Dooo it. This game is such a mind trip!
The original comment we replied to opened with- “Welcome to the majority of AMERICAN…” so I don’t know where you got the idea there was any assuming.
Required? In the states? Nah. My last house in the states was built in 2000, not a single balancing valve or thermostatic valve in the place. 4 bed 2.5 bath.
Not just the states….im in a (rented) house in Germany that was built in the 90s (so not that old to compare to a lot of other houses here) and deal with this everyday. Coupled with the insanely long cleaning times and frequency of use due to how small they are for the “economic” washing machines and dishwashers, fluctuating water pressure and water temps are always a surprise….

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•There should be a "last used combination" faucet handle for sinks so you don't have to balance hot and cold everytime during winter
27·1 month agoMy super basic faucet handles are exactly that…you twist it left-right to set temp and tilt it up-down for pressure from off to full. We just leave it rotated wherever we like it for temp and tilt up to turn on each time to the desired pressure. Our water pressure is always variable, so the amount tilted up varies, but the “rotational temp” almost never needs changing. There’s no fancy thermostatic valve in these like some shower have. There’s even those fancy kitchen sink faucets that remember everything and you just tap them with your hand and they automatically turn on/off to your settings of temp and pressure. I think they are called “touchless faucets”. Pretty sure even Ikea sells one.
I feel like sink handles like mine are super common, too. I’ve had similar ones in the states and in Europe…

Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics.@slrpnk.net•Iowa City Made Its Buses Free. Traffic Cleared, and So Did the Air. | Ridership jumped, people cut back on driving and, over the summer, the city extended the program another year.7·1 month agoThat’s how it is in a lot of places in Europe, i think anywhere outside of the bigger cities. The bus routes where i live in Germany are all once an hour. Gets less often at night on weekends, but we still pay for them.
Im in Europe (Germany) and i definitely noticed both the huge AWS outage that was not long ago and today’s Cloudflare drop….
Is this the angle of the tower that’s now mostly destroyed? I dont quickly have a current picture on hand, but ive visited the castle many times in the last few years.
Everything looks and works fine for me on iOS. There isnt left/right buttons for my discovery queue, i just swipe left/right and it scrolls through…🤷

Technology@lemmy.world•Here’s what ads on your $2,000 Samsung smart fridge will look likeEnglish
3·2 months agoYea, i pretty mich agree with all your points. Made me think of a situation with my neighbor a few months ago- one of their kids left the fridge door slightly open when they left. I think for a weekend trip or something, just enough that everything had spoiled. Lots of meat, too, so they had a blast with that. Some sort of push notification might have helped or prevented that, but otherwise…nah. Dont need nor want any of that always connected, smart, online, wtf ever mess.

Cool Guides•Top 10 most stolen cars in AmericaEnglish
17·2 months agoI think those are/were the ones that could be started with just a USB-A connector…sticking it in where the key goes. And everyone has usb cables in their cars already…
Another one of these with no Win 95…😩
But still kind the same…the guys i know that are into watches dont buy just one and done. They are collectors. Like one for each type of outfit almost. So this could compare to buying numerous car parts. And there’s always the unobtainable dream watch that probably costs as much as a nice car…

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Have you ever traveled outside of America? (Not to Canada or Mexico)
10·2 months agoYup. American living in Germany for 2.5 years now, been traveling all over EU and UK…the world is a huge place and there’s a LOT of people. Most of them never think about the states and will never have any reason to. Germany may not be my favorite place, especially since i really struggle with the language so i know i dont fully understand a lot of things here. But the EU in general has a lot of things going way better.
With that said…everywhere always has its own issues as well. The grass isn’t always completely greener, if you will.

PC Gaming•First time playing the original Deus Ex!English
4·4 months agoNeat! That game has been on my wishlist for a long time, i still keep passing on it whenever it’s on sale…one day i’ll actually pull the trigger. It’s nice reading all these replies about various mods and things keeping the game ‘current’!








Labeling that says “Made with xxxxx” for example “Made with 100% all white chicken!” ‘WITH’ is the key word here. The item might be only 3% chicken and 97% other junk, but that 3% of chicken is 100% all white! This isnt just food items, could be cleaning supplies, or a lot of other things too. ‘Made of xxxx’ could be better, or ‘Made 100% with/of’….
