My dad has a Samsung (made by HP) printer in his office. It's a gamble whether it will actually print something and another gamble if said print will actually have toner on it.

And the gamble is not in your favour.

I don't think I've read a single headline or article in recent years where HP wasn't being called out for being an absolute steaming pile of dog shit.

You couldn't pay me to use their products. What a rancid company.

Hmm, let's see...

  • Kernel-level malware. Check.
  • Missing features that existed in previous titles. Check.
  • Features will be sold back to you at extensive cost. Check.
  • Base game is $100CAD after tax. Check.
  • Upgraded versions are $145CAD and $190CAD after tax. Check.

I wonder why it has less sales.

Not exactly the same as what you mean, but A&W.

A&W restaurants here in Canada are entirely Canada owned and operated, based out of BC.

In the short term: Yes. Unless the US military decides to remove a sitting president but that is extremely unlikely.

In the long term: Yes, but also no. Fascism is extremely inefficient and expensive and the US is destroying its own economy and pushing away all of its allies and former trade partners. Things will get very rough but it will not last forever. There will be a lot of rebuilding that needs to be done.

Unfortunately this has been a long time coming. The United States has never really been united and it was only a matter of time before another possible civil war loomed on the horizon.

!g literally sends you to google.

!sp does not

Using another search engine just to send yourself back to google defeats the point.

I'm not sure what the hell you are on about.

Using DDG to route into Google defeats the point of avoiding Google in the first place.

Use !sp instead to route your search through Startpage, which is essentially Google without the Google BS.

Ditching gmail remains one of the best choices I've made in years.

Contact your MLA and MP. Contact your mayor and city councillors. Contact Elections Canada.

Tell your friends and family to do the same. Make noise. Make a stink.

 

A little something I put together in Blender and Affinity Photo :D

I hate how long volumes take to render but they look so pretty...
