Image recognition will be able to figure out the obvious items, and hopefully the expiration dates, too, but it’s not going to be able to figure out that opaque containers are nearly empty or identify leftovers in tupperware. It’s also probably going to be unable to identify when loose produce is past its best unless it’s extremely rotten.

Some things off the top of my head are:

• you could set the temperature to a number of degrees via a numerical display, which would be much harder to implement without a microcontroller.
• maybe you could have PID control over the compressor rather than bang-bang control, so the temperature would be more stable.
• these days, a bimetallic strip costs more than a microcontroller and a chip thermometer, despite the chip being much more accurate.

All of this only requires a really dumb microcontroller, though, not one with networking. I don’t see how that could be useful until your fridge could magically track what it contains so you could ask it if you needed to buy stuff while you were shopping. I don’t think we have the technology for that yet.

Macklemoore was opening for Ed Sheeran on his tour, and took some time in his set to speak out in favour of not genociding Palestinians, including clarifying statements that he wasn’t blaming Jews in general, just specifically the state of Israel.

The owner of many of Sheeran’s tour venues phoned him and said he needed to change his opening act or he’d be barred from performing at venues owned by the same company and several other venue-owners who’d agreed to join the threat. Sheeran caved, despite the fact that some of the tour dates were too soon to plausibly book a replacement capable of filling the venues, and Sheeran being a massive ticket-seller in general, so it likely being a bluff.

P!nk retweeted a message from a pro-Israeli organisation accusing Macklemoore of extreme and vile antisemitism, then when called out for it, doubled down with direct accusations of Macklemoore being an antisemite and wanting to harm Jews.

Given that Ed Sheeran is Rupert Grint, and P!nk doesn’t look like P!nk, I suspect that P!nk is not P!nk. Off the top of my head, I think there might be a famous effeminate gay man that vaguely looked like that, and upon using reverse image search, I learned that this is James Charles, who is indeed a famous effeminate gay man, and a YouTuber.

If any two adults using a piece of playground equipment would have that happen, it’s amazing that the World Trade Center lasted until 2001.

I didn’t say people can’t find it funny, just that a layer of the joke is that the woman is fat.

The joke is partly that she weighs so much more than he is that he’s flung at ridiculous speed, so there are definite undertones of fat people are funny and women shouldn’t be fat, even if you missed them.

Nutter, nut and nutcase have been used to refer to crazy people for a lot longer than nut has been used to refer to wanking
