This was basically the length and quality of a 60 Minutes segment. I’m glad someone is doing good video journalism in the US. It’s a format that has been dying over the past few decades, and now the remaining institutions are under attack in the states.

Seems like a good use of a 14min to me. More Perfect wasn’t burying the lead in this video at all.
- Comment on Toilet Time 2 days ago:
I have that exact same Toto toilet tank in the states.
Buttons are more common on dual flush toilets. One button is for a small flush, the other button (or both pressed at once) is a larger flush. These toilets are pretty common in parts of the world where water is in short supply and or expensive.
Lever based dual flush systems also exist, but they’re usually less common. You push for one type of flush and pull for the other.
That said, my folks have old push button toilets from the late 70’s. They’re single flush, and the button is side mounted. The buttons were just cool for the sake of cool, and lots of American plumping supply places still sell new parts for these toilets.
TL;DR: they exist in the US, but you’ll see a lot more out in the dry ass west.

Re that sagging flush button.
It’s a 2 second fix. Under the lid there is a little white plastic bar with threaded nut. Turn the nut to raise the bar and raise that button.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it was pro bono.
She charged Disney tens of millions for those marvel movies, but she only got like $35k for filming asteroid city in Spain, which was probably enough to cover a few months of international travel and lodging for a celeb. She likes Wes Anderson and was more interested in working with him than making money.

I mean, you can do it, but if you have steak that feels like jerky after 30 min in the over, you just likely just created overcooked steak.
Oven jerky takes many hours and you should occasionally open and remove the escaping moisture.
- Comment on Inflation markers 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, most of the oven recipes I’m familiar with are several hours at fairly low heat. You’re trying to dehydrate the meat, not bake it.
- Comment on Inflation markers 2 weeks ago:
Only 30min?
You sure you’re not just eating poorly cooked steak?

- Comment on Why Europe Failed to Dominate Tech 21:26 3 weeks ago:
TL;DR: regulations.
It’s hard to quickly get capital and quickly scale a business. The EU is a market that companies expand into once they can staff legal and product teams that can focus on the complex of the EU.

- Comment on How I Broke up with Adobe 3 weeks ago:
It can happen if the tool offers a clear productivity boost.
It can also happen if the competing product does what Figma did. Clone your competitors layout, keyboard commands, workflows, then just add on a bunch of cool new toys.
- Comment on How I Broke up with Adobe 3 weeks ago:
Depends on what do you for a living and what the alternative tool is. If you’re a professional creative that is working in a larger creative team, it’s hard to break free because of workflows, compatibility with oddball features, or you’ve hired people who are know how to fly at warp speed in CS, but are going to slow way down when they have to build muscle memory for a new tool. .
