  You’ve phrased this like a disagreement, but I don’t see how.

  Although maybe I’m just so jaded, that people providing interesting tangentially related trivia are perceived as being hostile unless they announce that as their intent, because usually unannounced trivia is leveled as an attack.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Low flow toilets⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Again, that doesn’t seem like it’d solve the problem I described better than a larger flush (or better design) would

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Low flow toilets⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That sounds like a great invention that my toilet unfortunately doesn’t have - and although I know how the mechanisms in my toilet work I’m unfortunately not enough of an experience to retrofit something like that in lol

  But it’s something I’ll keep an eye out for when I eventually buy a house, assuming that ever happens lol

  I wasn’t sure if you were satirically saying that trump would fix the issue, or you were accusing me of being a trump voter.

  I don’t live in the USA, so neither can be true, and I’m not familiar with the quote you’re talking about. Although I’m usually pretty familiar with his shenanigans.

  I’m complaining about my actual toilet which seems to use just too little water to completely flush everything, ironically wasting water.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Low flow toilets⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My toilet is newer than that (and also I don’t live in the USA), so idk what to tell you.
  It could just be a poor toilet (I didn’t buy it), or a plumbing issue (I live in an apartment), but if I flush once then stuff comes back up, and simply using more water fixes it so i assume it’s a flow issue

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Low flow toilets⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  What mechanism?
  I know how to fix the stuff in the tank, and that’s all working properly afaict.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Low flow toilets⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t understand how a hose would fix the issue better than flushing. They’re both using water.

  Once I get a house and can buy my own toilet, I’ma get a bidet… But I’m not fucking with the plumbing of an apartment. And I don’t see how that’d solve this specific issue.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Low flow toilets⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My apartment building is 15 years old, so about that old.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Low flow toilets⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly this might not be low flow, it could just be poor design. Or like you said, a plumbing problem.

  Even when it doesn’t get clogged (which it often does), stuff will often come back up if I don’t flush twice. Since more water seemed to be the solution, I assumed the problem was low flow.

  I live in an apartment, I didn’t get to choose 😔

  I can’t tell if this is an accusation or satire

  I’m not really convinced that file compression was “mature” at the time. Text compression was reasonable progressed but image compression was created for a reason besides just a requirement for fixed compression ratio.

  But I do agree that it was limited in it’s usefulness.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨this post is just 42kib⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  What do you mean “at the time”?
  What time are you talking about?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨this post is just 42kib⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Dithering is much older than jpeg.

  They used dithering in printed media, so it was transfered to digital media as a way to save on color depth, before jpeg got invented.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨this post is just 42kib⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Back when image compression was just reducing the resolution and color depth.
