Oh yeah, but the thing that usually offsets the intrusive thoughts is a lot of courts treat this as the crime of "hurting rich people" which comes with like 30 years in pound you in the ass penitentiary.

Literally, I just heard from a particular place on the Internet ... and I shit you not...
A recession is better than whatever the other person had in store for us.
I swear, Trump could bend them over and shove shards of glass up their ass and they would just prefer that over whatever bad they imagined in their head.

I don't believe that Rubio has earned that distinction in the slightest, even in a derogatory manner. In fact, I am pretty sure that he has only ever once walked onto a used car lot and that resulted in only two things happening. One, learning that he ought not walk onto a used car lot. And two, the true value of a high mileage Jeep.
Remember when the FAA grounded him till he got this fix and then Musk told the FAA head to retire or be fired?
I think it's wild that "better times" is now when corruption wasn't so naked.
This one is a difficult 3rd party toner isn't all formulated the same. The main carrier, the thing that picks up the charge and moves the toner onto the paper is usually a blend of polyester and/or polypropylene. Various mixtures have different properties in the presence of a static electric charge.
The charge on the drum and exposure time to the laser are all parameters that are tuned in the firmware and it's likely Brother would tune those parameters to toner they've formulated. So getting sub performance from 3rd party toner can be a hit or miss, because some will have a batch of toner that hits the mark and then the exact same group could have a batch that pulls poorly on the toner. A lot of 3rd party toner is seat of your pants kind of operations with minimum QA process. But most people using 3rd party toner is fine with "good enough" quality.
So even using the same maker of toner isn't some golden seal of accuracy that you'll get the same formulation every time. Now bricking functions is concerning and that's something to keep an eye out for. I've got three different printers in the office, all Brother, all using 3rd party, none having bricking issues. But that's completely anecdotal. Likewise, I've only ever heard maybe one or two claims online by folks of bricking Brother printers.
Now don't get me wrong, I really enjoy Louis Rossman's videos. But that he's going off completely wiki data is suspect. Now as for 20Factorial, yes, that is Brother's standard line for bad color registration to ask for you to swap over to OEM toner. So for those not in the know print registration ..... well it helps to understand in a color laser printer, you usually have four toner tanks (Yellow, Cyan, Magenta, and Black). Now all those tanks are located in physically different places inside the printer and so there needs to be a way for the printer to understand those physical differences and ensure that the colors overlap each other perfectly to get the correct mix of colors to print what's being asked. That's what print registration is, sometimes that's called color print alignment.
Brother's MFC-3750 has an "automatic" process by which this is done where a chip passes along information to the printer on the properties of the mixture of toner within the tank. This is where you can run into an issue because the automatic information might be just a copy the 3rd party picked off a used tank and the data passed to the printer matches nothing in terms of the formulation the 3rd party put inside the tank. And a newer firmware might see that copied info as out of spec formulation. Who knows? That's the gamble with 3rd party you take.
Brother and any other printer maker gets complaints whenever their machines don't print correctly and sometimes that can be the formulation of the toner. Sometimes it's a firmware update that tightens the requirements for reported formulations. Sometimes that can be malicious and sometimes that's just a side effect of tweaking how the firmware processes different formulas. It's a lot of variables.
So that part about 20Factorial's printer is something that "sucks when it happens" but not all toner is the same thing. Brother can only assure proper assistance with mixtures they've had in their labs. BUT, and a big but here, while not all toner is the same, there's tolerance here and usually 90% of all toner on this planet falls within that tolerance. But you can never tell with 3rd party toner, it could be a one off batch, or yeah it could have been a firmware update that lost it's damn mind when it got presented with the chip information from the 3rd party toner.
The whole point is, this is really hard to nail down.
Now what isn't is when shit starts bricking. That's 99% of the time the OEM doing that shit to you. Now that could be on purpose or sometimes it's bad error checking for 3rd party stuff, but it's absolutely the code from the OEM doing it to you. I will say automatic color registration is a tricky bitch to get right, even when using OEM toner.
I'm not going to defend Brother here if they're doing shady stuff. But all the claims except fncamo, have that feel of losing the gamble with 3rd party toner, 99% of the time you win, but there's always that 1% that gets you.
fncamo's claim of bricking is odd, but at the same time, they may have power cycled while in a critical point of the inline firmware programming and bricked their printer themselves. But maybe not, it absolutely is the only one out of all of this that got my attention. I wish there was more to their comment.
But 3rd party toner SHOULD work, but only OEM toner WILL work. Like I said, 99% of the time the toner is chemically fine. There could be something else to what happened for the others.
I think what's wild is that Canada only makes 1% of Jack Daniel's sales while Mexico makes up 7% of their sales.
If Mexico pulls Jack off their shelves, it'll hit harder.
Does a single district court judge who likely lacks jurisdiction have the unchecked power to compel the government of the United States to pay out (and probably lose forever) 2 billion taxpayer dollars? The answer to that question should be an emphatic 'No,' but a majority of this court apparently thinks otherwise
— Justice Alito's dissent
The answer is "FUCKING YES". The Court is a co-equal branch to the President and Congress. The Courts have just as much right indicating that the President must uphold contractual obligations as Congress has the power to pass a budget and the President to distribute that funding to the States.
Yes, yes, FUCKING YES, the Courts have this power. The "CHECK" if there is to be one is for Congress to rescind the funding by law. THAT'S FUCKING CHECK DIPSHIT!!! It's not unchecked, if Congress passes a law indicating that the contracts are pulled, then ta-da, what the Judge said is moot. That's the FUCKING CHECK!!
Goddamn it, I hate it when these Justices say stupid shit because of their fucking bias and love of Trump's cock. Just what a fucking moronic statement by Alito. If the Government wants to cancel contracts, Congress has to grant that power. That's the check on the President. If the President fucking cancels contracts without that power, the Courts can mandate that the contracts be paid, that's the check on the President. If the President doesn't like what the Courts say, then they can go to Congress for the authority, and that's the check on the Courts.
It's all fucking balanced. What an absolute pile of shit Alito has offered up in this dissent. And what's worse is that he'd be totally complicit to remand to the lower courts had it been Biden pulling this shit. Suddenly the whole "impoundment" issue would manifest for the Courts.
What an absolute fucking naked ass corrupt pile of horse shit that dissent is. Goddamn, there is zero legitimacy left in that sack of shit that calls itself Samuel Anthony Alito Jr. "UNCHECKED POWER" my fucking ass. What complete horse shit. This fucking country is a goddamn failure.
But they brought some ping pong paddles to show how brave they are!
Which is none. Her degree is in communications and politics which she got while riding a softball scholarship. She was a press writer for Trump's first term, worked as a communications director for Elise Stefanik during the interim, and now she is Press Secretary. None of that is fucking economics. She has zero fucking knowledge of how fucking economics works, that's just stating fucking fact. When it comes to economics she is a fucking idiot.
It's not even a fucking question. Josh Boak has worked in DC economics reporting since 2013, he literally has more economic knowledge in his left pinky fingernail than that stupid fuckface has in her entire fucking life. That is just FACT.
Because she is a thin skinned bitch. She absolutely cannot stand that people could possibly know MORE than her dumb fucking softball is about as good as it is ever going to get for her, ass could ever know. She's just a fucking idiot, that's all there is to it.
Yes you fucking idiot, yes, Boak knows more by measures larger than stellar bodies are measured, about economics than you. For a White House that gets up in arms about DEI hires, holy shit I dare someone to explain her dumbass.
