Has HP printers always been this bad? (sh.itjust.works)

So my mother recently bought an ET-2800, By HP we had an HP printer before and we got a new one because the old one would not work with my sister’s Windows 11 Laptop. So I had to set it up for my mother, the manual said you can use it without the app. But there was no way to physically do that. Anyway, I downloaded the app on...

Mongostein,

HP pretty much pioneered enshittification

Hey non-white people: do you actually not enjoy pumpkin spice? I feel like this whole thing is overblown.

Edit: I love that this conversation is still going, no answers have been found, but also no insults have been thrown.

Mongostein,

Huh. I agree about the debate being stupid, but judging by the responses to my (obviously flawed) study here on Lemmy it seems like there may be something to this stereotype.

I love pumpkin pie, but anything else pumpkin spice I’m pretty meh about. It’s probably the lack of actual pumpkin.

Mongostein,

That’s just the way she goes I guess. 🤷🏻‍♂️

More pie for me :p

Mongostein,

Pumpkin pie. The whole pumpkin spice thing comes from the pie.

Mongostein,

I loved it! I just happened to get sick from school the week my mom rented it for me. 🫢

I wonder why they never continued to use any of the characters like Mallow.

Mongostein,

I fucking love Motörhead and it irks me to no end that with 17 awesome albums this is the only song that gets any mainstream play.

So here’s another great Motörhead tune for ya:

This dog is dumb

Edit: Time has passed and this dog is no longer dumb.

Mongostein,

Kinda fucked up that the military is tied to private interests in any way.

Mongostein,

Looks like a nice view. Get her some furniture!

Mongostein,

Especially when the phone doesn’t seem to have a finger print scanner

Mongostein, (edited )

Probably a phishing site.

It goes, “Oh you don’t have a fingerprint scanner? Enter your Facebook password.” and suckers fall for it.

Mongostein,

We see corporations fuck up this world more and more every day and yet the powers that be just let it happen. I dunno man. This capitalist democracy thing just ain’t working. Maybe it’s time to try something else.

Mongostein,

I’ve got a shit ton of vegetables from my garden. I’m thankful for that and I’m going to share them with my friends.

Mongostein,

Albertan reporting in. I like it too!

Mongostein,

Ok I’m a little behind on this story. Why did Trudeau say India was involved?

And what the fuck, India? Grow up.

Mongostein,

Enh, maybe it’s because I’m used to the English version, but I couldn’t imagine watching a whole episode like this.

The real problem with dubbing is that they usually have to redo all the sound effects without the director involved, including any natural sounds that would have been caught with the original dialogue. Audio is half of video, so it can change the director’s intent pretty drastically.

It sounds weird and I always go with subtitles for those reason.

Mongostein,

Yeah, these days they wouldn’t need to if they’re provided with the .proj or .xml or whatever they’re using for editing. King of the Hill is pretty old though and the scene change music in the video above sounds off to me so I think they did redo it all.

Mongostein,

I remember 5-10% being standard when I was a kid, although I wasn’t the one paying.

Mongostein,

No, a union is made up of workers and they vote on whether or not to strike.

This bill would be like one good thing they do for workers, but of course they won’t because it would harm their “donors” who already have more than enough.

Mongostein,

No, the point of a strike is to put the hurt that the employees are already feeling on the employers

Mongostein,

A collection plate would actually help people if you were allowed to take money out of it when you’re in need.

Mongostein,

I miss pre-google YouTube

Mongostein,

I just got up from my nap, whippersnapper

Mongostein,

I miss thinking to myself, “Google? That’s a silly name. I’ll stick to Alta Vista.”

Mongostein,

Well, an instance could decide they wanted to try to make money, but I think everyone would just bail on them. People are more than happy to help out servers with donations, no need to make it a business venture.

Mongostein,

Not really what I was talking about, but ok.

Mongostein, (edited )

How do I nuke my reddit account again? I wasn’t going to in case they decided to smarten up, but fuck ‘em

Mongostein,

So since what’s available now isn’t actually AI, what do we call it when we do get real AI? Will it be like what happened with HD? With True AI™ followed by Ultra AI™, AI4K™, and so on until we just call them master?

Mongostein,

I’m pretty anti-capitalist. Not 100%, but man shit is fucked right now and it’s gotta be reigned in.

A mixed economic system where the necessities of life are not run for profit (maybe even free?) combined with profit-driven progress for the luxuries would be best. With strong unions for all workers of course.

Oh, and fix the democracy too. No more FPTP bullshit.

Mongostein,

Ok, but what kind of tracking and whatnot are they doing?

Mongostein,

Fuuuuuuuuck our province is full of morons. Just send a meteor to my house please.

Mongostein,

That guy’s really good in that role. He’s the kind of character you love to hate.

Mongostein,

Didn’t Ukraine already go “oops our bad” and Poland say “no problem”?

Mongostein,

Welcome to Costco. I love you.

Mongostein,

That’s a lot of mental gymnastics to make GOTG3 political.

It’s a movie about friendship, family, and a megalomaniac.

Mongostein,

God and Heaven exist in the Marvel universe in the same way that Thor and Zeus exist. You’re reading way too much in to it.

Mongostein,

By that logic the Thor movies are pushing a Nordic mythological agenda. Should I be concerned?

Mongostein,

In the Thor movies they explain that Hel and Valhalla are real as well. I don’t see it as any different.

Mongostein,

I disagree, but I’m enjoying reading how you’re waaaaayyyyy overthinking it.

Mongostein,

People are like, “whaaaaaat?” because you’re overthinking it.

Mongostein,

Ok, so why are they “shutting down” this time?

Mongostein,

Cry. Let it happen man. I’m tearing up thinking about what that would be like. Fuck being manly. Cry.

The only way to get over these feelings is to let them run their course. You’ll never get over it, but you’ll learn to live with it.

Mongostein,

I’m not trying to cover that part, just the now.
