Seriously, what in the world those people were thinking? I've only understood one button on our new microwave which is "add 30 seconds of cooking at full power lol" while all the others are a total mystery to me.

I the same story: why setting time of kitchen devices that aren't used mainly for that (hoven for eg) always looks like you need to know the fucking secret code of a video game like "press this button 3 second, this other one twice then spint on yourself and maybe you'll manage to set the minutes."

You can probably write a stupid website for generating microwave control panels by picking random icon in forkawesome and the result would be as usable as the modern ones.

@bram Well it's the truth, isn't it? What other parameters are there to buy a microwave? All of them have kind of the same properties. The differentiating factors are: (1) does it do grill as well?, (2) price and (3) the buttons.I picked mine to have the easiest interface. A few buttons to select modes (and that have text on them instead of hieroglyphs), a wheel to add time and a start button.

@stevenroose when you are at the end of a day of buying shitload of things in ikea because it's the first rent without stuff in it and you also need to pick a hoven, a fridge and a washing machin, you don't fucking care about those details, you just want a microwave in your price range and that's all, you are already exhausted and you have other priorities

@bram everyone banging on about "omg there's a baby button", that's for heating baby food. Just like the one for heating cow food and the one for heating fish food and the one for heating a stunning sunset over the ocean.

@Murkrow @bram Just like the bottom-left one is "infiltrate a high-secure facility by dancing through moving lasers".

@romrom @bram bottom right is "escape a high-security facility by dancing through the moving lasers, then stare in rapturous wonder at the sun setting over the ocean as you realise, maybe for the first time, the true value of your freedom". Which is pretty advanced for a microwave.

@bram What the microwave should do is just accept the time and then run for the time selectedIdk how it's so hardOur last microwave required you to press a "time" button before you input the timeWhyTyping the time and then pressing start is literally the only thing people do with the microwaveWhy does it now require an extra button press

@bram Wow chill out, I'm sorry man.. Perhaps if you can't handle an ironic comment on your 6-post microwave rant, you should not fill your followers' feeds with a 6-post microwave rant..

@ocean @bram mine's the same, apparently its designers thought people change microwaving power as often as they set time (which is completely false)
