Technology connections is great. I've never been more excited to listen to a man talk about dishwashers for 20 minutes.

- Xiol32 2y agoStill can't find powder where I am. It's all tabs. I need that prewash, dammit!
- gattilorenz 2y agoI just cut off a slice of tab (using one of the dirty knives) and throw it in the bottom of the dishwasher before starting it.
- mulmen 2y agoYou’re still paying the premium for tabs.
- petepete 2y agoIn the UK the only supermarket I can find that sells powder (after trying lots) is Sainsbury's. https://www.sainsburys.co.uk/gol-ui/product/sainsburys-concentrated-dishwasher-powder-1kg https://www.sainsburys.co.uk/gol-ui/product/sainsburys-conce... I asked in Tesco and the young lad who worked there (probably 18-19) had never heard of it. I still dispense it from a Finish powder bottle I've had for more than a decade.
- atonse 2y agoThis is exactly why I describe HN as “my home on the internet” These are my fellow people that will happily watch a 20 or 40 min video about how dishwashers work, or his more recent video about replicating old style Christmas lights.
- ToucanLoucan 2y agoI tried box detergent because of his dishwasher video, and that's probably saved me hundreds of dollars at this point, with the added benefit of my dishes actually get cleaner. I also dumped a crappy beverage cooler in my office for a cheap as hell box mini-fridge, which actually maintains temperature enough that I can store cream for coffee and ice down here, and it uses less energy then the unit before.
