Competitive timed shitting league in China?
Eating some more fiber so that I can get my ELO up
Way too much RNG since too much depends on what I ate. I'll probably stick to Flush Any% until the update.
Excretion Length Output?
that's one. others:
mass over time (aka, the explosive single blast event)
total volume
total mass
solid to liquid ratio grading
I REALLY need the social credit for a vacation. Give me all the laxatives!
I'm going to use aimbot
Please do. Saves the cleaners some work…
Ass-wipe skip is definitely a viable time-save.
I mean, what problem are they trying to solve? And is long-sitting people really the main cause of that problem?
If a tourist destination is frequently winding up with people waiting for an open stall, and if the majority of people are in the stalls for what is considered a normal amount of time in their home country, then the actual problem is that the place simply doesn't have enough stalls and needs to add more
if it shows hours someone likely died in there again. i think it's okay to knock and check on them.
I like your casual use of "again" here 😁
Well they either died in which case checking doesn’t help, or they didn’t in which case checking doesn’t help either.
Well if you check and they died you can get the body out and then the stall is free again.
Whether you make a policy of knocking on bathroom doors, based on that reasoning, should be based on whether you’ve actually experienced a stall shortage caused by undetected death in the stall.
To not even consider being stuck on a toilet for that long, I'm jealous of your non-IBS digestive tract.
I used to work at a movie theater and someone died once in the bathroom. So that is probably why
That doesn't sound likely to be the reason. That's an extremely rare event that doesn't need a regularized solution. And visible timers is pretty much the least useful way to address that problem, instead of using standard emergency pull cords or even just an alert sound that rings after X minutes.
My guess is it's for the women's restroom because when bathrooms are busy, most women just wait for a stall door to open and don't always bend over to look under the doors to see if they're even occupied. It's also probably hard to see from a distance if the stall is occupied or not and nobody wants to be the one to shamefully walk back to the line because they had to get closer to check.
Nah occupied/unoccupied status lights have already been in existence for a while. The new thing happening here is that they've added a visible stopwatch counter
Oh I see! Yeah that is a bit strange
If your social credit score is high enough, you get 5 extra minutes on the Throne!
If you use it, your social credit score drops by 30!
If the Chinese are anything like the Japanese, some people (especially old people) will just lock themselves inside and sit down to take a nap. Even in a busy toilet, with no regard for people who actually need to use one.
That feels like part of the reason this exists.
What? Are these people who don't have homes? That's really weird to me
I had a coworker at a previous job who used to take naps in the bathroom stall because it was the only place in the office with a bit of privacy.
I kinda get it. I used to sit in a stall to decompress my brain because open plan offices are incredibly stressful to me. Every couple of hours I needed ~10 minutes of privacy.
These are public toilets though
As the guy who used to have to clean public toilets:
Those are someones only office!
For some elderly, they may find that they need to nap again to function. If you don't drive, you don't have a private location to sleep beyond home or a hotel. Rather than go home, they sleep on a bathroom stall.
Interesting. Thanks
“Reactions are mixed” is enlightened centrism at its worst
Having been to China, their public toliets are not up to Western standards in terms of smell and cleanliness. Either these are equivalent to Western-standard and they trying to curb abuse because they are attempting to be equitable, or they are trying to boost productivity via public shaming. I saw the locals would just squat and smoke while playing on phones while being very exposed without any care in the world. I was shocked at how widely accepted that was and that was in like a public kybo. Never seen anything like it.
Yes, in Shanghai proper, about 70% of the public toilets have toilet paper these days, and that ratio drops quickly to zero as you get into the exurbs. The newest bullshit are toilets which have paper, but you need a face scan to get it and it limits you to like 8 squares. It's like Japanese high tech bathroom, but instead of some anime Moe toilet character, it's abusive and dystopian. Almost as if it's forcing compliant indignity into every corner of society.
I'll make it a challenge to get the highscore and neither you nor the chinese government can do anything about that.
I come I shit I conquer
I come I shit I conquer
Veni, faeces, vici.
So 99:59? Depending on how the value is stored.
I mean I ain't stopping you. The Chinese guys though? They wouldn't give a flying shit. Which is good because that's what would be happening in the stall as they bust down the door.
'We won’t kick people out midway’
Smart, the cleanup from the alternative would be a lot of work.
The ejector seat budget was cut and tentatively penciled in for next year.
this made me chortle, well done.
Could have kept the empty/occupied sign with a subtle indicator for staff that comes on after an unusually long time. Same functionality without showing everyone the time down to the second.
I will be here until nature has taken its course. Stop being pervs china.
I recently installed a monitoring system for a Starbucks where a green light comes on near the register if the door has been locked 10 minutes. Before you get up in arms, they had someone die in there and just reopened the lobby.
In order to prevent employees from playing games in the toilet and being lazy, they do not go to work
A timer in the shitter. I'd flat out ignore it. Unless armed guards are kicking the door down, why should anyone care about it?
No porn in China so it takes a lot longer to jerk off.
There is more porn in China than you can imagine
