  Exactly this. I don’t think I’ve ever heard someone say anything like goddamn shitbiscuit, and only heard things like god fucking dammit when they’ve had time to stop and think about it.

  It’s much more likely for someone here to grunt or suck through their teeth, or maybe something short like shit.

  I’ve got a Lexmark laser printer, and while there are cheaper subscription toners, you can pay the higher price for normal toner, and buy compatibles, for now at least.

  That’s good to know, thanks :)

  I’ve got a few services running on my aging media server, so I want to start doing it properly, and getting a proper home sever going. I’ve used ssh for some of the basics in the past, but I need to start using that more too :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How does patientgamers feel about free games on Epic?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m still on Windows for now, so I use a PortableApps installation to claim the games instead of a phone. I do the same for my wife and kid too. Neither of them has the Epic installer 🤷🏻‍♂️😁

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Struggling to get the service manual for a Beko washing machine⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Most appliances just have the main parts available for replacement, rather than the individual components. You would just change the main board rather than replace a resistor, for example.

  If you don’t know how to find the broken component on a board, that’s not something that the service manual would help you with either. There’s too much of a risk of someone hurting themselves for the washing machine companies to go to that level of detail.

  At that point you would need to figure out which part is broken and either replace the whole thing, or take it to a repair shop, but that would probably cost more than buying the whole part as a replacement.

  So, if I understand you correctly, what you’re saying is - given the quite large body of water about half a mile away from me, all downhill, I should get a giant catapult and fling some piranha.

  I’ll go down in history, either for the best April Fools joke ever, or if my aim is off, the best Halloween prank ever 🐟🐠🐟😁
