I’ve never used your $20 Luxe bidet to know the difference, but I’m going to assume it doesn’t have a heated seat, heated water, variable pressure settings, massage settings, and an enema setting. If those features don’t interest you, then nothing at all makes it better. Use what you like. My wife just really loves the heated seat in the winter time.
I own a BioBidet 2000. My friend Brian has one at his house and he convinced me to just try it. I did. And then I ordered one for myself before I left the bathroom.
Had a woodshop teacher steal my dad’s hat exactly like this.
When Sync stopped working on Reddit, I found kbin and Lemmy, and haven’t looked back. Especially with Sync being on Lemmy. Reddit isn’t worth the agitation anymore.
Great selection
Came here to suggest this.
Yeah, some elements of Snow Crash have definitely not aged well. The pervy sex scenes with the underaged girl have definitely outlived their welcome. Stephenson has certainly come a long way as a writer since he wrote this.
I really need to read the Expanse series! I loved the show, and I’ve heard the books are significantly better.
If you’re gonna check out Gibson’s Neuromancer, maybe check out Neal Stephenson’s Snow Crash. Both are foundational cyberpunk.
Edit: Also, Project Hail Mary is one of my favorite novels. Can’t gush enough about that one. Reminded me a lot of Greg Bear’s Eon.
Lemmy.blahaj.zone, startrek.website, sh.itjust.works are all good.
It’s definitely a very narrow colloquialism you hear in New England. Honestly, I think it may be specific to the Seacoast Region of Maine, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts.
It’s used in the same context as “bastard”, but solely as a term of endearment.
“What’s up, dubba?”
Dubba. Mostly cuz I haven’t lived in New England for over 20 years.
Have you read Russian news in the past decade? Defenestration is the preferred method of retirement in the Ruzzian government.
The issue with that line of thinking is that it is either ignorant of or deliberately ignores the fact that Reddit actively undermines your ability to build community as you see fit. They don’t view subreddits as communities, they view them as commodities, and their users are unpaid content producers that they are happy to steamroll over the moment your “contributions” don’t exceed any impediments to monetization you may be causing.
Reddit is no longer an actually communal space. It’s a virtual sweatshop for online content so Reddit Inc can monetize ads ads ads all over.
It’s time to make some bruises, it’s time to make some welts. It’s time to get things started as I’m taking off my belt.
