what the hell?????? howd my reply turn out that way?

In general, printers. But mine at home strangely never had a single issue.

HP Deskjet 6122, now 10 years old, never had a single issue with it. I can still find ink cartridges, print quality is great and automatic double-sided printing is epic. I must be one of the five HP Inkjet printer owners who never had any issues :p But hey, it was expensive enough at the time, around ?200.

At school however we had some boxy HP laser printers that were always jammin'. God I hated those things.

i think my scrolling addon leaked all over the place. i told it to make it to the toilet... it only had 5 feet to go!!!

and my mom bought a new printer 2 months ago... she hasn't even taken it out of the box yet LOL

Printers + Linux = FAIL

Oh man, yes. Back in the day, when I tried to get my old Lexmark printer to work with CUPS. Brings back painful memories, I think I repressed that for a very good reason.

I'm confused, that looks like a very simple rotary (roundabout)

Yes however, this leads into a big Hospital and Heart hospital... So lots of Ambulance action going through there... Not to mention there is traffic coming in one side doing 55mph meeting traffic doing 25 (hospital zone) with only a yeild sign at each....

At least with the round about before- there were stop signs.

Guess you don't print a lot(read: any) photos.

And neither is evil, buy a quality HP or Epson printer and set it up right and they just work. And traffic lights beat not having them, though roundabouts are preferable.

Actually roundabout are the worst solution for handling traffic (civil engineer)

Thanks for the data gonna look ot up on inrix when I'm home! That's not good!

Last year at that intersection there were 212 accidents. The 55 mph traffic merge into traffic that is doing 25mph and factor in Ambulance traffic as well. Putting this kind of intersection close to two hospitals is trouble.

Printers are the pure evil I tell you.

Definitely hellspawn.

So yeah, my vote is printers. Obviously.

Traffic lights are innocent, they just tell you the unfortunate truth that your city/state ordered the wrong people to code their logic and/or that you didn't step on it good enough to catch the green lights. :beer:

    • Snap Inc. launches new SPECS augmented reality glasses (for 'just' $2,195) by Aditya Tiwari Image: Snap Inc. Smartglasses powered by augmented reality are the latest fashion because the smartphone market is slowly reaching saturation. Snap Inc. announced its latest AR-powered smartglasses, called SPECS, that aim to strike a middle ground between underpowered AI glasses and heavy headsets you can't wear all the time. Available in two sizes, Snap SPECS are made from high-performance Swiss TR90 polymer and feature removable inserts to support prescription lenses. Its 47mm model weighs about 132g; the bigger 52mm model weighs 136g. Snap Inc has been spreading the word about the new glasses for a while now. Earlier this year, it even spun off its smart glasses team into a subsidiary called Specs Inc. Its proprietary LCOS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon) display delivers a 51-degree field of view and 16 million colors. Snap says the device gives the feel of a 24-inch desktop monitor when you're working, and of a 115-inch home cinema screen placed about 10 feet away when watching a movie. A pair of custom stereo speakers and 6x high-SNR MEMS microphones are built into the temples of the smartglasses to deliver open-ear audio while you cast a screen, stream content, open a whiteboard, or collaborate with others. Snap Inc. patted itself on the back, saying the smartglasses don't need tethering or a puck to connect to a computer. Under the hood, SPECS draw its power from two Snapdragon processors: one for computer vision and another for running Lenses. The device supports fast hand tracking, low latency, and responsive interactions that help digital content feel anchored in the real world, according to the company, which claims that SPECS can "deliver 7-millisecond motion-to-photon latency." The smartglasses offer up to four hours of battery life on a single charge while providing AI assistance, Bluetooth notifications, Lenses, audio/video playback, and more. The battery life could jump to 20 hours of mixed use when the charging case is included. Image: Snap Inc. You can view and interact with AR Lenses anchored directly to the physical world around you, and an on-board AI assistant uses the camera to see what's around to answer questions or provide real-time help with tasks. Snap Inc. noted that it filed more than 7,000 patents during the development of SPECS. It's trying to build the required digital ecosystem around the smartglasses, and said that developers have already published hundreds of Lenses for SPECS. Moreover, their electrochromic lenses use the same technology available in Boeing 787 Dreamliner windows, enabling them to shift from clear to tinted in just 10 seconds when you walk out of your house. Snap SPECS are now available for pre-order on the official website with a $2,195 price tag ($200 refundable deposit). The smartglasses are expected to ship in the US, UK, and France during the Fall this year.
    • Sound Booster 1.13 Build 575 by Razvan Serea Increase volume on your laptop. Boost the volume of even very quiet speakers. Raise volume above maximum. Letasoft Sound Booster can be used as an extra amplifier when the volume of the program you are listening to is too low for comfortable listening and you feel that your PC’s speakers can produce a louder sound. This can be the case when the audio or video has been recorded at the level below normal. Or, for example, when the other person’s microphone you are talking to on Skype, is not working properly. There can be a plenty of other reasons why the sound is being too quiet and there is not much you can do about it except buy external speakers. Sound of any application that is being played in the system can be amplified up to 500%. Letasoft Sound Booster can raise volume of programs like web browsers, on-line communication software (Teams, Discord, Zoom), any kind of media player or games. Simply put, volume of virtually any program that can play any sound in PC, can be boosted to a comfortable level with Letasoft Sound Booster. You can control current volume with the pop-up slider from the system tray. Alternatively, you can assign system-wide hot keys for increasing and decreasing, and use them when you need to adjust volume Letasoft Sound Booster constantly monitors current gain level and prevents samples from clipping, thus reducing all major sound distortions.

    • I own these and the normal QuietComfort ones from Bose. The QC are amazing and I want to love these, but for the life of me, I have a terrible time getting them attached to my ears.
    • Thanks for the tip. I am giving it a try. Initial quick impression: I like it.
    • Welcome to Neowin. Enjoy your time here!
