Sarcastik , in PLEAAASSEE PLEASE COME BACK TO THE OFFICE PLS

I’m shocked people still read: Forbes, fortune and business insider.

What ever legitimacy they once held in the business world is long gone. All three of them went click bait long before COVID (BI was always a click bait outfit) and I find their content to be on par with UK gossip rags or the National Enquirer.

Suggestion, start filtering out these three sites from your news gathering and stop sharing articles on social media from them. It’ll make the world a better place!

HobbitFoot ,

Yeah, but The Economist has reported the same and it is considered to be a decent source of journalism.

I find it funny that Lenin, love him or hate him, had the definitive take on The Economist 100 years ago.

Once Forbes realized they could influence a stock price, it was over for any journalistic integrity they had. I don't know how anyone can take them seriously, when literally all they write can be condensed down to "Ultra-capitalism"

Rayspekt ,

I had to chuckle after I saw that Forbes now reports on League of Legends patch notes. Wtf bruh.

timkmz ,

Is this real? Thats awsome, just because league needs more recognition. And more people addicted :D

FoxFairline , in wait yo how do i change it back
@FoxFairline@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Speaking of linus. Why are they still not on the fediverse? They should have their own instance and everything. Would create a lot of content for them.

And for as much as Linus advocates for consumer choice and open access.

hoshikarakitaridia ,

I mean tbf you never know

Might be on their list but low priority. Might be too early into development to check out. Or maybe they literally don’t know about about anything other than mastodon?

8rhn6t6s ,

They already have a forum and content with it.

Planetur , in You didn't bought it you rented it!

I got a printer where I fill up the ink tank myself. Fuck all these other printers.

protput ,

I also do this with the toner of my laser printer.

Even bras are too demanding now. Damn.

SOB_Van_Owen , in You didn't bought it you rented it!

A shame to hear how far HP has fallen. Back in the day they had some solid, workhorse laser printers that delivered for years with no issues and pretty good toner efficiency. Based on what I’ve read here, I’m not likely to buy another.

rezifon ,

HP peaked with the LaserJet IIIsi. It’s all been downhill ever since.

Brother.

Love my brother laser printer. I’ve had it for years, print infrequently, haven’t had to change toner once, and it works everytime I ask it to print on the first time

Turns out that didn’t make the stock price go up fast enough to enable buy-backs for the execs.

SadRevan , in Me trying to convince my friends to join Lemmy

This is very important to me, thank you

Deez OP ,

You’re welcome, enjoy the raccoons!

TesterJ , in funny because true

I once signed up for something that required separate home and cell phone numbers. Some shipping service or something. And it wouldn’t let me put the same number for both. Like come on, nobody is paying for landlines nowadays. I ended up putting my parents’ phone number for the home phone (which they coincidentally just got rid of this week.)

maniclucky ,

(AreaCode) 867-5309 is your friend in this and for random “Insert your phone number for the rewards program” things.

tryplot ,

fun fact: most phone companies do not allow that phone number to be given out due to too many people calling it as a direct result of that song.

avapa ,

I have two landline numbers that came with my internet contract but I don’t have a phone connected to the modem. So whenever your scenario happens to me I just give them one of my real landline numbers. I’ve tried calling myself and you can actually hear it ringing as the caller but no one will ever pick up lol

We have robots. It’s the future now. We should be retiring at 85 while the robots live in luxurious sky cities.

I, for one, welcome our new robot overlord.

ciagovv , in You didn't bought it you rented it!

Buy a brother printer instead. They may be a bit more expensive, but their easy mantainance and the amount of bootleg ink you can find online makes it worth the extra price.

u_tamtam ,
@u_tamtam@programming.dev avatar

Last time this came up, people were quick to bring up brother, and others (and that was new) to mention that brother started to do the same crap (limiting 3rd party toners). So I really don’t know what to think of them anymore.

I could be in the market for a b&w laser printer/scanner soon so I’ll keep an eye on replies here.

ahriboy ,

Do Epson printers have DRM on the ink?

maiskanzler ,

Kind of, yes. 603XL has many compatible options, but the 604 of current printers was not available for cheap when I looked a few months ago.

u_tamtam ,
@u_tamtam@programming.dev avatar

IIRC unless you go ecotank-tier, you are pretty much guaranteed some surprises. Good that they have a “reasonable” range, though.

HortiEastwood ,

Brother pulls similar shit. My brother printer day my ink is out, and prints shittty pages, but the test page it prints is absolutely gorgeous.

Hobo ,

Change the print settings to a higher dpi and/or adjust the density. You might have to fiddle around with some other settings in there to get it how you like it. Generally if the test page prints okay there’s something wokny with the print settings for whatever app/driver. Test pages print with preset settings, so they are standardized.

Could be unrelated, and you might just have issues with the printer head, but I’ve closed a more than a few tickets back in the day for people by adjusting print settings for them (these were brother label printers so YMMV).

Here’s a generic KB for doing this on most models of Brother printers:

HortiEastwood ,

This is amazing. Thank you for your help friend. I will try this.

bitflag ,

In my experience laser Brothers are still less fussy and way more reliable and durable than competing brands.

BurtReynoldsMustache ,

Yep, my Brother is basically useless because it refuses to recognize 3rd party ink cartridges, I’m really angry about it.

I’ve seen a dog before.

I’ve seen burgers before.

I’ve seen the sky before.

I’ve never seen all three at once though. Are you sure they aren’t all the same thing? It could be government psyops to convince you dogs and burgers aren’t the same person

ElBarto ,

Definitely a Bluebeam psyop for sure, they love using religious icons in their false flag sky holograms.
