I actually unplug the microwave if I don’t stop it before it beeps. Every beep feels like an audible knife penetrating my brain. And for the dryer I just firmly tell it like an annoyed parent to stop being disrespectful and to show some respect to its elders. If I’m feeling particularly annoyed, I’ll give it a lecture about how dryers should be seen and not heard
My microwave beeps at me every minute when it’s finished to let me know to open it and yell “Are you happy now?”.

How else do you know to rescue the potato inside?
The potato can wait. I’m busy.
Those beeps are useful for things that you’re supposed to microwave and then ‘rest’ for x minutes
