People sure like to just toss the word "brick" around. These printers are still functional enough to get another firmware update to fix them. You know what can't? Bricks

Yeah, can we go back to when "brick" had a very specific definition with respect to electronics?

Pfft, in my time bricks had a very specific definition with respect to masonry work.

You damn kids with your fake definitions for real words, I swear it's because y'all are rotting your brains away with all these new mediums for acquiring news.

It used to make me mad. Now it just makes me sad.
