Duh, of course you can walk on stars. You just have to go there at night.

Yes, but will they sell replacement cases with USB-C for existing users. Ideally for less than it costs to buy an entirely new pair of buds with the C case.

90% of the experience is great. 10% of the experience is wondering why anyone sane would choose the UI or functionality as the default method and not provide any way to alter it. If you're someone who wastes time on setting up your UI just the way you like it, consider it a bonus that you get that time back.

Oh, and if you get an LTE AppleWatch to go with it, the watch will occasionally "forget" that it has a plan and silently switch to bluetooth only - and can't be re-enabled on the LTE network without the phone. Not that I'm bitter about that time it happened when I didn't have my phone and I got stranded.

I mean, free is free. If I'm willing to bend over for Epic to get free games, Gog doesn't seem like a stretch.

You seem to have quite the fan club, yourself. You must be very good at this!

I agree - the two posters above have very, very good points!

I'm so annoyed by the vacuuming patterns in the rug I'm not even worried about the mirrors.

My steam deck and Shockz (open ear/bone conduction) headphones are how I stay "connected" to the family when I'm gaming. We can all be in the same room and chat, which is nice.

It's in the entertainment room. As with all modern, suburbanite, gen-xers I have converted a 15'x20' portion of the basement to a room for entertainment. The gaming rig is in a "quiet" case that looks like stereo equipment, but I've got a WheelStandPro that slides out to the love seat area when it's not parked under the desk. It's got some game storage cabinetry, desk area, dart board in an awkward, improperly laid out area, arcade machine, projector with 10' automatic screen, smaller 55" flat screen, 7.1 sound, built in bookshelves/DVD storage (which is never used as we have a Plex server), a couple of love seats, and an adjacent alcove with a 6 flavor soda fountain, superauto espresso machine (my normal espresso maker died and I couldn't be bothered), liquor cabinet, beer/drink fridge, and mini-kitchen (dw, microwave, ice maker, sink).

In a good week I get a solid 30-40 minutes of gaming in. Usually on my steam deck. Sitting on the living room couch.

I feel like this number might be true for nearly every drone produced in the world. Except China. 67% of their imports probably aren’t Chinese.

kinda neat

Climate debate over folks. "Kinda neat" trumps destroying the environment every day of the week. If they were just "sorta neat" or "not really neat" we could ban them, but putting a few hundre metric tons of plastics into the waste stream is a reasonable tradeoff when you're at the level of "kinda neat".

I kid, of course...kinda.
