I have got a question for all the #tech people out there with experience regarding #hp and #Linux

#Windows11 is being rolled out and I probably will have to set up my Laptop again. Never used #Linux on a PC, so how about:

Do #Linux distributions support HP omen 17 (2019) ?

If so, which one would you recommend for chiefly MS Office use (64-bit Excel a must) ?

How difficult is a set-up for a non-IT pro who has always worked with Windows (but installed systems)?

DO NOT BUY HP PRINTERS!

I don't believe I've ever seen a more from a .

If you buy an and sign up for the optional HP Plus , you'll get a that will FORCE you to only new HP cartridges — for the life of your printer. And once that firmware update happens, there is no way to undo it.

DO NOT BUY HP PRINTERS!

HP has found an exciting new way to your printer

screenshot from the article "Here are a few choice quotes from the terms and conditions for HP’s ink service that I think you’ll appreciate (bolding mine): "You expressly allow HP to remotely change, patch, update or otherwise modify Your printer’s software, firmware or programming remotely, without notice to You, in order to provide the Service to You or to comply with applicable laws "Remote monitoring may include provision to HP of one or more of: page counts, types of documents printed (e.g., Word, PowerPoint, pdf, jpeg, etc.), types of devices that initiated print jobs, printer serial number, cartridge information (e.g. HP original cartridge status, and whether the cartridge was new or used at the time of its last insertion into the printer), and other similar types of metrics related to your Service as may be added by HP from time to time "You agree to maintain connectivity of Your Printer to the Internet and to not remove or disable any remote monitoring software or functionality on Your Printer."
screenshot from the article "If Your printer is not connected to the Internet, then the Subscription Cartridges (as defined in section d. below) will be disabled, and You will not be able to use them to print; however, You will continue to be charged for the Service as described in Section 7 (“Paying for Your Service”). In order to reactivate disabled cartridges, You will need to reconnect Your printer to the Internet and keep it connected "When Your Service is cancelled for any reason, HP will remotely disable the Subscription Cartridges and You will no longer be able to print with the Subscription Cartridges. In such a case, you will need to purchase a regular HP cartridge compatible with your printer, in order to continue printing "HP may increase or otherwise change the Service Plan Fee and Overage Fee, and add additional fees, for any Service Plan, or otherwise change or add Service Plans at any time in HP’s sole discretion with prior notice to You."

Alptraum wird wahr: #HP macht Drucken zu einem monatlichen #Abonnement

https://www.pcwelt.de/article/2252546/hp-drucken-abonnement.html

> "HP führt den All-In-Tarif ein, bei dem bis zu 36 Dollar pro Monat für eine begrenzte Anzahl gedruckter Seiten berechnet werden. Sie müssen auch zahlen, wenn Sie nichts drucken."

Wir bauen heutzutage 3D Drucker selbst. Also werden wir 2D Drucker bauen müssen, wenn mehr auf den Zug von HP springen.

HP wants you to pay up to $36/month to rent a printer that it monitors... "One of the most perturbing aspects of the subscription plan is that it requires subscribers to keep their printers connected to the Internet.... HP enforces an Internet connection by having its TOS also state that HP may disrupt the service—and continue to charge you for it—if your printer is not online." #printer #enshittification #hp #subscription https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/02/hp-wants-you-to-pay-up-to-36-month-to-rent-a-printer-that-it-monitors/

Bastards. Was enrolled in the HP Instant Ink service, ended up not using any but paying for it. Now I've cancelled it, now my printer won't recognise my existing HP ink cartridges. #Con #HP #HPInstantInk

DDS was developed by and at the end of the 1980s, based on the DAT format. It was primarily used for backup storage.

The DG90P pictured here is a DDS-1 tape that can store 1.3GB (up to 2GB compressed). In 1990, the usual hard drive capacity in a personal computer was less than 100 MB.

I'm pretty pleased when I get more than a day's charge out of my modern phone, but with two #IKEA #LADDA-branded #eneloop Pro AAs, I got four days shy of six months' light use out of my #HP #200LX #DOS #palmtop! Going back to regular eneloops for the next round, but I'm pretty impressed with this performance! 🔋✨

We never agreed to only buy HP ink, say printer owners

https://www.theregister.com/2024/04/11/hp_inc_ink_filing/?td=keepreading

After the Mike Lynch debacle when the jury decided that the US judicial system should not be used to cover the arses of incompetent HP execs we have this…

I suspect that HP is a sell for any investor paying attention.

So I bought an old on ebay for the grand price of fifty quid.

In case you are in any way interested it's a 'HP DL320 G3' with 1U size.

I'm not sure it's truly , do let me know.

When it arrives I guess I'll know how old it actually is, and I'd love to know what it cost new if there are any fans out there.

Plan to pop on it and see if it can be of use, the start of my very own .

💼💻 Many people would have loved to own an HP 200LX in 1994. It's powered by a 186 processor running MS-DOS 5.0, with 2 MB of available RAM, and offers plenty of I/O ports and expansion possibilities.

Tiesitkö, että voit saada haittaohjelman koneellesi hankkimalla halpaa kloonimustetta tulostimeesi? Tai näin ainakin jos uskomme HP:tä. He eivät tässä ole itseasiassa täysin väärässä, mutta tässä tarinassa he ovat silti konnia. Puhutaan tulostinmusteesta ja siitä miten vinoutunut liiketoimintamalli on luonut valtavan tietoturva-aukon.

"#HP CEO Says They Brick #Printers That Use Third-Party Ink Because of … Hackers
The company says it wants to protect you from “viruses.” Experts are skeptical."

Experts aren't the only ones. HP is trash. #PlannedObsolescence is trash. #SurveillanceCapitalism is trash.

@mirai needs your help! She is trying to get a HP ProLiant 360e Gen8 to recognise two 600GB HDDs plugged in through the RAID controller with RAID0 enabled. Both drives show up in the setup, but are not shown in a Live boot environment.
I suggested that the driver for the RAID controller is missing in the Live OS, but haven't found a driver for it either (yet)/HP locks them behind a paywall :neocat_angry:

Any ideas?
