    My dishwasher has windows.

    I haven’t been able to convince her to use Linux yet.

          If they have their keyboard set to a different language but type in English anyway, then it learns English words exactly how they’re spelled. Which means they probably spelled Window with capital W at some point and then it got autocorrected to that exact spelling.

              Gboard does a pretty good job at highlighting your errors correctly in context. I’d guess it’s iPhone users fucking up grammar that much.

                  Which is due to missing context at the end of a sentence, probably. Therefore it just chooses the most likely, but often not best, word.
                  Workaround: Disable autocorrect, and check for underlined words afterwards.

              Sometimes your keyboard also remembers when exactly you use certain words - like in the beginning of sentences, which most keyboards will capitalize by default.

    My first inclination was blender is critical to see progress as you set the time, ovens can see how brown cookies are but the dishwasher is a fixed cycle and who care… but then I thought about my washer and dryer both having windows for no reason what so ever.

    There are plenty of dishwashers with windows. Unlike the others devices mentioned, you don’t need to see what’s in there. The window is just for fun. They make you pay for fun.

      It is also nice to see if one of the spinners is blocked. Saved me quite a few batches.

      You don’t need to see what’s going on in a washing machine either, yet the fun window is usually included. Maybe washing machines were invented before paid dlcs. Or a see through water splash machine looks bad in a kitchen.

        I think I remember reading somewhere, that people simply didn’t trust the washing machines and therefore didn’t use them. Adding a window made it possible to see what’s going on and build trust in the machines

    Fuck that. I wasn’t sure if all my water jets were working in there so I put my phone in a bag while recording and ran that shit.
