I've played somewhere around 1500 hours across multiple systems. There's really nothing else quite like it.

My biggest use case for the deck is to be able to keep playing the same games as I do on my main gaming PC when I go on vacation. This was really put to the test with Cyberpunk 2077 and it worked shockingly well.

That said... it's definitely not ideal, and it's generally relegated to similar games like you're talking about. Peglin, Celeste, etc

Seriously. I bought new jeans two weeks ago. I went to multiple different stores. My choices were skinny jeans, a different brand of skinny jeans, or a different brand with a different style of skinny jeans.

One of my first jobs involved covering hundreds of miles for on-site tech support. Pre smartphone.

The best thing about printed turn by turn directions is that if you miss a turn, you're pretty much screwed. They were occasionally wrong as well, listing streets that didn't exist etc.

I'd generally have a backup map as well just in case.

My 'smart' LG washer/dryer plays a jaunty little tune when done. Even on max volume it's difficult to hear. I miss my old dumb machines.

Buying the individual albums is still an option. The benefit of renting through Spotify (or any similar service) is that it's dramatically cheaper than owning the same amount of music.

Just move to Turkey. Start a new job. Find the love of your life. Get married. Have kids. Grow old together, and support your children as they age in to adulthood. Spend your golden years relaxing. Maybe visit some beaches.

Oh yeah, and I guess use your Turkish payment method at some point in there too. I'm guessing at some point in there you got like a credit card or something

I don't think so?

The frequency I see ads is very very low. And when they do it's just a single card

Yeah it's from adguard DNS.

Ads just show up semi frequently. Definitely visible but not obtrusive. Just keep scrolling.

You should still see the frequency with adguard. It's just a blank area where normally there'd be an ad.

I paid to remove ads from Reddit Sync in 2014. 9 years went by where I continued to use the app every single day, as ljdawson continued regular improvements and updates (aside from the incident). By the time Reddit Sync went away, I felt I had vastly underpaid for what I got, and purchased lifetime Ultra as a way of supporting ljdawson.

I totally get what you're saying. But at the same time, Sync is so much more than just the content that it displays. The ads are not there to profit on free content, they're there to support the user experience that sync provides. They're also far, far less obtrusive than typical ads

The nice thing is, there's choices! Feel free to use other clients and find what works best

Ah interesting. I too have instituted a flex time Friday.

So far my company hasn't seemed to notice

Completely agree. I had experiences in Alyx that were unique to any other game I've ever played. Things that are just not possible outside of VR.
