TBH that's the first time I see that for a non commercial grade fridge. I bet they artificially jack up the price for that though, even though it would be very easy to do. Could technically mod an existing fridge if you really wanted to. Bypass it's thermostat and put in your own arduino based one.

well it IS a viking fridge, so for sure it's going to cost you a pretty penny.

evidently Samsung has it too. Conclusion: buy cheap things get cheap knobs

I hope that can be changed to centigrade. That is blasphemy! My AC unit is F only, I had to print out a little chart and stick it to it so I know what temp it's actually set at without having to look it up each time. Not that it matters since I set it to the lowest setting it goes to anyway.

Dealing with the heat and humidity.(Unusual for Oregon).

89 degrees F with a 62 degree F dew point.(The humidity is 40 %).

Not fun at all.I've been hiding in my air-conditioned apartment all afternoon.

Welcome to the East coast, it gets worse the more south you go.

I spent $53 on dinner and I'm not sure if my per-diem is calculated on a per meal or per day basis. I sure as fuck hope it's per day!

lol... I still don't really understand Fahrenheit (nor can I spell it because I keep missing the first "h"). So, 32 is freezing, 70 is kind of warm, 90-100 is Iraq.

Got a French Dip for lunch. There was no au jus and I didn't feel like going back down to the cafeteria to get any. The sandwich was dry without it.

You should learn the difference between fridge and freezer.

"Everything is frozen" - emphasis on "everything," regardless of which part it was in.




Actually why don't fridges have actual temperature control instead of these random numbers that mean nothing?
Cost saving, no doubt.
I checked the inside of a fridge once. All the "temperature control" dial did was move a small louver that opened or closed a vent between the freezer and the refrigerator sections.
A lot of consumer devices are designed with "Fuck it, that'll do" as the standard.




some do. otherwise, get a $5 thermometer for the fridge, and if you really can't figure out what 1-5 would be, get another thermometer for your freezer

http://www.amazon.com/s?ie=UTF8&page...%20thermometer

Top of the list. I know you're in Canada, but there's gotta be a comparable product there too.
Taylor Digital Refrigerator Freezer Thermometer
Range -4°F to 140°F and -20°C to 60°C
It's nice of them to make a versatile product, but I think that once it exceeds 100F, there's probably something wrong with the fridge.

So what is the borderline for "cheap" then? $100/ft³, or what?

I guess I'd just expect a refrigerator with a freezer section to be capable of providing appropriate temperatures in each of the two sections. Otherwise it's just false advertising. Not that that is a deterrent anymore.

On my way home from an appointment on my day off, my oil change light came on. I had to go get the oil changed which got into the way of my plans of going straight home.

Oh the humanity!

My fries were too crispy and I didn't put enough hot sauce on it so I had to eat a lot of them plain...
