Funny part is many of us crusty old sysadmins were using derivatives of this decades ago to test RAID-5/6 sequencial reads and write speeds.

it’s more akin to 15 squirrels perched on a branch pissing on me.

I laughed way too hard at this. Mine and my wife’s favorite shower head in a long time has been the Delta showerhead we got at Costco: https://www.costco.com/delta-h2okinetic-in2ition-5-setting-hand-shower.product.100763750.html

Very useful and customizations for each of us like being able to turn off the water during shampoo lathering or shaving and detaching it to rinse off.

I’m glad I was able to help, thank you for letting me know. You made my day!

Crazy how simple that is to make such an impact on daily life isn’t it?

Yup, I screwed up and forgot to add it. Edited it and did so.

This.

I always get downvoted for saying it, but I don’t care because the real water savings never came from stupid showers: It comes from not growing crops in the damned desert; it comes from not growing grass on lawns in arid environments; it comes from not raising so many cattle.

Most low flow shower heads have a plastic insert in them called a restrictor that can be removed to make it work like the high flow ones.

It’s nothing more than a small cylinder that can be pushed or pulled out from the shower line and manufacturers use these restrictors because it allows them to sell the same unit in multiple markets.

EDIT: Forgot to add water savings reasons.

Doubt

Yup and this change will neither apply to the EU nor Enterprise 11 Customers. Guaranteed.

At this point it wouldn’t surprise me if Syria reached out to Israel and said the enemy of my enemy is my friend, so let’s work together.

I… I’m shocked. Syria attacking Hezbollah was not on my Bingo card.

The idea of Syria attacking Hezbollah hasn’t been a thought, ever. Assad and Hezbollah were allies. So while it does make sense now that Assad is out, it’s just unprecedented.

Failed to innovate while riding the gravy train too long, lack of compensation in the face of rising costs, manufacturing issues, defective CPUs and nothing competitive. Yup, time to retire lol
