I want to say while the printer ink stuff has been true for the longest time, there are printers out there which allow you to refill liquids directly. Manufacturers are Brother, Canon, Epson and HP. I have one set of these bottles and I sawed the back off so I use them as a funnel to make the liquid go into the printer.

Yes, and if I cut a mango, how many billions of atoms is that? So I’d recommend to cut the mango in increments of one angstrom to minimise the chances of a chain reaction happening.

- Comment on U.S. consumers are so fucked up, that they put more than $1 billion on buy-now, pay later services during Cyber Monday 1 week ago:
Funnily enough, there is a case as to why the word consumer so often pops up, especially in capitalist context. The first documented case of consumer was in the Middle Ages, in a French dictionary. It derives its meaning from Consumare, Latin for “use” but in a destructive manner. For example, you’d consume a candle or an apple because you’ll use them and then they’re gone, they’re broken/destroyed. Being a consumer back then was a bad thing because people were so ridiculously poor and naturally could not waste. Now contrast that with the same French dictionary which defines customer as a person who routinely buys from the same merchant.
There’s a reason why this is being used so prevalently today. Customer implies agency, a process of thinking and making a choice, while a consumer just consumes. Let me give an example. “We need to check how the consumers will receive it.” it implies zero agency on the “consumers” part. Like feeding a toddler. But if I just say “We need to check how the customers will receive it”, it again implies agency that we have to do well to satisfy the needs of the customer and not just try feeding a toddler by using dirty tricks.

- Comment on Pedo planet 2 weeks ago:
I just want to say that our language use has now been so poisoned by a child predator being called “pedophiles” because “pedo” is greek for child that we attribute just the word to a child predator. IMO pedofile is a bad word because there is zero love involved, they are child predators.

- Comment on Казахстан угрожает нам бомбардировкой. 2 weeks ago:
The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who in the name of charity and goodwill shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
