Carl Malamud on Nostr: I bought a new toaster and the instructions said several times that I should unplug ...
I bought a new toaster and the instructions said several times that I should unplug the device after every use. Or, as they say, I should “isolate the unit.” I’ve been making toast for over 60 years and I have never once isolated a toaster after use. Is this procedure really necessary?
