In urban and suburban areas here in the US our waste water goes thru a sewer system to travel to a waste water treatment plant where it gets re-made into drinkable water and reintroduced into the common water supply lines. Now in rural areas where most dwellings are likely to make use of septic tanks for containing waste water, which is then treated by the dwelling owner regularly flushing some Rid-X down a toilet to provide enzymes for breaking down the waste, it could be possible to hook up an irrigation system to the septic tank and use the waste water to water the lawn.
But that's not the point. Gardens and flowers needs to be watered regularly, but lawns? Grass is literally made to survive on almost no water, its just a damn outdoor carpet. Your driveway? Since when does asphalt requires water to survive? Didn't know that.
Annoyed's argument of maintaining the value of his property is BS. If you're going to sell your house and you have a damaged driveway you're going to repair it, it has to be redone every 10-20 years or so anyway. If the leaves causes so many stains to your precious driveway, just buy a damn leaf-blower and don't wait for it to rot there. Every time I see one of these cretins washing their driveway I get the strong urge to punch them in the guts.Spoiler:I don’t want to be human. I want to see gamma rays, I want to hear X-rays, and I want to smell dark matter. Do you see the absurdity of what I am? I can’t even express these things properly, because I have to—I have to conceptualize complex ideas in this stupid, limiting spoken language, but I know I want to reach out with something other than these prehensile paws, and feel the solar wind of a supernova flowing over me. I’m a machine, and I can know much more.

As if that changes anything, ad was viewed by millions. If something it just gives it more publicity. What a farce that network is.Spoiler:I don’t want to be human.

Well, maybe the current SCOTUS isn't that bad after all..
Supreme Court refuses to take up challenge to Obama-era net neutrality rules
The Supreme Court on Monday put an end to a legal battle over the Obama administration's net neutrality rules, refusing to hear an appeal of a lower court ruling that upheld the 2015 regulations.
The court declined to hear the appeal from the trade group USTelecom, which represents internet service providers, and Century Link Inc. without explanation.

Originally posted by Chaka-Z0 View PostOf course, because there's no use for a waste water line, absolutely none whatsoever as you said the water in urban areas is collected and re-used. The problem with this is that when you water your lawn / driveway most of the water doesn't make it there, and is wasted.

I'm also more likely to want to tear out the entirety of my lawn and pave it all over so I don't have to cut grass
