Shhh take your sensible nonsense somewhere else, we want outrage and shitting on everything here

But the people in South Dildo, N.L. know exactly why it is named the way it is 😏
(Yes that one is real too, and as you'd guess it's south of Dildo)

Dethklok seems pretty safe.

There isn't all that much out there about Brendon Small though and what I could find he should be a decent enough person....plus I liked Metalocalypse quite a bit, so that helps me 😁

Dunno much about Bryan Beller, Nili Brosh or Gene Hoglan, just saw a few random videos with them so hard to gauge.

If you used a script and it worked first time, and you haven't already checked that the script didn't toggle itself off, I'd start with that. Always had that thing happen to me with a custom script I added to VLC and had to remember to toggle it each time I started VLC

FWIW we have dumb business owners to thank for that.

They've been doing this with the Indigo's for 8+ years that I'm aware of, so probably much longer.
And ofc businesses fell for it because just like most cloud shit, nobody can be bothered to calculate actual costs, just fudge stuff and get your bonus/pay rise for pretending to have done something beneficial.

Oh, I'm not denying that they are greedy assholes. But at the same time I feel like we're in that comic, they saw an terrible opportunity, implemented this shit and were like "no way anyone is going to fall for that", and "we" allowed them to like "we" seem to do with many other terrible things in this world, and here we are with them laughing away at "our" stupidity.

There seem to be just enough dumb people around to enable assholes like this to exist, which I find sad and disturbing.
It's almost like there is a reason certain groups want people to stay dumb and ban books, ban those who are different from learning etc

Couple of other things about the print stuff; I seriously doubt this even needs to profitable for them in the short term (it likely is), so unless it's dead on arrival, the longer it keeps going, the more chances this will be the only available solution....perhaps a last ditch effort to milk us dry before printing dies?

And for anyone who comes across this in the future, at best you're paying 10x per page compared to what medium size business did many years ago, and no you're not even getting a real service.
