and because i’m a lazy ass i didn’t read the specs but just read the search engine result.

I also assumed that because 6 years ago i bought a $50 hp envy and it had wifi, this much expensive one is also going to have it

Result: that $250 printer doesn’t actually have wifi

    Wow, it’s surprising to me that some people will take the time to create a search and then not follow through to look at the results. No wonder we have AI summaries for everything now.

        You’re right, i came on a little strong. I’ve toned it down.

        It seriously blows my mind that people don’t actually open the search results. People like you are the reason there’s a fucking AI summary for everything now.

      i was in a physical store and i saw this in clearance, didn’t have time to do the usual spreadsheet where i compare 10 almost identical variants all with a similar price that vary by just one bit.

      The same stuff is sold as G2170, G2270, G2470, G2570, G2770, G2870 and G2970, one add something but remove something.
