reddig33@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•I need to buy a fridge+freezer soon, what should I look out for?English3·1 天前Side-by-sides require you to pretty much squat to get to the items on the lowest shelves. Consider taking a look at units that have a freezer drawer instead. Go to the store, and try accessing the bottom items in both kinds see which one is easier for you. This is especially important if you or someone in your family has a bad back.
Check to see how the shelves adjust. Compare to what you currently have in your home. Some refrigerators allow you to split shelves. Other others have a single shelf that goes the entire width of the refrigerator. For example, where would you put the leftover pizza box? Or the milk carton? Can the doors hold the items that are currently in your fridge doors?
When shopping, be sure to look at the warranty, especially on the compressor. Some of the warranties are really lousy. Repairing the cooling system (compressor and coolant refill) can cost just out of warranty as buying a new refrigerator. LG for example has a 10 year warranty on some of their compressors, but not all of their models. Be sure to check the warranty on the specific model you are buying.
Some refrigerators have icemakers in the door, some of them in the freezer. In my experience it doesn’t matter which you choose. having a bunch of ice located in the freezer helps keep it cool. What is more important is if you want a filtered water dispenser. If this is the case, I recommend getting one on the door exterior so you don’t have to let all the chilled air out while you fill a glass or pitcher. The exception is that some Samsung models include a pitcher that’s kept automatically filled in the refrigerator door. However, this pitcher is plastic, so that may be a concern depending on your views on microplastics.
If you are worried about where your appliances manufactured, you’re going to need to look at the label inside the fridge. It will sayon the label. You can’t really just rely on a brand, since brands have factories in multiple countries. You should also be aware that there aren’t a lot of brands really left. Most of the brands have been allowed to merge into a handful companies. You can look up the brand on Wikipedia to see who the actual manufacturer is.
I encourage you to take actual measurements of the appliance at a store. Relying on the measurements on a website can be very confusing. Some depth measurements include the depth of the doors, some do not some specified depths with handles, some do not you need to measure the space where your fridge will fit this includes height, width, and depth.

reddig33@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•If I delete iBooks on iPhone, does that delete audiobooks or do they stick around even when doing so?English11·5 天前Are you asking if you delete the Apple Books app from your iPhone if it will delete audiobooks purchased from Apple from your phone, I’m pretty sure the answer is yes. I don’t think these purchases show up in any other app.
If you delete them, you should be able to redownload them from the Books app/store without repurchasing. However, I would still make a backup of your purchases on a computer because record companies and other publishers have a nasty habit of pulling items out of circulation because of licensing disputes and whatnot. Better to have a local backup just in case.

I do see that Ubuntu touch is an option though.
It’s shameful that most phones run one of two operating systems. There’s not enough competition. I’m still pissed about WebOS and Windows Phone being abandoned. I am hopeful though that web-based apps might make it possible for another OS to enter the market successfully at some point.
The nice thing about the Hackintosh was the upgradability/repairability. Wishing Apple would bring some of that back.
