Violoncello Updates and Other Remainder of Summer/Fall 2021 Plans

Hey, everyone! After a long trip to Michigan and then the west coast, I'm finally back home and able to resume work on my projects. In this post, I'll be going over some of my plans for the rest of summer and fall 2021. So, let's begin!

Violoncello Updates

This fall, my main focus will continue to be Violoncello! Since its launch in November 2020, it has become my most successful project ever, and I have really enjoyed working on it and improving it over time. There's still a ton of new things I want to work on and add to the app, so I will likely be spending a considerable amount of time doing so for the foreseeable future!

Other Plans

While Violoncello is going to be my primary focus, I also want to dedicate some time to improving some other existing projects. These include TaskNudge and Compliment Moi as you probably would expect, but also LifeBoard, binoc, and some of my Wear OS projects among other things. My hope is that I will be able to continue to improve and polish these projects while also breathing some new life into my older ones.

The Conclusion

To summarize, my primary focus for the next few months will be refining my existing creations rather than creating new ones. Again, Violoncello will be my main focus, but I probably won't be exclusively working on it. I definitely have some major plans for this fall, and I'm looking forward to what comes next!

Before I end this post, I would also like to thank everyone who has used, reviewed, provided feedback, and supported my apps over the last year. I really appreciate it, and I hope you all are excited about the future of my projects!

Late 2014 Mac mini in 2022 - Still Worth Buying?

About a year ago, I reviewed the 2014 Mac mini on this blog. Ultimately, I came to the conclusion that it was still an excellent machine for productivity tasks, but it could also handle some more intense things you threw at it. Thus, it became my daily driver up until I upgraded to a 2017 MacBook Air a few months ago. That being said, I’ve still been using it some, so I thought I’d briefly share how it’s holding up these days. Here are my thoughts on this miniature Macintosh one year later! Performance Over the last year, I’ve been impressed by how much this Mac can handle. It’s rocking a 2.6 GHz dual-core Core i5 with 8 GB of RAM and a Samsung 860 Evo 1 TB SATA SSD. What all that jargon essentially means is that it’s a moderately powerful little computer, although it certainly isn’t going to put newer Macs to shame. Regardless, I’ve been able to do lots of coding, video editing, and schoolwork on this computer, and it has generally worked pretty well. Granted, it can take a while to

Violoncello for Windows is finally here!

Hi, everyone! Ever since I first started working on it over a month ago, I have spent countless hours creating and perfecting Violoncello for Windows. Featuring a slick and minimal UI, lots of customization options, and support for Windows versions going all the way back to XP, I am very pleased with how the Windows version of Violoncello has turned out. As a result, I am very excited to announce that Violoncello for Windows has finally been released! Violoncello for Windows is packed with features, some of which are found in the mobile version, and others that are not. Some of these include: Open in main browser: Easily open the page you are currently viewing in Violoncello in your default browser! Custom search engine: Choose from Bing, Google, DuckDuckGo, Wikipedia, or set your own. Lots of customization: Change the background and text colors, and choose a font. Bookmarks: Easily manage and visit bookmarks. Jump to top: Quickly jump to the top of a page. (0, 0) Those are most of the

Weird Cars I (Really) Want

Hey, y’all. Today, we’re talking about cars again. Good thing they’re super neat! This time, we’re going to discuss 5 exceedingly strange cars that I want to own. I should clarify that these cars were not necessarily ugly or strange at the time they were released, but they’re not particularly pleasant to look at or own now. So, let’s dive in. Fiat 126 This car is absolutely abysmal. It’s been covered by a lot of big YouTube channels , and it is so ridiculously underpowered that I can’t help but admire it. Having 2 cylinders in a “proper” car is hilarious to me, and I would love to see how terrible the acceleration is. I also enjoy how basic and barren the interior is and that the engine is located in the back. You can tell that this car was not made for Americans. I know that it’s probably a very deadly ride, but I want a 126 regardless. There’s no helping it. The desire will not go away. Is friend. PT Cruiser Convertible To begin, I am not a Chrysler fan… or a PT Cruiser fan. That sai
