what the fuck i don't even own a dishwasher, why did i watch all of this

FlihpFlorp ,

So you could tell me, the person who doesn’t even run the dishwasher, all about it

Jimbabwe ,

I can’t watch. Plz

TropicalDingdong ,

THE WATER INSIDE IS RECYCLED!!!

Jimbabwe ,

What a time to be alive

KingJalopy ,

Same with me. Not sure where it goes though... Maybe in your dishwasher!

Thorny_Insight ,

There with ya

PunnyName ,

And this is the short version!

KingJalopy ,

Link! Now! I have a job I'm not worried about let's go!

PunnyName ,

This is the first one: https://youtu.be/_rBO8neWw04

Links to this alt channel and the second in that series should be included in that video.

KingJalopy ,

Thanks!

traches ,

Dude, life is too short to wash spoons with your hands

cor315 ,

Sometimes I just put one spoon in the dishwasher and turn it on.

TropicalDingdong ,

Is this who I think this is?

OH SHIT YEAH MIDWESTERN TECHNOLOGY PRAGMATIST VIDEO HAS DROPPED!!!

edit: Its a remix?

DV8 ,

The previous videos were too long for anyone who doesn't want to obsess about this. And this one is more pragmatic about your detergent of choice and thus more palatable for people who aren't already fans of his.

It's also takes him less time to make videos like this according to the messages on his patreon.

Personally I'm a fan of him remaking some videos like this. I can get my family to watch this a lot easier.

PunnyName ,

Just miss the jazz outro with the flubs and snarky captions.

JimmyMcGill ,

This one is still quite long

I wished he made his videos closer to the 20min mark

I’ll probably still watch it, but at almost 30mins it might take me some days to start it.

Top notch content. Right up there with his popcorn button on the microwave video.

fogstormberry ,

oh that was a good one. I should go back and rewatch it

blanketswithsmallpox ,

Old shit?: Bimetallic strips and clever designs.

New shit: Read the manual!

KingJalopy ,

The only video I ever watched from that guy and I know exactly who he is immediately just from that video being mentioned. I should watch more of his stuff i suppose.

cyberpunk007 ,

Link?

You999 ,

I'm still salty that my microwave's pizza button is one of the fake ones.

buddascrayon ,

Buy an air fryer.

JimmyMcGill ,

And the reheat button on microwave

I’m still mad that I have a shitty microwave now

eco_game ,

Same! I'm lowkey tempted to get a fancy one now, but deep down I know it just isn't worth it.

lnsfwuser ,

I have used the most expensive microwaves money can buy from Kenmore and GE and honestly the sensor reheat is just always complete shit. Way over or underdone every time. Soup/beverages are the only thing it’s good for. And the popcorn is also perfect every time.

I love Lemmy's love for Technology Connections. It just feels so right!

WhatAmLemmy ,

It's like crack for ADHD as he goes in-depth, down many of the rabbit holes other informational shows gloss over, if they would even cover the subject to begin with.

NOTE: do not follow any of the tips without checking your own dishwashers manual and testing its cycles. I found that my 1.5hr cycle cleaned better than the 2.5hr, during the 1.5 it instantly releases the detergent so I can just dump it anywhere, and that the difference in cost between the cheapest powder and tablets (locally) was negligible (thanks Aldi!).

PRO TIP: get the tablets that have a water soluble wrapper and feel like you're living in the future.

Matumb0 ,

I actually had to buy a new dishwasher and in Germany every dishwasher has to be set to economical cleaning mode as default.
That being said there is also a fast mode, but you have to use special tabs that dissolve fast enough. Otherwise they will not dissolve fully during the washing stage and then the stuff would be stuck in the dishwasher after drying and it might seriously reduce lifetime of seals etc.
So be careful with short washing programs on modern dishwashers!

Socsa ,

The fast mode also uses more water and electricity than the three hour heavy wash mode.

RandomGen1 ,

I would advise against the water soluble wrapper pods since they're iirc a major contributor to microplastics in our water

Speaking of Technology Connections; if anyone missed the recent Popular Science video on the RCA SelectaVision, Alec pops up to give a quick primer on the tech.

Habahnow ,

Been waiting for his next video.
Whoa just found out this guy does videos about stuff other than dishwashers. that's pretty cool, hope this dishwasher guy makes it big.

IntentionallyAnon ,

He will always be known to me as the toaster guy that taught me how to make a quick $100

KingJalopy ,

Popcorn button dude for me

chrisbit ,
@chrisbit@leminal.space avatar

Heat pumps...

back_to_my_bed_again ,

And latent heat of vaoprization!

JimmyMcGill ,

Quick 100$?

Habahnow ,

How did he teach you to make a quick 100 bucks?

IntentionallyAnon ,

Sunbeam Radiant control toasters sell working used on ebay for $100-200

You can buy them not working for under $50

90% of the not working ones can be fixed by adjusting tension

buddascrayon ,

Check out the one he does on air conditioners it's pretty awesome.

Habahnow ,

The one about how the non-window/wall ones suck?

sik0fewl ,

And even more on Connextras!

dumbass ,
@dumbass@leminal.space avatar

Awesome, I was looking for something to wind down with after today's shitty ass day at work.

Gormadt ,
@Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Just let the video wash your troubles away

PunnyName ,

With powdered dish soap, not that pod shit.

WallEx ,

Yeah, tried it for the first time, its eye opening

ayaya ,
@ayaya@lemdro.id avatar

I've never had a job where we celebrate Shitty Ass Day. What's that like?

dumbass ,
@dumbass@leminal.space avatar

Nowhere near as fun as you'd think.

Not enough ass, too much shit.

jabathekek ,
@jabathekek@sopuli.xyz avatar

Ah, that feeling when management says "18 men, one cup."

SexualPolytope ,
@SexualPolytope@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

I actually watched this video and decided to clean the filter. Pretty gnarly.

jabathekek ,
@jabathekek@sopuli.xyz avatar

My condolences.

ssj2marx ,

Ever since the first version of this video came out I've been a Dishwasher Evangelist. At my parents' house I regularly pack it full and get perfectly clean dishes an hour later with no rinsing or anything - but I swear to god I have seen them hand wash dishes with soap and then put them in the dishwasher to be washed again and when I point out that they don't need to do all of that they get mad at ME for trying to save them time, water, and energy.

WallEx ,

So the rest of your family are catholic?

Sorry, bad joke, had to be done.

Etienne_Dahu ,

Maybe they are a big family of Dishwasher Muslims and use it 5 times a day.

cyberpunk007 ,

Not what I was expecting, totally worth the watch lol.

cactusupyourbutt ,

the fact that I watched this clearly indicates that I am getting old lol

BrownianMotion ,
@BrownianMotion@lemmy.world avatar

I hate this guy with a passion. He is not intelligent, but hell he sure likes to speak down to you like his shit doesn't stink.

Speaking of dishwashers, this is the last thing you should be listening about from him, given the shitshow of a video he made which even had Bosch and other manufacturers contact him and tell him how incorrect he was.

astrsk ,
@astrsk@kbin.run avatar

Yeah definitely DO NOT regularly clean the filter if your machine has one. Never ever ever experiment with different amounts of detergent to determine the correct amount to use and absolutely NEVER be mindful of the orientation of the dishes as you load them.

Get over yourself.

boonhet ,

Given that a lot of other people are praising him and his videos, could you maybe point out some of these mistakes?

I know it could probably be googled, but it's always better to come to a discussion with information if you're going to criticize someone or something (to be fair - it's also better to have information if you're praising someone or something)

scrooge ,

What happened with Bosch?

BearOfaTime ,

Hahahahahahahaha haha, right, right.

Can you be more wrong?

computerscientistII ,

And in Germany we don't have those without filters.

On the other hand, we have 230V and our dish washers's sump only have half the sump size at most, they heat up the water in no time, even if it's cold to start with. So we've got that going for us which is nice.
