Best way to clean spectacle lenses without cloth marks

Image
Hi all, in this post I would be covering the best way of wiping your spectacle lenses clean.  Usually when you purchase your spectacles, it would come in a hard casing with a cleaning cloth too. However, I often feel that wiping lenses with the cloth included isn't the best way to clean my glasses as I often get some cloth marks on the lenses which makes using the spectacles a blurry experience, at least for a while before the marks fade. Dirty Specs These are the  3 steps to cleaning the lenses while avoiding those cloth marks. Wash your glasses under tap water . You can use a mild soap if your glasses are oily.

Some ideas for sorting out data in SD cards

Process of recovering my data from corrupted Sandisk SD card

Image
Hi all, in this post I would be going through the steps/apps I used to gain back some of my data in my corrupted SD card without spending any money.  Disclaimer : I didn't managed to recover all the data that was in it but managed to get back most of the important ones eg photos, songs. The photos here were taken after I already recovered the data so It might not be what you will see when you are using the software.  Background : I bought this 64 GB SD card online, and used it as additional storage for my phone to store videos, songs, photos and documents. I had about 32 GB worth of data in it. I didn't go to a computer fixing place as Singapore is in circuit breaker mode(many non-essential places are closed) and I am a cheapskate (was afraid it was going to be expensive). Identifying a corrupted SD card So first, identifying that my SD card was corrupted. The moment it hit me was when after inserting the SD card into 3 devices( phone, tablet, computer),  they all had not...
