Comment Re: Deserve what you get (Score 1) 261

I got a heavily discounted floor model a few years back. As a fridge it's worked reliably. The ability to remotely check the contents of the fridge was nice for a little while but we mostly stopped using because of constant software and terms of service updates. AI food recognition is worthless. The "render process has crashed" browser is crap. It's a proprietary OS so no good DIY avenues there. Still, having recipes on the screen is handy. We played with other features but not for long. I went to Pixels because Samsung's phone UI is cluttered and not user-centric. The fridge is so much worse - and less responsive.

Comment Re:Here's where .Net is a Big Win for MS (Score 1) 307

While the .Net runtimes haven't been ported as much as they could be, .Net is inherently multi-platform. I've had one complex .Net 2 application that worked on CE, Windows x86/64, and Mono. No rebuild was required, as .Net is compiled at runtime, much like Java. The only time code changes are necessary for different architectures is when libraries or features are different between implementations of the framework.
