    Meanwhile, my non-smart fridge continues to run just fine. Why do we need smart fridges? That was always a bad idea.

      I'd love to text my fridge from the grocery store and ask it how much cheese is left. It's a good idea. It's just that these days, we're just not making the kind of company who can be trusted to implement it. Gotta fix that first.
