I'll admit I was amazed when I plugged an old Samsung CLP-375 in and it just worked. I have a fraught relationship with printers that goes back to the '80s. I'm amused by my dentist. She has two printers and trying to get either one to print a receipt is an adventure. I've told her the receipt ultimately goes in the trash and I don't need it for anything but she insists.

I made the "mistake" of mentioning to someone in my dental office about how it was going with their Great New Biz System. The response was something like SHOCK. Some glib salesman had sold them on their Great New Better System - but NOBODY could get it to work worth a damn. Disaster ! However their IT guy IS happy ... he got paid to xfer their files over to the new system, and now AGAIN going back to the OLD system that actually worked :-) Oh, the Great New System is called "Dolphin". Now they have a dart-board with a dolphin pic on it. Really. :-)

I don't know what my dentist uses. I know they changed software, and
they have some computer with the old system in order to see the old
data. But on their new terminal they have a 3D representation of my
mouth, they can see in isolation a single molar, in 3D.

Well, I have no idea how they did it. I guess they hired someone to do
it all.
They did have some problem with their tools: water not coming out when
it should or the lamp going off. They muttered about something wrong on
that station.

They must face the full meaning of that which they are advocating or condoning; the full, exact, specific meaning of collectivism, of its logical implications, of the principles upon which it is based, and of the ultimate consequences to which these principles will lead. They must face it, then decide whether this is what they want or not. Ayn Rand.

And unless things have changed recently, the chairs and a lot of the other equipment are almost certainly made by one of two companies headquartered in Newberg, Oregon, USA. Last I heard, https://www.a-dec.com/ has about 90% of the worldwide dental chair (and equipment) market, while https://www.dcionline.com/ has nearly all of the other 10%.

That works on the correct voltage Remember no one buys American if they want customer support -- “it should be clear by now to everyone that activist environmentalism (or environmental activism) is becoming a general ideology about humans, about their freedom, about the relationship between the individual and the state, and about the manipulation of people under the guise of a 'noble' idea. It is not an honest pursuit of 'sustainable development,' a matter of elementary environmental protection, or a search for rational mechanisms designed to achieve a healthy environment. Yet things do occur that make you shake your head and remind yourself that you live neither in Joseph Stalin’s Communist era, nor in the Orwellian utopia of 1984.” Vaclav Klaus

She says the visualization is better than what she gets from x-rays. It's way down the road but she is also interested in 3D printing bridges and crowns rather than the current drawn out process of making molds and sending them off to a lab. It's a long way from when I was a kid and they used cable powered drills to create holes that they filled with mercury amalgam.

I had *fair* success with Endeavour. Seems to
be a pretty nice system.
However, as also experienced with Manjaro, the
UPDATES seem to soon fail. Then you have to
dump the whole system.
Sorry, NOT gonna replace crap with more crap.
The Archiverse needs to get its shit together.
And DON'T like their dual, regular + "AUR",
repo system. Get it all TOGETHER guys !!!
Still gonna stick mostly to "MX". It "Just Works".
Mint is pretty much the same.
See my notes on "DietPi" also. SOMETHING has
gone amiss on what USED to be a good minimalist
OS.
The more complex and convoluted Linux distros
become, the more ways it can all go WRONG.
Somebody somewhere needs to look back maybe 15
years and figure out why all that used to
go very WELL.

Get it all TOGETHER guys !!! Yet you're using distros with PPA support and most likely have one of them added to your repositories list. Am I right? How this is different with "regular + AUR"? And, actually, it is MUCH MORE WORSE! The only thing I hate about those COPR, PPA and other type of third party repos in distros like Debian, Ubuntu, OpenSUSE is that there is no guarantee that when some dependency updates these packages will be rebuilt in timely manner, so it is more likely you will have broken app. And moreover you cannot do it yourself with simple command - you have to download package sources, build package, install built package, and it's THREE different commands. In Arch I can do that with simple "yay PKGNAME". We can go futher - Gentoo's portage will rebuild packages automatically if dependency was updated. But due to nature of distro I am not using it, because I have work to do, not to mangle for hours with system update.

No, thanks. The update to 6.17 was bad enough. It's an old netbook with a Broadcom wifi chip and the dkms process would fail and it would revert to 6.14. To even install I use a Panda USB wifi dongle. Once installed, the Mint driver manager was able to get a Broadcom driver. It had been working but not with 6.17. I was able to find a deb with one that worked. Oddly when troubleshooting the problem I got a lot of hits on Mac sites and I think that's where I finally found the update. I can't remember what I had on the netbook prior to Mint but it was the same cha-cha. Install with the dongle the iso recognized and then get the Broadcom driver. I don't know if it's because it's from 2011 or if Broadcom support isn't up to par.

Broadcom Wi-Fi is a biggest crap in Linux world because there are no good driver for it. To eliminate this problem just buy an adapter or dongle that uses Atheros or Realtek chip.
