I’m just lucky the guy in front of me didn’t have his truck configured to roll coal, giving me a smokescreen in addition to blinding high beam.

You’d have said goodbye to your head as well, because that lifted truck isn’t going into the rear of the small car… it’s going up and over.

it’s all fun and games until they pull out the real gun.

I called the incident into the police station but it was before I had the dashcam so they just shrugged (and were probably blood related anyway).

Yup… drove a small car back from college and two truck bros decided it’d be fun to sandwich my car between them. One rode my rear bumper with high beams, the other slowed down and rode the middle line so I couldn’t pass. Then he’d start slamming his brakes.

If you are using a network level block, make sure it’s a black hole and not just a DNS filter. I tried a DNS filter with a Roku and found that they bypass it with hardcoded values, even when the DNS server was statically assigned and DHCP assigned.

I can’t believe people still look at Hz and think it’s a sole metric that can be used for performance.

Do you think they look at the 2005 Pentium 4’s 3.8GHz and assume it’s only slightly worse than what Nvidia will put on the market?

You aren’t speaking the same language, apparently:

wait wait… reading comprehension fail on my part. Both that NBC article and Wikipedia are saying that Kodak went against the grain by selling more expensive printers with cheaper ink.

Eastman Kodak Co. is introducing a line of desktop printers and low cost replacement inks on Tuesday, as the photography company takes on a market dominated by Hewlett-Packard.

That’s wild!

I had my inkjet from around 2011 to 2015. I think it was a C310 but I can’t find any proof of that. I only know it took the 30B/C cartridges.

They were $25-30 for a bundle on a retailer’s shelf while everything else was closer to $50-70 for a bundle on a retailer’s shelf. There was a 20% yield difference between the two, but that’s no 20% markup! I vaguely recall a 30B double pack that was only $15 total, and that’s what I used to buy once or twice a year. None of that hidden “Cyan mixed in the black to make it blacker” crap that HP did either.

How ironic that Kodak rigged the game to make ink expensive, and then others beat them at it.

Funny, I had a Kodak printer for years since they had the cheapest ink by a large margin. HP was always the most expensive.

What year did that flip?

I would have guessed a keycard inserted in a reader.

Hate to break it to you, but Facebook (ahem, sorry Meta) loves collecting your info even if you never use their services. So your info might be in this breach, even if you don’t have a username/password.
