people always say this, but 95% of what i print is index and reference cards that need colour :( I would love to get a B&W printer, but i need the colours.

Yes. Co-worker got a super cheap printer, and then tried to cancel the ink subscription. turns out he couldn’t just buy ink from them, and his printer was useless.
Utter shocked Pikachu face. its a concept that has been around for 100 years, and no-one did it before for a big reason.
I have never pre-ordered a game.
I have however pre-ordered collectables which “come with a game” (despite the collectables likely being more than the game) or the privilege of being able to hang out with my friends at midnight to collect a game on release. And of those games Halo 2, Halo 3, and Battlefield 3 were the only 3.
These days there is even less reason to pre-order, but where I lived and the local small game shop, sometimes the only way to get a game within the first MONTH of release was a pre-order, where the store would literally… Pre order. Its not a pre-order for you at the store, its the store ordering it from the distributor / publisher.
The very first game i ever purchased on Steam was a game where i went in for the 3rd week in a row and they said “sorry, still not had any come in for re-stock”.
And now even more than ever is a BETTER time to pre-order. “Back in my days” good fucking luck being able to return a game if the 7 seals of security purity were not damaged. now, almost universal refunds for digital goods from most of the major game platform hosts.
When musk hired ex NASA or VW employees 👍
When other companies hire ex twitter / Tesla staff 😡😤😡
Yes that is the famous Rainbow Sketch which leaked. It was very similar to that, but with alien characters from an advert Argos (UK catalogue store) was launching for Christmas 2012
There is an unreleased and un-leaked version of the 2012 ARGOS Christmas advert, not dissimilar to the infamous “rainbow for adults” sketch which leaked many years ago.
To watch it we had all our phones taken away from us, and there was a pretty thorough “OK you all saw it, funny hey, time to destroy the CD”
Fusion 360: we have unnecessarily decided to force you to use the cloud for this product
Also Fusion 360: *Noooo all you free users are using up too much of our server space, you will have to pay.
Here is an idea, let me run it on my PC and it won’t use any of your servers
It is OK. Performance is a bit bumpy (expected) and communities are a lot quieter, but it is much much nicer here. Reddit is filled with absolute morons who scream SOURCE!!! every time they see a joke or opinion which doesn’t allign with their belief that children standing 8na. School yard deserved to die because they have the right to drive angiant car
Just like Etsy. Its a horrible place to try and build a business and be creative and make money, and is being overrun by dropshipped tat, but its where everyone goes to get nice things, so its where people have to sell
And if it’s anything like Twitter was, it won’t be very social
In the same week switching to DDG browser and to Lemmy. God dayum I wish there was a good alternative for Gmail.
Appreciate that these updates use the yyyy-mm-dd format :D
Then get an offline password manager. I have used DataVault on my phone for years. No subscription needed.
Maybe not the same, as its more of a service contract. At work, we have had a site which has been closed for 2 years. for 2 whole years, every week the vending machine company arrive, try to get in, can’t, ring us, and we say “that site is closed”.
Well we finally after 2 years got them to remove that site from their system?
Their response? to remove ALL food from ALL vending machines at all our sites, to remove the coffee machines, and to remove the water coolers. The water coolers are especially egregious, as they just sit there doing nothing. they are from tap water, so not even replacing bottles etc.
Sometimes subscriptions are useful. I wish the BBC TV licence in the UK was a subscription. I cannot justify spending £150 on a licence for an entire year, just to watch a month of shows. but other times it sucks. I just want Microsoft office. I don’t care if it will cost me £200. Right now my favourite game is subscription based, but i don’t think i can justify the £9.99 a month, or £50 for a whole year. £50 for lifetime access? maybe.
