Whoa, I'm sure by 2025 we'll have 8-12PB consumer-friendly priced options for the mid-level PC enthusiasts. Like, your local computer store, boxed and priced reasonably.
Wh-what happened to this dream? I recall a natural disaster affecting HDDs for a period, but am I the only one feeling a little left out of (dare I say, a sense of entitlement) to PB drives where TB drives are in 2026? Gonna tell me tech has stalemated for the consumer when we're now in Quantum Computing era? There have been leaps and hurdles techwise since '07...
Have you considered those plain foam earplugs? Now you can get 'em at super isolating ratings. If you're in The States, give Alpine earplugs a check. Comes with a variety of noise-block interchangeable/swappable inner filters, and not for much scratch.
Noise can definitely be a nuisance, but think about what you can do for your first lines of defense. Don't go on the offense.
Would you believe I've been getting ripped off all these years?! I feel so opbeaniated over this revelation! We should start a coffee revolution!
And your mug of dark brown water cannot be worse than what I drank as a sailor. "They say that in the org here the coffie's mighty-fine! Looks like muddy water, tastes like terpentine!"
"Today a young Lemming on acid realized that all coffee is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves. Here's Tom with the Weather."
Aye, is why I joined a boat club, and some of the smelliest, bearded and weird ones sure did love saying, "aye aye" to falling with style into the deep... The rest of us either "aye'd" to stay afloat, or like me... I'd ayed to stay aground. *long sigh" aye, I was a sailor once. I've pitterpattered over many a medium, but the cobblestone kinderkopjes got to me. The Belgians got it wrong again. They're "children's cups". Setts? Sounds choppy to my oars.
Hey. I'm sincere when I say this: I think we sometimes get into the unfortunate habit of gloomscrolling, just incessant negative news- that when we stumble into another community, we go in a bit "on-edge". Please don't think they're out to harm you. I've gotten upset by TheOnion more than my fair share of times. Also, toast rocks.
From screenshots of having the GUI installed (It's looking like some sort of Web Config or Printer Settings pave that has toggles for 2-Sided/Duplex printer, as well as playing with the quality of the print jobs. Maybe I was misunderstanding thr purpose of the gutenprint-printer-app
Give it a go, we're curious, and I'm invested in you overcoming this silly printer hoops-and-loops getting just the basic features ironed out.
Hey fellow Debian Stable penguin, I'm running out of power-ups over here, wondering if you were able to install it and check? Would love to know if it worked better for you, before num-nums and nite-nite time. 22:50 local time here for me.
sudo apt-get install printer-driver-gutenprint
There's also a Gutenprint GUI installable as a Snap package, that way Debian Stable (for good reason) is timely behind Experimental (which has it).
Check if snap is installed by:
snap --version
If not installed already, you can run:
sudo apt install snapd
Then rerun the above 'version checker command' and if all went well, do:
sudo snap install core
And then get it into Active state with:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
Then we make a symbolic link for classic snap support (Arch and Debian systems need this:
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snaps/snap /snap
Whew. All's in place. Now getcha the Gutenprint GUI using snap:
sudo snap install --edge gutenprint-printer-app
And once it's snapped into your Debian system, launch it from Terminal with:
gutenprint-printer-app
This is my first comment ever on Lemmy with this many copy/paste code snippets. Hoping it all formatted correctly for ya, and let us know how it goes from here! LOLseas

Also, I think we all should acknowledge this is Dullsters. ITT it's violence all up and down. Come on, team.

Mmmmm, Waßer.
Sounds kewel, can we get a pic? And thanks for posting!
Hey dude, let it be. I couldn't do any better, of coarse not.

Sorry I couldn't be the fixer here. No disrespect meant, just trying to help. LOLseas

Do it. Do it now.
I found it listed under gimp-print.sourceforge.io/p_Supported_Printers.php listed as Experimental. Gutenprint is originally Gimp-Print.
It's labelled as "Canon MAXIFY MB2750" on that page. In the terminal, what's the output of:

Name and shame the printer company. That's infuriating to read.
