I hate it. Needs a fatigue mat.

[–] expr@programming.dev 10 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Also some kind of ventilation.

And the painting would get fucked up pretty quickly in general.

[–] Cort@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

One good grease fire and it'll catch the painting on fire too.

That painting is gonna be covered in tomato sauce splatter and oil

[–] sunoc@sh.itjust.works 116 points 1 week ago

Now THAT’s oil painting !

[–] hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 70 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Oh sure, hang an oil painting right above a woodstove. What could go wrong?

[–] Fifrok@discuss.tchncs.de 30 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Sadly that's not a woodstove, that would be too good.

That's probably an Aga style stove. Those are mostly made with cast-iron and use radiant heat to cook. Each oven 'compartent' has a diffrent function (eg. top left is warming, bottom left is for roasting and a big one for baking). They work kinda like a masonry heater. And are meant to be always on.

[–] hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 6 days ago

Sounds like a great way to ruin paintings.

[–] Saleh@feddit.org 16 points 1 week ago

Arent they supposed to also double as heating the house, or at least the main room?

Maybe they just hate the painting and want to cover it in oil, smoke, food, and fire

[–] kryptonianCodeMonkey@lemmy.world 44 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

You mean this AI generated slop? No, can't say I care for it. Even if it were real, no handles on the smaller oven doors, fire hazard oil painting (that would be FILTHY the first time you boiled a sauce/soup) over a gas stove, no vent hood or overhead light... no thank you.

[–] douglasg14b@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

Lol ovens like this existed.

My parents literally have one of them right now in their kitchen.

They are less than ideal for sure.

[–] kryptonianCodeMonkey@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

I know they exist in that style. This one is AI though. You can see some tell tale signs if you zoom in. Continuity errors with the boards on either side of the painting, utensils and cutting boards with weird curves and abstract shapes, the missing handles, knobs with weird protrusions, a window with a taller frame on the bottom so it cant open more than 6 inches, sails on the painted ship that tmake no sense, etc.

[–] Hackworth@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 days ago

I can tell from some of the pixels and from seeing quite a few AIs in my time.

[–] droans@midwest.social 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

This is definitely AI but similar ovens used to be built and, I'm sure, still are.

However, there are still plenty of issues.

Open flame plus a flammable painting. And the painting is right over the oven where it will get covered in grease. And that's a gas range with no hood.

There's a reason ovens usually open from the top these days. It's safer and allows you to peak without opening the entire oven or leaning at an odd angle. Locking handles are also no longer used because little kids can climb in and accidentally get stuck.

The multiple drawers sounds like a good idea but it just means that you can't cook large dishes. Usually you'd only see styles like this in restaurant kitchens because they will know how large of an oven they need and can benefit from having multiple sizes for different dishes.

[–] silasmariner@programming.dev 2 points 6 days ago

Oh yeah this is one of the biggest things that AI fucks up -- reality. Nobody would put a painting above a stove IRL. That's the most obvious flag to me. It's like a spot-the-difference

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 40 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I didn't mind it until I saw the painting and now I'm just scared of it!

[–] TomMasz@piefed.social 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Same here. But I had to read the comments to figure that out, I was too fixated on the stove.

[–] garbagebagel@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

I actually really love the stove but yeah lol that person definitely does not cook in their kitchen

"Do we like this?"

That's the biggest cant-think-for-myself red flag I've ever heard.

[–] douglasg14b@lemmy.world 18 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I mean, asking for others opinions is a pretty normal and social behavioral thing to do... No?

Things I like I find others tend not to, so if I'm making something to appeal to others and not myself, I ask what they like.

Ofc this example of a picture hung over a stove is.... Asinine, but my point still stands in response to your statement.

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 4 points 6 days ago

Yes, asking for people's thoughts on things is normal. It is not asking for others to think for you. They're too caught up on the wording.

[–] drolex@sopuli.xyz 7 points 6 days ago (1 children)

You're being gollumophobic 🚩

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

blatant venomophobia

[–] troed@fedia.io 31 points 1 week ago

Surely everyone understands a real painting can't take the heat.

It's obviously an OLED TV.

[–] Zier@fedia.io 22 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Can't wait for the addition of spaghetti sauce splatters. And the house fire.

[–] Fermion@feddit.nl 7 points 1 week ago

They'll have a unique Pollock inspired piece in no time.

[–] fubarx@lemmy.world 20 points 1 week ago

Clearly, the painting has special meaning to the owner and significance to the location. It's likely made of heat-resistant material, and...

Oh, who are we kidding. It's the same width as the stove and is matchy-match blue.

[–] Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 week ago

Definitely nobody has ever used a frying pan on this stove.

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 1 week ago (15 children)

An overly tidy house is often a sign of imbalance, ahem. 😜

What an odd sur name. I wanna change mine to an object too. Something like Jon housekey, Jim doorknob, Tommy tailgate, Thomas teriyaki beef jerky??

[–] Vrijgezelopkamers@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I guess AI doesn’t concern itself with practicality. What’s up with the weird shaped spoons and spoonhandles?

[–] Deceptichum@quokk.au 16 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (4 children)

Do you not cook?

Spatula come in a huge variety of shapes for different purposes.

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 11 points 1 week ago

I should get some spoons with speed holes

[–] Klear@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

These are super useful if you hate soup.

[–] mathemachristian@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They're amazing for cooking soup! How do you stir??

[–] llii@discuss.tchncs.de 11 points 1 week ago (2 children)

With this, why do you ask?

[–] Birch@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 week ago

Yes officer, this comment right here

Forget them hanging a picture above their stove. What’s worse is that they didn’t even centre it.

[–] Atelopus-zeteki@fedia.io 7 points 1 week ago

Yar, nor do they sail the seven seas!
