I'll keep saying this as long as HP keeps treating customers like it owns them:

DO NOT buy anything from HP.

Latest: https://www.theverge.com/2023/5/25/23736811/hp-plus-printer-ink-drm-firmware-update-cant-cancel

HP has found an exciting new way to DRM your printer!

HP’s latest inkjet scheme is hiding in plain sight. If you accept the free ink, HP will own your printer for life.

Via Steven Rattner:

Kevin #McCarthy has said he wants to "lock in" and extend the 2017 Trump tax cuts, which are set to expire in 2025.

Extending those cuts would add a cumulative *$3.5 trillion* to the deficit through 2033, per new @USCBO estimates.

So much for fiscal responsibility

Via Scott MacFarlane:

Tarrio was NOT at Capitol on Jan 6

A conviction on charge of seditious conspiracy is a huge win for Justice Dept. 👉🏼👉🏼And a potential piece of enormous leverage for any future defendant who wasn’t at Capitol on Jan 6 … but is considered part of the conspiracy👈🏼👈🏼

Why judge Clarence Thomas's benefactor by his Hitler napkins when we can judge him for his political activities ... AND his Hitler napkins?

@davidstirrup so wrong . This war does favor the degradation of the Russian military and creating a western inclined Ukraine. Russia invaded Ukraine is the only truth that needs to be written.
