Since Lickitung is a perfectly normal pokémon, I am a bit worried about what they'd call "weird".

I don't care if it's not likely to be exploited, the simple fact it would technically be possible to embed a virus in a freaking ink cartridge should be enough to never use their products again.

I have not bought a inkjet printer since forever because they've always been crap, and I have given up on laser printers for a long time too now... Nowadays I just don't think having a personal printer is worth the trouble.

But one of the factors in making this decision was that my last laser printer decided my toner needed to be replaced for absolutely no reason. I am not printing a lot, and it was nowhere near empty.

Turns out there is a built-in hardware check inside the toner which is purely time-based, and after a while it just decides the toner must be checked by support or replaced. I checked on the internet, there is a resistor you can change in the toner to reset the counter and make it "new" again.

I couldn't be bothered though. It was an old model, I was moving out, I knew a friend who was ready to mess with it so I gave it away, and I never bought another one.

Let's hope the obvious lie of the company will come back to bite them in the ass.

They insinuated he could only get that password from insider knowledge, when it would literally show up for anybody with notepad.

I am a bit overwhelmed by newer Sid Meier's Civilization rules, they used to be a lot simpler...

Un chat mort qui plus est...

Je veux dire, je suis pour qu'on puisse pas juste trucider un animal en toute impunité, mais j'ai du mal avec le concept de "percevoir des dommages et intérêts" dans ce cas.

Des paquets de pub, même!

Les bagnoles, le pinard, Gégé Depardieu... Et avec en plus ce relent de startup nation et de bullshit commercial.

C'est juste un improbable amalgame de stéréotypes de merde.

Je connais quelqu'un qui a régulièrement des problèmes de courrier parce que deux adresses sont presque exactement identiques et à deux kilomètres d'écart. En gros une rue et un lieu dit du patelin ont le même nom et utilisent les mêmes numéros.

Après les numéros métriques quand ça arrive sur des voies d'un km ou plus (et donc t'habites genre au 1599 comme l'exemple de l'article), c'est moche.

J'ai habité dans une rue numérotée comme ça (en plein village par contre, pas vraiment dans un hameau). Même dans le coin j'avais eu des profs qui faisaient les gros yeux quand je leur disais que j'habitais à un numéro à 3 chiffres. Genre "tu es sûr? parce que ça fait plus que la population du village, là..."

"If we can't get money from targeted far-right fake news anymore, we are going to pretend an achievement of basic social equality from a century ago is now a controversial opinion too"

Meta, probably.
