Free Software Foundation (fsf)'s status on Tuesday, 02-Jul-2019 19:33:43 UTC Free Software Foundation FSF's John Sullivan in @WIRED on the Microsoft ebook apocalypse: “This is why we call #DRM media and devices defective by design, or broken from the beginning. There’s self-destruction built into the whole concept.” https://u.fsf.org/2v4 https://u.fsf.org/dbd -
LinuxWalt (@lnxw48a1) {3EB165E0-5BB1-45D2-9E7D-93B31821F864} (lnxw48a1)'s status on Sunday, 16-Jun-2019 16:04:29 UTC LinuxWalt (@lnxw48a1) {3EB165E0-5BB1-45D2-9E7D-93B31821F864} The other thing about #TUR / #DRM in printer cartridges is that some business-class toner cartridges have expiration dates. There may be nothing else wrong with the cartridge except that your company's purchasing folks bought in bulk and you haven't used them all, and the cartridges will still stop working after a certain date.
* TUR = Technical Usage Restrictions. DRM (Digital Rights Management) is just a euphemism to make TUR seem "right".
(Didn't want to divert Andrew's @ajroach42 and Sean's @freakazoid conversation, but I thought this might be relevant information for them, so I posted this separately.) -
