I found this help article where they say "Although not all non-genuine supplies may cause quality issues".

They said they recommend using theirs, but up until this they didn't say you couldn't.

Plus, it's been universally understood that you have been able to use third-party cartridges. I really think if you're persistent enough, you'd get a refund in Australia. Because else (in Victoria at least) you could take them to VCAT for like $70, which will cost them wayyy more in lawyer expenses than the price of a refund.

This is not legal advice, but I reckon a refund under Australian Consumer Law is extremely doable if they go down this path (for existing printers).

I'm curious how this will go down in Australia. Seems like a pretty solid slam dunk refund, oh the product doesn't work as advertised anymore?

Cool, I've had this for 5 years and now I'd also like a full refund under Australian Consumer Law.

Motherfuckers.

(I don't actually own a printer)

He'll be getting more 👍👍 https://www.forbes.com/sites/saradorn/2025/02/28/musk-reportedly-planning-new-starlink-deal-with-faa-raising-new-conflict-of-interest-concerns/

I wonder if they "Spanish" flu it all over again by claiming it started elsewhere.

Write down your set up codes on a piece of paper (or, just the important ones to get access to your digital backups) the others can live within your app of choice.

(Keepass2Android is a great, free app. Just toss a couple of coins to your dev if you're feeling generous)

You are underestimating how many people will give up at the slightest inconvenience.

I can tell you, when vigorously enforced, you can get the vast majority of a population to play within your walled garden (China, as an example).

Sweden however, yeah, unless they wanna go full internet firewall, not sure exactly how they plan on enforcing this.

I also do not enjoy the taste of fish. High five haha

There can be absolutely zero doubt that Trump is a Russian stooge

AI can't imagine an image full glass of wine because there are barely any images of that in any dataset out there. AI can't think, just massage it's dataset into something vaguely plausible.

It's almost like this not-for-profit, for-profit subsidiary thing is a cancer (or at least, my selection bias of late thinks so).

Can someone ELI5 why a foundation can't develop these products directly, with a for-profit subsidiary? Is there something forbidden about rasing revenue for a not-for-profit via product sales? Would this even fix anything?

I really wish the media would stop misusing words for clicks.

He interrupted Trump to firmly fact check him.

"Brutally"? Look at what they did to my boy "slammed". Suddenly brutally is going to mean, gently.

Seems like this scene was a very effective safety moment haha (Something we do at the start of meetings in my industry - chemical engineering)

Thanks for sharing, this is batshit insane. When you're political ideology starts to run against reality, it's a sign to adapt your ideology, not enforce a new "reality".

As a leftist, modern communists with a hard-on for the Soviet Union baffle me. My comrades, they weren't liberating the masses of the fraud of religion, they were just creating their own...

Wikipedia seems to not be unanimous on the brain-to-body ratio claim. There's a discussion link next to the citation.

It's all fun* and games until there's human to human transmission.

(*Darwin award "fun")

As someone who's been to China a handful of times in recent years. No. None of the VPNs I've tried work any longer. Couldn't tell you the technical reasons why, just that they just no longer work.

If the US decides to implement a great firewall, people who aren't very software savvy are basically screwed.

In fairness, people were much more communal than society is now. And there's a bunch of stuff that we did for most of human history that is no longer the norm. Even something simple as a "phone" no longer means what it used to.

I think you're gonna have to take the L that a "school" by default is not at home in the modern world.

Public school are schools run/funded by the public (the government)

Private schools are run/funded by private businesses.

These are schools.

No one refers to your home schooling as a "school". We refer to what you're doing as home schooling.

Sorry bud.

Awwww yeaaah. Welcome friend, stay a while

This is fair, however, not ubiquitous and all their servers are expected to place nice with others.

Thank god email is federated, and not locked down to a particular company

It's very common, but in Australia at least, not ubiquitous.

And obviously businesses mostly do not
