Exactly. Call me when you can use the toilet remotely. Now that would be progress.

I've been using a very similar toilet seat for the last 2 years. Remote, flushing, deodorizer, warm seat, showers, etc. Though, to be fair, they are common enough to even be in public bathrooms here in Japan...

I don´t care what they say, if you don´t clean the toilet at least once a month, you´ll get your very own personnalized mushroom farm. And no, the shrooms are not the kind that make you giddy and see rainbows.

You can use the toilet remotely already- get a Foley catheter and a rectal tube put in by a nurse or doctor. Then you can "go" at will and empty the collecting pouches in the toilet whenever it is convenient. I wouldn't recommend it, but it's certainly possible.
