempt to kill me.

He said that it (Patella injury) is a disqualification. 

I told him we had a Dean with a limp.

 

He did  not want to entertain my disability.

I woke up but nevertheless made an ENTRY at the Peradeniya Police Station, that there was an attempt on my life knowing very well they do not take action on Campus Disputes.
