- Comment on Here’s what ads on your $2,000 Samsung smart fridge will look like 2 months ago:
The widget will appear by default on the fridges as part of the software update. However, Samsung is giving users the option to turn off ads. To do this, go to the Settings page on the fridge, scroll to Advertisements, select it, and you’ll be taken to a screen where you can toggle off ads.
This will remove the widget entirely. If you think you might actually like the widget’s other features (calendar, weather, and news), you can “X” out a particular ad, and it won’t pop up again. But then you’ll get another ad.

- Comment on Tesla reintroduces 'Mad Max' Full Self-Driving mode that breaks speed limits 2 months ago:
yeah that’s definitely going to be a bit higher spec than my Wilderness lmao. The Outback will maintain lane and do centering but does not like even moderate turns, roads with questionable paint, or gusty conditions. It’s great for highway use and it definitely won’t pass other cars for me, but it will take me pretty far off the beaten path as long as I’m not trying to follow a jeep. Hell yeah, sounds like we’ve both got solid cars that fit our needs.

let alone Christmas, gas stations only close in the event of large scale riots in my experience. I’ve been forced to work overnight in a blizzard that dropped three feet of snow. I had one customer all night, he was a plow driver coming in for a few energy drinks.
