    Also this sounds like a great way to make me see if I can make my dryer run FOSS controllers. Like I’d fuck with that shit as long as my wife lets me and publish the results for free. Why the fuck wouldn’t I? It’s heat, time, and rotational velocity. Sure it might have some weird shit, but honestly this sounds kinda fun, especially if I can get some cracked versions of what they do to deal with a handful of conditions already.
