I would love it if it let me live/work in Shengen countries

The US has a ton of different plans with different disadvantages. All, with the exception of maybe some for government and military (but correct me if I'm wrong here), have deductibles that must be met and out-of-pocket expenses ("co-pays") for various things. This means that people pay their insurance premiums on top of out-of-pocket expense for everything. The overall cost of things in the US is much higher than many other countries as well. Which plans are offered also depend a lot on many factors. I've been out of the US for too long to go much into depth on that.

You assume people are eating so close to bedtime. I last eat 4-6 hours before bed. You also presuppose that the meal that has dessert is the one right before sleep, which may not be true in some or all cases.

Additionally, generally younger and healthier people are less impacted by healthcare prices. Since I moved to Japan, people will go to the doc to get diagnosis and treatment for a cold. In the US, I would avoid the doctor unless I thought it was serious, especially since over-the-counter meds were so cheap in the US. In Japan, the clinic route is often cheaper than self-diagnosing and going to the drugstore, but I still don't go to the doc if I think I just have a cold that's lasting a couple of days.

Metric all of the things. I haven't lived in the US for over a decade now, but spent the first ~30 years of my life there.

No. If I have problems with a creator, publisher, etc., I'll stop consuming. If I previously purchased and own some work (i.e. an album from a band that turns out to be shitty), I will still sometimes engage with that, but no new money is going to them.

I think Link to the Pastis still my favorite Zelda, probably followed by the original. My former roommate was definitely all about OOT and why I tried to play through it back then

We're in a prime area to see it. As such, it will be cloudy and moving between rain, sleet, and snow (we're not sure which yet) at ~17:44 local time when it comes over.

Zelda OOT. The controls, especially when first using the slingshot and such, with the camera just sucked. I never got far with that after I finally tried it in my mid-/late-20s. It's one of those I found much more enjoyable watching someone else do.

Played Goldeneye for the first time at a barcade in my early 30s and I didn't really enjoy that much.

As I think about it, anything on N64 and maybe Gamecube that I would try once I had time and money later in life just were not great. I had been playing better PC games, even in the same years, and have zero nostalgia for it which probably doesn't help.

This autoplays for anyone else who doesn't want to be jumpscared :/

Hundreds of units of whatever description sounds like a much better place for it than my house.

I moved to Japan a decade ago and there are not time changes (though I'd argue that, at least for eastern Japan, we're in the wrong timezone). It is much easier on my body not making that change twice a year. I have a really sensitive sleep schedule so this is very important to me.
