Coronavirus pandemic has taken the world by storm, claiming hundreds of victims globally. Tech companies have as a result pushed back their online device launches or even cancelled events completely. Google just announced that it will not be holding its I/O 2020 developer’s conference, which was earlier scheduled to be an online-only event.
Vivo recently tweeted that it will be launching its Vivo V19 smartphone in India on March 26 (this would make it a same-day launch as the Realme Narzo 10 series), but there is a cloud of uncertainty on all events next week.
There is no confirmation as of now if the launch will be delayed or not, but according to a new report by 91Mobiles, the launch has already been delayed and will take place on April 3 now.
Here’s a look at Vivo V19’s predecessor
That the company has since then removed the launch tweet could be a hint in this direction. This should give the company a bit of a buffer.
The reason why Vivo has not have revealed a new launch date might be because it is still assessing the situation. If it were to pass then it will go ahead with the event on April 3. Or else there could be a long wait ahead. But for now, the date is March 26.

Whatever Vivo decides to do, I would personally recommend that you stay safe at home with a good measure of social distancing. If you feel too bored while doing that here is a list of games that I recommend, you download on your phone and start playing while at home.

|Field of Study:||Computer Programming/Programmer, General
Game and Interactive Media Design
|Description:||Video games are an increasingly important part of contemporary life and entertainment. The new GAME program prepares students to lead in the creation of games — from the programming that makes a game work to the design and realization of dynamic experiences and the planning and management of production processes.
GAME is offered concurrently at Brock and Niagara College. The program provides opportunities to explore the game space from every angle. You’ll gain a broad understanding of this complex field as you look at game programming, multiple game engines, game platforms, and various design ad production paradigms. You’ll also examine core issues that surround games such as play, agency, narrative, dynamics, and immersion. Intensive production courses are offered in Years Two, Three, and Four of the program. In these courses, you’ll work on collaborative teams to create game components, prototypes and ultimately produce fully realized games.

This last fall I was contacted by a girl I went to high school with about helping her decorate her home. I was a bit hesitant, as I’ve only decorated my own house before, but met with Abby and had a lot of fun going through her home: giving suggestions and thoughts on what she had done to this point and where we could take things from there.
It’s really been a wonderful partnership. We take turns texting each other things we find and I love getting updates from her about where things are going. Abby and her husband both work from home, and the room she uses as an office was definitely a priority, but we had yet to really make the space something she would enjoy working in. Between work travel and the holidays, we had gotten out of touch for a while, but her husband contacted me at the beginning of the year wondering if I would be up for finishing off the space as a surprise for her: a completely sweet gesture that I was thrilled to be a part of.
This is what the space looked like when I first met with Abby. She wanted it to feel brighter, but had recently painted the walls, so we thought painting the furniture would help a lot.
Abby bought a great chair and side table, along with a pillow, rug, and a few accessories, but the room had been at a standstill for a while. I knew a handful of pieces, some plants, and styling of the things she already had would do a lot for the space.
Abby is a proud MU alum. She had an MU snow globe on the bookcase when I came to meet with Erik, but I was trying to think of a nod to her alma mater without being so literal. A big, brass tiger seemed appropriate. A quick Etsy search, and I found the handsome guy in this shop (I ordered on a Tuesday afternoon and it arrived that Thursday!).
For work, Abby needs multiple monitors, and they were all you saw when you looked at her desk area. Adding some standout, statement art helps draw your eye away from the screens and the size of the art makes the monitors seem smaller.
I was a little concerned about purchasing the art without Abby’s approval (art is just so personal) but her husband, Erik, was sure she would like whatever I picked out. I was really pleased to hear she loved it.
Replacing the dated light fixture made a big difference. I found this light at Home Depot for $49 and painted it using some gold enamel paint, complimenting the side table. The result is pretty and simple.
I’m always amazed at what just a few changes can do for a space. I like how personal and inviting the room feels now.
And I’m glad Abby doesn’t have to look to the left for a great view anymore (those bay windows are pretty great), but she now has something to enjoy right in front of her.
What is your go-to item for refreshing a space?
