The original Peggle. There's a free APK available on speedrun.com. Works flawlessly even on modern Android.

That's just a charity...

I took up online tutoring and teaching programming for kids. It has great benefits:

  • It's an hour or so after work, it has a fixed schedule so it forces me to clock out
  • it makes me focus hard so I completely forget about work
  • it pays for itself (not my corporate day-job rate, but I'm not doing it for free)
  • I can try out languages and tech I'd normally wouldn't be able to in my day job, or I'd have to invest my free time for a side project
  • I have a background in teaching... I like it, it's fun and refreshing
  • I've helped many kids jump start their interest in programming even in families that know nothing about tech at all. I've helped a few of them to get accepted to the school they wanted to and pursue a career in programming

All in all, teaching after work makes for a great hobby and a strong barrier for my day job so I don't find myself working late anymore.

You know you can configure to not autoskip those segments, right? You can always skip manually, if it's that kind of video.

I'm gonna just leave this link to the official speedrun.com asset page that may or may not have a freely available Android APK of the original Peggle Deluxe that works on modern devices.

Why not use winget or chocolatey instead? They allow for auto updates and have much wider library. Winget can even pull from msstore if necessary. There's even a convenient WingetUI that consolidates them and others (winget, choco, scoop, npm, .net, pip, etc.) to a single app manager.

It was a Bored Ape event "ApeFest' in November. They used harmful UV bulbs instead of regular black light for decoration.
