I do amateur radio including doing similar to that and don't have an issue. Methinks you need to update your knowledge.

Somehow I think you're bullshitting....

Bullshit Broadcom wifi anyone?

The thing is that when you look at recommended settings from TV calibrators like Vincent Teoh of HDTVTest the first thing they tell you to do is turn off all the image processing features in order to get a picture more in line with the director's true intent so all that image processing doesn't matter anyway.

I thought Slashdot was supposed to be about news for nerds, to do with technology not politics.

Yes it's slow, painful death. 2025...the year that the greed of a handful of tech bros started the end of the internet.

There's nothing in the NATO rule book that allows Article 5 to be triggered for an invasion by another NATO member because it wasn't ever contemplated that this would be a scenario that would ever happen.

You don't have freedom in the USA. You have the highest number of people in prison both per capita and absolute numbers. You constantly live in fear of other Americans with guns. Your kids have to learn drills to deal with mass shooters. Then there's a whole raft of "won't someone think of the chiilllldruuun" censorship laws that the US brought in long before any other nation....

People that see several hundred dollars a month car payments and buying shit you can't afford using other peoples money as normal isn't just limited to one party.

Yeah you don't use a networked MFD. Getting scanners to even be seen on a networked MFD is a proper nightmare in Linux.

My printer "just works" Windows and MacOS. Interestingly I actually had to point CUPS to it on Linux but then again I use Arch.

And in that one sentence we're able to work out that what you know about computers can be written on the back of a postage stamp with room to spare.

You should hire someone with some actual knowledge if you can't get them to work. The vast majority of older stuff that's unsupported today have PCL4 or PCL6 compatibility so can be just installed as a generic PCL printer. No need to thank me.

Yours sincerely, a Gen X'er who has clearly been in IT longer than you've been alive.

ROFLMAO. The irony of this comment give that every operating systems you use today, the WWW, the biggest websites you use today were all created by people who are now middle age. They're also the majority age bracket of those coming out with new stuff. I'm in my 50s. My entire generation in the UK in the 80s were taught mandatory computer studies at school which covered programming and computer architecture. I went to university as a mature student to do an electronics engineering degree a decade ago. In our first CS class the lecturer asked everyone who had ever written a program to hold their hands up. Just three of us did, all mature students all of us over 40. They then asked for anyone who'd ever created a webpage to hold their hand up. The same three hands were the only ones raised in the room.
