Randy Bachman's son takes a break from exposing the evil faggot who turned his pedophilia into fraudulent "gender dysphoria studies" and inexplicably praising Bono, and instead tells the story of how washing machines no longer do the job you pay them for.
The machine allowed no independent control over water volume, cycle time, or water temperatures. It only allowed selection of a preset computerized cycle—none of which got your clothes clean.It's worth an aside to note that most people use far more laundry detergent than they actually need to and indeed agitated water is enough to clean everyday soiled clothes without any detergent whatsoever. On a totally unrelated note, why do you think companies are trying to push you to use pods and tablets (where you only get to use the discrete doses they prescribe) rather than liquid (where you have almost 100% control over how many atoms are poured into the machine)The newfangled LG, it turned out, also skimped on water and power usage (the cycles all included down time, during which the machine just stopped spinning to let the clothes soak). So, no agitator, not enough water, and not enough activity.
Yet more irritating was the reason it skimped on water and power: it was trying to stop global warming. Oops—I mean "climate change". It was "environmentally friendly". Except it wasn't, because you usually had to run at least two cycles to get your clothes clean. That's right: you had to use the same amount of water in the end anyway, and double the electricity.
And so—not for the first time—I had stumbled upon yet another example of technological "progress" which exacerbated the very (pseudo) problem it purported to solve. The new useless LG "Save the World!" piece of garbage was the home equivalent of Hollywood stars taking private jets to a carbon reduction conference in Switzerland.
