  I don’t know either. There really isn’t a universally agreed upon standard for how to leave a toilet seat. Even with a sign dictating the expected behaviour, it’s not a guarantee. It’s completely illogical to expect a toilet seat to have been left in any specific state*, and therefore the onus is entirely on the next person to set it how they want before using it. This is already how it works. It takes 1 second. I don’t know who is complaining about it.

  Although, on second thought, the only people who would ever have to move the seat in a seat-down world are those who want to pee standing up, and there might be some value in very gently discouraging that behaviour in a public restroom. Not sure if that’s the goal here, but it’s a theory.

  *Unless there’s a lid. Close the damn lid!

  From the library of Jurgen Leitner, no doubt.

  Yup. I’ve never really felt compelled to steal anything at all in my life, but I found some silverware like this at a restaurant one time and I don’t think I had much of a choice.

  Once I felt that ideal shape in my hand, with the perfect amount of heft distributed exactly as it should be, I knew I could never go back to using regular flat silverware.

  The waiter caught me trying to clumsily hide the one set, and then he brought me a second one to take home as a gift. It was one of the nicest things, I’ll never forget it.

  I unironically support this

  Asking out of genuine naivety, why do you do that?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Public Firehose Project Shutters After Backlash⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, I really wish people would be a little more tactful when they go on performative tirades like this. It’s giving “old man yells at cloud” energy. Ridiculous behaviour when you think about it. People can block clouds, yelling is worse than useless.

  To be totally fair, nostr’s whole thing is that users can delete all of their federated data if they want to, so it makes sense if they are upset about having their data copied to a place they can’t control.

  Not sure how realistic that is with the data being publicly accessible via the web, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the they have some kind of license that gives the dmca request the ability to hold a nonzero amount of water. Then again, I wouldn’t be suprised if completely fails, either.
