More recent games have difficulty settings in the options.

Not just that, they're difficulty settings that can be changed mid game.

I generally play on Hard, simply because my baseline for gaming is decent enough, and I do like the challenge, but then there's always that one boss I'll spend a day or two on before saying screw it, turn difficulty to Normal/Medium, and typically just beat the boss in one go.

Honestly, I like that more than cheat codes. Cheat codes are often too heavy handed, I prefer the ability to go "ok, I care, but I don't care that much" and beat the boss as intended.

What's the most common problem, other than people (hah), that you've seen systems have?

Current theory is deficit, either quantity or variant, of the Cytochrome P450 &/ CYP2C9 enzymes in your liver.

Which is more frustrating in processing in all: Urban wash off or Rural wash off?

I imagine that the city's got a crazier mix of stuff, but I had a brief stint at my county's water department where I worked on a project recalculating water inflow to the city drainage from the surrounding county, so I also kind of know just how much water that can be.
