Had the exact same experience the other day. Fuck these machines, fuck printers, fuck microwave ovens, fuck software updates and fuck time estimates in general.

Shouldn't need to be an estimate. The washer and drier are on timers. Use that as the time indicator.

Most dryers these days should be using a moisture sensor, not a timer.

Most dryers give an estimate of time but use a sensor to judge if the clothes are indeed dry.
