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

Every time I think printers can't get any worse, they get worse.

What's next? are they going to have to scan your anus to confirm that it's actually you printing things? I shouldn't give them ideas.

By the way, I'm sure there's a way to get into the firmware of the printer to disconnect it from that centralized service.

[–] Shard@lemmy.world 31 points 1 year ago

Or get the brother printer while they're still good.

What’s next?

The firmware will ask for a tip every 10 pages.

I can picture it, if you don't want ads printed at the bottom of every page you have to subscribe.

Oh god, imagine your printer waking you up at 3 am as it spits out an ad for Arby's. But hey, ink at half price!

[–] CrowAirbrush@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I would think it plays an ad on the screen and you have to touch it to start so it knows you're there and doesn't print until the ad is finished.

If they could get away with it, they would have made paper that only works on their printer, and it would be more expensive than normal paper but you have to use it.

Why not just not allow it to connect to any internet and use wired printing?

Actually, someone already came up with the idea of anal fingerprinting, albeit in another context: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJklHwoYgBQ
