I like it, but it’s even worse than that as I’ve never had my printer murder motorcyclists or trap me inside and burn my body into dust.

Don't worry. HP is working on this for their next firmware update.

Brb, buying every model of HP printer (gotta get a chance at going first, if you don't shoot you can't score)

[–] brap@lemmy.world 16 points 21 hours ago

Haha of course they are. Fucking HP.

There was a bug in HP printers that let people remotely set them on fire.

No, see, we only call it a bug if it isn't meant to be in the software. In this case, it's a feature.

That's not from lack of desire, but ability.

The spirit is willing, but the cord is short.

Man, imagine a printer with arms. You’re not surviving the night.

I got a shotgun, though. I think I've got a chance.

In the early 2000s my hp printer had a paper jam and the error message from cups was “printer on fire!”

[–] OwOarchist@pawb.social 3 points 15 hours ago

I’ve never had my printer murder motorcyclists

But I suspect it would if it could.

While telling you it can't open the door because it's out of magenta.
