why does a fridge need a computer and a screen?
The burning question on the hearts and minds of everyone who isn't a complete dolt since these things came out
I keep racking my brain on this one. Unless it's doing advanced things like automatically tracking fridge inventory and helping build shopping lists, there's literally no point. Analog controls work fine, even for fancier fridges with integrated ice makers.
Displaying recipes is about all I can come up with
And even that one is not a good use case really because of the location.
The counter makes a lot more sense for a recipe screen, and turns out a tablet is good at that.
Fridge screen with recipes would be great for my family. If it was smart enough to track the contents of the fridge and create meal plans, that would be a helpful reason to add smarts.
Maybe to plan something to eat, but the practice of actually using a recipe its in a bad spot.
Think about it you bring everything together to cut and cook, it makes so much more sense to not have it on a door. Instead in front of you, like a cookbook. Better still if it's movable.
Fortunately self hosting recipies is easy and there is great software for doing it. Use any device you want for that purpose.
