I'm a little late, as I only heard about this after 11/10 on the Wikipedia article for this family of consoles. Cited at https://www.theverge.com/2020/10/28/21538654/microsoft-xbox-series-x-fridge-competition

The mere production of multiple, real functioning refrigerators based on the meme that the Xbox Series X looks like a refrigerator stunned me for real. The actual refrigerators are not a joke, really. Microsoft values them at $499, the same cost of a real Xbox Series X, but they cannot be bought, unless someone who got one is selling one. One of them has already been given away to Snoop Dogg, and another one was given away in a contest a few weeks ago. Though none of us are able to acquire one anytime soon, this product is nonetheless interesting.

At least going off of a youtube video where someone repaired an xbox fridge(tronicsfix) it seems like its just a huge case of shit quality parts.

The fridge's power board had a short

    Thanks mate.
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I used to drink alcohol fairly often. Never to the point of it being a problem, but like 2-3 beers with dinner each night, or a few cocktails or glasses of Scotch or something. Started smoking/vaping weed a lot a few years back which killed 90% of my interest in booze. Now I stopped smoking/vaping weed as much and just deal with life the boring way most of the time
