I don’t know, but my dad definitely didn’t want to explain this scene to me when I was a kid.

They should.

I’ve wondered in the past why, for example, 1000 kilometers are still referred to as kilometers.

I tried to buy an external 20TB drive from Amazon twice. First one that came, I bought refurbished; the drive had been shucked and replaced with a 146GB drive.

Second one I bought was 20TB, but was clicking and grinding from the moment I turned it on. When I tried to initiate a return saying “drive is clicking and grinding, indicating that it’s failing,” their support bot helpful informed me that a clicking and grinding drive usually indicated drive failure.

They did accept the return for the latter. They also accepted a return for the former, but it took literal months and several support interactions where the (seemingly real) agents actively lied to me.

I’ve had okay luck with smaller Amazon drives in the past, but will have trouble recommending them for this kind of purchase in the future.

Ah, on zooming out, that makes sense. It’s been a while since I watched that. Thanks for the information!

I don’t think I ever experienced that, but it sounds fascinating.

Made a website with no real info, because what could i tell the world als a 12-15 year old.

I’m in the same situation at almost forty.

That’s fair. Apologies for misinterpreting your joke.

This isn’t what I would think of as a dad joke, but I am a dad and was making a joke … And it is a joke that primarily old people would enjoy … So I acknowledge your point.

I don’t think that’s correct, other than maybe technically (yes, the best kind). Excrement, itself, is dirty; when inside of you, it’s mostly contained, but while traveling outside of you it leaves deposits on your skin. Your insides might be (debatably) cleaner afterward, but your outsides - where it usually matters most in terms of cleanliness - won’t be. Otherwise, we wouldn’t wipe or have bidets.

Besides that, there are secondary impacts. For example, assuming you’re in a place with modern plumbing and not camping or an outhouse or something, you should probably flush when you’re done. This causes a toilet plume. Personally, I don’t think this is enough to be considered “dirty,” but I definitely wouldn’t describe it as “less dirty.”

Finally, partially depending on both your toilet type and body type, even if you’re eliminating sanitized waste, there will still be interactions with several parts of the commode. Especially in public, that is definitely not a hygienic experience.

edit: I generally proofread my comments before posting, but somehow I still miss instances of my phone changing things like “wouldn’t” to “would,” completely undermining my intent.

Apparently at least one person is working, fairly successfully, on a server clone. I think it was this one, but I only know about it from one YouTube video I watched weeks ago.
