I don't believe that they're even that capable. Probably really on LLMs to write every script for them and don't know whether or not it actually works.

We are boycotting Amazon products until they make another season of The Expanse

With the time skip, that's going to be a long boycott.

I've not had a Brother printer so, can't say from experience. My Epson Ecotank needed a driver to work. Setting it up on an RPi 3B with a CUPS server took care of it.

Some of me would probably survive. Having experience in agriculture would help there. Also, with enough of me, we might be and to keep some power generation running, as long as manuals could be found. The adaptability of AuADHD could help in a lot of ways... But the AuADHD of AuADHD would probably cause some of me to make silly oversights that on such a grand scale would get many of us killed.

On the plus side, shit would be pretty peaceful and I could get some good rest.

Because the built-in networking stack on printers is garbage and having to install drivers on every client sucks.

This is the way.

Printer manufacturers: Of course your printers need to be connected to the Internet... For... Reasons...

You can indeed buy better hardware for many purposes for cheaper.

Want a gaming laptop? Or a runs Linux out of the box laptop? FW is not even close to the best value there.

Want a laptop with well-documented physical specs, including CAD drawings to make readily modifiable and upgradeable, potentially being the last laptop chassis that one needs to buy? Nothing else comes close to touching FW.

I avoid ads, so, maybe they're inappropriately marketing as gaming laptops. I'd not call that a scam but would say that it's ethically questionable, at best. FW is a laptop for people prioritizing long-term repairability and tinkering over everything else.

...FW16 is a great Linux machine. It also had CAD drawings available that have been allowing me to sketch out possible physical modifications. It also has a PCIe 4.0 x4 available for either the GPU they sell or any other device that I decide to make.

What specifically about Framework do you think is a scam? I'd genuinely like to know since that's been the opposite of my experience.

True. I don't either. I want the bullshit to stop.

No. Demand a cut of the ad revenue as they are using your property as a billboard.
