Fuck HP and its printer cartridges!
HP fined 1.4 billion rupees for “cartelization” of ink cartridges, toner, PCs

#Inkjet #cartridges suck and should be banned! Finally got some more paper for my #printer today but then the #cyan cartridge runs out of #ink, so I put in a new cartridge and guess what? The new one doesn’t work at all despite the printer saying the cartridge is full of ink. Like, I tried everything to fix it including reinserting the cartridge, doing the #nozzle check, cleaning the heads, performing a head realignment, restarting the printer, updating the #firmware, printing a cyan purge test page, none of that worked. The last two options I can think of are
1. Try using an official #Epson cartridge, since we’ve been using aftermarket cartridges for a while since the official ones are way #overpriced, but the aftermarket ones have been working fine up until now and if it doesn’t work, then that’s money on an #expensive Epson cartridge wasted.
Or
2. Just get rid of this #capitalist cartridge printer and buy a #tank one, because I’m done with printer companies locking us into #proprietary cartridges. I wanna be able to use whatever ink we buy without having crappy #DRM. Plus this printer is now 10 years old anyways, it’s lasted surprisingly long and has outlasted very other printer we had, but this problem as well as the constant need to realign the heads to stop lines from going through the ink are signs it’s time to upgrade to a tank printer.I hope one day the governments of the world ban inkjet cartridges, because they are horrible for the #environment and are just here to keep prices up.
Pics attached of the #nozzles in case anyone can see what’s gone wrong, but I highly doubt there is anything that can be seen.

Reportedly #Nintendo banned a user who bought several second-hand #Switch games and ran them on his #Switch2. Reason for the ban? Nintendo found out, that these particular #cartridges were ripped/dumped by the previous owner.
The guy was eventually unbanned after proving to Nintendo #support that he had bought the carts off #Facebook Marketplace and was not the one who ripped them.
My question is - HOW did Nintendo know, these carts were dumped/ripped? Is every cart individually traceable...?

The last #Switch2 update fixes issues with quite a few #LRG games 🤗
As I found out that a download can either run on my Switch1 OR my Switch2 and both(!) consoles need to be online to register the game to the former inactive console, it really pisses me off.
Had to use my phone as a hotspot to get the job done while on holiday in a hotel.
So real #cartridges will be even more interesting for me in the future✊️
When a big express SD card, a joycon with a dPad, a cheap 3rd party dock and a new #FlipGrip will be available, I will move all my former downloads over to my Switch2.
We'll see how long that takes😅
Then the #Switch1 will be used with my cartridges only.
This #VirtualSoftwareCard stuff ist just 💩https://x.com/LimitedRunGames/status/1935723468445626615?t=noyG0DaWfh7Xnc1IOeRvmg&s=09

Wow, last week: Amazon Kindle and now this week, Nintendo, a stark reminder that there is little ownership, preservation, or nostalgia when you buy a digital license or subscribe digitally to any retro media

Nintendo Switch Cartridges Are Being Replaced With Googly Eyes

Are #NintendoSwitch #cartridges low sugar?

Fake #retrocomputing ring busted in #Italy with #fake articles from #cartridges to #consoles $55.5m seized.
Many of the fake consoles did not meet safety standards.

A question to all the #8bit #retrocomputing enthusiasts out there:
I love using the 27C512 EEPROM for #Commodore #cartridges and ROM replacements. Is there any modern replacement available?
There doesn't seem to be a shortage of W27Cxxx right now, but it would be great not to have to rely on salvaged parts of shady AliExpress vendors.
The replacement doesn't need to be pin-compatible, as I like to do my own layouts. However, it should be electrically compatible and not too small, so I can still solder them easily by hand.

@MURRRAAAAY #NES #cartridges. Yes I blew on them when it didn't boot right.

Think back to the first time you used any type of games on a removable media, What was the first media format you started with? It was cartridges for me on my Sega Master System 2! 🎮

This is a '99er.
Check out this TI-99/4A setup ... collection ... room. It's the most impressive TI-99 situation I've ever beheld. Just, wow. Posted by John Carr on Facebook, showing the culmination of his lifetime of collecting.

Random Atari cartridge shelfie.
I'm unsure what to do when this shelf is full. Remove a bedroom? Get a bigger house? 🤷
