Technically I have multiple TV’s only because I wanted multiple large high resolution screens for my computer. I don’t actually use them as TV’s.

Couldn’t find my drink when I was at work, found it…

Also ignore the spring pollen in the south it gets bad.

I actually use ai on a daily basis. Not LLM’s mind you, those tend to be garbage. But where ai actually shines is automating mundane tasks. I trained it on how I like to color grade my photos and videos, and now instead of spending hours, sometimes days, for bigger projects color grading, now it’s 30 minutes to an hour.

So yes the majority of the ai use cases will fizzle out, but it will stick around in areas where it automates workflows.

Relevant XKCD

You are correct that Canon and Brother tend to be the best straight forward printers. Brother is better for laser printing and Canon is better for ink jet printing. If you go ink jet go with individual cartridges instead of the combined cartridges it’s way less fuss.

If you can do laser the basic Brothers just work. We had one in our woodshop for almost a decade. Sawdust spray paint etc. and it just did not care. It didn’t end up dying even, we just swapped it for a color version, and we’re on year 4 with that one.
