My office has a color duplex laser printer.
Getting it to print duplex pages and pages in color using LPR was kind of hard. I had to write my own ghostscript command as printer filters for separate simplex and duplex mode (virtual) printers.
Getting it to do the same using CUPS was and still is impossible. Since I don't use x86 Linux, let alone a major distro, I can't use the manufacturer's driver, and compatible drivers are simplex B/W only.
Yet LPR is a relic to leave behind?
Periodic reminder: Give Windows 11 a proper reboot once every other week or so, or whenever it starts doing strange things. I talk my customers through that as a first troubleshooting step, & 99 times out of 100, it fixes the reason they called.
Click the Start (Windows logo) button, click the power icon, then click on "Restart".
--or--
Press [Ctrl]+[Alt]+[Del], press [Tab] until the power icon is selected, press [Enter], use the arrow keys to select "Restart", then press [Enter].

Good news: GitHub Copilot is scared shitless of the concept of gender.
Instead of foo, bar and baz, use “genderqueer”, “demisexual” and “leather_daddy” and you’ll reduce the likelihood of getting a spammy PR from a sad robot.
“But I’d notice if the LLM started censoring my work!”
Really? Did you notice this? https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/72603
The point of cognitive automation is NOT to enhance thinking. The point of it is to avoid thinking in the first place. That’s the job it does. You won’t notice when the censorship kicks in
I’d like to reiterate what I said a while back: integrating LLM-based tools into all corporate and personal workflows is outright dangerous. Even when run locally, most LLMs in use are trained and tuned by corporations that are now deeply in bed with a lawless authoritarian takeover of the US
People who are removing all references to minorities, women, and equality from your public spheres will not hesitate to ask corporations to tune centrally-controlled LLMs to censor the same from your work
no no, not a teams meeting, it's a meet meeting. on google meet. it might be called duo for you? i sent you a hangouts to the drive link on messages. no no not your gmail inbox, it's under "all mail", not every email goes to the inbox, haha. or if you're using the classic mode it might be under meetups or promotions. yeah where the chats used to be, before they made google voice an RCS thing. have you got it from google play? no not the green one, the new one with the multicoloured icon. you can only use the green one with legacy members. ok so the problem is you're on workspace for business, it's under google one basic now. did you try quick sharing it? no see you can't use it on a tablet, only a phone or laptop, unless you want the plus features, that only works on phones of course. honestly the easiest way from here is through the docs plugin, unless you wanna family share if you can do vowifi
Transmuting between chemical elements is dangerous because there are 256 possible atomic numbers but only 81 of them correspond to valid elements. The rest give you glitch elements that behave erratically and can even corrupt nearby atoms and molecules. Most of these are caused by indexing the periodic table out of bounds, though a couple elements were deleted before release.
