Hi guys! So, yeah…Which games are good for a nice gaming session while on a flight? Last time I played one of the newer Tomb Raider games, and while performance was good, it decked (heh) the battery in less than 1h… So, while I like these too, if the flight doesn’t have a socket under the seat I might want to play games that don’t kill the battery immediately. What’s your best/most addictive Deck games? Also, after the whole big N mess…how’s the Switch emulation these days?

I haven’t been on a flight in 10 years that didn’t have an outlet or USB to plug into. You’ll probably be fine.

Ooook ya I guess I’m full of shit. Vietjet never had them that I can recall. I guess I just wasn’t thinking of short flights like that. My bad.

Which long flight have you flown that had them? I’ve flown a few over the last five years, and only one had USB. Air Canada, WestJet, RyanAir, Korean Air, and Aer Lingus didn’t have one, all for international flights that weren’t short.

IME most domestic flights and commuter flights don’t have them.

LOL no I won’t. I had this issue just last year on a flight from Indonesia I believe. Might have been Vietnam. There’s quite a few countries that might have not updated their planes with plugs. Hence the question.

Get a battery pack, and a flight with power plugs, they are much more common these days

I have a small 10,000mAh power bank too, but given some countries restrictions, I refuse to travel with anything bigger. Some picky countries will take away anything bigger than 10k mAh. I already lost a 15,000mAh and another 13,000mAh on this mistake. This power bank does provide some additional juice, but gets killed pretty fast.

I’ve been getting into Stardew Valley for the first time and it sips on battery power. I think I went almost 5 hours before charging, and that was with WiFi and Bluetooth enabled. I imagine it would go for at least an hour longer with airplane mode on.

Do you have any good guides or QuickStart videos for getting into OpenTTD? Or recommendations for curated and balanced mod packs?

Anything 2D… Or emulators for old (2D) consoles, or DosBOX…
