  Not that HP isn’t aware or not ticked off about this, mind. Recently they threatened to brick HP printers that use third-party cartridges if detected

  Try that in EU.
  I dare you. I double dare you.

  I print all kinds of usefull stuff.
  Custom installation panel for after market navigator/media center for my car, upholstery fasteners for the same, custom panels for usb button box, cable organizers for lan cabling, newspaper reading stand, you name it.
  Might not be financially feasible, but it’s fun.

  Bollocks. Nokia 800 tough, 2660 flip, 2720 flip, 225 4g, 6300 4g, 8000 4g - just from one manufacturer, and there’s plenty of others.

  Not all phones are smartphones. Theres still plenty of use cases for call/sms only phones.

  In small scale old truck/semi batteries are pretty good energy storage solution. Not good enough for round the year use in transportation, but quite usefull in small scale energy storage. (I have a set of 10 attached to solar panels at summer cottage. Enough to run 12V lighting, fridge, fans and tv through the (short) night).

  Yeah, well, you know, that’s just, like, your opinion, whippersnapper.

  Setup.exe /product server ;) Not a magic bullet, but helps in many cases. You have to use older ISO, thou.

  I still do monthly service checks to industrial computers that use win3.11, 2000 and unix from early 90’s. When machines that costs even up to million to replace require legacy os, you scrounge up older hardware to run them as long as you can.

  Many companies I work with either sell their old workstations for pittance to their employees after we have nuked the drives or donate them to projects that provide laptops to students or refugees who can’t afford them.
  But many companies lease their hardware nowadays, so those end up to landfill or to companies that refurb them and sell them for profit.

  Nah. Google decides to ban your account for whatever reason, and your files and mails are gone, and you can’t even login to your computer. Linux is just as easy as windows nowadays, and in some cases even better for gaming.

  Miniatyrize ultrasound part, make it communicare with those glucose sensors that are placed on shoulder, make it portable enough and Presto! Artificial pancreas.

  And they can’t even dig that tit from their shirt properly. They can deliver managed enterprise printers quickly, but getting necessary onboarding info requires kidnapping a product manager and removing few fingers…

  Old Laserjet III and Jetdirect 500x. Can’t go much dumber than that.
