Hi everyone,

For the life of me, I cannot install hplip on Debian bookworm.

Here is what I get when I run apt install hplip-gui:

Unpacking printer-driver-postscript-hp (3.22.10+dfsg0-2) ...
dpkg: error processing archive /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-jEfRdO/7-printer-driver-postscript-hp_3.22.10+dfsg0-2_amd64.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/cups/filter/hpps', which is also in package hplipclassdriver 3.23.5
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-jEfRdO/1-libsane-hpaio_3.22.10+dfsg0-2_amd64.deb
 /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-jEfRdO/2-printer-driver-hpcups_3.22.10+dfsg0-2_amd64.deb
 /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-jEfRdO/5-hplip_3.22.10+dfsg0-2_amd64.deb
 /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-jEfRdO/7-printer-driver-postscript-hp_3.22.10+dfsg0-2_amd64.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Any help would be appreciated.

P.S I tried installing hplip using the run file provided by HP, but I ran into other issues. Bookworm doesn't seem to be supported yet.

Depending on your situation, most of your issues can be avoided by not owning a smartphone. It's extreme (by today's standards, at least), but it does work. I ditched my smartphone back in 2017 for a cheap flip phone. I can find spare parts on eBay easily. My car is older, so there is no SaaS crap in it. If I need to keep in touch with someone, we can use SMS, call each other or meet in real life. I use a Linux laptop for banking/browsing the web and I keep a physical GPS in my car in case of emergency.

and I agree with you. Privacy is pretty much gone already.

I was upset at first. Human beings have emotions and it's perfectly fine to feel them. You just have to make sure that they don't control you.

You've only got one life to live my friend. I spent a few years in the military and it was a great learning experience. It definitely changed my mindset.

34 years old with two kids.

I spent my 20s working like a horse, and I eventually bought a nice house in a quiet town. I had enough money to go on vacation to Mexico every year with my wife and my kids. Basically, I was living the American dream.

Fast forward a few years later. My wife tells me that she wants a divorce and she is dating the guy she told me not to worry about. Getting divorced means that 50% of my assets go to her, and I need to sell my house. Child support leaves me with little money left at the the of the month.

So, how do I feel? Not bad at all, actually. Have I lost a wife? No, she has been returned. Have I lost my possessions? No, they have been returned.

My children are healthy. They have a good relationship with me and their mother, and they have everything that they need. I am grateful for this. Then, I am aware that they could be taken from me anytime (e.g. sickness). You have to learn how to control your expectations.

As for the future, well whatever that I decide to set my mind to, I will do so with diligence. I'm currently trying to come up with programming projects to keep myself busy. Who knows? I could hit pay dirt, eventually (or not).

Living according to Nature is what I strive for. Everything else is irrelevant.

I use Session because it doesn't require a phone number.

It was a good episode, but there are a few things I didn't like:

  • Blowing up a space refinery on a whim.
  • Too much romance/interpersonal stuff, still.
  • Pike needs to grow a spine and be more assertive.

I give it a 6/10; not bad, not great. I'm looking forward to the new episode.

I've noticed this too. Most of the stuff on Reddit's frontpage has an angry undertone. Anger = Engagement.

I keep a GPS in my car in case of emergency, but I try to plan my trips ahead by memorising landmarks on OSM. As a species, we are losing our navigation skills.

 

Just wanted to thank the team for the vaporwave themes. They great!

Would it eventually possible to create our own themes via a CSS editor?

 

Do you use a non-tiling window manager like IceWM or blackbox? I use a patched version of motif window manager and it works really well.

Please share!

 

Hello everyone,

I'm currently learning Russian, and I'm looking for a community where I could have discussions about the Russian language. There is one community on lemmygrad.ml, but it's not very active.

Hello everyone,

I've recently acquired a TRS-80 Colour Computer 3. I am looking for a way to transfer ML/BASIC programs between my CoCo and my PC, but I am stuck. There is a device called 'DriveWire' that would fit the bill, but I don't think it's sold by its creator anymore.

What would you recommend?

Thanks
