I don’t really care about my “social credit score”. It’s an honest question and I’ve learned a couple things about bidets so far. The overwhelming conclusion, however, is that a lot of proud bidet users are kind of elitist assholes (heh, puns), and would rather admonish condescendingly than care to explain. Goes to show you really need a parent or a family member to properly teach you these things. If no one in your family has ever used a bidet, then I guess you’re shit out of luck (heh).

Either that or the guy saying they’re overrated was on to something and everyone’s getting defensive and pissy (heh) about it. If your method was truly better, you could just explain it without resorting to shame tactics. Could be something they’re embarrassed about?

Toilet paper comes apart when it gets sopping wet, dumbass.

(I assume you prefer communicating in a derogatory style, so I’ll just mimick yours.)

The “poop encrusted ass” remark suggests you don’t actually know how toilet paper works or how to use it.

TP is supposed to dissolve in water, that’s why we can flush it.

But if you’re washing with a bidet, how do you know you’re clean if you’re just spraying your shit with water then just patting it with TP? Do you wash it with your hands when spraying water?

Do you shit while in the shower or something?

It’s the Wild West days of AI, just like the internet in the 90s. Do what you can with it now, because it’ll eventually turn into a marketing platform. You’ll get a handy free AI model that occasionally tries to convince you to buy stuff. The paid premium models will start doing it too.

Yes, I know and I agree. Again, I was being facetious in response to the question.

I’m sorry, I didn’t really care enough about the guy to look. I was just being facetious in response to the question.

I wouldn’t hold it against them. You and I are in a place where we know the value in looking this stuff up, and we know the industry. There are a lot more people out there who don’t, and others who still haven’t made the mistake they need to in order to learn it.

Not be convicted of rape, most likely.

Nobody says it, but Trump literally stole the election. He did it by having his goons involved with every step of the process, scrutinizing workers until they quit, challenging confidence in the mail-in voting system, removing mail-in ballot boxes, reducing the number of voting stations, and of course the gerrymandering already in place. There’s probably more. It was a landslide victory for people who didn’t vote, and I think that had as much, if not more, to do with access than disinterest. Trump won by a narrow margin among those leftover. He would not have won otherwise.

I keep a pack of wet wipes with me every time I travel. I never use them in the toilet, though. Just for cleaning my hands when eating street food.

I’ll preface my comment with the fact that I never saw a bidet until I was in my 30s, so I was never properly “bidet trained”, but I can tell you that at a glance the prospect of having a damp ass after every shit does not appeal to me. Particularly in humid regions where damp bodily areas leads chafing and rashes. It also looks like a lot more effort than just wiping and moving on with minimal difference in results.

That said, if you prefer bidets and have access to them, more power to you.

New in Copilot: QA testing functionality!

I don’t personally know anyone on game pass, and only one with Nintendo online, so that seems accurate. But it doesn’t matter. Releasing AAA games day one on a subscription model isn’t sustainable for Microsoft or the studios participating. Those prices will go up and the service will enshitify.

Steam, the cheapest I see it as is 79,99€ where I am, which is actually US$90. I just assumed the US store did a straight numeral conversion to dollars, but you’re getting a discount too, it seems.

1. It’s $80
2. It’s on Gamespass, where I assume a lot of doom fans who might have otherwise purchased are likely to be.
3. It’s shouldered up against Expedition 33 and Oblivion Remake, both over $20 cheaper and highly acclaimed.
4. It’s $80
5. (Edit) shitty DRM

During the pandemic? Wasn’t PS plus at around 40m at that time? Xbox live at 90m? Netflix at 180m?

Hadn’t thought of it like that. I wish I could at least donate my digital library, though.

My friend, this is why Lemmy exists.
