- Comment on No Tech for Apartheid: Google Workers Arrested for Protesting Company’s $1.2B Contract with Israel 3 weeks ago:
These are not the type of job for someone struggling so much. This is tech work. Googlers are very privileged.

Wow, that’s disgusting. Have you no morals? Shame on you.

It tends to be a little slower than mainstream social media, but I don’t expect that to be comparable nor do I expect it to improve quickly.
The user base is too small.

Very glad I overwrote all of my comments with random words before deleting my account. They won’t be profiting off of me anymore.

Gotcha, thank you for the info. Gotta admit their made-up words are pretty funny
- Comment on Windows 11 24H2 to enforce hardware requirement - gHacks Tech News 2 months ago:
That makes sense, but remember that security patches are backported to old kernels for quite a long time. Therefore, using an LTS release of Linux should extend a computer’s life longer than Windows.

Switch to Linux, lol.

AI is far too broad of a term, for sure.

- Comment on Audacity adds AI audio editing capabilities thanks to free Intel OpenVINO plugins 2 months ago:
AI, like cloud computing, is just a layman’s term for something else. You will not be able to stem the tide of language changing. It just means machine learning now. Just like how cloud computing is just a term for computing in a k8s cluster in someone’s data center.

- Comment on HP TV ads claim its printers are 'made to be less hated' 5 months ago:
HP’s own laser printers are actually still spared of this nonsense. I use their supplies for best results as I used to contract with them and did repairs on their business customer’s machines. A large number of repair requests were caused by damage from 3rd party cartridges with low quality fusers that would cause toner to clog the mechanism.

I would be very surprised if it weren’t.
- Comment on HP TV ads claim its printers are 'made to be less hated' 5 months ago:
Any model that comes with an HP+ free trial subscription will stop working after the trial ends. You can then go out and buy “non instant ink” cartridges for a high price or you can sign up for their monthly subscription and get new ink and paper in the mail whenever it runs low. It’s a scummy aggressive marketing tactic.

No word on platform availability but I’m nearly certain Linux will be one of the platforms.

- Comment on HP TV ads claim its printers are 'made to be less hated' 5 months ago:
It depends on the model, some actually require some level of subscription to even function.
- Comment on HP TV ads claim its printers are 'made to be less hated' 5 months ago:
There have always been for all brands, but they are usually part of a leasing contract for businesses. The new thing is that HP is trying to trick consumers into similar contracts even though most have no need for it.
- Comment on HP TV ads claim its printers are 'made to be less hated' 5 months ago:
But half of their modern printers require a monthly paid subscription to even function. They need to stop doing that.
