The Victorian government will ban gas connections to new homes and residential subdivisions from January 1 next year.

Cooking on gas is the one environmentally damaging thing I don’t want to give up, I’ll admit…

    I hate the trend of appliances and new devices moving away from old fashioned buttons and dials. My drier recently glitched out and unlike my old school ones that had physical switches to adjust, but new one is just digital tap sensors. I could pause it by opening the door, but in order to get it out of whatever glitch it got stuck in I had to literally pull the plug.

    I have heard they have induction stoves that arent digital nonsense though.

        The flat part I can believe. I have those old school style coil electric stoves with the little grease bowls under the coils and light wiping is fine, a deep cleaning is a pain in the butt.

        Theres no reason induction cant just have normal buttons and knobs though(and some even do theyre out there I googled after seeing this thread)
