    HP Blocked My Ink… So I Replaced All 4 Printers TGP#778

    Welcome to The Gadget Professor Show #778 hosted by Don Baine. This Week on The Gadget Professor Show This week, I’m doing something a little different. Instead of reviewing the latest cutting-edge gadget, I’m talking about something we all rely on… printers — and why I made the decision to remove four HP printers from my studio and home office. After years of mechanical issues, frustrating customer service experiences, and being transferred endlessly on support calls, I finally hit a breaking point. My printers refused to print, claiming I did not have “valid HP ink” — even though I was enrolled in the Instant Ink program and using genuine cartridges sent directly from HP. When I cancelled the subscription, the printers blocked the cartridges entirely. That was it. In this episode, I’ll break down: What actually happened How subscription-based ink programs really work Why your printer may not truly belong to you And the financial reality of cartridge printing vs tank systems I replaced all four units with the Epson EcoTank ET-2988 — and the cost comparison may surprise you. This isn’t about brand bashing. It’s about consumer ownership, control, and understanding the long-term cost of the devices we bring into our homes and businesses. If you’ve ever been frustrated by printer subscriptions, firmware lockouts, or rising ink costs, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

    The Real Problems With AI Glasses (What No One Likes to Admit) #774

    Welcome to The Gadget Professor Show #774 hosted by Don Baine. AI glasses are everywhere right now. They were a major focus at CES, they’re all over tech headlines, and they’re being marketed as the next big leap beyond the smartphone. We’re told they’ll give us hands-free AI, real-time information, instant translations, and a smarter way to interact with the world around us — all from something you simply wear on your face. But after spending real time with AI glasses, testing them in everyday situations, and cutting through the marketing claims, it becomes clear that there’s another side to this story. Today’s AI glasses are impressive — but they also come with real compromises. Battery life, comfort, privacy concerns, social acceptance, and even how useful the AI actually is in day-to-day life are all issues that don’t get talked about enough. In this episode, we’re going to take an honest look at the shortcomings of AI glasses as they exist today. Not to dismiss the technology — because the future is clearly headed in this direction — but to understand where the gaps still are, and what needs to change before AI glasses truly go mainstream. If you’re thinking about buying a pair, if you’re curious about where wearable AI is headed, or if you just want a clear, no-hype perspective from someone who’s been testing technology for decades, this is an episode you won’t want to miss. I’m Don Baine — this is The Gadget Professor Show — and let’s take a closer look at the real problems with AI glasses. If you want real-world insight, hands-on analysis, and a clear look at which technologies actually matter, you’re in the right place. Let’s get started.
