I feel like auto engineering isn't plagued by diversity hires. At least in the department(s) that get shit done. I always get amazed when I look at transmissions. Theyre truly a work of art.
Mechanic here, I feel like you've never had to work on anything made after the 80s.
A joke I've heard plenty of times; >An automotive engineer will crawl over a pile of a hundred virgins just to frick a mechanic in the ass.
Cars are bullshit, they're only becoming more and more excessively complicated, over-engineered and some of them are lucky to last the warranty period without something major going wrong.
on one hand, I understand your point intimately and agree.
On the other hand, I think you may be underestimating just how easy it is to "build more stuff". People have been slapping stuff upon stuff and around stuff for millenia. sheet metal stamping and modern manufacturing has allowed complexity to skyrocket, but for the most part stuff is still just being accreted atop other stuff, as is the human habit.
yesterday i ate nothing but oatmeal. had it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. it's 3am, and i just woke up and took the most horrendous shit in my life. like, i think the oatmeal acted like a scrubby pad all the way down my digestive tract, because it was the most foul smelling thing i ever encountered.
I remember when I was a kid our toilet broke for a year or two, the tank wouldn't fill, so we had to use a bucket to flush it. It was always a pain in the ass and the toilet would frequently get clogged, I'd be standing there at 2 am sloshing the plunger around in the bowl filled with my piss and shit trying to dislodge whatever was blocking it. Because of all the bullshit associated with it I ended up skipping shits because I hated it so damn much, I actually developed chronic constipation from it and it made me want to go shit even less. Got to be one of the worst periods of my life honestly, to this day I still have a habit of postponing BMs and an eternal burning hatred for number 2s.
thanks for sharing. out of curiosity, why did you post this on PrepHole - Do It Yourself?
idk. why are we all here talking about whatever except what the op posted? what about the op is PrepHole? what prompt for discussion is there? what question is being asked? why do jannies leave it?
i know you helpful boomers like to come into shitpost threads and show off your knowledge to impress everyone. and that's why we're stuck with all the shitposts. if shitposting is allowed, i'm going to shitpost. and not figuratively.
If you design or work on transmissions, is that not PrepHole? Also, where else would you post engineering related stuff? PrepHole and PrepHole are limp-wrist homosexuals that would laugh you off for posting anything mechanical.
So here's my update after my 3AM shittening:
I went to work and everything was fine until about 8:30-9AM, at which point I felt my usual, customary rumbling. I was a little surprised there was anything left, but I didn't try to argue. So I mosey on over to a bathroom that rarely gets used, plant my self, and proceed to birth a foul abomination that put the first one to shame.
But it was weird. It wasn't the shits or anything. It was a straight up log. The fricker had to be close to 2ft long when I was done. Wrapped around the bowl like 2.5 times. And it was one of those ones where you have to wipe your ass 8 times and you're still not done.
No joke, I burned up like 3/4 of a roll of dollar-store single-ply and it took 3 flushes to get rid of everything. (Well, everything but the skidmarks el oh el.) 3 flushes of one of those high-flow commercial toilets with the 1" water line!
>Scale it back a bit and it will settle down
Oh, no, no, no, my helpful friend. I came home and went right to the Taco Bell drive-thru. 4 soft tacos and a steak grilled cheese burrito. With like 10 packs of diablo sauce.
Mark my words: Tomorrow's going to be one for the history books.
Polite sage for inadvertent double post.
Well, anons, I have some bad news. The oatmeal purge followed by a heavy dose of Taco Bell did not have the effect I anticipated.
I expected a rather fiery colon blowout after 10 packets of diablo sauce but, instead, my morning dump was nothing to write home about. Not even as good as it would normally be. Quite underwhelming, to say the least.
My afternoon movement was much closer to "normal," but surprisingly (and atypically), it was like zero effort; what was there all just sort of slid out. Still not the diarrhea, mind you - it was quite solid. Oddly, the usual log was not formed. All the little bits and pieces of poo that would ordinarily be compressed into the customary log remained quite separate. So it was like laying 50 little eggs in rapid fashion with no user input needed.
Unclear as to your goal with this behavior, but if you enjoyed the oatmeal purge you should get some pysilium-husk powder. Metimucil is the classic, but there are generic brands that are much cheaper (I get the Costco orange flavored stuff). Anytime I have a long trip or will be flying and I don't want to be stopping to shit, do like 3 tablespoons of it the night before (normal maintenance dose is like 2 teaspoons). Next morning, you'll sit down, and absolutely purge yourself so quickly and smoothly you be sitting there thinking "wait, I can't possibly be done, right?". And if you do about a tablespoon every day, eternal ghost wipes.

What for?

For hoverbikes
Takes a bit for your guts to get used to that much fiber. Scale it back a bit and it will settle down in a week or so.
