Learned a while ago from @Caramelia79  at Twitter: “AEG Methode.”

Posted by jpluimers on 2023/08/28

Too bad that [Wayback/Archive] Cara (@Caramelia79) / Twitter deleted their tweet before it got archived, so this lone tweet does not really make sense now:

[Archive] Jeroen Wiert Pluimers on Twitter: “@Caramelia79 @unimanatee Heute neu gelernt: AEG Methode.” / Twitter

The joke however was this:

AEG Methode:

  1. Ausschalten
  2. Einschalten
  3. Geht

It is also known as “AEG-Prinzip” and refers back to the AEG brand that was (still is?) big in Germany for household appliances and industrial products.

The not so cool thing is that by now it seams to mean:

  1. Ausschalten
  2. Einschalten
  3. Geht nicht

as about a year ago some AEG microwave appliance models show errors F606 and F254 after a firmware update: they now think they are steam ovens but cannot find the correct steam hardware:
