The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**

Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

Anyone, whether it's man or woman, who pisses or shits or whatever all over a toilet (i.e. not inside) has quite likely never cleaned a fucking toilet in their life.

Story time.
It honestly feels like about 264,000 gallons of that were spilled at a placed I used to work. I still have no idea who the culprit(s) was.
No kidding, the problem was so bad that building management stepped in and... added chamomile scented floor mats beneath the urinals to catch and deodorize the... ugh (gross)... drippings. It was such a strong smell that it wafted out into the hallway with the subtlety of a sledgehammer. This prompted some of the women in the office to remark at how unfair it was that the men's room was obviously getting all this extra attention. I almost can't describe the mixture of disappointment and disgust on their faces once I explained why this was happening.
I also once had to explain to my wife that the above situation, along with the smell of urinal cakes and most gas-station-restroom deodorizers, are the reason why chamomile tea is a hard pass for me.
Should build them as wet rooms, periodically a large shower head sprays down the entire room.
Poor floor
Which bathroom floor?
How would anyone know that??
Urine Georg,
Where is this bathroom so I can avoid it?
I want to know how they estimated that
Do a small test with a single user, take the amount of spillage then times it by the pissing population and average numbers of wees a day.
Someone went to college to figure this out
lmao
Clearly somebody has a bladder problem.
In space, no one can hear you pee:
where does all the p go captain? 🫣
It gets recycled. Water is expensive to get to space and most their food is dehydrated.
Its part of the P - drive jet propulsion system.
Thank God it's not all at once.
Pee Tsunami!
The CYBER urinal will revolutionize this, fertilize homeless camps and change life as we know it. Act now!
That must be a big bathroom!!
I know I, for one, was concerned about all this wasted piss, and I'm glad there's a team of scientists looking into a solution.
Their research is based on a model like this, the million litre they say is being spilled would be 'saved' by comparing a model like this to their own extra splash resistant design. They say this model has to much backsplash.
Just make the floor sloped into a drain and you don't even need urinals. 🤷🏻♂️
hear me out, the bathrooms at my local Dave and Busters pretty much has it so that the urinals are basically embedded into the wall—so instead of an outie, think of it like an innie—and so really, it takes away the vertical precision needed and just feels more natural... just my 2 cents.
Please don't make troughs become a thing again!
