Full Service Plumbing Repairs Tucson

I just unboxed and installed a new microwave for my mother… and it doesn’t have time controls. There’s no T-9 style keypad. There’s three buttons:

Add 5 Minutes

Add 1 Minute

Add 10 Seconds

Nothing else. If you need to microwave something for 3 minutes, 30 seconds you have to press “Add 1 Minute” three times, and then do the same for the “Add 10 Seconds.” Need to warm something in a non-10 second time interval? Too bad! Fuck you!!

I’m so mad. I’m almost ready to create my own Technology Connections -style video essay about what a dogshit design this is.

But don’t worry! There are least 20 other buttons for the various popcorn mode and smart cook options, though. 😐

My perfect toaster

I own a Sunbeam Radiant Control Toaster, and this is one of those days I wake up and think about how perfect it is. In this case because I have homemade bread and it toasted significantly faster than expected so if I had to use a timer I'd have burned it and it would have taken half the loaf to figure out.

This toaster is perfect because you set the darkness level, which correlated to bread temperature. Instead of using a timer, it toasts until the bread is the correct temperature.

It doesn't matter how hot or cold the toaster started at.

It doesn't matter what temperature the bread is. A frozen slice will come out the same doneness as a room temperature slice without changing the controls at all.

It doesn't matter if the breads are different densities, they will come out the same unless there's huge variance without changing the controls.

Which means that if you're in a household like me with a roommate who eats different bread that might be fresh or frozen (but conveniently you like your toast about the same doneness), you set it once and can just put in whatever you want and get the perfect toast out every single time.

The only downside is that the tension needs to be adjusted periodically and it seems increasingly broken and annoying when it's loose (which is how it passed to me), but it's one well-labeled screw on the bottom and then it's like new. Even the ones from the 1940s basically run like new today. So it takes a little periodic maintenance but is otherwise nearly indestructible. There's almost nothing that can break.

First overview mainly focused on the automatic lowering and rising leaver.

Update review focusing on the thermostat (this is what makes it the best toaster ever made)

Uncovered a playlist of the peak style amvs and started lamenting that it's a seemingly lost genre of art before realizing the more honest answer as to why it died out is that they simply do not make shit like touhou anymore and nothing else is and never will be again worth the effort to do something like bad apple in every conceivable medium for

The new influx of posts that are like "I don't want ai to do this with my data, I want it to do something else with my data!!" Like OK i don't want it to access my data at all is that an option

Our old oven broke last week and Mom decided to replace it with. A fucking smart oven. That apparently uses wifi.

Hey guys did you know that pretty much every device is vulnerable just by having Bluetooth on 😀

Isn’t that nice

You probably don’t have to worry about it but hey now you have something to keep u up at night

Why do people want their oven/emergency generator/air compressor to be controlled by an ap?

Trading convenience for the technological equivalent of an eldritch horror

It’s always, always, always a good idea to have the essentials internet-free, or at least have some redundancies, but wow from these comments I can tell the majority of people are not disabled or differently abled

Welcome to the future, where you don’t own anything and the stuff you rent stops working once your phone has no signal.

Cleaning tips (mostly laundry but various other things too) because a conversation with my coworkers revealed that you can live 50+ years and never be given information that will save you time and money

Dilute your bleach!!! One tablespoon in a gallon of water is enough to disinfect according to the CDC

NEVER mix chemicals for cleaning because you could accidentally make a toxic gas while trying to to clean the bathroom.

ALWAYS make sure to ventilate the area you are cleaning with chemicals like bleach or a strong cleaner, if good ventilation is not possible take breaks. Your lungs will thank you.

Don't use fabric softener. It ruins your clothes and your washing machine. It makes towels less absorbent and leaves a film on your clothes that can irritate your skin

If your skin is irritated try switching to an unscented laundry detergent or just using less detergent.

To remove the film that fabric softener leaves on your clothes, use a laundry stripper or vinegar in the wash. Laundry stripper is typically more powerful so you won't need more than 1/3 of a cup and you likely won't need more than 1 cup of vinegar. This is also good to use on thrifted clothes to make them feel new

Spot treat stains and throw them in the hamper, the longer it sits the better it will work. Treat oil based stains with dish soap

Washing on tap cold is usually good enough and will save you money and time because basically everything can go in that load without additional damage. Hot water will wear out synthetic fiber fabrics and elastic faster and shorten the life of the garment

Both dishwasher and laundry detergent can be purchased cheaper and more sustainably in powder form. Paying for water in products is silly and dry bulk products are easier to stretch on a budget. Pods prevent you from being allowed to stretch the product's use AT ALL

If you have access to a dishwasher please use it, I guarantee it uses less water than hand washing dishes

Prewash cycle on the dishwasher and the rinse aid are genuinely helpful especially if you have hard water

Does anyone here have any experience with SwitchBot smart home hubs?

I had never heard of SwitchBot until I started exploring smart home technology. Apparently, their smart home hubs are designed to seamlessly integrate various devices, making life more convenient and efficient. Users have shared that these hubs allow for easy automation and control of home appliances, enhancing comfort and energy management. It's exciting to see how these hubs can simplify daily routines and create a more connected living space.

I'm just curious for those who have tried it - how does the SwitchBot smart home hub compare to other smart home hubs on the market? Is it user-friendly and reliable, or are there features that stand out?
