The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

I fixed our last dryer with a 12 dollar belt. It took about an hour and most of that was cleaning lint out of it. Lasted a couple more years.

Yep, dryers are easy. Washers are more complicated, with the water and all. Still, if the problem is that it's just dead, then it's probably a circuit board issue.

Heat pump driers are the latest fash, doubt that is true for these.
