I'd rather my taxes go to public services than being diluted into the pockets of middle-men. Publishers are still be valuable, but they have to adapt like everyone else. Education, healthcare, and information... sounds like a recipe for too much equality; better to stomp that out and continue forth, like the term "future" doesn't exist for everyone

Why would I want change when I'm finally getting the hang of things? That sounds difficult and scary, and I might have to adjust my lifestyle... and for what? Other people!? Morals!? Justice!? We already have those, otherwise I would've never made it to where I am today... backslash-fucking-s

If democracy wasn't constantly undermined by greed, we might actually solve real problems. But problems are too far in the future for me, when I'll no longer be alive to care. Continue status-quo than, nothing we can do

I did have to shave some of the plastic from mine to get the toilet lid to close naturally. Not the same situation, but they do on occasion, require a little creativity

Well you can't really beat a shower after pooping, that's true. But I don't always poop just once a day, or necessarily shower every day of the week...so it'd be a pretty large waste of water/time for me to do that, personally.

If you shower after pooping, what do you do when pooping away from home? In that case, washing your butthole with water from the sink and then cleaning your hands/arms would be more efficient. You may need to loosen your butthole and expand your anal conceptions?

It is hands free wiping, but with a spray nozzle. When I wiped with only TP, the chances of getting poop on my wrist/hand was much greater. Now it's virtually none, and feels cleaner when you're walking around later

Away from home without a bidet... it's the worst lol. My last stent was 3 months away from home, and felt like taking a step backwards in life

You speak truth that most are afraid to admit. My butthole is clean though and my hemorrhoid much more tame since forgoing the rough paper wiping. Also, it can help speed up the "endless poop" feelings that can happen on a bad stomach day, cause you know you're empty (for now)

People rep bidets all the time, but I don't see many repping the detailed nuances of why the're the shit

I originally got one as a self defense tool (though the bevel is 'supposed to be' for breaking a window, like if you're trapped in a car). Whatever's clever lol

Thankfully I never have had to use it for defense or survival, but I'll be damned it I don't use it for almost any reason at all, just because "I can't see that great, I need LIGHT!"

I originally got a small, very bright flashlight, as a form of self-defense (the area I live in isn't the greatest, so you have to be a little more aware). I have several different self-defense options, but the palm-sized flashlight has become one of my favorites... and not just because of self-defense

Yeah, it can blind the hell outta someone and stun them from the sheer 'holy fuck, that burns my eyes', but it became most useful simply because I had it on me all the time.

A cellphone light soon became frustratingly clunky and I still couldn't see that great, when I just needed a quick light. It's an S.O.S, it's a defense tool, it's small and way more effective than a cellphone light... I never thought I would use it as much as I do, but it just became that way because it was almost always on me.

Now I have a little keychain light for the things I would normally pull my cellphone out for, and my pocket flashlight for everything else.

Jumping a car battery on a dark highway?... fuck a cellphone, I want to see everything and for everyone to see me as well (from a distance), so I don't get run over by someone not paying attention

You try to approach me with a weapon?...BLAM, blinded by the strobe light as I make a run for it, and you try to see again

Is that an opossum/skunk/racoon rustling from nearby? POW, power beam activates so I can see the bushes down the block. If it's closer to me, it's also temporarily blinded

Long story short: I hardly used a flashlight either, before I started carrying one for defensive purposes. Now I use it for a LOT of little reasons, and hate not being able to see (very well) because a light isn't bright enough.

It also has a bevel to break a window (like if you're trapped in a car)? But I've (thankfully) never had to use it except for, "I need a flashlight quick". It seems weird, but I understood it once I started carrying it

It's pretty sweet, ngl

Or my S.O can be playing on our playstation, while I'm playing our switch. Both of our gaming has significantly changed (decreased) with age, but the switch really helped us get back into it... it was a convenience thing. Now I've been eyeing the steamdeck, cause that's what I've honestly been wanting, but didn't known it was so viable. I'll always love gaming, but there's certainly been adjustments to time constraints. Now, gaming seems to be adjusting as well, to the changes in life experiences. I'm all for it

I fit this description. I'm not a pc gamer, but only due to life circumstances/comfortablility. I've known about the steam deck for a little while now, but didn't understand what I could do with it.

And now they're selling refurbished ones with a warranty? It's only a matter of time, but it's top of my wish list. My conspiracy-side wonders if lemmy communities have been shilling for it. My rational side doesn't really give a fuck, cause it looks like what I've been wanting without having to sit in front of a desktop, or carry around a gaming laptop.

My favorite system in a longtime has been the switch, due to changes in life and how I am able to play. But I'd really love to have that same portability/convenience, as well as more options.

I can't wait to get one lol, I can already see it's almost inevitable for me

I had trouble pulling into a parking spot when I first started driving, because I couldn't judge how close the front of my car was to the car's bumper next to me (as I turned in)

So I started backing-in because I could see everything with my mirrors and could maneuver more easily. I still prefer backing-in, depending on the situation

Well than there's something wrong with at least 2 of us

What a fresh sprog! Beautiful as always
