Thank you for your compassion and tact, Dylan.

No, it’s a product for people who want a substitute for super unhealthy convenience food. Instead of reaching for a pop tart, reach for the soylent bar. Is it as good as reaching for a carrot? Probably not, but it’s a LOT better than reaching for the pastry.

They really don’t... not even close.

While high end models come with heated air dryers, they’re not really effective, plus you don’t want to smell heated air with that distinctive heating coil scent that’s also been blowing in the toilet bowl and against your ass.

After it’s done washing just wait a few seconds to drip off some then use some TP to dab dry…

Will also let them do some marketing around the idea of movies available same day as their theatrical release.

I wonder if Netflix getting their films in theaters qualifies them for more awards.

Many models have mixers for the hot water line, and electric models like the Washlet (the world’s best selling bidet) heat the water on demand.

You keep going back to “rape jokes” but they really didn’t make a rape joke. Maybe you can clarify what you think of as rape jokes? Is there a punchline to a rape joke? It doesn’t sound like you’re distinguishing between making a light reference to something that has rape in it versus making fun of a rape victim.

These…

I think maybe you’re not familiar with the song that was referenced? It’s hardly a celebration of rape and the victim is not the punchline. It’s a catchy ditty that was huge in nerd culture and played in tech offices around the country. It was a bonafide hit and it made Antoine Dodson an internet celebrity for years…

There are also cancer jokes in pop culture and car crash jokes in pop culture and abortion jokes in pop culture and...

As a victim of rape myself, I think this person is being completely absurd. Granted, everyone’s experience and recovery is different, but if this is how she responds to the mildest of triggers, she is not ready to be in the workforce. I can’t help but suspect that what she perceives as a hostile workplace may really…

Replacing the Gammell illustrations is a travesty. Those illustrations MADE the books. They wouldn’t be icons of our childhoods without them.

So in general, American and Korean cars show the warning light when you have about 35+ miles left in the tank, and Japanese and German cars show it when you have about 60+ miles left in the tank.

Yet the examples they show are accidents caused by overly aggressive drivers (illegal pass on the shoulder and cutting across lanes without enough space between cars???), not slow left lane drivers. While slow left lane drivers are annoying, it seems obvious what the real problem is. Slow lefties have nothing on…

Redundant title is redundant.

I don’t think you’ve been following this launch closely. This is truly unique in terms of poor availability (and the multitude of other PR issues they’ve had on the road to availability).

The launch (er... launches, since this line has essentially “launched” three times already) has been a disaster for reasons beyond availability, though that’s certainly a major component (as well as how they’ve communicated said issue).

Bugs, multiple delays, a misrepresentative demo, confusing paper launches, the…

Nope. Bidets are awesome, and it’s shameful that America is one of the few countries (along with England) that has hangups about them. We invested in one of the heated Japanese ones 6 years ago and we’re still in the honeymoon phase.

Turns out at this stage you can’t actually delete the default apps - just hide them. A couple people with the beta have demonstrated that the files remain on the phone. You can “re-download” the “removed” apps while in Airplane mode.

It’s also possible this feature isn’t fully implemented yet, and while it is just…
