  • Yeah at a reasonable price I think a fridge is a decent place to put a display surface. It’s an early point of failure but with some consumer and longevity focused thinking that’s resolvable. I don’t need it enough for the costs but if done well with a focus on the consumer’s needs and wants it could be quite nice. Mind you that condition means fat chance but still, a display telling me what I’m doing today and if I need a jacket would be really convenient in the kitchen. Give it a bus tracker and I think people would really love that.

    Honestly I hate how much of tech these days ignores asking if it’s solving a problem


  • Yeah a small screen showing time, day, weather, moon phase, sunrise/set, moonrise/set and daily/weekly schedule would be awesome. I have friends who keep a weekly meal/social schedule on their fridge and when I was staying with them mid move it was really convenient to have what’s going on so prominently displayed

    I haven’t been able to get home assistant working but I imagine it has something for home displays like that with a fair amount of customizability

    Ads and the news are two things I absolutely don’t want on my refrigerator. This is a large eye level object in the room that days begin in. They’re putting ads there because they know its a really convenient place to display useful information.







  • You aren’t American are you? Many families here teach their children to use guns. It’s considered irresponsible to keep guns in a house with children and not teach them to use them (though you should keep the guns locked up and away from them when not in use).

    Also it’s really easy to shoot a gun without training if you don’t give a fuck about not wasting ammo or who or what you hit. Especially if you’re aiming at a crowd. It’s rare for school shooters to be decent marksmen, rather they just bring a gun with decent rate of fire and a ton of ammo and shoot into a crowd
