Nothing is impossible when you're in Africa and you are actually getting paid 😅

Yes, good point! trust is the thing one cannot afford when dealing with hardware (or software for that matter) nowadays 😅
Don't worry, Apple isn't much better in this regard — typing this on a 2011 MBP with fried AMD GPU: Apple had been refusing to admit this problem for four years (!) before starting this replacement program: https://9to5mac.com/2015/02/19/macbook-pro-repair/
My unit kept working fine and died in about a couple of months after the replacement program was over 🤦

Do I strike you as an avid fan of the genre? 🤭
Alex van Warmerdam's or Michael Haneke's movies is probably the kind of stuff I usually watch — really fucked up shit!
This one? I remember downloading it with a dozen of others that had just got released and had I read the synopsis before pressing "play", I might've even deleted it 😂
That's what surprised me about it — it's nice without being trivial, give it a chance!

@deadheat
He-he, I'm not sure about this newer thing and it's not that prominent in the video, but original LQ-100 is QUITE loud!
I can't hear the music I listen to at medium volume from the outside due to ambient noise at daytime, but I can hear the printer quite well. I think one of my neighbours got themselves one of these beasts as I can hear this noise from time to time and it's hard to mistake it for something else 😅

Wasn't that problem supposed to affect only a limited subset of desktop "performance" chips? 🤔
I'm not sure what they put into mini-PCs nowadays but they used to come with same CPUs they've been using in laptops.

I remember it being surprisingly not off-putting, while being rather lighthearted. The first 10 minutes of it look like a movie that I would drop and never look back, but I enjoyed it very much😁

@Hyolobrika
Wow, it even supports the Android phone I have!
Unfortunately only a 12.1-based ROM. Right now I have an AOSP 12.1-based ArrowOS on it, without PlaySevices and most Google stuff anyway. And as it also has Sailfish and Ubuntu Touch, I won't be able to use it with locked bootloader, not that I'm interested in that aspect of security anyway.
So for me it's probably not worth it, but looks interesting nonetheless!

Some people appear to be more insane than I ever anticipated 😳

Also I didn't know that more or less modern models of dot-matrix printers exist, this one has USB even! My LQ-100 only supports parallel port connection, but I have a print server for it so it's not a problem.

Took me more than an hour to realise that the result does not meet the request… like AT ALL 🤣

@contrinitiator @metallcorn
Оно есть в репозитории IzzyOnDroid, а не в основном. Может какие-то не совсем free/libre зависимости есть? 🤔

@trib @josh@bne.social @stevenimpson
Also, GrapheneOS works exclusively on devices produced by a company the whole business model of which is "tracking your location, habits and usage to build detailed profiles on you", so even if you are willing to invest time into not partaking in all that personally, you are still supporting it with your money.

I cast Epson LQ-100 dot matrix printer on all of you 🪄
Good luck getting any sleep with this thing working in the next room 😈

OMG, I do not have to update this dependency every other week and have never had to adopt changes to its interfaces that have changed its names just for the renaming's sake — there must be something wrong with it! 😤
