i will then give another passive aggresive beep every few minutes until you acknowledge me.

And yet the stove top/oven will stay on forever without alerting you until you realize something is on fire.
Ceiling beep: this is my cue!
Or in the case of my dumb microwave: BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEEP.
WHY SO MANY
I was at a hotel once and went to the bathroom while heating up some food. The microwave finished and beeped like 10 times then beeped every 15 seconds until I opened the door. I don't really understand what problem that's meant to fix, it's not like the microwave keeps microwaving after it beeps and shuts off, nothing's going to catch on fire
My drier at home does this too, although every 10 minutes as opposed to seconds, and I don't understand that either. Washing machine I could understand since if you forget about it for too long it might go mildew-y, but once my drier is done, it's done, and won't turn back on until Its turned back on. A beep every 10 mins might be nice as an optional toggle or something for forgetful people, but it's just plain annoying
If you time it just right and open the door after the numbers disappear but before the beepy-beeps, you might just experience the greatest joy known to man, on par with witnessing the logo hit the corner of screen.
such delicious lies
No mating!
Rotates in a slow circle
Mine does not have a rotating plate, just a glass bottom. I assume the magnetron rotates, either that or it heats unevenly.
the latter is most likely
I can hear this meme in 50Hz… 😂
I just realized that the mains hum would be different in 60Hz compared to 50Hz.. I wonder if it's noticeable
It's very noticable.
