Slaps his forehead, "Doh, forgot you can do such a thing, thanks."

Don't really know, hit something about it elsewhere, but it didn't say anything more than that, but yeah, that seems to be the gist of things.

I think the reason is because apparently a lot of people are unhappy with a deal Nix inked apparently with a company that does business with the US' Immigrations and Customs

Wonder how long before they add the Maverick to that list because IIRC it uses the same chassis and motors

It was around $60 for a full set of ink (colour and black and white) when we grabbed some a month or so ago, so about average I think. When you think about printers, what brands do people talk about? HP, Brother and Epson, right? Canon I think isn't really trying hard here, printers are just an offshoot of their camera business, do they make much else that isn't cameras or camera related?

I've got a Canon TS642A that's serving us well here. My Brother was giving me problems, mostly in wireless connectivity so we replaced it with this, which was I think the second cheapest Canon we could find, and we've only replaced the cartridges I think once in the last year, though we don't use it all that much. On Linux, I don't think it even needs drivers, its... Postscript I think? Setting up the wireless was a bit tricky, but once up and running, it's been rock solid.

Except that Amazon doesn't own the vans. Seriously, the entire thing is carefully sculpted BS, the drivers work for a company that works for Amazon, a company for whom Amazon is nice enough to set up with vans, computers, scanners, and everything else they need, long as they keep Amazon happy, but at any time for any reason Amazon can pull the rug out from under them. For the record, I'm a Flex driver, IE contract Amazon driver, which is why I know how the other side of the deliveries work.

I always loved when Picard broke out the polite British fuck you, remember when he was dealing with the Shelliac<sp?>?

[–] MrPhibb@reddthat.com 4 points 1 year ago

True, but even if such tests double the price, it's still cheaper than anything else offered, what's the lowest right now, $29K?

It particularly sucks for desktop use on phones that support it, no right click, no keyboard short cuts, and it clips a bit off the bottom of pages, and they've apparently said they have no plans to support desktop on Android.

No need for an Apple keyboard unless you're looking for extra function keys, a regular keyboard will work fine, and if'n for some reason you need the Mac layout, it's available, I've always used the English (Macintosh) layout so I can get easy access to keys I like to use or sometimes need.

Gotta say, I just assumed electric cars had an OBD II system just like any other car
