The idea of a fridge requiring internet access and updates is mind-boggling to me.

Some things are best kept away from the IoT.

It does solve a real problem - as there is a camera inside so you can remotely observe what you have/don't have in the fridge. That's genius IMO.

And then whoever manages to gain access to that camera gets some lovely footage of you with your head in the fridge scratching your ass as you're looking for something to snack on at 1AM.

Its normally always cheese, whether is a block, grated or slices. Nothing beats 2AM cheese time.

Come down in the morning expecting a lovely bowl of cereal with some fresh milk, to find a firmware update failed overnight and the fridge broke.

Or wait until lower temperatures are DLC

Bought a combi ladder.

As you might be able to make out we have very high ceilings, so I bought a fancy one that folds out to a regular ladder.

Solving a problem that doesn't exist you mean :cry:

Damn, was your house built for the BFG?

I have to say the camera isn't well placed to be honest so really doesn't lend much value.

For me the extra "premium" was worth it in nicer handles etc and lower noise than competitors. I think then the extra for the tv over another Samsung model was <£100.

It was £1150 after cashback.

A clock. It isn't a Nixie clock, the digits are on individual IPS panels. The digits are a lot easier to read in the flesh than the photo suggests.

It came from AliExpress and the seller I got it from doesn't seem to be around any longer. This is the same item though but look around on there as there's multiple sellers selling the same stuff and the prices can vary quite a lot.

Mine cost about £80 delivered.

It's a bungalow so not a super tall house with with several crazy high levels (although we plan to make it this way) but 2.8m ceilings are quite tall. Means for the first time in my life I can't change a light bulb without standing on tippy toes, hence the ladder.

I have a few light fixtures to replace and then when unfolded it will come in handy to clean gutters, get in the loft space, etc.

I just noticed that the right hand glass tube isn't sitting right, that's my fault and not a problem with it.

You need to fix it and retake the pic because I can't sit right until this happens!

I'll enjoy this new found power over you for a while and post a better picture later.

I'm not built for the cold conditions so I got a jacket to make sure I get off my arse and cycle when it's cold

New hangboard, without the need of drilling anything at all

Dual shock 3 mount of PSP Go. Works great and only £6 inc delivery

V F · 11 Nov 2021 at 20:00

Is that why they made it for a dual shock, since the buttons are so small on the device itself? :rolleyes:

Junglist · 11 Nov 2021 at 20:03

I loved my Go. Granted I only ended up playing Final fantasy 7 and the Gran Turismo that came free with it on the device but it was a great console for how easy it was to fit in the pocket.

Much better than the unwieldy PSP (which I also loved)
