Had a similar problem after I accidentally had the browser remember the login information. Clear that from your settings and it might work again?

this is a bad idea, you don't want to offer support on things

that is how pretty much every computer manufacturer not named Apple makes money

there's a guy with mental problems in A/T who's planning to walk from Florida to California through the desert states. he has lived his whole life on fast food and has never cooked anything on a stove and plans to live off Cliff bars and cereal, not even bringing a camping stove. he's done a few day hikes, so no problem there.

I'll give him less than a week before he gets picked up by the side of the road, feet covered in blisters and nearly dead from heat stroke and dehydration.

You know what would be cool, boss of TEAC? Audiocassettes that are more difficult to use and provide no benefit to audio quality.

Do they look cool?

they were involved in digital at the very beginning, they were just unwilling to start investing in plant to start up camera production again after polaroid wrecked their poo poo in the seventies. given the dedicated digital camera market is already disappearing rapidly in favour of smart devices it seems like that might have been a wise choice (they still make money on digital printing services, but fundamentally photography itself is a way tighter-margin market than it used to be)

maybe, but in doing so they also wasted the opportunity to be leader in sensors and related tech. that would've been such a better alternative than what ended up happening to them in the last 20 years

but no. myopic morons instead sat on their thumbs, eventually literally destroyed what they couldn't use:
