I worry this may be some form of confirmation bias or something. Because at that I was like “huh, I hadn’t thought of that, but now that I do, I think you’re right! It HAS been slightly more lately!”

Then I realized that I’ve been purposely holding off updates since August, so it can’t be true haha.

I’m not saying the same happened to you, I’m just saying it happened to me, so it’s possible it’s happening to others 🤷‍♂️😂

I think high end smasnugs do that. But yeah same, I have a Chromecast and I just sling stuff to the TV. Its tuner hasn’t been used in a decade.

Speaking of decade… I should probably upgrade that thing. But it’s big enough, dark enough (LDC, but at least not a crappy LCD), and high enough resolution for it’s size and distance from my couch (1080, 50 inches, 10 or 15 feet) that I just can’t justify replacing it. I wish it would die already lol.

Maybe if I move and get a big enough bedroom, I’ll put it in there, and upgrade to something with HDR. I really wanna get in on some good HDR. Seems like it’s getting really good and really affordable if you buy the right thing.

It was about that time…

Nice!

Very nice! Love the style

I like the style!

Fair enough, looks great! Thanks for explaining, glad to know I’m not going crazy lol

Hmmm, hard to say, I think I might like it better solid.

Though this way would be easier to add the dot for the third set 🤷‍♂️ more uniform with the rest

I’m struggling to parse this, reading top to bottom and left to right, it seems like random letters? Is there an extra layer of obfuscation?

I like it! I wonder how it would look if the N were hollow?

Nope, it’s Elianscript! A type of writing obfuscation that’s highly artistic, and I just think it’s neat 😅

Dell was my first thought as well

Have you tried it? Have you felt Poseidon’s kiss? Magical.

Soap is a bonus, an extra tool that we haven’t what’s had. But water, by itself, gets you a significant fraction of the way towards being “completely” clean.

Water is a polar molecule, it naturally separates dirt and grime, and dissolves things like salt and sugar.

It’s considered a universal solvent, not because it can dissolve anything, but because it’s so dang good at cleaning so much stuff.

If I’m away from soap, all I have is water, and my hands are dirty, I feel pretty good about using just water. With just water, and some mechanical action, you can get pretty far. Soap would be better, but that’s not always an option every moment of every day.

Nobody is saying that if you use a bidet you no longer have to wash your butt in the shower. But if you use a bidet, the time in between showers will be cleaner than had you just used paper. It’s literally science.

Soap would be better, sure. But if I was somewhere far away from soap, and I got poop on any part of my body, I would be much happier using a garden hose to spray myself off, rather than just some paper towels.

Likewise, when I’m out and about, with no bidet, sure, yeah, give me the TP. It’s fine, I guess.

But at home? With access to a bidet? Why wouldn’t I use it over the TP?

Bidets are cheap, easy to use, and effective. Everyone should get over themselves and get one.

Or don’t, you do you, but you’re missing out 🤷‍♂️

I’m not personally saying that everyone else has poor hygiene. But many people have poor hygiene, more than you can imagine. And a bidet helps have better hygiene.

Honestly it’s probably a good litmus test. Not everyone without bidets have bad hygiene. But statistically, I bet most people with bidets have good hygiene.

Interesting!

You’re welcome!

Can confirm! We have a winner!

Normally I’d wait until the end of the month to deal out the reward, but this puzzle has been here a couple months, everyone has had plenty of opportunities to solve it haha.
