Almost 30 more minutes of dishwasher.
Not what I was expecting, totally worth the watch lol.
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
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!
The fast mode also uses more water and electricity than the three hour heavy wash mode.
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.
what the fuck i don’t even own a dishwasher, why did i watch all of this
And this is the short version!
Link! Now! I have a job I’m not worried about let’s go!
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.
Thanks!

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

Top notch content. Right up there with his popcorn button on the microwave video.
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.
And the reheat button on microwave
I’m still mad that I have a shitty microwave now
Same! I’m lowkey tempted to get a fancy one now, but deep down I know it just isn’t worth it.
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.
Link?
oh that was a good one. I should go back and rewatch it
Old shit?: Bimetallic strips and clever designs.
New shit: Read the manual!
I’m still salty that my microwave’s pizza button is one of the fake ones.
Buy an air fryer.
And even more on Connextras!
Is this who I think this is?
OH SHIT YEAH MIDWESTERN TECHNOLOGY PRAGMATIST VIDEO HAS DROPPED!!!
edit: Its a remix?
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.
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.
Just miss the jazz outro with the flubs and snarky captions.
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.
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!
Awesome, I was looking for something to wind down with after today’s shitty ass day at work.
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.
Just let the video wash your troubles away
With powdered dish soap, not that pod shit.
Yeah, tried it for the first time, its eye opening
My man is on another dishwasher rant. This is the short vid
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.
This man is a saint. His channel is amazing.
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.
