  • It's an inkjet thing.

    When you run out of color, Brother lets you select to print using only black ink. But after 4 weeks, they lock you out from that too.

    It's documented on their website. No more printing at that point until you replace the offending color cartridge. They do at least let you scan though.

    Meanwhile I have printed exactly one single black-only page since the last time I put in a new yellow cartridge (3 months ago) and yet my yellow ink is almost 1/4 depleted at this point. I've just been watching it slowly disappear.

  • Try removing the problematic video from your history. That usually seems to help.

  • Ah, yes, Brother. The company that uses all your yellow ink to clean the print heads and to print tracking dots, and then only gives you up to 4 weeks to print without it before locking you out entirely.

  • How many of them would ever run an OS released in 2023?

  • systemd was invented because Upstart fell under Canonical's CLA

  • Yes, because IP68 is the better target. Surely you remember all the water damage issues with the S5?

  • It's a Heisenberg tradeoff. At a certain point you can either make them more impact resistant or more scratch resistant.

  • However, it's still unclear what underlying mechanisms may allow antibiotic resistance to spread in air pollution. It will be important for future studies to investigate this.

    Wat.

    Increased air pollution -> More respiratory illnesses - > More over-prescribing of antibiotics -> More antibiotic resistance

  • They tell you exactly where the unit is.

  • Things intended for local use, like Pihole also don't work on cloud servers without getting banned for DNS abuse.

    Are you talking about running a public DNS resolver?

    That's a very different topic that wasn't part of the original post as far as I can tell.

    There have always been (and there always will be) countless solutions for hosting a website for free. Even ignoring the security implications, mobile networks are not designed to do what you want to do. Full stop. If you can't find a cloud provider in 2023 that will host a free website that will meet your needs, you aren't looking hard enough.

    Mobile providers spend billions in CAPEX every single year to keep up with ever-increasing demand (spectrum, base stations, radios, antennas, etc.) and even then they can barely keep up in some areas.

    Every device attached to a given cell shares the resources of that cell. And uplink bandwidth is specifically scarce. Don't be a bad neighbor.

  • Typical T-Mobile. I have to do the same in certain cities.

  • It used to be totally free. Glancing at the reviews, many people were very upset when they switched to a $4.99 monthly subscription model.

    They did crowdsource the data (they have a companion app where they will pay you per property map). And as a result, they don't have information about every single complex. But I have found the data that is available has been invaluable to me in time savings.

    The app also defaults to HERE maps (with Google maps as an option), and some people don't seem to like those.

  • Beans

    Fastest I ever signed up for a recurring subscription.

  • All of the sub-$1 coins that I have ever received as change in my lifetime would not add up to $100. But I also don't use (or even carry) cash unless I absolutely must.

    Edit to add: I have a jar too. It's a standard mason jar. I started filling this one after my last move. In 2013.

    I have yet to fill it completely.

  • What's a good way to keep investing without just chasing success like a drug?

    Realistically?

    The short answer is ETFs.
