I like to replay The Last of Us (1) every couple of years - though it's always emotionally taxing.
Other than that I enjoy diving into Ultima 7 every here and then, though I tend to lose sight somewhere along the road, so technically speaking it doesn't fit the original post... but it's much fun/relaxing, following certain quest lines or just exploring.
Oh, Air Traffic Chaos on the DS is sometimes on the menu as well. Though I usually don't play it through, just some missions (i.e. airports and difficulties).
A44 Games’ Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn settled for an average critic score of 70/100 on Metacritic, but critics agree that it’s a promising new IP that’s worth trying.
An acclaimed 2019 PS4 game has received a free PS5 upgrade for existing owners as well as PS Plus Extra members. Stellaris: Console Edition‘s current-gen port offers 4K resolution and improved performance, among other features.
To clarify a bit, "missing link" is a series highlighting interesting and sometimes surprising, but in general not totally obvious, connections between technologies and/or society.
According to a recent leak, it seems the first three entries will receive native PS5 ports.
Life is Strange Remastered, Life is Strange: Before the Storm Remastered, and Life is Strange 2 Complete Season have all been rated by the ESRB for the PS5. Although the PS4 versions of these games are playable on the current-gen PlayStation console, these will be native ports for the PS5, which means they could potentially take advantage of the improved bells and whistles of the console.
Developed by Ironwood Studios and published by Kepler Interactive, Pacific Drive is currently 50% off on the PS Store. That brings its usual $29.99 price tag down to just $14.99. PS5 players will want to act fast if they want to take advantage of this deal. The offer ends on September 11 at 2:59 a.m. ET.
Daycare/Kindergarten is already free across the country for all children starting at 3 years old.
My information might be biased towards the greater Kanto area (Tokyo/Yokohama), but I'm not aware of anybody paying less then 20000 Yen (a little over $100 USD I guess) per month per child for a place in a public daycare (can be more than double, depending on the area/daycare, and much more for private ones).
It's much more complicated, though. You can receive various support money from the state/prefecture/city, but it's usually less than what you have to pay. And you're not guaranteed a place, and the waiting list cam be long (especially in highly populated areas in Tokyo).
Back in the day I did enjoy the O'Reilly Linux Administrator guide(s?). I don't know whether they have been updated, so they might be a little dated in parts - but the writing was highly enjoyable.
They what and what??
Generally the Omada-stack devices are just on-premises hardware that you control. If you enable automatic firmware updates, then yeah, "if they push a bad update" and all (similar to a Linux distro with auto updates enabled).
To improve operations, and enable certain features, there is the "cloud-based controller" software (appliance), which is named weirdly, because it generally does not live in the cloud - you can self-host on-premises, though its core software component is a black box and not (F)OSS (also available as an actual hardware appliance).
There have been instances of the devices "phoning home", though you might be able to limit that to some extent with firewall rules.
Just very quickly: the books are so much better than the show! I had to stop watching the show somewhere I think in season 2 - everything started digressing/simplifying too much from the books (the characters became flat and uninteresting etc.)
So yeah, I found the books much more enjoyable.

It's Unknown 9: Awakening, for $9,99 or so.
SuSE 1992 (1995?) (don't remember the exact number, but the year was on the accompanying paper manual), on some 1.3.xx Kernel, I think. Good times.
cereal, lol

Definitely Ultima, but possibly branching off from 7.
