That’s hardly an insult.

ITT: “My [insert model] has had it since 1865, SNORE!”

You had me for a second there bud.

Or one of these https://lemmy.world/post/29579726

I had a stake in the company because my parents owned the shop I worked in. But I still didn’t care when some dickhead threatened me with a “you just lost a cistomer.” My dad told me not to take shit from asshole customers if I knew for sure I was not in the wrong. They usually came crawling back a week after pretending nothing ever happened.

Oh and he also told me to provide the best service we could to the normal customers so that they become our favourite customers.

Are you suggesting there are people who die each year as a direct result of having a laser printer in their homes? If so, is there a source?

I’m curious because the person you’re responding to seems to be aware that the risk (harm) is real, but negligible. You seem to suggest the harm is so bad and unavoidable that it’s not worth buying a laser printer.

Thank you kindly! It just seems so weird that Toyota and even Japan seems so gung-ho about it. I guess it’s a case of sunk cost fallacy?

I’m not a car guy so I don’t understand why your view seems to be so popular on the Internet (at least in the Anglosphere).

Is Toyota doing the Sony thing where they double down on a certain — perhaps less practical — format in hopes that it will make them money if/when it gets adopted as an industry standard?

Ooh, I don’t think I saw those in my trip to Europe over a decade ago. They’re nice; they look so much more compact.

TIL teen girls still used Facebook.

Ah I see I’m just judging a book by the cover; I guess he’s worse than he looks.

I don’t watch any of his stuff, and he’s probably a nice guy, but I hate him from what little thumbnails I’ve seen of his videos. He looks like a shitty DreamWorks character.

We had fun fundraising so I’m kinda surprised to see it from your point of view. It does kinda suck now that you mention it lol

We had bake sales, BBQs, auctions, guessing the number of candies in a jar etc… but I guess it all came out of our parents’ pockets when they already were paying through taxes.

What a great proverb. Thank you for that.

It might save me from carrying my laptop around when I travel for work. I only ever need to do zoom calls, browsing, and text editing, so just the extra real estate alone would be helpful. But then TVs are hung on angles that are not optimal for working and the ones in hotels have shitty resolutions so I’d probably have to carry my external monitor. In which case, I may as well just bring my laptop instead (or both the laptop and screen).

I think your usecase — for those who don’t have PCs — makes a lot more sense.

I swear they’ve been writing the same article for a year.

I’m SO happy I chose to switch to Linux as my daily driver.

face to face > video > chat > call because not being able to see a person’s facial expression scares the crap out of me. I need to calm my nerves before important calls by simulating the conversation with AI.

They got bought out by Canva though, so I’m sure the enshittification will follow. Such a shame.

I dunno why but I can’t even log into KDE when I select wayland. The screen just turns black and unresponsive :(
