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?
Bold of you to assume the end user can handle crayons
I work in a print shop and i also hate the printer.
Fuck you Xante. I hate you so much
PC load letter? What the fuck does that mean??
No idea, but we treat them all the same. 230vAC to the USB port.
500years of printing and this is the best we got… Smh
HP printers in particular.
Weirdly, i don’t hate HP printers (at least, the FutureSmart ones). Xerox can fuck right off with all those restarts just to change fucking settings though
People who have worked with printers know that HP is bad but Xerox is worse.
It’s a matter of Consumer vs Corporate
In the consumer space, HP is the worst. In the corporate world, Xerox is the worst (iirc Xerox doesn’t even make consumer grade printers)
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…
Photo editors hate:
I need to sit down and actually watch Red Dwarf sometime. Like I did once watch the first few episodes when I was a teenager but I was way too young to fully appreciate it
You’re in for a treat, Red Dwarf is great. I loved it as a kid. The newer series they made we’re very decent too.
RED DWAAAAAAAAAAAAARF!!!
Best live action show ever.
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”.
And anyone in a field related to studying living creatures in nature hate pesticides/herbicides. Because pesticides harm everything that eats the thing that eats the thing that eats the thing that eats the pesticide.
Same thing with lead shot accumulating in large birds.
Wait, so the lead shots imbed in the animals that eat the lead shot large birds? And again for the animals that eat the animals that eat the lead shot large birds?
If an animal gets shot with lead, survives and runs away, there is now a wounded animal or an animal carcass containing lead somewhere in the wild.
If it is wounded or freshly dead a carnivore will eat it and accumulate lead. That may be large carnivore or a smaller carnivore that later gets eaten by a bigger one. Birds tend to have stronger stomach acid that most mammals, allowing them to dissolve the lead better.
Vultures having it the worst as they will eat any carcass and have the strongest acid.Is that… me?
Ornithologists hate cats.
Simple, common bird appreciators too
Don’t forget reptile and insect appreciators, we also hate cats
Not to forget a lot of cats, who also hate cats
Cats or people who allow their cats to be outdoors?
Yeah, I reread my comment and it can be interpreted either way, but it is definitely the second one.
There are also cats that wouldn’t even catch a cold, but the issue is mostly with either stray cats or those that are allowed out.
Me too
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?
EMS hate motorcycles and decorative throw rugs.
and anything vaugly shaped like a butt plug but is not a butt plug.
Not with that attitude
Also, actual butt plugs. Yes, they can and they will slip inside to the point you can’t get them out.
ALWAYS USE A FLAIRED BASE. Ideally a very wide flaired base.
very important lol
You ever realize that a guy is the flaired base to his penis?
The real life pro tip, in the replies as always
Flair: the 32 pins and badges at TGIFriendly’s
Flare: a widening at the base
Ah, thank you I missed that :)
Reminded me of this post: https://lemmy.world/post/34770628
Why do they hate the decorative throw rugs?
Slip and fall danger.
I know 2 people that both had an accident this way. One tore off a tendon around the knee, the other fractured their hand from trying to cushion their fall. And I don’t know that many people.
Yeah, people don’t realize you can add non-slip materials to the bottom to minimize the risk.
Fell on a throw rug yesterday
Some real TIL gems in this thread.
Get receive rugs instead, got it
Extremely common trip and fall hazard, frequently in the homes of old people with bad balance and fragile bones
I hate them too. Some people insist they actually increase safety
Agree on the rugs but motorcycles are more of a “I hate people” thing. I’m an EMT that dailies a bike and tons of my coworkers ride too
Nephrologists love donor cycles though
and those huge mirrors thar you just leaning against the wall
And post-shit stand ups.
Potty humour?
Aneurisms
Do the floor rugs trip people?
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!
Original author too. He was hired by The Register.
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
Death Star structural engineers hate the waste management guys
Software devs hate users
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.
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.
Glass manufacturers hate bubbles.
A lot.
So do economists!
And phlebotomists!
And deep sea divers
Structural engineers: fire, water, air and earth. They are like the Anti-Avatar
Everything changed when the Structural Engineering Nation attacked.
ENTs hate Q-tips?!
That doesn’t make sense to me. But, then again, you are very small.
People sticking Q-tips in their (E)ars and to a lesser extent, (N)oses and (T)hroats.
You’re absolutely correct, but op is making a joke about Ents from LotR. A cheeky little pun, if you will.
As someone whose name escaped the skipping record that your name is, I concur.
It’s a reference to this character from Catch-22. Unless this is my turn to be wooshed.
I wasn’t making any kind of reference, myself, to be whooshed by. I’ve used this name around for a little while and just wanted to agree with your statement, then noticed the partial similarity in our names and wanted to comment on that, to, as if someone were trying to say my handle but got stuck on an audio loop: “Major— major— major— major—”
