I kept burning my food or wait forever for the pan to heat up and I finally understand why. Each knob has a different direction for the Hi and Lo (also why isn’t it Low).

My dryer has a "less dry" setting.

Who likes their laundry done rare?

[–] [email protected] 94 points 1 year ago (2 children)

That actually makes sense for things you want to finish drying on a line so they don’t heat up too much and shrink.

Also for if you enjoy the feeling of cold damp underwear.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Cold damp underwear sucks.

Cold damp socks on the other foot...

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I’m trying to picture wearing a sock on one foot, and underwear on the other…

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

You don't have to imagine, just try it out.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It's the best way to wear both.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's so hard to grow fungi otherwise

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

never been a problem for me

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

You can just pee in your underwear.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I mostly agree with you, but I feel like damp underwear would be awesome if you were someplace that's hot and arid.

Edit: accidently replied to the wrong person

This makes sense... But my washer defaults to this mode and I can't figure out how to change it. By default all my clothes are almost dry.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 year ago

Mine has similar settings but they're named in ways which actually tells you why you'd want them that way: "Ready to Iron", "Ready to Hang" and "Extra Dry", things like that.

It just seemed nuts hooking up a water line to my dryer the first time I got one with steam cycles.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I never hooked mine up because I didn't see much point in steam... But now I kinda want to.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

You can mimic most of the steam features by throwing an ice cube in before running the dryer.

Tell me you didn’t read the manual without telling me you didn’t read the manual.

(I didn’t read mine too, btw)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's useful for when I forget about my laundry and the clothes are already mostly dry, but not completely.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

So they can build a nice layer of mildew?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Some fabrics wrinkle when you allow them to sit in the dryer totally dry. For those you want to take them out and hang them for the last bit so when they reach their driest state they’re hanging and not crumpled within the dryer.
