Thermomix TM7 mit großem Touch-Display kommt im April
Vorbestellt werden darf sofort, geliefert werden soll im April: Der Thermomix TM7 ist da. Einige neue Funktionen gibt es sofort - andere erst später.
Picked an extractor hood.
It's easy to choose:
0. The type where you don't bang your head on 100% of the time.
1. No fucking touch buttons
2. No hidden buttons (product design is so mega dumb these days)
3. Stainless steel, because glass breaks, paint chips and rusts and white is ugly
Now you only have one choice if at all and you buy that one. See, easy!
Near full rebuild of the dryer appears to be complete. The replacement of the igniter seems to have restored this to full working order (knock on wood, LOL). Output of the burner measured inside the dryer was showing 100F before the new igniter, now reads 120F. Load of clothes dried in 2 hours; the load prior took 4 hours (heat too low!). #appliance #repair
Hmm, hoping I finally debug the Dryer of Theseus over the next few days, there is not much more to this I can replace. All small change parts (given this is a 1980's dryer), but still would like to get it working fully again.
(latest status: replaced all the temperature sensors, which most certainly were showing age/not reading proper resistance; these are essentially bimetallic switches triggered by temperature; already replaced the motor, the big ticket item; and just replaced the timer, because it was making "interesting" noises -- maybe broken plastic in the cams? But that was not the problem. Next is replacing the igniter, which I think is the likely culprit)

1980's dryer is BACK IN BUSINESS. Maytag DG303. Found some long discontinued part someone was selling on eBay. #righttorepair #appliance #repair
Analyse und Kommentar: Sophos und der gebrochene Schwur
Sophos hat über Jahre Überwachungssoftware auf Systemen seiner Kunden installiert – natürlich im Namen der Sicherheit. Jürgen Schmidt sieht das kritisch.
Listening to Allan Jude talking at @EuroBSDCon about:
Building an #Appliance: Examining the building blocks provided by #FreeBSD to build physical or virtual/cloud appliances.
Drat. Fixed one squealing wheel in the (ancient) dryer, but it's still not running well, and it sounds like the blower wheel is ALSO squealing. Runs for 10 minutes and then thermal shutdown due to overheated blower motor. (note: this dryer was dunked in a plumbing burst... so....) Debugging continues... #appliance #repair
Unexpected dryer rebuild today, LOL. Maytag DG303. Appliance guy says the last year these were made was in 1990. #appliance #repair

Is the toaster an example of technology that really hasn’t been improved upon in the past 70 years? Can you think of anything else that inventors pretty much got right the first time? #toaster #appliance #technology
