If I ever become wealthy, I will buy a bidet with warm water, and make my residence have the piping for it. Switching to a cold-water bidet saved me a ton of TP. Alas, it would take $19,000+ for my current house to have 60-year old piping replaced to accommodate instant hot water.

My house takes at least 5 minutes for the shower to get warm. I am wasting a ton of water, but the alternative is hypothermia.

how much plumbing is in your house that it takes five minutes to get water from the tank to the shower?

I suspect things look like this:

I opted for a bidet "wand" years ago. I found many bidets didn't fit well on the toilets I had, or didn't actually get me any cleaner than toilet paper would. The wand improves accuracy and cleanliness tenfold. Highly recommend if you want something that requires you to sit in a specific position to see the benefits of a bidet.

i feel this.

i had a biobidet 320 heated washlet. kept a little tank of water next to the toilet always at 110-135 degrees F (I used 120). Press of a button and I had a clean ass with warm water. No chilly cheeks in midwinter. I repaired and rebuilt that damn thing so many times. That bidet came with me through ten moves. I think I gave it to my older brother because he's a shitass.

Is the hot water for cleaning efficiency or just comfort?

i mean, there's bidets and there's bidets. hot water makes such a difference, and then being able to properly adjust the pressure, and then blow drying, and then webcam, and then singing, and then auto shut, and then night light, and then wifi, and then mp3, and then discord integration, and then automatic refills

How can it be loss with only one panel?

[–] ptu@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

Window panels on top floor is a good start, third panel missing, fourth the mans legs

Edit: third is clearly the entrances pillars. So yes, this is loss.

I bidet goodbye

[–] eru@mouse.chitanda.moe 3 points 1 day ago

that is understandable toto wavelets are actually pretty expensive

[–] village604@adultswim.fan 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

All you need is a trip to the hardware store. You need a sink sprayer and a T adapter and you're good to go.

[–] maniclucky@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

$20 on Amazon and you get the whole setup nice and easy. [Disparage Amazon here]

[–] Madzielle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 17 hours ago

admittedly, we got ours on amazon for $35 bucks, yearssss ago.

You can see the WIP sketches and uncolored (digital) inks they've posted of their own work here. Took 10 seconds and a Google search to find, probably about 3 seconds longer than it took you to post this.

If there's a name on it, there's a good chance it's not AI slop.

[–] brown567@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah, clanker-wankers aren't skilled enough to write their name on the slop they conjure

This sounds sarcastic, but I genuinely think many of them wouldn't even know how to add text to an image

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 day ago

They rarely bother, and if they do, it's easy to look them up and see if they actually create stuff.
