This is very silly
The owners of our place agreed that the existing washer and dryer had reached the end of their useful lives and bought replacements from Costco during the Presidents' Day sales. They arrived yesterday.
They have wifi.
Please to picture me, literally cackling with laughter and clinging to the kitchen island, as P. attempted to put appliances on the home network. DS promptly started sending .gifs of the HAL9000 and Skynet.
On a rather less amusing note, the laundry room now smells considerably better after removing the old equipment (mildewed gaskets, shudder) and a thorough bleaching of the floors; I am resisting the urge to carry every bit of textiles down there and run it through a cycle. These things are large enough to launder the duvets and dry them after. There is a steam cleaning option. And, again, there is frelling wifi - I got a beep on my phone when the towels were done! Not that I'm not delighted to have new things, but this may be overkill.
