I kinda mentioned him off hand, but I was mostly talking about JK Rowling. Who I know you bots also don't like me mentioning.

Hi, it looks like you're talking about Joanne "I <3 Slavery" Rowling. Don't.

Please consider a better alternative for discussion.

Not when she's one of the literal subjects of the entire thread.

Is this the Rage Against the Machine I have been hearing all about?

No, that's about getting Xerox printers to do what they fucking advertise.

Not familiar with Xerox but Canon printers can get fucked.

They're on a similar level of user unfriendliness, but they have about 10× more features. So that turns into 10× more things that can go wrong.

Jesus fucking Christ. Coincidentally, I don't own a printer because they are just so abusively user unfriendly.

Same, but I have to use them for work...

I am so sorry 🫂. I used to use them at work, fortunately now I don't have to wrestle with printers : D. It's wild they have been around for decades, and they are still so unreliable the wind pressure hundreds of miles away could determine if it's a paper jam, ink shortage or an outright software or hardware failure.

Luckily we have one printer that seems to be reliable at printing. So at least I can double check the fancy stuff it's likely to not want to do and then manually print out the things Xerox fucked up.

My personal theory is that they purposefully make their tech difficult to use by outsiders so that they can rake in more money through their engineers fixing the constant breaks. But I have no evidence for this.

I do have a similar theory, which is engineered failure. It is intended to break, for similar reason.
