Nice sentiment, but hard to deliver. You have a dishwasher and a fridge, right? They've been running firmware you don't get to inspect for a couple of decades already. Luckily they don't have network access.
- bigbubba 6y agoHow many years is 'decades'? About 4 or 5 years ago I took apart a freezer that was about 10 years old. The compressor seemed to be switched by a thermostat; I found nothing that would have firmware.
- rovr138 6y agoThat freezer is 1.5 decades.
- bigbubba 6y agoYes, and wouldn't really surprise me if freezers with the same design can still be found in stores today.
- fingerlocks 6y agoThey can, but they will lack features like vacation mode, cleaning mode, fault sensors, and door ajar audio notification.
