My HP is good, but it's one of the liquid ink ones instead of cartridges. Got for PPS support so I new it would just print things on my network.

Wish I had a open source option though. And or at least a manufacturer that was possibly using slave labor (made in China and all that).

I lied about my age online a WHILE ago and I'm going to let you know old farts get bombarded too.

Its gotten better since my old persona died I think (you know over 120 is just out of most marketers age ranges).

I hate ads with a passion, if a friend shows me a video and an ad pops up I show them how to use fence and ad blockers on their phone right away.

I remember there was like a twilight where yelp was helpful, then it wasn't and I learned all their shady shit and went "yeah that explains it".

Reddit has a longer amount of content to burn through but if it becomes just husks of communities puppetted by corporate pr firms it's going to just slowly cannibalize.

I don't disagree that there is a ton of development from volunteers and non profit (ngos, Universitys and governments) but the majority seems to be from big tech at the moment.

Just saying they are contributing a lot and in those ways the Internet is better for it.

Used to be a bigger fan, but for the same reason I became more libertarian I'm not so sure it's a practical philosophy. The biggest issue is that as soon as someone decides what is or isn't good genetics you get a lot of bias. The majority of the human experience is social anyways.

Do you use any Firefox or chromium web browser, JavaScript, HTML5, CSS, or WASM because I'm 90% most of the development for all of that comes from Ad companies or companies funded by ads.

Left over fajitas and refined beens.

Not the guy, but I hope it's oat milk based. Very creamy milk, kind of airy frozen.

Its amazing how many older people I've talked to that have said "where did you hear that, that's the first I'm hearing of it" for like major things. Like geopolitical decisions of the president, what Trump was actually convicted on, what reports actually say on the causes of inflation are, etc.

They watch tons of news, but honestly besides the headline, a spin, and how I should feel about I never got much from what they watch...

Listen I don't wanna just rag on you, because you came at me with bait and what feels like an a condescending attempt to sound smart.

Do you mind just explaining what you are thinking and we could just talk about it? Transformers are fucking awesome, fucking magmatsm and shit, tons of uses. I think there is some interesting discussion here if you actually want to have it.

Oh man no doubt, EVs, campers, boats, and some super scaler's get interesting with midscale DC, but trying to find codes of electricians that know about or the safety code for it is a challenge.
