@sergio_101@sixdegreesofohio.com @pluralistic Connected shit is bad shit. The moment the company decides to fold their cloud services, you own costly junk. As happened to me with #Vorwerk #neato

OMG so i have an old HP printer. When my daughter was young, she rage printed coloring books, etc. so i got the ink subscription. years ago the front panel died, but i was still able to attach to the printer using the mobile app.

The thing just dropped its internet connection, and i can no longer factory reset it. I can no longer print, because it won't connect to the internet, and it can't see that i have a subscription to use the ink that is in the printer.
