A rice cooker takes like 20-30m, who's sleeping while they make rice?....

Some rice cooker has a built in schedular. You can program it to cook at certain time.

So is the rice soaking in water overnight?

You might want to sit down for this.

There are rice cookers that can weight the rice then add water themselves. You put the rice in and set the time, it will add water automatically when it's time to cook.

No, just water.

I'm in the market for a new rice cooker, and I never knew this existed, thanks

Zojirushi "the elephant brand", is a quite popular brand that has all sorts of functionality

Yo, you should look into Induction Rice Cooker, got one last month and it was a life changing for me.

Soaking rice is often recommended! Even overnight. I’m too lazy for that but I soak mine for 30-60 min before cooking.
