From the title and picture, I thought this was some weird diss on the depicted Brother laser printer and stopped by to defend it. Fortunately it is, instead, tauting the superiority of Brother laser printers.

I own the depicted printer, or one very close to it, and it is a workhorse. Brother laser printers are the way.

No, I still see it. Not sure why, maybe because I commented on it.

I’ve had several comments behave the same way, unable to actually delete them, even after waiting a while for the delete to propagate.

No need to be so defensive… unless you you the F-Droid team they are writing about. Are you?

Either way it is just whataboutism aimed at a strawman. No one is saying proprietary software is better.

Teach a man to build a fire and he will be warm all night.

Set a man on fire and he will be warm the rest of his life.

With enough cocaine, you can stay awake for the rest of your life.

NAL, but it would likely be enough for a felony obstruction of justice charge. Add to that, depending on specifics of Apple’s legal response (and whether they throw the employee under the bus,) a CPAA charge for exceeding authorized access in a computer system.

Isnt NewPipe still making calls to YouTube from your IP? I think you’d need to also configure it to use an Invidious or Piped instance.

Commiting felonies to antagonize a DOJ lawyer personally would be a whole different level of stupid.

I once got an Apple Watch as a bonus at work. Had to sell it to a buddy because I couldn’t use it without an iPhone. So dumb.

Nah, fuck off with your strawman. I was just describing the reality, not suggesting that it is any kind of solution. Holding them accountable would be great, but kids often don’t have that option.

Much of Appalachia is the same. If you don’t talk like a redneck, you get picked on. The smart kids with social savvy will learn to code switch.

I have Nitter Redirect installed, but Nitter stopped working. So it just blackholes all X links. Some day I’ll add them to my pihole, I guess.

What are you doing, step-printer!?

I use a VPN back to my LAN, so my phone always uses my pihole for DNS.

Which is why we should refer to them as “DMs” or “direct messages”.

Reading comprehension is important. As is a highschool level understanding of how our legal system works.

You know, we also have a very sturdily built Brother sewing machine and I never noticed that they’re the same company that made our printer.

How am I to tell who is a tankie, vs a wumao, vs a Russian bot troll? It can be hard to tell who is commenting in good faith.

I’m kidding, of course. I just block them all. No one using these talking points is worth my time.
