    Yeah some of us have to hand wash our wi-fi the old fashioned way.

    Don’t worry, like smart TVs, wifi connected devices will become cheaper than their alternatives soon

    How does one wash wi-fi? Any special detergents or temp settings?

      you put the router in the washing machine. of course, you have to poke a hole for the cables, since the router has no wifi when its turned off.

      then, you turn the washing machine on. water should be enough but if you want to be safe you can put salt.

      when the machine beeps you’ll have successfully washed the wifi away from your router.

    It’s easier to go to a laundromat than to deal with any washer.

      Good look when the nearest one is half an hour away.

        The nearest one from me is an hour’s walk, yet I just get on the bus or carry my stuff. 🤷 Nothing stopping you but you.

          I would rather hand wash my clothes than walk for miles to get it done.

    I actually can’t believe anybody would be stupid enough to think that Wi-Fi ever needed to be on a washing machine. That is literally a idea designed to milk extra money from sucker’s.

    But what if you are privacy conscious and poor?

    I bought an “analog” washing machine (I can’t believe I just wrote that) because of simplicity. The more complicated something is, the more difficult it is to repair, and the more potential points of failure there are.

    I want a Speed Queen. They’re way more expensive than your standard machines, but there’s a reason you find them in laundromats everywhere. They’re built to be abused.

    What do people even do with their wifi appliances? Throw the load in and say Alexa start the washer? How is that easier than setting it yourself?

    We bought an “analog” washer and dryer for my wife and I when we moved into our first home. Hasn’t failed us yet. Her parents have a fancy set and they’ve had to get it fixed a few times already. Seems like the simpler the better for home appliances
