A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Hahaha.

I just replaced a 20 year old dishwasher with it's newer equivalent: it has a grand total of 3 cycle options.

Screw this surveillance nonsense. Why does a dishwasher need connectivity? It's a box that sprays water.

A friend has one that the fastest cycle is 1.5 hours. One cycle is four hours... Wtf?

The apps are bullshit but the slower cycles take less water and energy, which is definitely a positive.

Idk why the speed is a big deal to folks, it's not like you have to sit there and babysit it, just hit play and go do something else

Because I cook, and need that stuff back. I don't have all day, I gotta cook again in a few hours.
