There used (1970s maybe) to be a brand called Camp in the UK which I think was a blend of coffee and chicory as a liquid that you added hot water to. Awful stuff as I remember it. It may still be sold there for all I know.

Thanks. I have hplip installed on my Pi (version 3.21.2) and my printer is listed as being supported on the hplip support page. That page says Support Level is "Full" and Connectivity is "USB, Network". So it seems that this should work; also the printer works fine over USB to my Windows laptops.
hplip seems to provide a number of command line commands with names like hp-probe and hp-firmware. I have not been able to get any of them to work over USB though; usually they return a message "Warning: No devices found on the 'usb' bus".
Do you mean that "proprietary firmware" is needed to make the printer work with Linux?

Good work. I tried to do similarly with a HP CP1025nw (roughly 10 years old), which has become unreliable with Windows 11. But although I connected the printer to the Pi (I used a model 3B) with a USB cable, CUPS does not appear to see the "usb://....." connection string. CUPS does allow me to connect to the printer wirelessly, with a connection string that begins "dnssd://....".
So I have it working wirelessly but I was hoping to get it using USB since I suspect that would be more reliable.
I'm wondering why your Pi allows the "usb://....." method, but mine does not.

This may be a ploy for Trump to avoid the debates, since he knows he's likely to lose as in 2020. Biden refuses the drug test, Trump then refuses to debate....

I find that there is far too much of it in my Lemmy feed. I have a very long list of blocked communities which I have blocked, tediously, one at a time as they appeared. Obviously a lot of people like it, but it’s not for me.
I wish there was a setting similar to the one that blocks NSFW content, but for anime and manga.

This Slashdot post about ghost jobs won't help you find a job but it may shed some light on a current problem. I'm in the US now but my son is looking and running into this phenomenon. I imagine it happens with the job posting sites in Ireland too.

I think we have to acknowledge that even though there have been some close games, the quality of rugby in this year’s 6 Nations is poor compared to recent years. The Scotland-England game today seemed mostly made up of hoisting high kicks in hopes of creating an error rather than anything creative. This is taking nothing away from van der Merwe’s individual contribution. Even Ireland who were obviously better than Wales struggled for nearly 30 minutes after half time. We need better rugby!

That was France’s worst home loss of the 6 Nations era in terms of points difference (21 vs previous 10 to Wales in 2013). I’ve watched Ireland play France dozens of times and never seen Ireland dominate physically like that.

YouTube has been blocking me for a couple of months now, with one or two short breaks. I have Firefox and uBlock Origin. Even after I whitelisted YouTube, the blocking continues.

MLR looks to be all over the place. In the past couple of weeks they’re lost teams in NY and Toronto, now adding one in a location that by the sound of it does not have money in hand to get a facility to play in. I hope I’m wrong but this doesn’t sound very viable

Stupid bit of code but to call it RACISM is a bit much

…aaaand it didn’t work. Not to say that they lost the game because of this, but they didn’t seem to get any of the advantages expected from it. A couple of big scrums was about the height of it. It turns out that you can’t win a top level test match without a goal kicker, no matter what tricks you pull.

“30 million rugby fans” in the US? I don’t believe it.

The rest of the tournament all seems a bit flat compared to that. Completely absorbing for 80 minutes. Pure mental strength was the winning of it for Ireland.
South Africa have selected a replacements bench with only one back for one of the biggest games of the World Cup so far. It will get all the media attention this week but it’s a highly risky one in case they suffer an injury in their backline.

Good to see those corners gone, they contributed nothing to the racing. In 2013 I had a ticket for the grandstand there and only used it for 20 minutes of FP1: you got to see each car for about 6 seconds, absolutely useless. I happily gave up the seat and just watched the rest of the weekend from various standpoints around other parts of the track.

The thing I remember is the thrill of realizing how.much.stuff. was out there (even though by current standards it was tiny). There was a repository hosted by WUSTL.EDU that had a ton of software source code, binaries and other stuff; you could submit requests to it by e-mail and back would come your files uuencoded, split across multiple e-mail messages. You had to cobble the pieces back together before you could decode it.
Hey everyone, a few pictures of cars always help to get a community going. This is my 2014 Cayman S, on Glendora Mountain Rd north of Los Angeles. Post yours!
Enjoying the full sherry cask on this one. I had a bottle of the 15 year a while back but this seems just as good, for less money
