    But, you don’t understand the toilet. The toilet cannot be monetized if we cannot see you taking a poo. Changing the glass doors will completely kill a trillion dollar industry.

    Logs your usage, lets you see one week of history. Meanwhile sells the entire usage history of you and everyone in your contact list to anyone willing to pay.

    Clients try to get you to pay as much as possible for toilet paper (subscription tp anyone? Will be cheaper in first stage of enshittification until they monopolize the market). Other clients try to correlate the success of political propaganda with how regular you are. Elected officials won’t regulate, because it’s a tool they had to master to get elected.

    On the plus side, Lemmy exists and that’s a step in the right direction. Would work that into toilet metaphor but don’t wanna ramble.

      So assuming they are… I’m still stuck at “why is this a thing?” Why do we need magicchange glass when particle board is far cheaper? I would have to be in dire straits to use one of these as my bowels would freeze up for fear of the glass switching to clear when someone jiggles the handle

        There’s a lot of things that people do that aren’t for practical reasons. That’s why all our homes aren’t just concrete cubes. Somebody must have decided that this looks cool and futuristic.

        Strictly from practical reasons, I suppose it’s marginally easier and faster to identify a free stall. Whether that is worth the extra cost is subjective.

        Also, the default state for this glass is frosted. In case of a failure it all becomes frosted.
