I like it, but it’s even worse than that as I’ve never had my printer murder motorcyclists or trap me inside and burn my body into dust.

Don’t worry. HP is working on this for their next firmware update.

Haha of course they are. Fucking HP.

Brb, buying every model of HP printer (gotta get a chance at going first, if you don’t shoot you can’t score)

“your HP subscription is about to expire, would you like to renew it? BTW, that’s a nice house you’ve got there, it would be a shame if something were to happened to it.”

That’s not from lack of desire, but ability.

Man, imagine a printer with arms. You’re not surviving the night.

I got a shotgun, though. I think I’ve got a chance.

In the early 2000s my hp printer had a paper jam and the error message from cups was “printer on fire!”

There was a bug in HP printers that let people remotely set them on fire.
Show threadSeductiveTortoise1d ago
No, see, we only call it a bug if it isn’t meant to be in the software. In this case, it’s a feature.

I’ve never had my printer murder motorcyclists

But I suspect it would if it could.
