@futurebird@sauropods.win to charge the microwave

[neia@zoner.work]

@futurebird@sauropods.win As an alternate method of charging the microwave if the power goes out. Just hook up a couple of those external batteries and you're cooking again!

@futurebird I mean it says very clearly right on there: it's for charging the microwave

[catmisgivings@stranger.social]

@futurebird so you can charge your devices while they're in the Faraday cage

[futuristicrobert@infosec.exchange]

@futurebird

Good news! They're connected directly to the magnetron so they'll charge your device in a minute or less!!! You no longer need to put your device directly in the microwave. Please note that the popcorn settings is not recommended.

@futurebird If you pre-warm a phone before you nuke it, it'll dry out faster.

@futurebird To charge your phone.

@futurebird so you can apply security updates to the firmware?

@futurebird thanks for sharing this, adding it to my `New Folder (explicit)/normal electronics` collection

@futurebird plugging in a controller

[neia@zoner.work]

@futurebird@sauropods.win My spouse says you can plug a USB cable into both and it's an impromptu heating element! ​​

[thedansimonson@lingo.lol]

@benhamill @futurebird it says “wrong answers only”

[dunpiteog@bark.lgbt]

@futurebird to reboot it with Linux

[alienghic@timeloop.cafe]

@futurebird

so you can plug a controller in to control the claw that you can use to grab your overly hot food

[glyph@mastodon.social]

@futurebird it's where you plug in the temperature probe

@futurebird Plug in your game controller to manipulate your food while it cooks.
