Samsung refrigerators in the US is putting ads on the fridges for the first time, per the Verge. Samsung is calling it a pilot program for now, that they say is meant to “strengthen the value” of owning a Samsung smart fridge.

Because apparently it needed to be said: Space Shuttle Discovery should stay put and in one piece, so tens-to-hundreds of millions of dollars can instead go toward solving real-world problems for Americans:
