I was expecting this to defend the myth instead of calling rice what it is - food. That’s what 99% of these are, so that’s why I expected it.

Anyway, the problem with getting rid of the myth is because the people who believe it want an easy solution, even though it doesn’t exist and you need to open the device no matter how you spin it - you can do that easily with things like [https://www.ifixit.com/Answers/View/550013/How+long+of+a+screwdriver+do+I+need+to+open+this+calculator|battery acid] because it’s common knowledge it kills devices, but rice (and things like the Thirsty Bag) have been pushed so long it’s taken as truth. We can only educate so much because some people will always believe this myth does anything helpful. The US page was updated, but the translations don’t always follow - especially manual ones. It isn’t an issue with machine translation, so it depends on if it’s manual or machine based. Most of us are from the US, so that’s why we put that myth to bed on the US page :). Good night and good riddance.

I’ve come to terms it’ll always be a thing. We can only educate it out of the marketplace so much before resorting to ridicule to put it to bed.

The best we can do is educate these users, but even that only goes far. The US page is updated, but I have a supicion that’s because the US is the dominant userbase.

I’ve come to terms that it will always be a thing, but if someone even tries to push it as if it works I wouldn’t hesitate to mock the idea in the open for a second.
