Only if it’s worth fixing instead of replacing the thing outright. If you have a cheap washer, it may be cheaper to just get another, rather than having to call the repairman and get parts.

T156@lemmy.worldto Leopards Ate My Face@lemmy.world•Piss off liberals? Enjoy your diabetes.English2·2 days agoSlightly surprised that there isn’t a requirement to post sources/links.
T156@lemmy.worldtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•Elkay EZS8L, but it does sometimes take time to get super coldEnglish1·2 days agoAny ones that support chilling water generally have filters.
If the filter is blocked, some have a bypass that will routeains water around the filter.
T156@lemmy.worldtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•Elkay EZS8L, but it does sometimes take time to get super coldEnglish3·2 days agoIn general the model of fountain didn’t seem to matter much. It was clear some had been hooked up poorly or just had a poor water supply. But if the fountain was in a newer building or near a gym, then they were good quality.
Could also be that they are poorly maintained.
A lot of the chilled ones have an internal filter what needs changing, or else the water quality/flow varies a lot depending on whether they had a bypass and good pipes.
I believe they call them “flowers”.
T156@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•On July 7, Gemini AI will access your WhatsApp and more. Learn how to disable it on Android.English11·2 days agoGoogle Play is separate from Android. Google likely updates it through that route, rather than relying on manufacturers.
T156@lemmy.worldtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•Wearing socks *is* a social constructEnglish1·3 days agoThey said the child was using to “get out of anything and everything”, including wearing socks, which implicitly argues it to be a bad thing.
The child is more or less saying that because something is a social construct, that means that they do not have to follow it.
T156@lemmy.worldto science@lemmy.world•Exclusive: These universities have the most retracted scientific articlesEnglish3·4 days agoWho did the retraction is also important. An author voluntarily retracting their own paper is different from the journal retracting the paper.
T156@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•[US Politics] How much can Mamdani even do as Mayor? Couldn't the NYC City Coucil just block every progressive thing he tries to do?English4·4 days agoSocialism as in Norway, not Stalin.
It should be pointed out that Norway is not socialist. It’s a social democracy/capitalist country.
T156@lemmy.worldtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•Wearing socks *is* a social constructEnglish212·4 days agoJust because something is a social construct doesn’t mean it’s a bad thing to be ignored.
Being alive is a social construct. Humans decided that some things counted as alive, and other things did not. Nature doesn’t care if a bunch of chemical reactions are happening inside a cell, or in a glass tube. It has no objective definition of “alive”.
XKCD is literally stick figures, for example, and has more or less remained stick figures since its inception.
Sort of? Someone was editing his face to be more round and babylike. This was one of them.
T156@lemmy.worldto Games@sh.itjust.works•Don't buy that cute Switch 2 Piranha Plant camera - it's rubbishEnglish3·7 days agoOn the bright side, the camera/Switch doesn’t use a proprietary connector, so you can plug a lot of cameras into the thing, and it will generally work.
It’s not like the DS days, where if you wanted to plug a microphone in in addition to your headphones, they had a special connector for the mic part.
T156@lemmy.worldto science@lemmy.world•A T. rex with feathers? Scientists say dinosaurs were likely different from what most of us pictureEnglish5·8 days agoExactly, scientists have been saying this forever but evil oversized bipedal crocs sell.
It honestly feels like a marketing issue more than anything. A non-zero amount of people think modern dinosaurs are “boring” because they don’t look like Jurassic Park.
Compared to big fluffy unicorn pigeons that eat each other.
Like people would happily be swooped by a magpie if given the chance.
A knee-high raptor who will happily leap up and bite chunks off of larger prey whilst they’re still alive and kicking seems like it would retain much of the terror.
T156@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Tesla sales drop in Europe for fifth month in a rowEnglish8·8 days agoEve if he suddenly no longer had influence over Tesla, he’s ruined their reputation enough that others have had time to catch up and make better vehicles.
He’s also very particular about the factory and the chocolate it makes. Candy with a hint of gloop sounds about as appealing as Gloop fudge, and Wonka may just chuck out the whole batch.
Wonka didn’t defy the laws of reality just so he could cut corners in the factory.
