You don't need instructions, it's obvious just from looking. Like the three seashells.
Outer Wilds reference, great game 10/10
To anyone reading this comment and wondering "If Outer Wilds is so great, why isn't everyone talking about it?" that's because anything we can say about the game would be a spoiler.
Outer Wilds is a gold standard to how i want my video games to be like.
If that's your standard, I imagine you're often disappointed
Quite the opposite i dont need things to be perfect to enjoy them. “Gold” is pretty high up
Skyrim was an amazing game that i sunk way more time in and i love cyberpunk77 but to reach my subjective silver or gold the main gameplay has to be something other then violence.
Stanley parable and portal instantly come To mind as making the tribunal.
The Sims was my first love but doesn’t make the tribunal cause enshitification.
Minecraft cant make the list because the therapeutic effects it gave me right when my young self needed it transcends it being labeled a video game. Minecraft simply is an aspect of my life even if i don't play for years and lost track of updates since cave n cliffs.
There is truth that i generally am uninterested in most tripple A games.
Probably doesn't know how to use the seashells by the toilet, either.
All these single-handle showers are such an example of designer UX ruling over user input. What ever happened to having either 2 or four labeled handles?
Four?!?
Don't worry, you'll figure it out.
:/
Hot, Cold, Pressure, Nozzle output spray type
Ah okay, I guess I do have at least three of these directly. Pressure you just have to cheese it with the Hot/Cold taps but being able to regulate and then turn it on or off would indeed be excellent!
Yes, four.
- Hot for shower, Cold for shower
- Hot for tub faucet, Cold for tub faucet
Ew, shower's over tubs are awful, dangerous, not disability-friendly disasters.
Edit: Also you can achieve the same with three taps when one is the spigot selector.
Look at you mr can afford multiple bathrooms
Us poor normal folk get one bathroom and God damn it I like options.
Firstly, not a Mr and I think that's fairly clear from my username, so please don't call me that.
Secondly, I don't have two bathrooms, just one that doesn't suck:
Seeing this bathroom layout in house listings so often mystifies me. Like, I see the benefit of having both a shower and a tub, but putting them in the same room means that, in many circumstances, they can't be used at the same time....unless you're very comfortable with your friends and family, I guess.
I think it's more about having access to both than them being able to be used at the same time. Even in places with two bathrooms here, usually one will have just a shower and the other will have both.
I mean, you still have access to both if they're combined..? The only time it'd become an issue is what they already commented: when they're used at the same time.
Also combined can be a pretty nice thing, as you can bath, and then rinse off properly without going anywhere else or dripping soapy water all over.
Showers over bath are dangerous and not disability friendly in the slightest.
When I lived in Japan, my apartment had a thermostat for the in-line water heater with controls by the bathroom and kitchen. I knew what temp I liked to shower and just used hot water.
On the contrary, they're brilliant design!
What you want to control is water temperature and (separately) water flow rate. Two taps let you control those but only by guessing the right combination of settings with trial and error. On your first try you'll get one right (the flow rate, say) and mess up the other one (the temperature, say). Try again and you're a little closer, but not perfect.
One-handled taps align their control vectors with the search space's basis vectors. You want more flow? Turn this way, exactly to the right setting. You want higher temperature? Turn this other way, orthogonal to the first, without altering what you had set there. There's no comparison.
That's all well and good until a shitty design has 3/4ths of one of those dimensions functionally equivalent, so you end up struggling to find the correct combination anyways because 90% of the useful range is spread over 5 degrees of motion.
Also, water pressure is a non-issue for how most people shower. No one is choosing 72.5% water pressure, so it's a bit pointless to herald the separated control as much of a functional win.
So with the plethora of shitty designs out there, and the fact that one of those variables doesn't really need to be fine tuned... I functionally agree with the other person: Combined sucks in practice, regardless of how neat the concept is supposed to be.
