I am not a big fan of the way Android answers calls and manages snooze vs silence alarm clock. You have to press in the middle of a circle and then two equally weighted icons (one of which your thumb is now obscuring) have to be slid to: one being the default option you want the other being the opposite of that. It used to be one big green icon in the middle for the thing you want and one small red icon in a corner for the other option.

Poop/pee in toilet, stand up, turn around, press flush plunger and rinse your hands in the sink that's built into the top of the tank, which will become the water for the next flush. Actually a picture is easier, even if this is kind of a janky example:

I only vaguely know what you're talking about, so I'm just going to say I'm not a fan of the way Android consistently changes the interface to key functions like answering calls and putting your phone on silent between versions. I had to root my phone and use an Xposed module to restore the same silence functionality every version of Android before 5.0 had because some dork thought everyone wanted an overly complex priority system instead. It's like, man I just want to silence everything and not have my phone vibrate while I'm in a meeting, or whatever

the tesla is just too clowny for me like you open up the hood and it's like "where the gently caress is the engine at?" then you sit in the drivers seat and it's like "where the gently caress are all the tactile controls for standard equipment?" and apparently it has a little remote thing that looks like a lovely knockoff console peripheral ?

Sadly, the tank-top sinks are become less common as kawaii modern bathrooms are getting little sinks put in to be more accessible for kids etc. The toilet is in a separate room from the bathroom sink and bath/shower. I bet someone, somewhere has tried to gargle with the bidet, though.

Maybe they've changed it, because on my new Android phone you answer calls just like on an iPhone (slide the green to the right when it's locked, or just tap the green button if it's unlocked), and the snooze on the alarm is just a red button in the dead center of the screen that you slide in any direction you like.

This is what the toilets/sinks in jail look like, except they're all one piece, made from stainless steel and without the seat. Wish I didn't know that.

My 2015 Fusion's voice system works perfectly like 99% of the time, including giving the satnav addresses. It's actually creepily good at recognizing addresses, even non-standard ones. It even knows what state you're in and switches the context controls. Maybe you mush-mouthed idiots should try speaking clearer? I dunno. \/\/

I am honoured and touched that this thread has been goldmined. I would like to thank you all sincerely for your contributions. You've made an old man very happy. My former workplace had HP laserjets. Fine machines. When I went freelance I bought an HP colour inkjet printer. What an utter POS. Constantly dropped the wireless connection, constantly gave an out of paper message when there was in fact paper. Generally rubbish. I gave it away and bought a Samsung laser printer instead which, once I used a static IP address, worked like a loving charm. HP printers used to be good.

Parallel Paraplegic posted:did the other prisoners make fun of you for doing this or is it just a thing everyone does I guess you mean me? I never saw anyone take a Butters dump, while drinking the water. You do drink a ton of water though. My skin has never looked so good. Really, you get your business done as quickly as possible, because (at least where I was) the toilet is just against one wall without any obstruction of view between you and the rest of the inmates. I was in one that was set up with about 12-20 inmates in two large rooms, one with the toilet and a bunch of steel bunkbeds, and the other with a TV behind some plexiglass and a bunch of concrete tables for eating/playing cards. The shower was next to the toilet and there was no curtain or anything, so your fellow inmates get to know you intimately. Anyway, there is a fun rule about taking a dump in there, though. Since there's no seat, it's all just made from one piece of stainless steel, it provides a good seal on your rear end when you sit. So the rule is that when you're finished pooping, but before you wipe, you reach behind you and flush it. That way, no poop air escapes into the general area, it all gets sucked down the toilet. There's a surprising amount of rules like that in there.

therattle posted:That's a good rule. Civilised. Tell us more please. One more, but that's it, because I like this thread the way it is and I don't want to jack it. Toilet paper is invaluable. You can't buy it from the commissary, and you only get 3 rolls between the 12-20 inmates in your "dorm" a day. That might seem like plenty, but it's the thinnest, singly ply toilet paper you've ever seen. Now, if they come in in the morning and there's still a roll left, you only get 2 that day. So, you have to hide that extra roll somewhere or on someone, so that you get three. Under the corner bunks, where it's not as easy to see, there was usually a good dozen rolls stashed, at least until someone does something wrong and they do inspections. Uses for the extra toilet paper: Coffee filter. You only get hot water in the shower for about 4 hours in the morning, and while you can buy grounds from the commissary, there's no machine available to make them in. Also, everyone has their own cup for water or whatever, and it's your cup from the time you get in until you're released. So, take a few cups and fill them with hot water, and put some grounds on a wad of toilet paper. Ball that up as much as possible and float in in a cup of hot water, making very strong coffee. That way, you pour a little out into your own cup, and add water. It's pretty weak, but it's amazing how much you crave stuff like coffee. Padding out your pillow. You get one pillow, and it's about as thick as a crepe and made from vinyl. You can run one end seam against the metal corner of your bunkbed over and over until it splits open, and fill it with balled up toilet paper. A good comfortable pillow is important, because thanks to a few unfortunate incidents, they've done away with "lights out". Therefore, especially if you're on the top bunk, you've got a very bright fluorescent light about 4 feet above you that never shuts off. Drying off after your shower. You only get one towel, which never gets washed and never gets replaced. Since you also only get one thin blanket and it's always freezing in there, most guys use their towels as an additional blanket, so you use toilet paper to dry off after a shower. Also, you rarely shower. OK, that's it, no more threadjacking.

If you're using Chrome, try to: 1. Open a few tabs. 2. Press ctrl+F, and type something, like 's', to find it on the page. 3. Click on another tab. 4. Press ctrl+F. 5. There's an 's' in a search box, but nothing happens. You click the up and down search arrows, and nothing happens. You need to take your hand off the mouse and press Enter. Apparently, we can't have people repeating the same search by clicking an arrow, because that would be bad somehow. We need to disable the arrow and make you press Enter. To make sure you're serious.

That's interesting. Though why do you need to take your hand off the mouse to hit enter? Do you only have one hand? Or does your keyboard have no numpad, so the enter key is too far for your mouse thumb?
