A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Every microwave I've had, you hit the power button then the number corresponding to the power level you want.
Really? Every microwave I’ve had you hit a number and it’s cooks your food for that many minutes. No power option, but you can set it prior to heating your food.
They are saying that. Its a button on the microwave, you hit it before or after the time input, but its not usually a repeatedly hit button. On mine I would hit the time I wanted, then power, then the number for the percent power I want like 5 is 50%, then start.
I do have a potatoe button that works by pressing it over and over to select weight though.
