IT people hate computers.
Correction: IT people hate printers.
Correction: printers hate people.
As a non-IT person, fuck HP in particular.
PC load letter? What the fuck does that mean?

Fuck printers
Nom one invented a good printer still
I have read this ten times now, and I still can’t figure out what it is supposed to mean…
Printers are known in IT to be a utter pain in the ass. Most brands are also using a lot of proprietary stuff and it limits interoperability. Drivers for example.
Well known example is about ink cartridges. HP added identification chips on them, so if you want to use an other brand, not HP, to fill your printer, you can’t because if no chip is detected despite a cartridge being inserted, the machine will tell you it is not genuine.
Another example with Rycoh. I don’t know if their printers still use this method, so take it as an example of capitalist greed more than a current situation. Laser printers are using a sealed container to process waste created during printing. Rycoh had placed a led detector inside to know when it was full and trigger an alert, stopping the machine and request for a change. Good idea in theory but in practice the detector was placed very oddly or on purpose near or in front of dust intake. So it was bathed very quickly in electrostatic dust and thus triggered the alarm very quickly, even if your container was not fully filled. The only way to solve this was to shake your waste storage, hoping it would clean the led enough to keep going for a few days or change it.
Lastly, I have a Brother printer, bought to a neighbor sale. The oven inside, which is in charge of heating the ink, had a failure. It had melted. For the price, it was a deal. I only needed to buy a new part, unplug it, replace and I had a laser printer with colours. Well, Brother had lightly soldered pins linking the connector to PCB. When I unplugged it, soldering came with it. I contacted a repair store near me telling me they don’t do it and I should ask for a repair to a certified Brother technician. Which is overpriced. I also can’t open it fully as it is placed to be impossible to repair without disassembling half of the machine.
No printer is the same, some brands are better than others. Some are well accepted on Linux with CUPS, some other not. But so far, not one brand impressed me well enough by their design to keep it open, easily fixable and long lasting.
FUCK PRINTERS

IT people hate other people using a computer
I hate my computer as well. That’s why I have to modify it to something completely different before I am able to use it for basic text editing.
I AM TALKING TO YOU EMACS PUT YOUR BACKUPS SOMEWHERE ELSE BY DEFAULT ALREADY I USE GIT
Many IT people love computers. They hate computers that other people use.
Photo editors hate:
Enhance! Just keep enhancing!
Some of this is absurd, but I feel like a lot of it is tongue-in-cheek stuff or just “let’s see how far we can push things into ridiculousness before your grandma notices that something’s off”.
CS people hate the printer
…and a lot of them hate the end-user, too. Why must we involve people in the whole computer thing? Isn’t an abacus and a box of crayons enough?
I work in a print shop and i also hate the printer.
Fuck you Xante. I hate you so much
CSIT but yeah. I work in a company with people with masters in CS from Ivy League schools and they don’t understand the first thing about how hardware or their OS works. Common misconception…which, in and of itself, is sad as hell because one of the course requirements (at least when I was working on my CS degree) was Operating System Concepts & Design.
Well that is accurate…
Firemen hate pedophiles
Teachers hate pedophiles
Doctors hate pedophiles
Lawyers hate pedophiles
Liberals hate pedophiles
Conservatives hate pedophiles
Independents hate pedophiles
Where’s the fucking list Donny? Give us the list you fat orange fuck. We know you’re on it, and so do you. How did you think this was going to pan-out, dumbass?
Conservatives hate pedophiles
I wish this was really a blanket rule.
We can put “most” in front of all of these categories. Acting like there are no liberal or independent ones is the equivalent of enabling them. Put them all in prison no matter what political affiliation.
It’s in that performative superiority-complex way, like Lindsey Graham hating gays
Conservatives hate pedophiles
Unless it’s their own, then “he’s saving a young girl from extreme poverty”/“she’s teaching a lucky boy a special lesson”/“was a human after all, no one is perfect”.
Shitlibs that pretend Bill Clinton and Joe Biden aren’t pedos give me a fucking headache. Also Bill Gates and Alan Dershowitz.
I haven’t seen anything related to Biden, but I haven’t heard a single person, on any side if any aisle, defending Clinton. It’s always just seemed like a failed “gotcha” attempt on the right, because most everyone to the left of “I’ll vote for anything with an R next to their name” would have no issue throwing offenders from their own side in jail along with the others.
From what we’re seeing in the US, pedophiles hate pedophiles… at least publicity.
Like bitjunkie said:

Do they?
Yeah, because they are hebephiles and the pedoes defile the kid before they can.
Looks like you got downvoted by 9 pedophiles
*child molesters. Many (if not most) who sexually abuse children are not sexually attracted to children. Many who are sexually attracted to children do not abuse children.
sysadmins hate end users because end users suck.
This brought to mind a collection of asshole admin stories from the early internet. With a bit of googling, it was The Bastard Operator From Hell. God, I haven’t thought of those since the 90s. I can’t believe I could even recall something like that.
Anyway, fuck users.
They are still ongoing!
That thing spawned so many fucking great memes before they were even widely called that
I just referred to the BOFH in class last week.
… Nobody caught the reference but it made me happy.
Hear hear
EMS hate motorcycles and decorative throw rugs.
and anything vaugly shaped like a butt plug but is not a butt plug.
Do the floor rugs trip people?
And post-shit stand ups.
Potty humour?
Aneurisms
and those huge mirrors thar you just leaning against the wall
Psychoanalysts hate those blotchy black & white images of my mother’s pussy giving birth to my father who is wielding a knife with my name written along the hilt. “Stop bringing these fucking drawings in here!” she yells. God forbid a man have hobbies.
😶
This was just calculatingly unhinged
You’re fascinating.
Going through your profile, I just had to upvote your comments.
Death Star structural engineers hate the waste management guys
Glass manufacturers hate bubbles.
A lot.
So do economists!
Ents also hate Orcs
Who downvoted you? Saruman himself?
It legit took me longer than it should have to realize it wasn’t talking about the tree people.
- Emergency Medicine: Alcohol and/or fireworks
- Family Medicine: Wellness influencers
- Surgery: Pre-op NSAIDs (eg ibuprofen)
- Pediatrics: RFK Jr
every time i pick a different direction in my career, Donald Trump personally brings about that industry’s ruin
Have you considered a job in the military-industrial complex, or maybe at a hedge fund?
Instructions unclear now I’m having an affair with Pete Hegseth.
He would just use you be looking at himself in the mirror while flexing the entire time.
WW3 and having to suck up to racist pedophiles, those are already on the chopping block
Funeral Homes hate the Government.
They are incredibly rude to the families receiving financial assistance, it takes 3 months for them to pay us, and did you know that if you don’t have a will they cut your step-children out of the process entirely?
We had one gentleman in our care whose only living family was his step-daughter. Because there were no blood relatives and no will the Public Guardian took control of his disposition and the step-daughter had no say in anything that happened with him. Wasn’t allowed to keep a portion of the ashes, the Funeral Director had to fight just to allow the step-daughter a brief final visitation.
This is also true for children under 18. Your 17 year old child has no say in your disposition if you have no other living relatives.
Have a will people, if for no other reason than to allow your loved ones to decide how they will grieve rather than some indifferent bureaucrat.
It never occurred to me that a government would pay a funeral home, but now that I think about it, it makes perfect sense for a government to collectively pay for the disposal of human remains, since everyone needs it, and it can’t be abused.
Not everyone is eligible, but if the family has no money to pay for it the government pays for basic services. If the family has funds available they have to pay but I believe they get reimbursed for some amount.
Which country is this?
Canada

Data scientists hate time zones.
