I told my girlfriend (now wife) when we moved in together that i had over rule: you’re not allowed to purchase anything HP. May the company burn in hell.
Huh. I had no idea! And I use DDG… But I feel like all search engines are shit these days. 50% of the hits are autogenerated translations with AI creating false .[country] domain (I’m in Denmark) which are just advertisements. I miss the old days of search engines. Fuck, even Alta Vista gave more right answers back in the Netscape days!
Wait, what? I’ve never heard about this before. It doesn’t change my mind that HP can go fuck themselves. I boycott because they have shit products and customer support. And I tell everyone I meet about it. Imagine me as a CrossFit vegan, only with an unhealthy hatred for HP.

I wouldn’t recommend it. I do pyrography, and used one that screws in the tip. Thought I’d turned it off > 10 minutes ago, and used my index and thumb to start unscrewing it.
I could first hear it. Like a tiny sizzle, imagine miniature bacon. It feels cold, but then I started understanding what the sound was.
Then I realised I’d just gotten burned. Hard. It’s not big, but I kept my fingers in water for a while to cool. Now I just have tiny scars that looks cool.
I’d rate it at 3/10.
I know you said it as a joke, and I have no idea why I wrote this reply, but here we are. Do with it as you please.
