Edit 2 It’s 17:15 now and it has been on 0 minutes for 3 full minutes…
Those aren’t minutes, they’re drying time units, which last as long as the dryer decides it wants them to last on any particular day.
Now I’m confused, how many drying time units are in a galactic standard week?
Depends how wet the week is.
I can understand the confusion, drying time units is actually a measure of distance not speed.
I much prefer hang drying.
- Less wear on the clothes
- Basically no energy cost (technically not correct but it’s really whatever)
- Free humidifying during the dry winters
- Fairly satisfying thing to do while listening to a podcast
The primary downside is that it’s no fun to do it when it rains, neither indoors or outdoors, but as long as you time your laundry well enough, it’s all good.
It’s not always the fault of the device. It estimate the time based on the download speed in this moment, but it can’t know that in the next moment your ISP server slows down or that your AV stops the download for some times to analyze a suspicios file, things like this to make your day enjoyable. Because of this, never automatic updates. I recieve an notification if there is an update in the queue and so I can update when I like in a spare time.
Had the exact same experience the other day. Fuck these machines, fuck printers, fuck microwave ovens, fuck software updates and fuck time estimates in general.
