So I can keep it in a central location since there's no ~~food~~ place for it in the office, and print being able to quickly print something from my phone is convenient (like a 4x6 photo from my phone to give to a visiting family member on the spot).

FWIW you can always disable wifi if you don't need it.

So never update my firmware then, got it.

I couldn't afford a Brother, but my Canon MG3620 works phenomenally with 3rd party ink. Another thing I like is that the software is delightfully stuck in the 90s. Simple and straightforward cause it literally hasn't changed since I was a kid. Yet you still get modern features like wireless and mobile printing, as well as borderless options. Everything I need a printer/scanner combo to do, and nothing more.

Don't know the exact term but I work at a "last mile" warehouse, basically the place where already packaged items go to be sorted and put onto trucks for delivery. It's a smaller warehouse but it is a warehouse. All I do is sort packages.

And yeah I'm confused too. I avoided getting a job there for years because of all the horror stories. But my experience has been quite the opposite. Even the notorious "suicide booths" aren't what the news makes them out to be. They're literally just a phone booth.

IDK maybe my warehouse is just different. I have no idea.

Well they sure act like it gets them high, especially when people say that they literally cannot function without caffeine. Sure sounds like drug addiction to me.

I'll never understand caffeine addicts. It's such a boring drug to get hooked on. How do people find it pleasurable? It does nothing but slightly increase your concentration at most. You don't even get a dopamine hit.

One of the only positive things about working at Amazon is they they're actually competent enough to hire enough employees to cover unexpected life events. No joke, they hand out over an hour of personal time every single day, enough to take an entire day off after barely working a couple of weeks.

I've been sleeping in nearly every single shift for a year straight, coming in late constantly, and management literally couldn't give a single fuck. They even let you come back from breaks late and no one says a damn thing. I once stretched out a 15 minute break to 45 minutes, and nothing came of it. So long as your work gets done on time it's no problem. They even fired the one manager who would actually do things by the book and get after employees. I couldn't believe it when it happened; it's almost too unbelievable to be true.

The best part is that you don't even have to call in; taking time off is done with an app and it always gets approved instantly. If the pay wasn't shit (only $19.50hr), I'd never want to leave.

Can you change DNS servers on an iPhone? Cause if so, dns.adguard-dns.com will block ads systemwide.

If you want a Chromecast, why not just buy a TV that runs on Google TV (Android) instead?

So you showed up just to make an off-topic comment.

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

I miss Metacafe and Big-Boys/Break.com. You know, from the days when YouTube actually had competition.

Sorry I should have worded my comment better. What I meant was that New Girl and Brooklyn 99 are among the worst shows on television, not that they are the worst shows on television.

Thanks for pointing out my mistake.

Why? For doing a good thing?

$20 says you're one of those grocery store customers that has to have everything put into a paper bag, and then double-bagged in plastic. Customers like that made me quit retail. We were constantly running out of bags because of customers like that.

Quit being lazy and just bring your own bags.
