Comment on Refrigerator ads are finally here!
Cocodapuf@lemmy.world 2 days agoYou not only paid for the refrigerator, but also the electricity and the internet access.
That’s a good point actually. You can eliminate these ads by taking it off the Wi-Fi.

Why you’d connect it to the internet in the first place is a mystery to me

I have my washer and dryer connected to the internet. I set up an automation that flashes the lights upstairs when a load is done, and turns on the laundry room lights. I suspect there are some fun automation opportunities with this fridge, too. But my washer and dryer don’t have giant touch screens or ads. I’d never buy this fridge.

You don’t have to have a smart washer and dryer to do this. If you get a smart outlet that monitors power usage, you can have it notify you when the usage dips. That’s how I do it.

Are there smart outlets that can handle 240v?

I mean, yeah. I’m with you 100%
