Of course, you’d then be paying monthly enough to cover a water heater’s entire replacement in one year! Haha
They’re in the business of providing (expensive) peace of mind. Not the business of providing good value for money.

Ontario, Canada. They’re elsewhere in Canada, but seem most prevalent here
Thank you for sharing. I don’t have direct personal experience with a rental water heater – I was thrilled to find out the place I bought was built before it became the norm, and none of the prior owners got duped into getting a subscription.
Subscriptions suck. The only exceptions are if you literally have too much money to care. But most people don’t have the money to throw around like that.
Where I live, there are water heater rentals. It’s essentially a hardware subscription.
They’re garbage.
For something that needs minimal maintenance and will last at least 10 years, you can rent for the price that you’d break even if you had a new one installed every 5 years.
People will pay thousands of dollars to have the privilege of throwing out the water heater and getting out of the contract. And then pay to buy a new one they actually own.
But some people like it because, yes, if there’s a problem, they come and fix it for you. Or give you a brand new water heater. That you’ve already paid for two or three times over!
This isn’t using the meme effectively.
“Nobody wants to work anymore for you” would’ve been closer
I think the PSP versions have more content than the Pixel Remasters
She calls him “big bro”, and then calls him “mom and dad”

I definitely agree! There are a lot of other factors that should come into play. A corporation is more likely to focus on money. A smaller org would have more leeway to use human judgement.
I don’t get the skepticism. If you were deciding between two candidates of equal qualifications, and one asked for $65k, and one asked for $55k, and you chose the $55k one…what would you say to the $65k one?
I think the better question might be what series should you start from game 1, brcause thats a much tougher question.
Trails in the Sky.
2 picks up immediately after 1, and expects the player to already be proficient with the battle system from the start.
3 would be confusing and boring without having played the prior two games.
And yes, it’s a subseries, but still. Lol
4 is better if you want an old school fixed-class character-driven JRPG. But 9 and 10 do that in a more modern way.
6 is better if you want an old-school blank-slate character-driven JRPG. But 7 and 8 do that in a more modern way.
7, 8, 9, and 10 are all retro themselves though.
5 is great if you want an old-school “character class” JRPG. And if you want it to be character-focused, you’ve gotta look at something like 10-2.
Recommending specific games from the franchise really depends on what someone is looking for.
It’s just ASCII art, I think. One could make this manually in any OS, or have it be generated by an ASCII Art generator
I’m playing a Steam release of an old PC JRPG (Trails in the Sky) and it has the best feature ever…
A turbo button that doesn’t affect the sound of the game. Dialogue plays, music plays at the normal rate, no pitch shifting… it’s glorious.
I’d pay for any emulator that could support something like that for every game.
I recently replayed Legend of Dragoon, and I’d do it again.
I tried to play Golden Sun again though, and it just has WAY too much dialogue. And not in a good way. Just lots of filler dialogue that doesn’t add depth; it just restates the story and what’s currently going on.
I watch a lot of gaming content, but it’s mostly video essay or review style stuff. Maybe that’s what keeps my feed clean.
On YouTube, I don’t watch shorts at all though. And I’m vicious about telling it “Not Interested” when there’s something I don’t want in my feed.
Even better is a split screen video where the bottom half is someone playing Minecraft or some really simple platform game because people don’t have the attention span to learn some dumb fact without also watching some game on half of their screen.
I’ve never seen those in any of my feeds, thankfully. Probably because I tend to watch longer videos and…“original” videos (no overlayed people or other stuff)
Even worse is captions saying what happens. Like it’ll be a video of a baby trying to sit on a chair and missing and falling…and the caption will say “bro missed his chair”.
Why does a 7 second video need spoilers?
Being able to block screenshots is “supposed” to protect users from having malware take screenshots of banking apps and other such information.
If app developers were good, this could have been a good feature.
But I agree with OP. It still should be the user’s choice.
Harvest Moon is Temu Stardew Valley. I know Harvest Moon came first. Stardew Valley does literally everything better than Harvest Moon
