Can't sign in Google Calendar on my Samsung refrigerator

I propose a new category for HN --> "HN Onion: ". this one is the honorary founder and proof that art can only imitate life.

Man the future is weird. Fridges needing firmware updates, books and cigarettes that can run out of battery...

This is hilarious and dystopian at the same time.

Actual quote: "Holly, Did you try rebooting the fridge?"

I foresee this becoming a big problem in the future with Google providing no explicit retirement dates for API's upfront (which is very understandable) and manufacturers of not-so-easily-updated devices not caring.

I'll just leave this here: https://twitter.com/internetofshit?lang=en

In what kind of parallel future are you? Thought we all realized an internet-enabled fridge was just an artifact of our internet-philia and past lack of imagination.

Looks like it's almost 2016 and we still can't reliably share a calendar over a computer network.
