Problem

After long hacking sessions, you will start to smell funny. Also, guests to your space seem to neglect personal hygiene.

Implementation

The discriminate hackerspace has a bathroom with a shower. After a long hacking night you’ll have the best ideas while taking a shower. Guests from other hackerspaces may stay for several days. Ideally you will buy a washing machine to get rid of all the smelly towels.
