Agreed! I miss my Samsung CLP. That was a real battle horse!

Yet, the talk was about printer ink and it is really hard to beat the price for that much ink, for those machines.

Fun fact: I don’t even own one of those machines. I have a Canon. Still cheaper than HP cartridges but those assholes tie the entire machine operation to the cartridges.

I was thinking about the doll house. But that was savage, nonetheless.

It is just a toy…

Ugh, I keep getting an error when posting a reply so I just repeat the send.

Thank you for the warning.

I’ll pass.

I really don’t know what kind of answer I am expected to give, following yours.

Perhaps, I don’t care how americans think and how they treat individuals with different views in life is reasonable?

The fiation with fitting (forcing) individuals into labels, then attached to groups, to isolate people is hideous.

I do not care about the sexual orientation (or lack thereof) of an individual in order to engage with that person on a personal, social or professional setting.

I am dealing with a human being with the exact same aspirations I have and, as such, that person is worthy of respect by default.

If a single word is viewed as a taunt or whatever it may be by default, even if the person using it explains the reason for it, that alone states that any atempt of dialogue in stunted at the bud.

That is utter stupidity.

What that proposes is to hold someone, anyone, guilty by default, with no proof.

Are you me when I was back in school? Is this a loop hole?

Yes, much of which we learn in school seems/feels unnecessary to a perceived/imagined/planned personal future but its the variety of subjects that creates the basis for multi layered reasoning.

I am painfully aware Lemmy is mostly populated by high technically proficient individuals but the world is not about to be handled by machines and AI, not now and I risk not ever, simply because there are tasks that can not and should not ever be handled by a machine.

IT and tech is not the cusp of human achievement.

You had a bad experience. I respect that. I have not.

Unless we can force a certificate of origin from your local optician for the lenses and the frames, there is a good chance we are actually purchasing material made in PRC.

Regarding service, I’ve used glasses for so long I learned how to maintain, fit and fix minor damage to my glasses.

And regarding quality, even when I paid a lot more money, a pair of glasses would last for about a year, give or take a couple of months. I get the same time from a cheaper set of glasses. So, no gain in spending more.

In my understanding, sprouting from my native language, which is not english, “lifestyle” means how you navigate through life, as in how you dress, speak and act amongst people. It has no denigrating conotation.

Epson is running the market hard with their EcoTank printer. I’ve seen one litre bottles for less than €50.

If not, go for refurbished/refilled cartridges.

I still remember the fun of refilling old HP cartridges for a dime a dozen.

Buy from China.

I took the gamble because I had the money to spare and never looked back again.

The money I would pay for a set of glasses in my country goes easily over €300. With that amount, I can pay an ophthalmologist appointment, have my eyes checked by a doctor, properly, get the prescription, order two sets of glasses (one as a backup) and still have money to spare.

You’re right! And it states “I really don’t care about acquiring knowledge”.

How busy are you to go that lenght to supposedly save time?

How busy is your life that you can’t be bothered to actually study to learn?

So, first you need to learn how to set up the printer, then fetch the bot produced text, review (hopefully), load it to the printer, run a test to determine it every part is working, run the “print”, review it…

I’d risk doing it yourself would be quicker
