Me: Is there even a single distro that has usable scroll bars?

@ExperimentV Ahh, I recall a similar incident here with UPC (an ISP) and their shitty marketing strategy; mailing out modems or something to people unsolicited, with a fine print of "if you don't return this, then you accept our offer for $expensiveService"

Plenty of people returned the box with the included return label... just containing bricks instead of the original modem

I didn't know you could tape these "no postage necessary" flyers [envelopes] to boxes. This is a game changer.

@luci computers are so bad for multilingual content because anglophones don't account for it

@schratze icecat is like, the catalog that nearly every online shop uses for categorization and metadata of their products, and they'd be lost without it, so idk, sounds pretty close to "at gunpoint" :D

@schratze I think you can unironically get a job doing that at icecat?

@ben (of course it's no surprise that a bot will be branded as a 'good bot' as soon as it has a commercial "legal business" purpose...)

@RileyStarlight (They primarily do PCB prototyping so that's what most of the About text is about, but AFAIK the same limitations apply for their cable manufacturing)

Looking for cable assembly factory.

For a work project, I am looking for a factory that performs cable assembly to order. The factory I have worked with previously has closed, and I can't find another one that wants to accept this order because of "small quantities".

I need the assembly of different types of cables, from one conductor to fifty conductors, from 16AWG to 24AWG. Different types of connectors/terminals. A total of 2300 cables.

Does anyone know of one where I can request a quote? It doesn't matter if it is an international order. Thank you. Boosts welcome.

@RileyStarlight How about dirtypcbs.com/store/cables? Their selection of connectors is somewhat limited, so I'm not sure whether it'd work for your case. Also, make sure to read dirtypcbs.com/about first!
