Long USB cables can be problematic, and to avoid problems may need to be inconveniently thick and stiff. I've taken to using an AC extension chord for most of the length when I need to charge far from an outlet.

And it's impossible to provide for all these options on one screen, with either a password field that some users ignore or some kind of option selection that either hides or shows it?

Are we not supposed to stick blueberries up our butts?

I'm seeing that /s as the symbol for a skid mark.

I'm still waiting for the handstand folks to chime in.

Safety razors are really not any harder to use. The real answer is cartridge razors are what are marketed, and they are what are marketed because they make more money.

What does it count as if you lift one thigh and buttcheek off the seat?

Wouldn't deep make it harder to dip your hand in?

This isn't even a can situation. Except for those rare cases of two partners during together in an accident, one of your will die before the other. This hypothetical situation isn't hypothetical, it's the norm.

And immortality doesn't change anything. One person dies and the survivor grieves. After some years, you get over it. Life goes on. It's not that you don't still miss the person, but life goes on, and the pain fades. This happens in mortal timelines, immortality doesn't make the scenario any more poignant.

Those who actually push for regression are scary. But they don't truly push for regression, they push for a cherry picked and misremembered version of the past. And the bits they would like to keep vs rollback are different from how I would choose. But a lot of the elements of what we have now are not improvements on the past and I think we need to figure out how to undo some of the damage we've done.

And I think part of the reason we have so many scary regressive people is because they feel the ways that the world has gotten worse, even if they misdiagnose it.

I can understand that to someone not used to this, any gap at all might be troubling and one might tend to exaggerate it as "massive".

However note that these walls are fairly thick which narrows any visibility angles considerably. So to really see someone through the gap you would have to be at exactly the right angle and looking straight at them. Sitting on the toilet in one of these you can see some really narrow strip of the sinks area which also reflects the areas in which someone would have to be and looking straight at you to see you. People at the sink area have their back to you. People walking past them to another stall, are not looking to the side.

I'm not trying to convince you that they are ideal, or that your should like them, just that when the gaps are pretty narrow it is not as big a deal as you might think to get used to.

Again this is assuming these gaps are pretty narrow. I get the impression from what some Americans have said in other discussion that in some places they are quite a bit wider than I am used to, and what I said above may no longer apply.
