awk is pretty damn solid. When I was completely rewriting the gravity.sh script from Pi-hole about six years back, it was easily the fastest for parsing and uniquely sorting content from files with a couple million lines. It made things much more usable on Raspberry Pi Zero hardware, since changing to another language like Python was out of the question.

My only complaint about BCU is that its portable edition isn’t a single standalone EXE. Makes it a nuisance compared to HiBit Uninstaller.

As someone who runs a popular blocklist collection, I’ve come to find that most of the MASSIVE lists are people who collate a whole bunch of lists together and then promote their “one size fits all” solution alongside their donation link. There are very few original high quality ad-blocking lists maintained (where originality is defined as a sizeable amount of unique entries not shared by other lists) and almost all don’t appear to openly discuss the magic sauce behind their lists, outside of the obvious case of user submissions.

The article does it right: test@test.com and other similar things (e.g: a@a.com) will throw an error the first time you put in a password and it’ll proceed to create an offline account.

The people that go through the steps like commands and disabling internet are making too much work for themselves.

X shortlinks are embedded in posts, and have a sleep timer before they redirect.

More or less, anyway.

From a repair standpoint, Brother are definitely the best option (that I know of). I do authorised repair work for them, and their support guides, technical support team and range of spare parts is absolutely amazing. The biggest problem I see is aftermarket toner wrinkling up the fuser of laser models, but that’s not like it’s something Brother’s introduced to be anti-competitive slime bags.

I’ve got a second-hand HL-5370DW (from 2009~) that’s been through the wringer of a medical practice - I still use it to print without any issue, despite the Web UI insisting that all the non-toner consumables need to be replaced immediately.

100% Imagus, I can pick that spinning ball of doom from out of a lineup anytime.

ASUS still ironing out the wrinkles 20 years later…
