    A share a world with these people who have these specific thoughts. I’m not angry about it or anything, just a realization.

    First cycle of the dishwasher is just a hot water rinse to get a head start on removing debris that gets drained away. Then it refills and deploys detergent and spends most of the rest of the time in this cycle before rinsing and drying. So, I mean, I don’t recommend it, but it will be drained a few minutes into the cycle and the dishwasher will actually clean with detergents after with no pee left. So, it really won’t hurt anything besides your relationship with your family/roommates.

          I’m reminded to check out what else he’s put out recently. I really enjoyed his EV take last year.

          Edit: damn, nothing since the hybrid video. :(

          Yeah you’re right my piss doesn’t require any extra cleaning. Brownies though? Put every house hold cleaner into the pre-wash

            You say that sarcastically but it is true piss really would not require any specialized cleaner to remove. But when it comes to baked on cheese eggs things like that the protein in them makes them very difficult to remove with just water and it needs emulsifiers and surfactants to help break it down and remove it

    This is why I poop in the washing machine. Bigger opening so I can’t miss. And, as we all know, it will get… Washed.

      This is just blatantly untrue. I know for a fact its possible to miss, especially if you’ve got some food poisoning and your balance isnt the best. You’ve clearly never seen a full sized dish washer. I’ve seen industrial laundry machines with smaller openings.

      Now im curious about the design of both your machines, all the regular styles i know of are definitely easier to unload in the dishwasher. Do you have a top loading washing machine? Crawling up on it doesnt seem that much easier

        See, this is where the nuances enter. My dishwasher is my hands, so I much prefer my top loader washing machine and keep on super load wash to get the corn kernals clean enough to pluck before the dryer.

        I’d say most people of average height can easily get up on a washing machine just with their ass. And if it’s top load, then you’ve certainly got a nice big hole to shit in. Probably bigger than most toilets, though both come in different sizes. That central agitator might get in the way though, so you’ll probably have to shit to the side of it, or in front or behind. Usually I also have to piss while I shit, and that would get in the way there too. Especially considering splash back. Now ironically you are literarally directly next to running hot and cold water, but you can’t use it to wash your hands, which one should do after shitting. So you might have to go to the bathroom sink anyway. So if you were trying to save yourself a trip to the bathroom you didn’t save any time there. Wiping is probably okay if you have a dirty laundry basket or pile close by. You’ll have to be sure to wipe with appropriate colors and loading groups. Like you wouldn’t want to do one wipe with a towel and another wipe with a delicate item. Again your old friend toilet paper back in the bathroom is saving you time, as you don’t have to sort anything before you wipe. The more I think about this, it’s almost as if having a specific appliance or device specifically designed for accommodating the act of defecating is probably preferable as opposed to repurposing other devices not specifically designed for that purpose. In conclusion, I have my doubts about the efficacy of these life hacks.

    I think it’s doing a lot more cleaning than it needs to, considering industrial ones in restaurants take less than a minute

      I think a lot of the time involved is to keep the process quiet, an industrial dishwasher is fast but loud as fuck. I wouldn’t mind being given that choice with a home dishwasher though.

        Also way hotter than a residential one. I actually cooked salmon in one when I worked on a cruise ship. Surprisingly effective.

          Price is also a major factor. Restaurants won’t balk at paying thousands for an industrial grade dishwasher if it can replace or greatly reduce the demand for a human dishwasher. Even at low restaurant wages, it doesn’t take long for a $6000 dishwasher to pay for itself. On the other hand, if the only dishwashers available cost that much, if there were no dishwashers at a consumer price point? Most people would just go without one in their home.

      Ime dishes get precleaned more before they go into the industrial dishwasher.

      You scrape in the trash, scrub in the sink, and rinse/sanitize in the dishwasher. At least that’s how my kitchen was, like a quarter-century ago.

        I worked as a dishwasher maybe 15 years ago? Nothing needed to be scrubbed. Scrape and put into tray. Once tray was filled slide into dishwasher and pull down handle. Wait about 60 seconds and pull up handle. Slide rack out. Receive 4th degree burns without using a towel to grab dishes.

    Hmm, dishwashers are designed to use as little water as possible. The drain doesn’t actually drain right away but might be circulated back into the system. No idea what it does with any fluids before it’s turned on but I wouldn’t risk it.

      In mine, any fluids added before starting just sit in the tub at the bottom. The first thing it does after starting is run the pump though, so piss away I guess…

          “The dose makes the poison”, it’s not uncommon for water to be a little contaminated, but dishwashers are also supposed to get hot enough to sterilize the water being used to wash the dishes. So you might get a bit of piss in your dishwater, it’ll be sterile, and most of it will get carried away with the water being used to wash off the other junk before sterilizing and rinsing.

    This is the logic behind Japanese toilets having a tiny hand sink over the commode so you wash your hands with the water that’s being used to refill the basin.

    Why not use it that way? You’re just going to pee in it later.
