IT LITERALLY REFUSES TO START UNLESS I GIVE IT FILESYSTEM AND LOCATION RIGHT OFF THE BAT HAHAHAHA
@Birdmachine "enjoy this new convenient way to do laundry" (that we totally didn't make using the cheapest possible 3rd party developer who wine'd-and-dine'd one of the owners and wow'd them with the power of "SMART PHONES")
I bet the company that makes that gets a cut of each transaction and are rolling in bank.
@Birdmachine I can't do public laundry machine due to extreme reactions to soaps. This is on my wishlist for when I eventually move out from here: https://www.amazon.com/Avalon-Bay-Non-Electric-Apartments-Delicates/dp/B07817ST8Q
Needs a bit of elbow grease, but it does both washing and spin-drying and isn't that bad. https://invidio.us/watch?v=OKl1zIBTveU&t=8m23s
There are also some small form factor electric washer-dryer combos you can get that are apartment friendly. The electricity costs end up adding up to the same as going to a laundromat even considering load sizes.
@Birdmachine It is basically a high temperature high capacity salad spinner with a drain. Theoretically can make your own if you've got access to a shop space, but might be hard to build the gearing.
Thy also have one at home-depot near where I live if you're not a fan of amazon.
No shitty cellphone app required.
Leaving the husk of what would have been a *perfectly fine* coin system just adds salty insult to injury 😭
