i had to install an extra valve because my water pressure is way too high to hook the bidet up to the main line straight. its high pressure enough that's could hurt someone.

i want a bidet but running power to heat the water it shoots out will be a bit problematic since an outlet isn't exactly close and i dont want ice cold water shooting at my taint no thanks

you don't get an electric heater. you just connect it to the hot water line of the sink that's in the same room as the toilet and typically in a position that the line wouldn't be noticeable. also your water really isn't that cold and being warm really doesn't matter once you're used to it.

If you're hosing your sphincter for like 30 seconds where you're getting that frosty chill water from the mains, then yeah I could get the concern but let's be real if you're normally blasing your rear end in a top hat with a jet of water for that long you're gonna get turned on by it being ice cold because you're a god drat masochist.

talk about a guy that peaked in high school though, woof his mom killed herself like a year after the backyard reactor incident, he flunked out of a metallurgy program at the local community college, joined the navy then the marines, somehow got an honorable medical discharge, and then spent the rest of his life getting busted for meth head type larceny which was actually just him stealing smoke detectors for the americium sources inside them before being found dead of an alcohol/opioid OD at the age of 39. p sure if the navy just let him work on the fuckin reactor he'd have been fine, or maybe he'd have stolen the fuel rods who knows

Look at this guy who doesn't enjoy the sweet fruits of a Toto - instant hot water at varying temps, heated seat, charcoal air filter, etc. It's also way easier to hook up to the existing cold water line going to the toilet.

Not a Children posted:Fun fact: when a critical mass of people start taking advantage of power offset through the batteries they have at home, power companies will lower or stop those off-peak rate adjustments I have read that the increased efficiency of other electrical devices these days is helping a lot with that. You add 40A per house for the car but you've already saved 25A by replacing all the light bulbs with LEDs and getting rid of the 40 inch Trinitron. Nfcknblvbl posted:

well you see you need to own a prius for like 10 years before the carbon cost of its manufacture is offset by its use and since teslas are so much better it's best to replace yours every other year in order to save the planet

does the battery in a Prius even last 10 years?

sure, buying a new car every three years is silly enough on its own, but also, why exactly is dude rushing out to buy an enormous pedestrian-devouring truck when sedans seemed to suit their needs perfectly well up until now

Silver Alicorn posted:does the battery in a Prius even last 10 years? Yes. I read an article a few years back about some New York City taxis that were going on half a million miles with their first battery still going strong This is because Toyota is extremely conservative and their battery management maintains the battery between like 20 and 80% capacity all of the time and only charges at a reasonable rate. In a Tesla that drains the battery to depletion in order to claim a higher range, and where you're supercharging regularly, you will not get 10 years.

i'm like the one person in the world who can generate a real use case for the "power your home" thing. the previous owner of my house got a transfer switch installed and then for some reason, who fuckin knows, they didn't get a generator to go with it. also i'd really like to have a bev pickup still though, like...i could get a generator if i want one so bad, and keep driving my frontier? who the f wants to drop $60k on a pickup truck
