A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

This is going to be an effective way to tank the Google/Yelp review score of your restaurant. And pay toilets are also stupid in Europe, I say that as a European.

Do you want piss everywhere? Because that's how you end up with piss everywhere.

Yup, I'll gladly piss on the smart lock that controls this bullshit. I almost pissed in a trashcan in high school in front of the whole class when a teacher wouldn't let me go to the bathroom.

I almost had my penis out before the teacher realized I wasn't bluffing.

shoutout to harkening to Airbnb btw:

“Homelessness is a growing problem, and some providers worry that a homeless person may destroy or soil the bathroom,” she said. “Flush provides a way to access and provide access to a clean, reliable bathroom … Airbnb was so successful because it provides something we all need — a roof over our heads — and Flush is doing the same for bathrooms.”

yeah man, Airbnb really solved homelessness and the "having a roof over your head" problem huh

Airbnb was so successful because it ~~provides~~ restricts behind exorbitant price-gouging for something we all need — a roof over our heads — and Flush is doing the same for bathrooms.

Fixed the quote for them.

The not-so-quiet part here is "Homeless or poor people don't deserve to have their basic need of a toilet met"

They call it a "need" but proudly talk about how they're taking it away from the less fortunate.
