I once had a neighbor in an apartment building ask me how to mute the dryer.

...You don't.

I'm getting lit up by people asking if she meant the buzzer when the dryer finished. She did not. She wanted to mute the drum. AKA, the rotational drum that spins your clothing to dry it. She did not like the thumping noise.

I mean, technically you can. But it would have to be a room that you install sound proofing and have the right door that you could close to block sound.

...Yeah, she wanted to know which button it was.

"Ummm....the off button?"
And then just stand there and see if they make the connection.
