Yep, the video (or possibly the follow up video? don't remember) goes into this. I'm in a very hard water area, so we fill it, but you're right, it should depend on hardness.

Which incidentally, is another reason tablets suck.

    Posting this as a top level comment as well for visibility.

    The tablets are a scam.

    Ridiculously detailed video about them here.

    The TL;DW is: use powder over tablets, and fill both the main detergent section AND the prewash section (or just throw a little extra powder in loose)

    Also, run the hot water before turning it on

    this new The Sims game promises to stay true to what The Sims has always been

    The Sims 5 will be a free-to-play game.

    Uuuuuuh huh. I wouldn't touch anything EA with a 10 foot pole at this point.

    I'll wait for Paralives thanks.

    House flipper, The Sims, Planet Zoo/Planet coaster, Two Point Hospital/Campus, or anything in the creative management genre. Stardew Valley is good, and in the same vein, Graveyard Keeper.

    If you have a Switch, Animal Crossing

    If she likes Factorio, try Terra Nil maybe?

    Also, there's always minecraft in peaceful mode?

    Exactly this. It's a terrible, outdated story that essentially sells "staying together for the kids." The whole way through we were both like "ye these two need to get divorced." The book is a villain.

    Eta: game play was fun though
