Hi, Al. This video is a dub of a Tumblr meme about tech enthusiasts vs tech workers. Please show it to people who will like it. Thank you.
where is the Tech Priest
My guy I don’t need a drawing app on my refrigirator, or a toaster that cannot function without wifi, or a microwave that will spy on me and reccommend recipes based on data input. "smart" technology is the dumbest and laziest thing. Heaven knows how anybody could hack into your house and spy on you through a smart lamp
This keeps being perpetuated and its grossly false. Most tech workers i know make their house intelligent, or infuse tech into their life.
Jokes aside, the best way to not let digital trace is to use physical tools.
Can sound kinda stupid, but it’s more useful than that, and I don’t mean "don’t use tech" but beware: if you wanna keep a secret for real, using digital tech to handle said information is the worst you can do.
for a second i thought i accidently launched cyberpunk 2077
Dude, it’s an HP. I use handloads, so DRM protections should prevent that sort of thing.
Printers rarely malfunction, but their ink/toner cartridges are _programmed_ to fail after a set period. That’s why I use third-party inks and toners.
the comments on here are so good lmao
Similar to our tech worker, I too keep a weapon nearby anytime I go near a printer, just in case it tries the unknown noise bit, I just take the weapon with me when I leave.
As I grow older, I increasingly find the idea of analog technology and monofunctionalism appealing.
My job is to figure out better ways to make computer chips. I want as few of them in my house as possible. I’ve seen what goes on in there. I know what they’re up to. I want none of it.
I don’t buy anything that "needs" to connect to the internet unless I want to use it to read the internet.
Linux user: You know that’s all spyware, right?
I’m an electrical engineer and I hate smart technology. My friend doesnt get it.
As a tech guy, i just like to make my own closed off smart systems. Granted, i could not adapt everything
I love the implication that he has a printer in his house, but not any computer to, you know, tell it what to print?
I love how ‘it’ could be talking about either the printer or the gun
If they have to tell us something is smart, it typically isn’t.
"Smart" is code for: Intrusive, Problematic, Deceptive, Not Yours.
So what kind of printer would you recommend?
Laser printers are much nicer than ink printers… but they have lasers.
This is fucking real
The Zuck puts tape over his laptop’s camera when doing live presentations.
This is enough for me to know, tech is not my friend.
I guess he got the gun he forgot to read the fine *print*
When you realize you are a tech worker.
How many companies are joined in your groups ?
This reminds me.
A coworker came to me showing off his newly installed smart home stuff.
"Look", he says, "here I can turn on and off my A/C and water heater from an app, and here is a camera where I can see my son sitting in the living room".
Then proceeds to call his son, "hey son, stop playing video games and go do your homework".
Honestly I was terrified for that kid. Imagine growing up in a home where you have little to no privacy, and your parents can spy on your every move.
"Good thing they didn’t have these things when I grew up" all I could say. "And thank God my parents were too poor to afford that stuff anyway", I thought to myself.
Why do you have a printer if you don’t have a computer in which to get its full manufactured use?
smart gadgets are not for people who are knowledgeable about digital technology they are for morons who know nothing about it
Bill Murray, playing Hunter S. Thompson, shot the fax machine in his cabin in the movie Where the Buffalo Roam. I was reminded of that scene.
imagine using tech in 2024
Ah, here’s the brilliant part. We in Sweden actually banned guns and other forms of weapons to make sure that our printer won’t use it against us. If they dare, we would we start using our extremely powerful weapon known as a screwdriver
As a tech university student, my dream is to live in dumbest house available in the countryside.
You used the literal opener song for Cyberpunk 2077 on that last part decribing the printer becoming alive and using the gun.
I see your genius.
btw your printer isn’t safe either. look up machine identification code. all major printer companies signed an agreement with the US government to print microscopic yellow dots that indicate on which printer the document was printed
I am a tech worker, (and a enthusiast). I have smart tech in my home, too bad for companies though all of that is made by me.
ok i translated it

hello this is jeaney
I am feeling healthy and alive
this video was made for comedic purposes only
please ensure that you keep your printers full of ink and in close proximity to your most deadly household objects
0:15 Mother fucker made me think Cyberpunk had launched in the background lol
"My entire house is smart" becomes the opening of a horror story to anyone who has worked tech support
hold up let him cook
* Insert tech enthusiast vs tech worker meme here
Why is this so insanely relatable. Working in the field you know all the marketing lies, all the scammy practises to harvest data, that customers just gladly sign up to thinking it’s smart and nice thing to do.
I got a homelab and a Desktop, thats about it. Normal household appliances do not need to be on the internet. Fucking lightbulbs don’t either and I am really not a fan of how new cars are coming with touchscreens and entertainment systems. Straight up detrimental to traffic safety. A radio is fine, screens that pulls your eyes away from the traffic is not. Cars need physical knobs, levers and buttons, they are intuitive and get locked into muscle memory unlike touchscreens.
Technicians: "no, you keep gun next to it to shoot it in case you get fed up with none kf the solutions you try working on It. Maybe there’s a hidden % of a bullet between the ink cartridges do just the trick you need ¯_(ツ)_/¯ "

He’s right.
Why’s the idiot always from Yorkshire?
In 2024 it’s not a stretch to believe that you’d be locked out of your house by the smart tech provider for doing the thought crime of the day
Gadget privacy is an oxymoron.
And here I thought I was the only one that keeps using technology less and less at home the more i have to work with it.
I love the fade in of the Cyberpunk 2077 music at 0:12
I’m one of the tech workers. Wanted a dumb TV so much I dug it out of the trash
