What are the two in S tier?

I don’t know why they are booing you, you’re right! If you don’t want a printer that’s a loss leader with expensive ink then buy a tank printer or a laser printer.

Cartridge based inkjet printers are almost always a loss leader and you also buy the part that does the printing every time you buy a cartridge. The print heads are actually on the cartridge, not in the printer at all.

Tank based inkjet printers are very different - the printer costs more but the ink is cheap. They also have no way of knowing what brand ink you use since it’s just ink - not a whole set of print heads and a microchip. This is all because the print heads are part of the printer - not included with the ink in a cartridge.

Laser printers are also great but they get even more complex. They have drum units which can be part of the toner cartridge or a separate unit that needs replacing periodically depending on the design of the printer.

Now that’s just wrong

My point was, you’re obviously not stating the same about Washington or other western polititians that may have done even worse things.

Actually I do state these things. America bullies other nations all the time, and makes a pigs ear or it all the time too. See my comment about the Taliban, or how theg handled Vietnam. The US is almost as bad as the USSR, with the exception that they don’t kill their own people, only other people.

What you’re saying about Kronstadt dosen’t match what I have heard at all. They fought alongside each other in the revolution and then the Bolsheviks decided to bring in horrible undemocratic policies. The other groups protested this and where slaughtered at Kronstadt.

Oh I agree that what the US has done is wrong. That’s why I don’t support president bush or the US in general. It’s a very messed up country.

It’s also funny that they helped arm the Taliban only to go in and fight them, and then have them take back over anyway when they left. What an epic series of blunders that was.

Why have you commented twice the same thing?

I don’t support the US in general. If you’re talking about Ukraine specifically then Ukraine is in the right in this war, to the extent there is a right side in this war. NATO isn’t good but current day Russia is worse.

I don’t prasie Washington though. He just took what the Greeks did and made it worse.

Stalin should rightly be criticized. He took a great revolution and ruined it making people hate communism to this day.

Lenin and Trotsky weren’t that much better either before you start talking about them. Anyone remember Kronstadt?

I thought that one of the main ways hitler imprved the economy of Germany was through the war effort. Though I could ne wrong.

Honestly I had to google who he was, because I fogot. I am British, not American, so he isn’t a big deal over hear. Technically he was an enemy of my country not that really matters.

I don’t particularly support him if that’s what you’re asking, as I have no reason to. He wasn’t the first person to implement a democracy, and the democracy he implemented wasn’t a true democracy to begin with. The ancient greeks did it thousands of years before him and fyi also had slaves.

They also support North Korea!

The difference is almost nobody supports the presidents or officials that intiated said war crimes like president Bush. Tons of people hate Nixon too. Wheras these guys support Stalin despite his war crimes. If they supported USSR ideals without Stalin maybe that would be acceptable, but they don’t.

This is like if I tried to defend Hitler because of how he improved the economy, or his anti-smoking campaign.

They support North Korea for goodness sake. Being communists isn’t the problem, it’s that they support fascist dictatorships pretending to be communist.

I think the issue here people posting things in BeeHaw’s communities that they don’t want. The only way to stop that is to block users on a case by case basis, and since people can create unlimited free accounts this is ineffective given the low numbers of mods they have. The only way to work around this was to ban the two instances that had the most bad actors and easy registration.

I have floated the idea of a whitelist of users for their communities, but have been informed this isn’t supported by Lemmy at the moment.
