@sinituulia@eldritch.cafe Weird, I'm finding that 60C, 40C, and either 20C or 30C (and then cold) are supposedly the standard temperature options here, but in most other countries there's also a 90C option. (Definitely didn't look into whether there's a way to enable the 90C option, or why we randomly don't have it...)

@dartigen@aus.social 60C is the lowest temperature that kills dust mites in bedding, which are an allergen and irritant to a lot of people while not strictly dangerous, so it's bizarre to me that not all machines go that high. I was shocked to learn the other day that there are gas powered dryers? You know, those things that just spontaneously catch fire sometimes if there's too much lint in them? Seems silly, but what do I know
