  • Guess I was wrong about price.. it’s $850 but it’s the Toto S550e. Bought it two years ago and haven’t regretted it at all. I’m actually going to have an electrician come out to install plugs in the other bathrooms to put bidets in all of them.

    The one I have now also sprays the front area for the ladies to I can’t comment on that but might be why it’s so expensive.

    The seat heats, the water is warm that sprays, auto open… pretty much all you need. I will say that as a dude on the taller side (6’ 2”), I really have to scoot my ass forward quite a bit so I’d probably find something else for my next bidet.

  • I’m sitting on a fine $700 one right now and it’s heaven. My real office.

  • Yeah it was generated, and you are right. I’m not sure how to format stuff to show it’s AI generated so I just use the quotes.

  • Samsung Lawsuits: Apple’s series of lawsuits against Samsung over alleged patent infringements related to smartphone and tablet designs and functionalities have been seen by some as overly aggressive. These lawsuits have led to significant financial penalties for Samsung and have been viewed as attempts to stifle competition rather than protect genuine innovations.

    App Store Patents: Apple has been known to enforce its patents related to the App Store, targeting other companies that have tried to create similar platforms. This has sometimes been criticized as an attempt to maintain a monopoly over app distribution for iOS devices.

    HTC Lawsuit: In 2010, Apple filed a lawsuit against HTC for allegedly infringing on 20 Apple patents related to the iPhone’s user interface and underlying architecture. Some viewed this as an aggressive move to slow down the growth of Android devices.

    Patent Assertions Against Smaller Companies: There have been instances where Apple has asserted its patents against smaller companies or startups. Critics argue that these actions can stifle innovation and competition, as smaller companies often lack the resources to fight prolonged legal battles against a giant like Apple.

  • Oh, apologies for not ascending to the lofty heights of your humor. We mere mortals sometimes need a moment to appreciate such esoteric wit.

  • Ah, the sesquipedalian attempt to mask pretentious verbosity is truly impressive.

  • He’s also a bouncer at a gay club so I’m pretty sure he’s okay with gay people

    I’m not really concerned how you feel about him based off of one or two comments I’ve made poking fun at him. I’ve known him for 25 years so I’m pretty sure I know who he is. Right now he’s a bit brainwashed by Tim Pool. If everyone just cut off their Republican friends then they would become even more insular and I’m not sure if that’s a good thing.

  • Once Trump is gone the spell will be lifted, maybe

  • He actually doesn’t have any problem with gay people. I know this because my brother is gay.

    His main schtick with trans people is that he thinks kids shouldn’t be allowed to undergo surgery since their minds aren’t fully developed.

    He is a big Tim Pool fan and I have a feeling that a lot of his bullshit is just echoing the beanie man.

  • Opossums eat more ticks around where I live than anything. I’m in Virginia so we have all the shitty deer ticks with Lymes. It’s a big problem.

    I imagine anyone living where mosquitoes have malaria or any of the other crappy viruses wouldn’t mind them being extinct.

  • Here in Virginia, right outside of DC, and the ticks just give everyone Lymes. They are absolutely fucking everywhere too and it gets worse each year.

  • Sounds like it could be the name of a Hobbit. But no, never heard the word used before. I’m from Georgia and live in Virginia. Never been to a mountain wetland or to middle earth

  • We can go settle this in the parking lot

  • I’m in my early 40s and politics wasn’t a thing we really talked about much until Trump came around. Now it’s a shit show. I’ve even voted Republican several times before although not for a decade at this point now.

  • My republican friend would suggest that you should have trans folk read to them and then they’ll turn gay. No way to reproduce then.

  • Had to ask ChatGPT what relies on ticks and mosquitoes to survive

    Species that Rely on Ticks:

    Borrelia burgdorferi: The bacterium that causes Lyme disease, which relies on Ixodes ticks (deer ticks) for transmission.

    Rickettsia rickettsii: The causative agent of Rocky Mountain spotted fever, transmitted by various tick species.

    Babesia: Various species of Babesia rely on ticks for transmission to vertebrate hosts, causing babesiosis.

    Species that Rely on Mosquitoes:

    Dengue virus: Relies on Aedes mosquitoes (especially Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus) for transmission.

    Zika virus: Also transmitted primarily by Aedes mosquitoes.

    West Nile virus: Transmitted by several species of Culex mosquitoes.

    Malaria parasite(Plasmodium spp.): The Plasmodium parasites, such as Plasmodium falciparum, rely on Anopheles mosquitoes for part of their life cycle.

    Wuchereria bancrofti: The causative agent of lymphatic filariasis, transmitted by Culex, Anopheles, and Aedes mosquitoes.

    Brugia malayi: Another filarial nematode causing lymphatic filariasis, primarily transmitted by Mansonia and Anopheles mosquitoes.

  • I am an audiophile with thousands worth of gear. As far as streaming services go, I find Apple to offer the best bang for the buck. The second best would be probably YouTube. Tidal was unique years ago with hires lossless but that’s not uncommon anymore. Apple offers it as standard. Apple and YouTube also offer music videos which is a nice perk.

  • Most shitty companies do it with stock buybacks
