All the parts they used internally are made to be as cheap as possible. The rollers that support the drum, and the belt tensioner, use low quality bushings that wear out prematurely. The extra fiction the parts caused would cause the belt to fail too. I’d have to tear the entire thing apart every two years or so and replace these parts to keep it running, far more often than I’d have to repair any other dryer brand. The sensor dry cycle on it never properly dried the clothes, and the steam function on it didn’t work very well either.

A friend of mine has a Samsung dryer, washer, fridge, dishwasher, and microwave. He hates all of them with a passion for similar reasons.

I don’t hate everything Samsung as I’m quite happy with their tablets and watches, but I’d never purchase another one of their appliances.

Any appliance made by Samsung is pure garbage. I just got rid of one of their dryers and I’m very glad to have it gone.

That’s why he made Linux https://www.harpercollins.com/products/just-for-fun-linus-torvaldsdavid-diamond

There are so many movies and shows with bad audio. I just leave the subtitles on all the time.

I know someone that used to work at Fred Meyer and one of her duties was to take the bag recycling around the back of the store and put it in the dumpster.

They had to modify the vehicle for the movie as the stock speedometer in the delorean only went to 85 mph.

That wouldn’t work with every dishwasher I’ve ever had. They all start the cycle by draining any liquid in the dishwasher before they fill to run the first pre-wash cycle.

It didn’t work

Why would anyone bother running it after March 2010? I quit using it almost immediately when the buyout occurred.

Same here. The Personal Capital tools are amazing. I really hope Empower doesn’t mess it up because I’ve put a ton of work into getting everything the way I want it.

It will definitely take more weight to tip over than it takes to tip Guam.

That’ll give you the same level experience as a $450,000 space flight on Virgin Galactic so I’d say you’re doing alright.

The number of bugs I’ve encountered on HPE server hardware that cause full system lockups is insane. They’ve sent out engineering and collected logs and released new firmwares based on bugs I’ve found and been able to reliably replicate. Unfortunately, it took years of tickets, and wasted weekends to finally get them to admit it was their issue. Their iLO firmware is pretty buggy and I’ve had many problems with it over the years. To be fair Dell’s iDRAC has bugs too, and their lifecycle controllers leave much to be desired, but thankfully none have been showstoppers like I’ve experienced with HPE gear.

HPE’s storage systems have been quite problematic for me as well. I ran some of their EVA P6000 arrays back in the day and had too many scary moments keeping those online. I switched to Compellent arrays after that and they were awesome. Unfortunately, Dell retired that line in 2021, so now I’m giving their Powerstore arrays a try and so far the experience has been good.

Their servers and storage systems are absolute garbage.

I see you’ve spoken to my in-laws.

We need you on Nextdoor.

This so true. I’ve had some quotes for Splunk over the years and every one I get is so ridiculously expensive that it can’t even be considered.

Screensharing has improved a lot over the last couple of years. Pipewire and XDG Desktop Portal are the tools you want to look into. You can run an in-browser test of screen sharing at https://mozilla.github.io/webrtc-landing/gum_test.html

It really depends. I did long distance for years during college and we got a place together after college and have been happily together for a very long time now.
