I’m a big fan of option 53 myself.

Good question, I never actually looked into it. According to her Wikipedia page:

She established the Volant Charitable Trust in 2000, and co-founded the charity Lumos in 2005. Rowling’s philanthropy centres on medical causes and supporting at-risk women and children. In 2025, Forbes estimated that Rowling’s charitable giving exceeded US$200 million. She has also donated to Britain’s Labour Party, and opposed Scottish independence and Brexit.

I bought a dryer and it has “AI Dry.” Which I’m fairly sure is not. It’s just the “sensor dry” feature that dryers have had for decades. Except I can’t control the amount of heat (no “low heat” option) so it ends up being fairly useless. This is also the default option whenever the dryer turns on, so yay.
