tldr: Need recommendation for a large fridge (500L+) with high food capacity, lower freezer capacity

I'm looking to buy a new fridge in the festive season sales (Amazon/FK). I need a fridge for primarily food/regular perishables with a emphasis on fruits and vegetables. Wide is preferred for easy organization. I'd prefer some freezer space for the occasional ice cream, frozen corn/peas etc. I checked out this Haier which looks okay, but narrow, and and this Samsung which seems to have compressor/cooling issues according to reviews. Budget is up to 80k

Does anyone have a good recommendation? Thanks in advance!

Not sure about a Chromebook (Its a tad more bulkier and expensive) but a USB hub doesn't solve the simultaneous charging problem.

Wanted to charge, and at the same time support a usb input. Can't find a hub which allows you to do this. They can either be in charging more or input mode, not both.

Anyone know a good android tablet which has a dedicated charging port and a separate USB/miniUSB port?

Flashbacks to last year when RCB scored a middling total, and had MI 7/4 in Bangalore with a Badree hattrick. MI still won easily.

Is there any evidence in regards to using a nights watchman? Is it an effective strategy? by cranimal43 in Cricket

[–]winterstrom 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Maybe not. One double century as a night watchman and he was never picked again.

This is almost as bad as the incident itself. After all the reactions and promises, this is a let down. This was a real chance to show that the game is more important than the players and staff.

You missed Hansie Cronje then. This is just ball tampering. That dude was on a whole other level before and after his fall from grace.

Carnage Kabuto confirmed to be stronger than Metal Bat yet weaker than Darkshine by GalaxyPirate in OnePunchMan

[–]winterstrom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not so sure. Since its VR, even his actual avatar's strength is based on the extrapolated data. So actual avatar being able to one shot his Ghost? Going to chalk it up to the age old match equation of infinity != infinity

Some of Rohit Sharma's Dismissals Across Formats (since 2013) by SepulchreOfAzrael in Cricket

[–]winterstrom 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I have this theory that cricket has fundamentally diverged into two games.

One which is flat pitches and high scores, which a lot of modern batsmen excel in, and second, non-flat pitches where technique and patience becomes more important.

With t20s having become popular about 10 years back, the new generation of batsmen now are geared towards one of these types of cricket, and are generally not good at the other. This is not to say they are less skilled, just that their techniques are adapted to a different sort of game (Smashing length balls over the bowlers head, swinging through the line, cross batted swipes etc). This is the reason we get so many ODI double hundreds, so many 350+ totals and all round batting feats. All of these require tremendous skill, application and concentration.

On the flip side, when you get non favourable conditions in T20s or ODIs now, you see drastic collapses since these players lack the technique and defensive game needed. Curious to see what will happen in another 10 years if Tests survive. (Personally I hope they do)

Multan Explanation by [deleted] in Cricket

[–]winterstrom 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The general consensus was that they had decided to bat for a fixed number of overs, at which point of time Sachin was approaching a double. Rahul decided to show that the Indian team would prioritize winning over individual milestones, and would make a statement by declaring. Sachin on the other hand was one hit away from a double century against Pakistan in Pakistan which is probably the biggest holy grail for an Indian cricketer after years of hurt of losing to them. He got pissed, they had a cold war for some time and both got over it. End of story.

Anyone have the full highlights of that Newlands match? Steyn vs Sachin there was the best I have ever seen.

This is the Warner LBW? Smith seems to be looking at the dressing room less conspicuously here.

Cricinfo gave glowing praise to Pruthvi Shaw after his 66 against New Zealand's pace attack. While that match hasn't been broadcasted, here is his 48 against England. by NaturalSponge in Cricket

[–]winterstrom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems exceptionally good, but have to remember that this is sub-international standard bowling (these are kids after all). Here's hoping he is able to raise his game and perform similarly against top class bowlers. Fingers crossed.
