Not as cool as the Fondue tram!
The "up to" makes this particularly depressing. And realistic.

Wouldn't it make sense to minimize that disadvantage then? There will always be people who have no other choice but rent, so they should be protected from exploitation. And stronger renter protection could cool down the housing market, because it makes being a landlord work multiple properties less attractive. Win-win if you ask me.
Renting by itself would be fine, it's just that there's barely any rent control in North America, and you're constantly at the mercy of your landlord, inflation and general greed. Put national standards for renter protection and rent increases in place and this would be much less of a problem.
They did it for both Dune movies where I went.
Going to the cinema to see a movie, and they show a trailer FOR THAT EXACT MOVIE.
(Although that doesn't really fit the prompt. Still annoys me a lot though)
Invulnerability AND all the guns? Sign me up!
Miles Tek does that in the later books, IIRC. strap a lasgun to a shield generator, instant pseudo nuclear bomb.
Edit: I guess the difference is that they are dropping the whole package, not just the lasgun.
