In a post with more than 7 million views, Johnie Lee shared a screenshot of his machine's data usage, which showed around 3.6GB of daily data usage. For context, 3GB of data is the rough equivalent of streaming high-definition video for an hour on a device. A spokesperson for LG told Newsweek: "LG has connected with the customer regarding the high-traffic data concern and is actively investigating to understand the root of this unusual occurrence.

There is little reason to connect wirelessly with your appliances, and zero reason to make them visible on the greater internet, outside your home network. That is extremely dangerous.

The good news is that even "smart" appliances can be configured to go dark. I did this with our LG washer and Samsung electric range; it's just a few secret button presses in buried, unlabelled 'diagnostics' menus. Thank you, Reddit.

Note that LG touted the washer's wireless abilities ("get alerts when your cycle is done!" "start your wash remotely!!") as part of its features list, but the electric range... did not.

We didn't know the thing had wifi capabilities until it was installed and I took a deep dive into the manual. That's how we learned it could do 'marvelous' things like call my phone when the preheat was done. Yippee.

Same deal there: dug into the menus and disabled wifi completely. Again, thank you Reddit. The user manual only identified the wifi switch, but did not explain what the settings meant.

Because they don't want you to turn it off.

I think we don’t give Camilla Hect enough badass credit for making the vengeful eldritch soul of the earth do physical therapy and DBT exercises. she’s like the meme of Eddie Brock asking for two bagels when Venom says they want to eat the souls of the innocent. and then she snuggled with her at night.

i wish superpowers were real because then you'd get people making posts like "some people need to get real hobbies and stop making identical illusionary clones of themselves that your fist passes through like smoke when you go to punch them :/" and know exactly who the OP was talking about

i also don't wish superpowers were real because i would be so pissed if i replied "mad because you fell for the illusion aren't you" and some guy with teleportation powers grabbed me and teleported me to the middle of the desert for ratioing him on twitter

i remember adults telling me, as a kid, to listen to doctors and get my flu vaccine and any shots i could because they remembered Before.

then they started fighting Covid precautions.

i remember adults telling me, as a kid, that the ozone was disappearing and the earth was dying and we needed to recycle and save the planet.

now my parents think climate change is a myth.

i remember adults telling me, as a kid, that racism was a plague, that we had to love and accept everyone, that we should never judge before walking a mile in their shoes.

then they told me that protesting for my Black siblings was wrong.

i remember adults telling me, as a kid, that we needed to give to the poor. working at soup kitchens. making quilts. collecting food and money and supplies. building houses. because it was the christian and just plain right thing to do.

now they look at me, on food stamps with their grandchildren, and lament the "welfare state".

i remember adults telling me, as a kid, that it was easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven and that any rich man, especially an immoral one, should never run our country.

you can guess who they voted for.

i remember adults telling me, as a kid, so very much.

when did they forget?

Time to bring this back. Again.

Apparently this is evergreen. Dammit.

I remember adults telling me, as a kid that girls can be equal to boys in all fields including athletics. Now, they consider girls to be delicate flowers who could never hope to compete against boys.

“People were just smaller back then”

Nope. Fat people have always been here, aren’t going anywhere, and have always been beautiful and worthy of respect.

people struggling with fatigue (PWF): all activities drain energy, so I need to consciously decide what activities I'm going to use my limited energy on people who do not struggle with fatigue (P w/out F): have you tried going for a walk outside? I always feel energized after some exercise and fresh air PWF: that is an activity, which drains my energy P w/out F: what about taking a shower and fixing a snack? that'll give you a boost! PWF: that is an activity, which drains my energy P w/out F: so what do YOU do that gives you energy? PWF: no activities give me energy, that's what I'm saying P w/out F: no, but I mean like what do you do for activities that restore you? PWF: the only activity that can restore my energy to any extent is sleep, and that's not even reliable P w/out F: I think maybe you're sleeping too much. have you tried going for a walk outside? I always...
