That title seems like a lot to assume from the "study". An online survey? Really? Even the follow-up was tiny. At best, this seems like it's a hint for further research.

I've had a Brother laser printer for years now. Zero regrets. I'm never going back to the ink jet mafia.

They're not great.

My dad signed up somehow years ago. He doesn't even have a printer anymore. He swears he's canceled, but I keep seeing a monthly bill. They aren't even sending him ink. Thanks for reminding me that I need to get the bank to stop charges.

Honestly, I'd rather hear about it when it actually happens. I'm getting tired of all this teaser justice headline crap.

I have a hardcover Mark Twain anthology. It's either that or the Jack London collection.

God, I can't even force myself to read his word shit salads anymore. I guess that means I'm sane.

Mostly because he wouldn't be able to fill it with booze.

According to the people who know me intimately, the AI is gonna nope out even harder than I am.

Are we sure this wasn't carved from somebody's arse? Because it looks like arse.

Podcast Addict has worked for years for me, and he's constantly improving it. Why the fuck would I ever want a paid service to manage and profit on the podcasts I've always listened to for free?

I'm not sure I realized that. Are you getting that info just from the app store, or are you detecting it somewhere else?

I've thoroughly enjoyed my Kindle Paperwhite. I've had it for six years now. I've occasionally cursed it when it forgets the WiFi, but that hasn't really happened a lot.

The phone app has a lot more features, but it hurts to read on something that small and heavy for very long.

Weird. Doesn't he usually show up on toast?

It seems to me that the people watching the most porn are creating most of the laws.

    It's almost exactly what happened in Utah. Voters decided. Mormons, Inc. said "nope" and that was that. Oh, and then they gerrymandered the fuck out of the state to keep it red for at least another ten years.

    The mob that killed him in jail was upset about the press he'd ordered burnt down after they publicly criticized him.

    Narcissists aren't particularly interested in admitting even little mistakes, so I doubt it.

    Fusion 360 increasing annual price to $680 USD (lemmy.world)

    Got this email from Autodesk that Fusion is increasing their annual price by a huge amount. I subbed for 1 year a couple years ago for I think $380. Then I was able to get an educational sub after that. Fusion is still the cheapest CAD software out there, not including the free stuff like FreeCAD, but still, this price increase...

    And they make it tricky as hell to find the hobbyist license. I really hate this exploitative shit. Same for Adobe.

    What do they think we've already been doing this whole time? It's why we prefer to have the lights out in the office.

    I'll bet Kissinger winning the Nobel Peace Prize wasn't on his radar, though.

    About damn time. This is how you know karma isn't real.

    Yeah, but the minotaur would get tired of walking around and die of exhaustion, but not before its wife said, "Stop being such a baby. This is fun!"
