From the title and picture, I thought this was some weird diss on the depicted Brother laser printer and stopped by to defend it. Fortunately it is, instead, tauting the superiority of Brother laser printers.

I own the depicted printer, or one very close to it, and it is a workhorse. Brother laser printers are the way.

No, I still see it. Not sure why, maybe because I commented on it.

I’ve had several comments behave the same way, unable to actually delete them, even after waiting a while for the delete to propagate.

No need to be so defensive… unless you you the F-Droid team they are writing about. Are you?

Either way it is just whataboutism aimed at a strawman. No one is saying proprietary software is better.

NAL, but it would likely be enough for a felony obstruction of justice charge. Add to that, depending on specifics of Apple’s legal response (and whether they throw the employee under the bus,) a CPAA charge for exceeding authorized access in a computer system.

Isnt NewPipe still making calls to YouTube from your IP? I think you’d need to also configure it to use an Invidious or Piped instance.

Commiting felonies to antagonize a DOJ lawyer personally would be a whole different level of stupid.

I once got an Apple Watch as a bonus at work. Had to sell it to a buddy because I couldn’t use it without an iPhone. So dumb.

I have Nitter Redirect installed, but Nitter stopped working. So it just blackholes all X links. Some day I’ll add them to my pihole, I guess.

What are you doing, step-printer!?

Reading comprehension is important. As is a highschool level understanding of how our legal system works.

Lemmy now has export/import for settings, including blocklist.

You know, we also have a very sturdily built Brother sewing machine and I never noticed that they’re the same company that made our printer.

How am I to tell who is a tankie, vs a wumao, vs a Russian bot troll? It can be hard to tell who is commenting in good faith.

I’m kidding, of course. I just block them all. No one using these talking points is worth my time.

Gotta love tankies unironically parroting Putin’s disinformation.

its pretty clear. You’re conversing with a tankie.

As an outsider with a researcher PhD in the family, I suspect its an issue of how the institutions measure success. How many papers? How many cites? Other metrics might work, but probably not as broadly. I assume they will also care about the size of your staff, how much grant money you get, patents held, etc.

I suspect that, short of a Nobel prize, it is difficult to objectively measure how one is advancing scientific progress (without a PhD committee to evaluate it.)

Brother gang, rise up

More important question for me:

what is the oldest MacOS with xcode support (and therefore oldest I can run brew on)?

I keep meaning to figure this out.
