No ads or subscriptions, no endless DLC.
Unfortunately, if you’re looking for a free download, the game you’re describing doesn’t exist.
The closest I can think of is Postknight 2. There’s unobtrusive (optional) ads, and the full game is playable—start to finish—without spending any money.
It’s very cute, and you can get pets… but it’ll take some dedicated playtime to unlock them for free.
As somebody who once worked at an ISP: they absolutely do that, and it isn’t illegal. In fact, ISP’s host many of Ookla’s speedtest servers. The less infrastructure your test needs to go through, the better the results will be—there’s nothing faster than a network that’s communicating with itself.
I am sorry. You need help that we cannot give on a message board. You need to find a trusted person you can tell your story to. You should ask them for help.
Good luck.
Sometimes I’m a put things on the fries fella, sometimes I’m a dippin’ boy. There’s no bad answer—only good fries!
You seem to be very intentionally dodging the question everybody in this discussion has been asking: Why are you, an adult, being taken care of by a family member?
Aside from very literally answering the question by saying, “Well my sister is taking care of me because Mom is gone,” you haven’t addressed the subtext of that question: why do you need taking care of at all? Do you have some form of condition that requires you to have a caregiver as an adult?
Please make careful note of sentences I have written that end in question marks (“?”)—those answers are important.
Turkey would have actually gotten a shiny platinum medal if there were no ffffffeeeeeeemales on the team.
I caught my kids to throw light switch raves, but they don’t know the context. It’s spread to their friends, also context-less.
But really, I don’t think anything can top that one email where Compy gets Old Yellered.
But NATO did start the simple and delicious vanilla cupcake recipe…
I don’t hate Google.
I despise them. I loathe them. Common transitive verbs like hate don’t encompass the depth and breadth of my disdain for Google.
If you want to give a gift that’s simultaneously very thoughtful AND a very shitty gift: buy him a pair of knee pads. Refuse to elaborate on why you bought them.
I wear tankies when it is hot out.
Web 3.0 is, more or less, what timeshares were to our predecessors. Here’s a thing you can theoretically use, but in practice, it’s useless and just cons you out of a ton of cash. And the theoretical thing will never actually exist.
Short answer: No.
Long answer: Your laptop desires are common, but unprofitable. Even if manufacturers charged twice as much for them, they’d lose out in the long run. Because you wouldn’t need to buy a new one every three years.
It’s the same problem that mobile phones have. Year after year, the number one complaint in consumer surveys is: “I want longer battery life!” It’s been like that for 20 years now. You’re never gonna see it. The battery having a short daily life—as well as a short lifecycle (before you have to bin the device because the battery isn’t replaceable)—is an intentional design choice. It ensures you keep buying The Coolest New Thing every few years. That’s money in the bank, baby!
Nope this is a real cybertruck.
If you didn’t play EverQuest with Roger Wilco, don’t even talk to me about voice chat.
I really wish they’d pick a better name. Ableism aside, it’s just a terrible name.
Ages ago, I won a bet that I would get carded at the pub if I shaved, even if I was wearing an expensive suit. I was 35 at the time.
“What did you do this weekend?”
“I went to the second, secret Burning Man where they immolate an actual man.”
