Keep in mind that the “primary source” for the entire Brother printer thing is a single unverified 3 year old Reddit post.

I have a Brother MFC L8900CDW (color laser) on the latest firmware, and just tested some 3rd party toner. It worked without complaint.

As a bonus, printing and scanning both also worked flawlessly in Linux, right out of the box, without any special drivers or futzing, if you care about such things.

His nose is very boopable!

That’s Mocha’s big brother Casper. There is a heating register under there that he likes to toast himself over.

True, but communication could still be a problem.

Generally this kind of probe will have a highly directional antenna that has pretty strict limits on it’s aim. We would have to be very lucky for the antenna to not get damaged during the fall and end up in a position where it can still establish a connection. Even if all the science is fine, it’s as good as useless if it can’t communicate any results or accept commands.

How would a secondary power source save it from being tipped over? That’s a mission ending failure no matter how many redundant power sources you have.

They still allow non right-wing content, which is clearly a bias that must be corrected.

Well played

I’m kind of surprised that Musk hasn’t proposed turning Selective Availability back on.

I’d argue that Elizabeth Holmes fits the bill as a female tech-bro.

Elizabeth Holmes?

He already covered 5 a few days ago with his “ruse”.

Rossman’s “source” was a 3 year old unconfirmed Reddit post.

I really wish you could set reminders like that to start beeping at you and not stop until they are acknowledged, possibly even getting louder the longer they go. One little chirp is not enough to get my attention.

Dear God. If you’re going to bother using AI to put your fantasies out there, at least take the time to give yourself some abs, not whatever (gags) that is.

Bonus shot!

Dude, just return those 40 cakes you stole already. We aren’t even mad; just hungry.

How am I supposed to know which part of the picture to look at without a big red arrow?

LLM based AI was a fun toy when it first broke. Everyone was curious and wanted to play with it, which made it seem super popular. Now that the novelty has worn off, most people are bored and unimpressed with it. The problem is that the tech bros invested so much money in it and they are unwilling to take the loss. They are trying to force it so that they can say they didn’t waste their money.

The duck can’t actually say anything because his sound drivers randomly stopped working.
