We have a horrible new Panasonic microwave oven. The BEEP is
ear-splitting. The procedure to silence it is complex, and only works if
the door is open.

 
Does it keep forgetting it was silenced, so you have to do this procedure
multiple times?

I break the piezo buzzer, if I can get at it.
 
We should arrest whoever invented piezo buzzers. Put him in a prison
cell with 100 piezos.

My microwave oven has a little metal gong,  When the timer has run back
to zero, it releases a tiny hammer and the gong goes "ping!"  Perhaps
one day they will re-invent this idea and hail it as a great improvment.
