Almost 30 more minutes of dishwasher.
This popped up on my yt feed and I had no idea what a legit informative video it would be.
What did you learn?
It’s just a tips and how-to on how to make your dishwasher work best. Run the sink tap until hot before you start, use cheap powder or gel soap, make sure to use the dispenser and use a bit of soap in the prewash cycle. Great channel though, very deep dives into technology, primarily home goods or oddities.
As someone who’s worked on industrial machinery for food production all my life, I’m consistently amazed at what a simple dishwasher can do, and how it can do so for YEARS with essentially zero maintenance. Cleaning food residue is HARD.
I just bought a new one recently (the old one wasn’t actually broken, despite being very old, so I gave it away), and I can’t help but open it up every once in a while to admire it. How much time these devices save us!Depends on your luck. I’ve had to repair my Samsung dishwasher 3 times in 5 years and yet my parents bought the cheapest possible model 15 years ago and it operates lawlessly and does a better job at cleaning.
Don’t buy anything Samsung. Shit company with bad products designed to fail after warranty expires.
Samsung
Well there’s your problem right there.
Honestly, I worked as a house cleaner for a bit, and any samsung dishwasher I had to deal with was either broken or new.
Samsung and LG have both bitten me. Bosch, however, is doing great.
Aahhg I had a bosch in my old apartment that was just the right amount of quiet to fall asleep to. I really miss it… ;-;
Yeah quality of the brand really matters. Samsung makes some of the worst appliances. And older appliances really were just built better in many cases.
operates lawlessly
as long as it doesn’t get caught!
Jokes aside, I’ve only ever owned European-made appliances. My old dishwasher was a Bosch that came with the apartment when we bought it, I don’t know how old it was, but I guess around 20 years, and again, I replaced but it was still working.
I don’t buy appliances at big box stores though, I always go to a dedicated shop where they kinda select their offerings, as they also have to deal with support calls. There’s one in my city that, despite being a fraction of a big box store, moves A LOT of merchandise, so they also have a lot of experience, so far I’ve been quite happy.it operates lawlessly
It’s the Wild West out here!
But being this is a 44dBA washer, the most powerful dishwasher in the world and will wash your plate clean off, you’ve gotta ask yourself a question: “Do I feel lucky?”
Well, do ya, cup?
All cups are bastards.
the fact that I watched this clearly indicates that I am getting old lol
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.
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.
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)
Hahahahahahahaha haha, right, right.
Can you be more wrong?
what the fuck i don’t even own a dishwasher, why did i watch all of this
So you could tell me, the person who doesn’t even run the dishwasher, all about it
I can’t watch. Plz
THE WATER INSIDE IS RECYCLED!!!
Same with me. Not sure where it goes though… Maybe in your dishwasher!
What a time to be alive
I love Lemmy’s love for Technology Connections. It just feels so right!
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.
I would advise against the water soluble wrapper pods since they’re iirc a major contributor to microplastics in our water
Not what I was expecting, totally worth the watch lol.
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.
So the rest of your family are catholic?
Sorry, bad joke, had to be done.
Maybe they are a big family of Dishwasher Muslims and use it 5 times a day.
Does Technology Connections sell shirts? In most of his recent videos he has worn a black shirt with zoomed in RGB pixels from a digital display and I’ve been looking for it everywhere because I work in a related industry.
I just googled “BASF T-Shirt” and immediately found the one he is wearing in this video (and he wear it in a couple of other videos recently)
Thanks, I think the RGB shirt might be custom to him because the same image is his YouTube channel’s profile header image.
30 minutes in: “And you don’t have to change anything if your dishwasher is working for you. But honestly, you’re probably not watching this if things are working for you.”
Me: I live my life the way I want damn it!
I dont even own a dishwasher but I watched the whole thing!
My man is on another dishwasher rant. This is the short vid
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.
Check out the one he does on air conditioners it’s pretty awesome.
He will always be known to me as the toaster guy that taught me how to make a quick $100
Popcorn button dude for me
Heat pumps…
And latent heat of vaoprization!
How did he teach you to make a quick 100 bucks?
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
Awesome, I was looking for something to wind down with after today’s shitty ass day at work.
Just let the video wash your troubles away
I’ve never had a job where we celebrate Shitty Ass Day. What’s that like?
Nowhere near as fun as you’d think.
Not enough ass, too much shit.
I appreciate this retread of previously covered content. And holy shit he lost a ton of weight.
Technology Connections understands the weakness of the flesh.
This is simultaneously dark and hilarious. Kudos.
I actually watched this video and decided to clean the filter. Pretty gnarly.
My condolences.
