@MieleUSA My sister buys the cheapest dryer she can and it just works. Only for like 5 years or so, but that sounds amazing to me. Scrubbing filters. Vacuuming multiple vents. But I still hear the common cry from all people in the house. “Dryers beeping again!”

@_steveCollins Hello Stephen, We are sorry to hear about this frustrating issue that you are encountering with your Miele dryer. Please see the FAQs section starting on page 50 here: bit.ly/418eW3q. Please let us know if you still need assistance after trying these steps.

@MieleUSA Error 66 makes your dryer impossible to recommend. I would throw this thing out the window if I could.

@MieleUSA I am about 5 minutes into my fifth attempt and it feels solid. At least solid enough to leave the laundry room. I spent $1300 on a dryer that needs more babying than an actual baby.

@MieleUSA 4th attempt

@MieleUSA I literally do every one of those steps between every drying cycle. I am on my third attempt today to do one load in the dryer.

@SusanArendt Hahahaha. How soon you forget. Or maybe not soon. It’s been 20 years. But it hasn’t changed!

So long, and thanks for all the fish. @stephencollins@mastodon.world

@cabel So was Hitler.

We call that a tool-assisted speedrun

@danielpunkass @mantonsblog Ha. And I probably made less than $100 all told.

@_steveCollins @mantonsblog Ah! I guess you must be at the $2K tier ;p I am still waiting for mine.

@danielpunkass @mantonsblog Got my Apple settlement today via Venmo. Probably 10x more than I ever even made in the App Store.

@SusanArendt Every year or so I have a “President’s in Peril” weekend where I watch the Has Fallen movies, White House Down, and Air Force One.

@SusanArendt Just like being back home.

@StephenMerchant @DerrenBrown Wow. Poster looks exactly like this.

If you’ve never seen the extraordinary ⁦⁦@DerrenBrown⁩ live I urge you to catch his magnificent ‘Showman’ - an evening of sorcery that’s both mind-blowing and moving.

@brad_frost I know all the good Phil Collins videos. I try to drum a full concert sometimes and it is exhausting.

@_steveCollins What a phenomenal video! Thanks for sharing.

What song should I play drums to?

@gruber @joinmastodon @KeithOlbermann @RMac18 @drewharwell @atrupar @donie Burning $44 billion to own the libs.

Accounts suspended today, apparently for criticizing Elon Musk or Twitter or who knows why: @joinmastodon @KeithOlbermann @RMac18: NY Times reporter on Twitter beat @drewharwell: WaPo reporter on Twitter beat @atrupar: Indie journalist @donie: Elon’s jet-tracker Free speech!

@danielpunkass @vandadnp You need to find him on mastodon to keep this up.

Speaking of dingalings. I want to remind everybody that you should never, ever, ever, work with Vandad Nahavandipoor (@VandadNP). He's a bad guy.

@siracusa @codinghorror Point Break.

@codinghorror I think there might be one for Dirty Dancing? Also, Red Dawn. Criminal.

What are the most mediocre (and thus, unnecessary) modern movie remakes of great movies? For example The Thing, Total Recall, Robocop? I had literally *forgotten* those modern remakes existed!

@hotdogsladies I’ll follow anything with Lizzie Caplan.

@TheLeisureProf You can’t beat bouncing with Tigger.
