Not sure why you got downvoted, but buy and download is key to GOG games

"Paint is not infrastructure" is a catchy tagline

I don't think they provide insurance, but I do think that's what the previous commenter was saying it'd ensure. You're most likely in agreement.

Gotta ask. Do you really think this community has a list of pornographic actresses names and automatically filters posts with them?

Aside from that, ChatGPT isn't a reliable source of information, and probably can't tell you much about another source's reliability... especially on a topic like this.

How does Auditory Processing Disorder do that?

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

Survival Kids is freakin' cool!

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!

how Microsoft couldn't afford to keep creating e-waste

23 years later, they seem to be affording it quite well! Haha

There are probably some you take for granted. It would be exhausting to be in constant awe at the wonders of the modern world! Haha

What is boy pre salting?

For context, Doug Ford has also been waging a war against bike lanes that are actively being used by cyclists.

There are problems with the speed cameras in certain areas of Ontario (stemming from problems with our road design), but Doug Ford is definitely doing this as a pro-driver move.

Which is why Ontario keeps voting him into a majority government...

Well, in a lot of Ontario, we don't really have traffic enforcement. People vandalize these cameras, and then we lose virtually all traffic enforcement.

I dunno, chatrooms serve a very different purpose than emails..

Update game

"Oh hey, the console doesn't need to update this time! And this 5-year old game is the one I just updated last month, and there hasn't been any news or anything about the game."

needs to update

"Wow, these minor bug fixes are (probably) amazing. Especially when it's 300MB!"

Gatekeeping food, of all things? Lol

I think you were talking about people who believe in not having kids, and the other commenter was talking about people who want to blow themselves up to prevent others from having kids.

"Trump narratives" contradict reality more often than not
