          Google’s keyboard is the absolute worst for that, tried using it for a bit but I’m back to SwiftKey which isn’t absolutely insane (and which has more customization options too)

          I still miss Swype too, and hopefully one of the open source keyboard apps will get good enough to replace all of them soon enough

          If they have their keyboard set to a different language but type in English anyway, then it learns English words exactly how they’re spelled. Which means they probably spelled Window with capital W at some point and then it got autocorrected to that exact spelling.

              I’m pretty sure I turned that off ~8-10 years ago and Google has just remembered it ever since

              Also I use swipe typing so that probably helps too

              Sometimes your keyboard also remembers when exactly you use certain words - like in the beginning of sentences, which most keyboards will capitalize by default.

              I hate the whole “its” being converted to “it’s” no matter what thing, but what I hate more is when I teach the keyboard a word, and it STILL won’t let me use it. Taught my keyboard “that’d” and it would autocorrect it to “that’s” every time. And unlike other words, if I went back and manually corrected it back, it wouldn’t leave it, it’d force it back to “that’s” again and refuse to let me change it. Come to think of it, it did that with “it’d” to “it’s” too. Eventually I just switched to a different keyboard with much less aggressive autocorrect, since I still need the autocorrect to type with any semblance of speed due to minor coordination issues.

              My old keyboard abruptly started autocorrecting more typos into what I was saying than it corrected toward the end anyway. Probably some shoddy attempt to implement AI auto correction.

              Gboard does a pretty good job at highlighting your errors correctly in context. I’d guess it’s iPhone users fucking up grammar that much.

                  Which is due to missing context at the end of a sentence, probably. Therefore it just chooses the most likely, but often not best, word.
                  Workaround: Disable autocorrect, and check for underlined words afterwards.

        That, or if they’re like me, the person is just very tired. If I am extremely tired, I basically just hit shift on every word and don’t care about it. In such cases, I might fix my posts and comments in the morning, or even delete them if they feel too much like “what the fuck did I write there”.
        Another key to identify those is double words.

      It might come from languages like German where nouns are capitalized. Even in English proper nouns are capitalized so I don’t see why that bothers you so much

      Personally I typically type like that (and like this) due to typing like I speak

      Stilted with many gaps

      Sometimes with a lot of parentheses due to the scatter shot nature of my brain

      But that’s a conversation for another time

        Yeah, I see people use commas as pauses where commas definitely aren’t supposed to go and that make no sense whatsoever (to me, anyway, but I know not everyone has the same education, resources, etc.) all the time. I think that’s part of what’s going on here.

        It sounds like our brains work very similarly, fellow random-parentheses-using scatterbrain! I’m both glad I’m not alone and also sad that you experience this frustrating shit, too, haha. I feel for you.

        I much prefer the way you break up your thoughts, by the way. It flows better, makes more sense, and reads in my head voice more like it would if you were speaking (to me, anyway!)

    That’s because the dishwater looks disgusting and your dishwasher uses the same dishwater for 20 minutes.

    Technology Connections did a video about dishwashers, including one showing the soapy food water sloshing out of it.

    There’s a reason they stay opaque.

        me too, but I was disappointed it didn’t really make much difference. Though I did figure out recently I might have just been under-dosing. Really hard to tell on my dishwasher as it provides no instructions on quantities, and the fill lines don’t make and sense because while it has the 2 receptacles for the pre-wash and wash settings, they’re tiny shallow dimples that both reside in the same larger cavity for power but have no dividing wall between them. So if you fill the wash section up to the minimum (which is a surprisingly large amount), it necessarily spills over in to the prewash section. It also has no recommendations for differing levels, despite having minimum and max fill lines, so I don’t know when I would fill to one or the other and then to top it all off, no mention of the concept of filling anything at all in to the pre-wash section, despite having some kind of pre-wash settings and a dedicated spot in to which you’d pour the powder for pre-wash. It also makes no sense for that pre-wash section to be there, because in the video and on older dishwashers, the wash and pre-wash recepticals have their own doors that flip open at different times, hence pre-wash, but on mine, both of the little indentations in to which you could pour powder are in the same cavity with the same door. It’s weird, they clearly didn’t expect anyone in this day and age would still use powder even if it’s theoretically better. I’ve been making up a quantity to put in to the pre-wash, assuming it helps but really no idea.

          Mine has two cavities, as well. I just fill one and sprinkle a little on the door for pre-wash. Seems to do well.

    People load heavy metal pots into a dishwasher and bang them around.

    A window would not survive unless they use some expensive overbuilt impact resistant glass.

    There are plenty of dishwashers with windows. Unlike the others devices mentioned, you don’t need to see what’s in there. The window is just for fun. They make you pay for fun.

      You don’t need to see what’s going on in a washing machine either, yet the fun window is usually included. Maybe washing machines were invented before paid dlcs. Or a see through water splash machine looks bad in a kitchen.

        I think I remember reading somewhere, that people simply didn’t trust the washing machines and therefore didn’t use them. Adding a window made it possible to see what’s going on and build trust in the machines

    Work at a dishwasher factory. We used to make a model with windows, they were really expensive parts, which meant that they were really expensive dishwashers for a feature that really isn’t useful.

    It makes sense in a microwave or oven because you can check in and make sure it’s all good, or pull it out if it’s done. You can’t do that with a dishwasher, it just runs it’s course.

    Plus all you could see in the thing was splashing soap water.

      Also, it wouldn’t really look nice - a typical stainless steel dishwasher looks clean - a microwave and oven (hopefully) look clean and tidy through the window. But a windowed dishwasher? Half full of dirty dishes for most of the day, and even when the dishes are clean they won’t look neater than a plain stainless steel finish (or whatever finish you prefer)

    How has no one mentioned the randomly capitalized words, space before commas, and just general shittyness of grammar? I find it hard to believe someone would write like that without consciously making it as bad as possible just so people would comment on it. And I’m in just as much disbelief that no one has said anything about it.
