Get an old Canon. Printhead on the cartridge, can get new printhead for $5

>>107802384
Yeah but canon units are all with exposed paper storage tray, not suitable for my workshop.

Printer manufacturers are hilariously evil. Were it not for piracy, game devs would have gone the same route long ago. You can't afford to be naive about anything in this world anymore.

>>107802213
Buy a printer with refillable tanks not cartridges.

my money is that a print cartridge's microchip contains a cryptographic lock
to alter the memory on the cartridge, you probably have to know how to ask it for a challenge, it then proceeds to give you a prng bit stream, then you have to sha hash the stream with a key and send it back within a certain amount of time to unlock the chip.
that's how some faulty chickshit "smart" batteries were set up that i had bought and had failed, which resulted in an fatal error bit being set. of course, the key was well known, so i tried to hack the battery to rebuild it before i gave up because i was wasting too much time fucking around with it. printer manufacturers are probably more creative about their keys.

I don't understand what checkout does. How is this any different from git branch?

Non tech fag I just use git for my personal projects

>>107802573
checkout changes the working directory to match whatever's in a specific commit, not just the commit pointed to by a branch name.

>>107802573
git branch creates the branch
git checkout -b creates the branch and switches to it
git checkout switches to an existing branch

honestly git checkout -b is usually what you want, i never use git branch

How do you keep your base and userland separate?

immutable distro + flatpak + distrobox

>>107802456
By not being a retard. You only need a set of around 10 external software or so.

Flatpaks are not actually safe but they are easy for the retards. Microsoft Defender was created for this type of users by the way.

>>107802609
Forgot to add: flatpaks are also the only way for some distros unless you want to compile a web browser from scratch.
In this sense it's okay but shouldn't be the first choice by default. Was always amazed by the contrast of how Arch is getting touted so much but then again some essential software is only available via flatpaks or aur...
Unix has its own security and if that's not enough it is a failed system in the end.

Maybe if you were young and it just seemed more enjoyable for other reasons.

I found an old SD card that I got for my first digital camera. Here it is beside a card that has 512 times the capacity.

It's crazy how far tech has progressed in a few decades.

>>107802550
I think it's more of a situation where it used to be easier to follow the foundational movements, where now days it's all obfuscated behind corporate designed ecosystems.
Or at least I found that was my issue. Been having a damn blast since I went to Arch and finally relive the feeling I had when I used MSDOS.

I recently figured out a way to make vim work more like ed/ex without going full Ex-Mode and losing the visual mode view with the syntax highlighting.

" Extended Ex-mode
command EEX set cursorline | set insertmode | autocmd InsertEnter * call feedkeys("\<C-o>:")
command Visual set nocursorline | set noinsertmode | autocmd! InsertEnter

All it does is it returns you to the command-line after each command.

It's a bit of a hacky solution since it uses insertmode, but it werks, plus insertmode delays the redraw so you still can see messages in the command-line area which is indispensable.

>>107801643
Not me. As attractive an idea as putting my whole environment into my editor is, Emacs is a terrible implementation. Elisp kind of sucks and the decades of cruft make actually configuring it a nightmare. Plus, there's the 10 million plugins that it comes with out of the box that are all already turned on with awful defaults, so it's not just a matter of building up your config to your liking (already a herculean task due to the reasons stated), but also tearing down the garbage config that it comes with all while fighting against the editor at every turn.

I'd rather deal with vim+terminal and not having everything perfectly integrated than spending 3-5 years in agony sorting out Emacs.

Yeah and at like 11KB/s...

You can also individually address individual ports and pins on a serial port in C using ioctl.h:

You mean without special software? Not sure how a parallel port works, but if there is a bunch of GPIOs in there then you could do any purely digital interface.

Anons, does taking Adderall for interviews actually help?
I can't seem to get a straight answer anywhere. You either get reddit moralfags saying you shouldn't do it, or completely anecdotal stories that either say it helped them ace the interview, or it caused them to completely bomb it.

No, what I mean is that it'll work fine, but depending on your computer use it could happen that you run out. May never happen, so no need to worry prematurely.
