I hate that everything now is a subscription service instead of buying it and do whatever you want.

    I just read an article the other day that said LG is about to start charging subscription fees for washing machines 🙄

    I will go old school and start washing my clothes against a rock in the river before I’ll pay a fucking subscription to use my own washing machine

    ++ for brother. Still running my mfc j470 ink jet purchased in 2013. I purchased it because of their support of Linux and Android. I’ve NEVER used official ink cartridges besides what came with it. it’s printed 6900 pages

    Other than the recent nonsense, this is why I cancelled Netflix and went back to pirating. Content leaves unexpectedly? Not on my Nas.

      I love the fact that brother basically does no marketing as far as I know. They just end up shining like a diamond because they make a generally good product and everyone else around them makes absolute trash.
