[Louis Rossmann] Brother turns heel & becomes anti-consumer printer company
-
This kinda shit makes me glad I don't own a printer.
-
Go with a bottle printer, or at least a laser. Cartridges suck, literally.
-
Now i had to put on the in-ears, hook up to phone to.... listen to a guy talking. -_-
-
ensure that your printer doesn't produce toxic aerosols or fumes
But they do? I literally got sick after i spent a day in a small room with a big office printer. And each printer makes my skin itchy, if printing in close proximity.
-
Just print it, roll some ink on it and slap a sheet of paper on top. There you go, printing 2.0 or something.
-
2D printers used to be like this.
They all worked with open, universal drivers, no additional software, and any ink cartridge that fit inside the bay.
But then companies figured out that people will just buy the cheapest printer on offer, regardless of everything else. -
That sounds like a 15th century printing press with extra steps.
-
What we actually need is to stop fucking printing.
We need a foldable A3 size e-ink reader that you can use like a folder. -
Kind of, but with less wood and a lot more micro plastics. That's how you can tell it's modern.
-
I used to have wood a lot more often, before microplastics.
-
That gives a whole new twist to "you'll own nothing and be happy"
-
Fucking hell that sums up my life surprisingly well actually.
-
I've decided that just going to a copy shop a few times a year is less hassle.
-
Inside the US, sure. That just means you don't get the cool FOSS printer.
-
Welcome to the future
-
You can still build it yourself.
-
Not sure if I got the update yet, but I'm banning my printer from accessing the internet right now.
-
Future for normies: Renting everything
Future for me: Rejecting everything, I will write in cuneiform on clay tablets before I rent a fucking HP printer.

I have a Canon color laser printer which works pretty well and doesn’t pull any of this shit. They’re probably the last one standing now.
