Didn't even got to the first boss my first "try" (actually a lot of tries) and shelved it as "I'm not gud enough"

After a colleague nagged me about it again I gave it another try (with a guide this time) and it clicked! 10/10 game of the decade

True, but usually you buy them from retailers... This way they cut out the middleman. And the chance that you use 3rd party inks (although, that "security risk" got patched with firmware upgrades)

Also, they don't just send you ink... It's a monthly plan where you have x pages included. Unused pages are rolled over 3 times [1] and afterwards they probably are just lost.

Further, if you cancel the subscription, containers you received within the subscription wont work anymore.

Damn, I knew it was bad, but now that I read the details it's even worse...

They probably are waiting to not be alone...

Nono, you buy the printer and AFTERWARDS they sell you a subscription on top.

That way they get paid twise, much better...

Yes it does, and when I click on it, the Clock app opens... With all the bells and whistles

Ah, nevermimd... Just got the info a few minutes ago, it's mandatory again.

That was last year, now it is an offence if you have your pinky up...You HAVE TO STAY UP TO DATE, MAN!!!

Its the last version ist the one you just got, the final the one with the filename "offer_final_final_nowreally_2.0_final_actuallyfinal.pdf"

Is it though? They stuff more and more things into the clock app... Somehow nobody wants to maintain 'just an app that shows the time' it needs timers, stop watches, world time, weather and whatever is somehow related to time

I would, but they don't ship to my country :sadface:

Yeah and there is a big issue. I would place myself as quite tech savvy, but last time i looked for a distrobI got overwhelmed... Good thing: there are questionnaires that lead you to a good enough suggestion... Back then it proposed mint

But then the next question: which desktopp environment?

I installed on my huawei matebook and it worked okay-ish, but it had one dealbreaker: even with a lot of tinkering there was no way I got standby or hibernation to work. Which is a must for me...

So I removed mint and installed kubuntu... Now standby and even hibernate work (kind of) But it totally craps up when I try to use my external monitor together with the internal screen... Even a lot of terminal tinkering later I don't have it working... Oh and the speakers still crap now

There is a lit of information around how to maybe get stuff working, but a lot of it requires a lot of upfront knowledge:

• a lot of questions are answered with "yeah, enter that in your terminal" without any explanation what exactly it does (which is bad in two ways in my opinion)
• a lot of official documentation doesn't explain very well what the configs do and what syntax etc. is expected
• there is often a lot of elitism around that really pushes away newcomers

EmI do love tinkering, but sometimes it's really frustrating even for me. No way I could my GF to try that out..

Definitely Sicily, they get wiped out in this plan... .

Yeah you have to make it longer...can't place 15 ads on a text with one paragraph

I especially love the cases where I want to check if and when series xy continues "get the Release Date of Series XY season 5" And then there is a wall of text that summarizes season 1-4 and how everybody is waiting for season 5 to then say that the date is not out yet...

And didn't make an IOS upgrade back in the days the iPhone waterproof? And another one enabled fast charging in the microwave oven...
