634: We Don’t Have Enough Bees

I have recently given up on three fights or battles, I guess, that I've been battling for a long time. Number one. Yes, I saw the Technology Connections videos about dishwashers and dishwasher detergent. And, I know that my dishwasher works better on powder than on the dishwasher pods. I've I've been fighting this fight. I've been using dishwasher powder and two things have made me start buying pods. Number one, we now have a we now have a dishwasher that was made after the pod era. The new dishwasher does not have the pre rinse, like, cycle hole in it. It was designed for pods from the start. Wait, what hole are you talking about? The pre rinse thing is just a place that's not covered up that you put stuff in, right? Basically, I mean, so the one at the beach, it it has like, you know, the the big hole and then there's like a little small a smaller well next to it. But the the flap covers both of them. But when you lift it up, like, there's like little slots that, like, some of the powder in the pre rinse will fall out when you close the door, like, just from gravity. You can just put some the pre rinse thing, like, you should send me a photo of everything. I'll tell you where you should put it. But the point is you want it to be someplace where when you close the door, it just falls down because that's when it's gonna be used. I mean, why don't you just port in the bottom then? Yeah. You could do that. You could do that too, but you're afraid of squirting it on the heating element or something. You know? No. I believe in that same video, I haven't watched it in a long time, but Alec just said if just dump it on the door and then close the door, which is what we do. Yeah. And the reason you don't do it in the bottom, like I said, because what if you're worried about it? A glob if it goes on the heating element and then, like, bakes on there or something. Oh, I think I think well, anyway, so reason number two that I'm just buying pods now is that it's getting harder and harder to find the powder. Like, in like, you know, I just have, like, a grocery store in the suburbs where I live here and, like, the grocery store that, you know, it's like a big chain grocery store. There's, like, one box left. Yeah. You gotta stop thinking, like, you're on Fire Island. You can even buy things on the Internet and they'll deliver them to your house. You don't have to get them in a wagon or anything. I never thought about buying dishwasher powder on the Internet. Like, it's so cheap. Buy it in bulk. Like, it just so I we don't use powder. We …
