The technology connections guy has a video where he puts a window in one to show how it works

[-] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 140 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

And it looks like sudsy vomit recirculating over your dishes. Ain't nobody wanna see that.

And everyone who clicked on the video.

There's also just no point. What exactly would one hope to accomplish in having a window in their dishwasher? With a microwave, you can monitor food and make sure it's not boiling over, smoking, exploding, etc. With an oven, you can monitor goods to see if they're done or not. But a dishwasher? Unlike a cooking device, there's no harm in leaving dishes in the dishwasher too long. You don't need to pull them out at just the exact moment they're fully clean.

Unless you're one of those weirdos that cooks things in their dishwasher, I can't see any reason why you would need a window in one.

[-] tja@sh.itjust.works 18 points 1 week ago

Okay, but why then is there a window in my washing machine?

[-] WoodScientist@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 week ago

Because people like watching the spinny go spin.

[-] AFKBRBChocolate@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

Usually only on front-loading models so you can see if there's water in it before trying to open the door.

[-] M137@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Which is what most of the world uses. And it's also kinda nice to look at, which isn't the case for dishwashers.

Minutefoods does a video with the camera inside the dishwasher, also pretty cool

[-] ndupont@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

And my Amazon order for pre-wash detergent tells me it was already 4 years ago, OMG. It took 4 years to go through that bottle, we're a family of 4.

[-] whodatdair@lemmy.blahaj.zone 77 points 1 week ago

Technology connections put a window in one, it’s just nasty water swirling around and a lot of people would be grossed out by that so they hide it lol

[-] CileTheSane@lemmy.ca 18 points 1 week ago

I also don't want to be looking at the dirty dishes throughout the week as I'm waiting for the machine to be full enough to run.

[-] assembly@lemmy.world 71 points 1 week ago

They don’t want you to know about the dish gnomes forced to work in tight spaces under terrible conditions.

[-] GaetanLaberge@lemm.ee 27 points 1 week ago
[-] kibiz0r@midwest.social 21 points 1 week ago

I think it Was on purPose To trigger Some Grammar nazis.

[-] salacious_coaster@infosec.pub 13 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

A grammar Nazi takes time out of their day to give someone crap about a comma splice or argue about whether or not it's appropriate to capitalize the first word after a colon. OPs like this are not "Grammar Nazi" fodder. It's just language anarchy normalized by terminally online brainrot.

I guess it's a stylistic choice to express emphasis instead of using italics or bold text.

[-] zakobjoa@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Maybe they're not a native speaker? German for instance capitalizes all nouns. You'll often find weird capitalizations in my (mobile) writing when my phone didn't correctly guess what I wanted to type. At least some words in the OPs text are German nouns (e.g. See, All), while others aren't.

Reading though the comments I think something I said earlier today is going to be true. Technology Connections is going to be the XKCD of video explainers.

[-] BluJay320@lemmy.blahaj.zone 37 points 1 week ago

this Capitalization is Giving me a Fucking stroke

[-] LanguageIsCool@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

Your comment made me reread the post and it seems intentional to stress those words

You don't want to see it.

For the purposes of saving water, your dishes are repeatedly washed in dirty greasy brown water before rinsing. This does not look good, but in fact it is alright.

[-] LordWiggle@lemmy.world 29 points 1 week ago

Not true. They are hiding the fact that there's a group of tiny gnomes forced to work the dishes. No one wants to see tiny slaves in their kitchen. They are pathetic and do not fit the rest of the kitchen ambiance.

[-] Ceruleum@lemmy.wtf 10 points 1 week ago

Even worse! They're all nude!

It's to keep people from seeing the reality of recycled dishwater being sprayed at the plates you eat off of.

I have a window in mine. It's great, I can see when something's not cleaning right and I fix it. Saves on redos.

[-] MudMan@fedia.io 9 points 1 week ago

Same. I had a tiny countertop one with a little window on it.

On the one hand I get that people with large dishwashers don't want to learn how many times the same goopy water is recycled to splash over the things they put in their mouths, but it's kinda mesmerizing, if I'm being honest.

My washer and dryer have tinted windows. I have no idea why. I'm guessing their chief designer drives a heavily modded Scion though.

[-] LanguageIsCool@lemmy.world 22 points 1 week ago
[-] Catoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 14 points 1 week ago

It’s because watching a bunch of food water swirl around for half an hour is gross.

[-] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

I saw a see through dishwasher at a department store when i was a kid. a demo thingy. it was magical

[-] I_Fart_Glitter@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

Like those cows with the portal in their side that they bring around to elementary schools to show kids how chambered stomachs work! (Just now realizing this might not be a universal experience and may have had to do with my elementary school's proximity to UC Davis (Agriculturally focused college).

[-] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

Why do they call it oven when you of in the cold food of out hot eat the food?

[-] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

The reason you dont is because it would probably disturb people to see their dishes slamming into each other.

[-] Ohmmy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 week ago

Maybe they would then stop putting the fucking knives into the fucking dish washer.

My old dishwasher was malfunctioning and I bypassed the door switch to see what was going on inside. That was a big mistake, water in my face and on the ceiling lol.

[-] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

Specifically in your face because one of the nozzles on the middle spray arm is aimed outwards to hit the latch on the detergent dispenser door.

[-] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 week ago

Hell yeah ... just like washing machines ... I'd love to be able to see what's going on side a dish washer ... even put LED lights on inside it and do a light show ... or control the lighting so that you can turn it on and off if you want

[-] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

The dishes want some privacy in their bath.

[-] fahfahfahfah@lemmy.billiam.net 8 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I was once helping a previous landlord install a new dishwasher and during the first test cycle I opened it and he yelled “NO WHAT ARE YOU DOING”. Turns out he thought they filled up with water like a clothes washer. A window really would have helped him.

[-] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

A surprising amount of people labor under the assumption that they lock shut somehow and the door can't be opened while the machine is running which is bad in case "something goes wrong."

A) No they don't, and you can easily open the door as you have observed, and

B) If the thing were having some manner of hypothetical catastrophic meltdown, why would you want to open the door as your first impulse anyway?

People also near universally have a serious misconception about how much water a modern dishwasher uses, or rather how much it doesn't. Everyone unanimously insists to me that they can hand-wash the same amount of dishes using less water than a dishwasher. No, you can't. They think it's running water constantly while it's in operation and don't understand that it fills with 1.5-2 gallons of water and recirculates that through each phase of the wash, usually resulting in only two or three fills.
