The owners are sketchy and they have closed source pro features (which was expected to be honest). They also don’t like criticism and ban accounts on reddit for questioning some of their practices (like why has a vulnerability PR not been merged for more than a year). I should know, they banned me from their subreddit for asking this and deleted my comment. I later found out that this was common practice with them.
Doesn’t mean their systems are not up to date, it just means that a security hole has been discovered. Hopefully, it’s patched now.
My biggest concern is them having the source.
I don’t usually get my hopes up, but yes, it is a wonderfull feelling when it happens.
Aaand you killed this meme for me.
BTW, I like porn, not quitting.
Read on the Mint forums a thread a while back, like from 2012 I think… someone had the same scanner as me and wrote to Hamrick about it, see if it’s supported. Unfortunatelly, no, it’s not… though this was a while back and maybe it’s supported now, who knows, will have to try I guess to know for sure.
In any case, VueScan has some generic drivers in it, but it’s far from that it supports every device out there. In general, it needs drivers for it to work, no different than any other scanning application.
