  • These fridges didn't have ads when people first bought them.
  • If you're renting, usually the landlord picks the appliances.

If you’re renting, usually the landlord picks the appliances.

I guarantee someone is working real hard on making ad supported appliances targeted specifically for rental properties a reality.

I’m reading Radicalized by Cory Doctorow and this starts to feel too real since it’s the same plot of the book

Great story! I loved it.

If you're renting your landlord probably got your fridge out of an alley, they wouldn't spend 2k on one.

They should be worried about you smashing the screen anyways the second an ad plays

The landlord thing really depends on the region I guess. I just moved to another state and most of these listing don’t have appliances. My sister said that’s just how it is here.

Which I guess is fine if you know about it ahead of time but I’m like “damn i guess I’ll save up for a fridge now”
