Nah my pet peeve is people who don't learn how microwaves work or what power level settings do so they just blast everything at 100% and wonder why everything is hotter than the surface of the sun on the outside and ice cold on the inside

I got myself a new portable air conditioner, and set it up on Wednesday. I've been running it for only a few hours each day since then, and last night (Thursday) it shut off with a blinking error message, telling me that the moisture tank is full. I quote from the manual : "Water may need to be drained if running in dehumidify mode or is the unit is operating in Cool mode and running under very hot/humid conditions for a prolonged period of time." 3-4 hours a day for literally two days? Also it doesn't go any lower than 18 Celsius, which is 2 degrees lower than normal room temperature, so what really is the point? Also, my parents gave me a brand new pair of headphones for Christmas, with a cord long enough that I can sit comfortably on my bed and watch TV without bothering anyone. The left side no longer works. It hasn't even been six months. Why is everything so irritating?

Is this the first time in your life where you have encountered condensation? Also how cold are you trying to make your room that 18C isn't cold enough? Maybe you should move your bed in to a walk in fridge.

My dishwasher beeps seven times when it's finished. I always wonder how they settled on that number. Like 'shall we have eight beeps? No that's too many, that's overkill!' 'how about six?' 'that's not enough! Are you loving crazy?! We're meant to be trying to help out customers!!' Was there a committee? People wrangling over it on some stupid document in a shared drive somewhere? Did it have to be signed off by the Head of Beeps? I guess I'll never know.

FFT posted:I kinda do tbh After our last dishwasher kicked it, we went out of our way to get one that we liked. And we loved it! But like all dishwashers I've ever encountered, eventually they just stop washing the dishes and instead begin to encrust them with filth and bake it on. We tried loving everything, all the rinse aids and detergents and tips and tricks from the internet, and every time it worked for a day or two and then our glasses would start getting The Crust again. We're rinsing and clearing every bit of dishware we're putting in there, DOUBLY so now that we're trying to prevent the crust, so WHERE is the crust coming from? Does the dishwasher now make its own? Why can I put a load of glasses in and get food crust baked into them? There was no FOOD. So at this point it's become the Rinse-and-Dry box and we just scrub every dish by hand which isn't really conducive to how we live our loving lives in my house but I'd rather do that than try to scratch out some horrible, hard-baked crust of indeterminate origin from the bottom edge of a pint glass before enjoying a beer. It's maddening, though.

We've like gutted it and cleaned every inch, that's the part that boggles us. It's built to be very easy to maintain, and we do it rigorously because we have... sensitive digust reactions regarding dishes. It's like it's manifesting food bits from ether

Other than my parents home growing up, I've never lived in a place with a dishwasher, so besides seeming bourgeois to me, now I'm hearing they don't even work?? You could fit like THREE shelves in that space!! Think of the storage!! This post brought to you by tiny apartment gang

People who use their phones like this: on speaker, holding it flat in front of their mouth to speak, bottom end directly in their ear when the other person is speaking. Absolutely baffling.

It could be the waste disposal if you have one or simply stuff caught in a U bend causing a blockage.

dirby posted:I don't think this would solve your problem, but if your dishwasher tries to detect how dirty things are, pre-rinsing them visibly clean may often be counterproductive. That's interesting, I'm not sure if it does that but I'll look at the manual. I know it had some fancy features we immediately never availed ourselves of, so could be! Also, pet peeve time: The weird loving sounds that happen when you have your headphones on, that immediately stop when you take the headphones off to figure out what the gently caress that sound is. I'm just trying to work on music and I keep hearing what sounds like a dog attacking a cat, and whatever it is ceases the moment I listen directly to it. Moments pass, I give up, start my poo poo again and now there's knocking. Nobody at the door. Is someone slipping terrible samples into my DAW?

I started backing away from online stuff and getting involved in more actual real life LGBT+ activism again when a young trans man pointed out that no one asked trans youth what they think of he/him they/them stuff in bios. My heart basically shattered when he said that what the "allies" are doing in their haste to get their "one of the good ones" sticker is forcing kids who are not yet out to use the wrong pronouns on social media.

I wish Teams was smart enough to filter out the mouth breathers. I'm watching some guy deliver a tutorial, and whenever he fucks around changing screens or whatever he's just loving panting and snorting and it's gross.

Disclaimer: White cishet male, adjust your reaction as necessary. I think it's fine to put your pronouns in your bio/profile, as a show of solidarity. It is not OK to force or pressure or expect others into doing the same, some people are more private or perhaps not out yet. And it's certainly not OK to think that it's going to save the world somehow.
