Kinda annoyed with Ars for perpetuating this trend of dramatized security vulnerability names and descriptions.
Solid nuggets of advice in there
Unfortunately, yes, “Git gud” is the answer because the LLM isn’t going to cook the food for you.
God help you if it ever attempts to do so.
If you’re going to print with any infrequency get a laser printer as well. The stability of toner is the huge selling point for me. I wasted so much time on “cartridge cleaning” print cycles every time I went to print when I had an inkjet because I print so infrequently my ink cartridges would dry out (and I’m sure HP considered that a feature not a bug).
It would probably be more appropriate to compare a brother inkjet… But yeah.
FWIW if you’re reading this and you’re sick of wasting tons of money on ink because you just print a handful of documents in black and white every year … Get a Brother TONER-based printer. I bought mine almost 5 years ago and I’ve yet to have to change the toner or waste a single page on a bad print. When I need to print it just works, no “clean the cartridges” nonsense.
Toner is just a better printing technology, both for high and low volumes of printing. The only people that win out on inkjet are maybe the rare folks that print like a handful of things every single week.
Yes, they did give that exact example just with the opposite political framing.
Yeah I’m with you. Just reinforcing the cockpit doors is enough to take care of the majority of the problem.

As someone that was 6 when 9-11 happened, I think this country majorly overreacted and made the state itself one step closer to an authoritarian nightmare.
Is that a callback?
Well that’s certainly an encouraging thumbnail…
As one of those old modders … It was “blood sweat and tears” mixed with community organization that allowed Minecraft modding to shine. Later aided by Mojang’s help and refactoring.
We were always paying, the price just wasn’t obvious
