Still looking for a snake that’s small enough. My normal goto, copper wire, is a challenge to use in small tubes as well.

You’re not wrong.
- Comment on [What if scenario] What if all commercial institutions suddenly decided they no longer intend to acknowledge religious events such as Christmas? 8 months ago:
I’ve noticed that seems to be happening, especially with companies like Amazon, whom I work for, aside from the money they can make from it. That said, we also have an example of that in the form of old Soviet Russia. They had actually eliminated most holidays.
- Comment on What if urine was reprocessed by large intestines? 8 months ago:
That is also something that I have wondered about, but that probably isn’t a thing because of salt buildup.
- Comment on What if urine was reprocessed by large intestines? 8 months ago:
That’s actually part of my question. The bowels also dump toxins overboard as well, but will they be enough to do the job?
- Comment on What if urine was reprocessed by large intestines? 8 months ago:
True, though as is, we still need to take in water due to a shortfall in what we do take in. That said, I’m also wondering if my proposal would also result in other waste products being recirculated and building up in the system, causing their own complications.

I can totally see that, though what if the body was able to adapt to the new configuration and keep the gut bacteria in its place, but the urine still flowed into the bowels for reprocessing? What else would the large intestines pick up aside from water and maybe salt?

Then you’d be right back where you started for my purposes, still losing moisture unnecessarily.

I think that’s called a bicycle.

A cloaca still has facilities for urine to be dumped overboard, doesn’t it? My proposal is to recirculate it before dumping it overboard dry.

Would you pay $20 for a Big Mac? …though they’ll probably automate the cooking and cashier positions, so they don’t have to pay an employee what I make as a robotics technician.
