... can only be sent messages via ... facebook.  
Are you serious ? There is no other option than creating a fecebook account to send a message to HP ? (Yes, during the week, there is a hotline with people who barely pseak english. And anyway, I do not understand why I need to talk english when I need support in France).
I have subscribed to instant ink. Every time I need to print something, my printer prints out a test sheet because of it. And this test sheet is counted on my monthly amount of printed pages

It could be worse, support for my Samsung laser printer is now in the hands of ... HP !

As is mine. Fortunately it doesn't appear to need any support (and no bleeding ink cartridges either!)
I've had to get a new Yellow toner cart, but the other "sample size" ones are still half full. And every time I want to print, I turn it on, I print, I turn it off. Works like a charm!

My personal HP laptop has this Support -
- A WhatsApp number (+1 786 482 6615)
- An email id (I live in India, so this is an India specific email id)
The above WhatsApp number is a US number, so should work anywhere.
Maybe this is not the printer-specific WhatsApp number, but they should be able to provide info on that.

HP is just an "ink" company these days. You buy the ink and they throw in a printer. The rest of the time they assemble PC's using components from others, with some branding of the OS.

Get your printers from Wal-Mart.
The employees are as ignorant as they come, and will treat it just the same as a non-working toaster, so bring it back and ask to exchange it.
I'm only half-joking.

Always wanted to say that!
Anyway, following on from one of your recent posts, tomorrow I will be the owner of a cheap sous vide machine. I intend to experiment with steaks, roasts, chicken breasts, etc.
The question for now is what do you recommend to start with? Something simple that will impress the wife!

Go with steak: Rump is good - I think that's "Sirloin" over there?. Cheap cut that has good flavour but tends to be tough to chew. Thick steaks are better than thin, wide ones.
Trim off the rubbish (Sous Vide isn't good to lumps of fat), and rub with salt, black pepper, and garlic before you bag it. You can add butter, but you don't need to.
Preheat the sous vide to 56C / 133F and cook for 60 minutes.
Remove the bag(s) and heat a pan to high, with a mix of butter and oil ("butter for flavour, oil for heat" and Gordon Ramsey says) and fry the steak for 30 seconds or each side to build a crust - this starts the Maillard Reaction which gives the outside is distinctive flavour. Put them in a warm place for the few minutes the rest will take!
Pour out the oil from the pan, and deglaze it with brandy or whiskey. Add lots of ground pepper, and beef stock, and quickly reduce, add the meat juices form the bags, and then whisk in cream (in small batches to avoid curdling) to make a pepper sauce. Serve with fries and roasted tomatoes.
Sounds like more work than it is, honest!
The result should be steak that the brown on the outside, and pink all the way through - it should have loads of "I worked hard" steak flavour, with the tenderness of fillet (Filet Mignon over there?)

agreed. we need a Cooking forum for sure.

Thanks! That sounds delicious. I'll give it a go.
I think you got your steak terminology correct. It's been a long time since I moved across the pond but I do remember rump steak. It's also interesting that some cuts of meat are more popular in certain regions of the US than others. I moved from Texas to Idaho a few years ago and the selection at the local grocery store is noticeably different. For instance, tri tip roast is popular here (great for braising), but hard to find in Texas. Also, potatoes are insanely cheap!

Actually, if you want to impress the missus you need to do veggies as well.
Do carrots as the first try, you can't fail on those.
Take a pound of carrots and cut them into strips similar to French fries. (or use baby carrots)
Add them to a bag together with two tablespoons of butter, one tablespoon of sugar and half a teaspoon of salt, and vacuum seal it.
Sous vide for an hour at 183F or 84C.
This bag can now be used immediately or stored in a fridge for at least up to a fortnight, It's been properly pasteurized.
Just before serving, make sure the bag is warm enough so the butter is properly liquid.
Pour the liquid content into a small frying pan, and heat until all the liquid has evaporated and the sugar caramelizes,
Add the carrots and stir for another couple of minutes.
Serve.

I bought a code signing certificate from a CA(such as GeoTrust etc..) long time ago and signed my application(written in C#) few years ago.
my question is: will my code signing certificate expire? will my previously signed application still get installed successfully in client machine(Windows System)?
diligent hands rule....
|
|

AFAIK - it will have an impact. Your certificates has a defined validity. As long as it's valid, your signature is. Once the certificate expires, your exe will go into insecure exe zone and anti-viruses might start flagging it up.
So, your previously signed application can install successfully on client system at the mercy of antivirus systems. (mostly would flag it because of expired certificate, keeping security as priority unless they have enough data in their database to confirm it is an okay executable)
|
|
|
|
|
my new goal is to install a driver program onto client machine. after it is signed and installed on client machine successfully, what will happen
after my certificate expires, will that driver program still work?
this is the question bugging me and I can not validate it now...
diligent hands rule....

You should go back to the authority where you purchased the certificate and review the terms with them.
That said, the 'code signing' business is a lovely racket. At regular intervals a weakness is discovered in the certificate mechanism, at which time all current owners are given a [fairly short] interval during which they must purchase a new certificate to indicate their software is 'valid'. If they fail to update their certificate, their software is invalidated.
There is little difference between you the developer and the certificate authority, and the thug with a Glock in the mini-mart wanting this week's $500.

I looked into this a while back since I had written a winforms app I wanted to be known as safe.
I came to the same conclusions -- that it is hardly realistic with all the work you have to do plus the $$$.
But here's the really interesting thing...
You can create an installer that will install an ElectronJS complete app (or a NodeJS app) that runs natively on the user's desktop and has extended abilities and Windows will not flag that app at all. It will simply install without every complaining or making any antivirus aware.
Most users would never know the difference between the Electron app and a normal Windows app either.
So, the system is kind of broken that way too.

If you want your executable and installer to work after expiry, you have to sign it with a timestamp from one of the timestamp website with /tr switch before its expiry. In my case, I use timestamp.digicert.com
signtool.exe sign /tr http:

|
|

If it is an Authenticode certificate you can find the expiry date somewhere in the file properties, it is hard to find btw.
