    Actually, "fake frits" is a meme. Although "frits is a meme" may become a meme. Dang kids.

    All I can say is: your welcome.
    FTFY

    It is "you're" as in "you are welcome"...or is this some sort of meta-joke?

    I think the wireless printer guy was too quick to post. The cable is to provision your printer via PC to work on your wireless network in the first place. I own the model printer in question, and configuring its print server with '<', '>' and 'OK' would be madness.

    I don't have the printer but this was my exact thought when I saw it. They included the cable because it's a wireless printer and thus people wouldn't expect to need a cable. No WTF here.

    Even worse, if you open it up, you'll find it's full of wires! Same thing with my supposedly "wireless" phone. WTF!

    but it's a rule of modern electronics that if a thing can be done, it will be done without anyone stopping to ask "is there actually any point to this"? It's the same reason we have solar powered keyboards (no, I'm not making this up - apparently Logitech believe that outdoor keyboard use is a perfectly common thing).
    Well... the "solar powered" keyboard you're talking about works just the same way "solar powered" calculators do - ie, it works just fine with normal indoor lighting - and having a keyboard that never needs a change of batteries, or being hooked up or placed in a cradle for charging might appeal to some.

    You don't have to.

    It's optional. It's generally just easier. However, you can use the onboard control panel and do it. It's just more time consuming.

    Actually, VS 2010 (and earlier editions) is licensed per user, not device, so you may be OK using it on your home PC. That being said, the express versions are perfectly functional for most routine coding tasks.

    yep, to do the initial setup of your wireless printer, you need to run the software with it hooked up over USB, so it is the setup cable to setup wireless. Smug fail.

  • Daniel Kokan (unregistered) in reply to Leedo
    Leedo:
    Regarding the wireless printer coming with a cable. What folks seem to be missing is that, yes, it seems a bit silly to send a cable with a printer that is wireless. But the real WTF (and is part of the joke in the text) is that up until now regular wired printers never came with a cable. So now I buy a printer that doesn't need the cable and I get one??

    That was exactly the point. I was aware it was used for installation, as I had already installed it when I posted this. :)

    Regarding the wireless printer coming with a cable. What folks seem to be missing is that, yes, it seems a bit silly to send a cable with a printer that is wireless. But the real WTF (and is part of the joke in the text) is that up until now regular wired printers never came with a cable. So now I buy a printer that doesn't need the cable and I get one??

    That was exactly the point. I was aware it was used for installation, as I had already installed it when I posted this. :)

    Alright frontpage!

    I don't fully get this assertion. I'm not disputing you, it's just that every single printer I've ever bought (and I've gone through quite a few in my time) has come with a cable. I would return a printer if it didn't come with one, just on principle - if I've paid that much money for something I expect to be able to use it straight out the box, I don't even care that I've got a bunch of old cables already. Which is a good point, I can back up this claim by counting my printer cable collection..

    [I actually counted my old printer cables here]

    I found 4 LPTs and at least 4 USBs but it's hard to tell with the USB cables because they're just plain old USB A-B cables, I'm going by memory as to which ones came with a printer. Anyway, this still serves as a good indication that all my previous printer purchases have come with a cable.

    Is this an American thing maybe? Supply the hardware but con the customer into paying extra for the luxury of actually using it?

    I think the wireless printer guy was too quick to post. The cable is to provision your printer via PC to work on your wireless network in the first place. I own the model printer in question, and configuring its print server with '<', '>' and 'OK' would be madness.

    Exactly what I came to say. Without a big screen and a keyboard on the printer, how else do you intend to get the printer on your network? I'm not one to come crying about TRWTF, but...

    My Brother HL-2170W shipped configured to use an ad-hoc wireless network and instructions on how to configure my laptop to join the network, once I connected to it I was then able to reconfigure it to connect to my access point

    Thew Visual C# installer needs to install common components, required to be present on the drive containing %WINDIR% and %PROGRAMFILES%, that's where the gross of the size comes from.

    TRWTF is that you're installing an IDE and expect to be taken seriously as a programmer with your submission.

    FTFY

    Haha! Of course you were only kidding .... I mean you were kidding ... right??
