The Induction Industry Is Paying HN Influencers to Gush over Induction Stoves (2023) Tongue in cheek, but nowadays it's so hard to establish what is a genuine appraisal and what isn't..

Yeah really, that's why the smart thing to do is to attack the other side first haha. Also the anti gas stove thing feels like the most blatantly astroturfed indoctrination project in quite a while.

  Still can't understand the OUTRAGE. And I'm no-ones shill. Just happy to have them, because once you've tried them(good ones, with appropriate electrical installation) you're hooked, and don't want to go back, ever. Maybe it's a cultural thing, Wild West, Cowboys, camp fire, which turned into phrases like 'Now you are cooking with gas!'. From the outside it just looks like slum, favela, ghetto-style, third-world. Uncivilized. Like much of your electrical installations, no matter if on the in- or outside :-)

    What is there to understand? Tastes differ, your tastes in particular differ from some other people. Forcing your tastes on other people is as same as forcing other people's tastes on you. What would you say if your induction was to be banned?

      Probably shrugging it off, and getting the next better thing, which would be the reason for the ban, I guess? Edit: Optionally crying out loud in public on all available channels for being victimized, and insisting on subsidies for the next better thing!

        So this >From the outside it just looks like slum, favela, ghetto-style, third-world. Uncivilized. means you'd be fine with gas stove if electric had been banned by the government? Could have fooled me.

        > and getting the next better thing... Implying an improvement, like phased array semiconductor microwaves, or something like that. Edit: Don't laugh, that actually was 'on the radar' about 10 years ago. IIRC the availability of the parts went away because the producing company has been bought by another, shifted goals, whatnot else.

        But you only get gas unless you care for a charcoal grill, we don't have Star Trek synthesizer for you. Understand OUTRAGE now?

        Get a microturbine gen-set, power that however you like. https://www.wbdg.org/resources/microturbines https://www.wbdg.org/resources/microturbines I've heard they are in common use at fracking sites, so should be easily available.

Definitely tongue in cheek, but it's almost halfway believable. For every commenter here who talks about how they prefer their gas stove for [attribute A], [attribute B] and [attribute C], a commenter jumps in like clockwork to reply with the same "Have you tried induction, bro?" comment. Eerie...

  That's because induction is magic, which the owners enjoy, and like to share their enjoyment. giggle
