Ugh, I keep getting an error when posting a reply so I just repeat the send.
Thank you for the warning.

I really don’t know what kind of answer I am expected to give, following yours.
Perhaps, I don’t care how americans think and how they treat individuals with different views in life is reasonable?
The fiation with fitting (forcing) individuals into labels, then attached to groups, to isolate people is hideous.
I do not care about the sexual orientation (or lack thereof) of an individual in order to engage with that person on a personal, social or professional setting.
I am dealing with a human being with the exact same aspirations I have and, as such, that person is worthy of respect by default.
If a single word is viewed as a taunt or whatever it may be by default, even if the person using it explains the reason for it, that alone states that any atempt of dialogue in stunted at the bud.
You had a bad experience. I respect that. I have not.
Unless we can force a certificate of origin from your local optician for the lenses and the frames, there is a good chance we are actually purchasing material made in PRC.
Regarding service, I’ve used glasses for so long I learned how to maintain, fit and fix minor damage to my glasses.
And regarding quality, even when I paid a lot more money, a pair of glasses would last for about a year, give or take a couple of months. I get the same time from a cheaper set of glasses. So, no gain in spending more.
In my understanding, sprouting from my native language, which is not english, “lifestyle” means how you navigate through life, as in how you dress, speak and act amongst people. It has no denigrating conotation.
Epson is running the market hard with their EcoTank printer. I’ve seen one litre bottles for less than €50.
If not, go for refurbished/refilled cartridges.
I still remember the fun of refilling old HP cartridges for a dime a dozen.

Buy from China.
I took the gamble because I had the money to spare and never looked back again.
The money I would pay for a set of glasses in my country goes easily over €300. With that amount, I can pay an ophthalmologist appointment, have my eyes checked by a doctor, properly, get the prescription, order two sets of glasses (one as a backup) and still have money to spare.
You’re right! And it states “I really don’t care about acquiring knowledge”.
How busy are you to go that lenght to supposedly save time?
How busy is your life that you can’t be bothered to actually study to learn?
It’s not really hard to be marginalized; you just need to be out of your environment.
I once dated a bissexual girl that was very active on the karaoke bar scene, which was a very live scene for the LGBT community then.
I felt very unwelcome at times, regardless I was dating that girl, regardless I made very clear I could not care any less a persons sexual orientation and personal style, as long as it makes the person happy. I was always, by default, “one of others”.
Today, I still go by that motto and I still feel some sting from people that are LGBT. I could not care any less about their lifestyle, as long as nobody tries to mess with mine.
So, first you need to learn how to set up the printer, then fetch the bot produced text, review (hopefully), load it to the printer, run a test to determine it every part is working, run the “print”, review it…
I’d risk doing it yourself would be quicker

I recently discovered I can use an angle grinder with a level of precision and finess most people take some time to develop.
From free hand cutting straight lines into pretty much anything that can be cut, to precise cut of stone, cement or even metal.
I was dead afraid of this particular power tool for all my life and only when forced to use one to do some repairs around the house I discovered I could handle it so easily.
How is that?
As it is, that same argument was used by Apple to try to dodge from complying with the demand for having an industry standard for data and charge port/cable - the USB-C.
Planned obsolescence is a thing. Having law put in place to curb it is a good thing.
If you know you can buy something and you know that something will be repairable at least for a decade, it passes confidence to the end user.
Competition is welcome. Innovation as well. Legislation like this just means companies need to share standards and cooperate more and not aim to skin the client in an endless cycle of replacing expensive items that get thrown out before they are worn out.
EU is expanding east nowadays. And not even the dutch are that good claming land from the sea.
Considering the serious move EU as made regarding right to repair and imposing that any equipment must be repairable and have parts for it for at least 10 years, this ia going to be another serious pain for this brand.
I’ve also read an article recently where it was reported that all cell phones circulating in the EU must have replaceable batteries. And from what I took from the article it was meant replaceable by the end user.
Serious anti obsolescence legislation.
This will hurt Apple again.
Agreed! I miss my Samsung CLP. That was a real battle horse!
Yet, the talk was about printer ink and it is really hard to beat the price for that much ink, for those machines.
Fun fact: I don’t even own one of those machines. I have a Canon. Still cheaper than HP cartridges but those assholes tie the entire machine operation to the cartridges.
