I seriously hate touch interfaces on appliances. Especially on cooking tops. Please stop it. It's not cool. It's not modern. It's a nuisance. Bring back physical dials and buttons.

@reina but isn't it cool how sleek and modern they are? and how they don't work if your hands are a little dirty? but certainly that never happens in the kitchen.

wait you didn't intend to *cook*, did you!?

@tarajdactyl @reina my accelerationist instincts keep telling me that if they started making these for restaurant kitchens i think we might have a real chance at a revolution

@apophis @reina i suspect they are marketed for shiny kitchens that never get used. hopefully nobody will ever buy them for restaurant kitchens.

@tarajdactyl @reina shiny kitchens for "luxury apartments" that are designed only to appeal to speculators and landlords

...hence why they need to be illegal because no market force is going to go against this no matter how bad it actually is

@apophis @reina gosh how i hate that phrase. "luxury apartment" just means overpriced and impractical.

it means they took perfectly fine apartments and "renovated" them, with cheap crappy veneer of luxury on top of absolutely worthless junk so that they can charge "market rates"

@tarajdactyl @apophis For some reason I can't see @apophis's replies on my end? I can't seem to find your instance in either my personal blocklist or the instance's blocklist, nor have I muted or blocked you so idk what's going on?

@reina @apophis oh very weird. they mention you in every toot, so you definitely should see them.

@tarajdactyl @reina it doesn't look like either of our instances blocks the other so i guess it's just one of those random federation failures that happens sometimes

@tarajdactyl @apophis Yeah, I can see them by checking your replies from your instance perspective, so I've seen them, but it's really weird yeah
