Its almost as if this looksmaxing and other social media shit is a kind of mental illness that gets worse with time. especially when they find an audience that encourages them to go even further off the deep end.
My favorite dot matrix memory is printing a like 400 page Breath of Fire 3 strategy guide on a daisy wheel dot matrix, and it took over night to print and everyone in the house complained about the constant ditditditditditditditditdit
edit: And the ribbon was so worn out that you needed forensic equipment to read it, but i persevered.
Its probably just much cheaper and easier, unless you absolutely have to have color, to go to good will and get a brother laser printer for like 10 bucks.
I got one years ago and its still on the original toner cart it came with, and I print decently often.
I wish it wasnt that way, Things should not just be repairable, they should be affordably repairable, because thats a major step towards dealing with a disposable society.
and lets face it, by the time its out of warranty and old enough to need any kind of easy repair.. the replacement parts are probably gonna cost as much as a newer, much more up to date laptop from another company.
Which is inherently the problem with repair ability in general.
I run into the same problem with cellphones.. I could replace the battery in mine and run it for another 6 years, or I could get a much newer (used) phone for the same price, and end up with a almost 100% new battery AND much better hardware.
but parts will never be made cheap enough to be reasonable and affordable, because people will just buy the parts and assemble the product themselves. So parts have to be at least as expensive as buying the new thing, if not more expensive, to discourage the act itself.
Who would have thought a more expensive, more premium product would have a hard time finding customers during a time when people are struggling to pay bills and cant even afford the non-existent dollar menu at mcdonalds anymore.
You're telling me the party that has openly admitted that they can't maintain their seats of power if elections are fair and free.. are corrupt assholes committing fraud to obtain and maintain power?
Someone get me my clutching pearls and my wringing gloves!
true, but i dont know.. feels like if your mixing your comics and your nudes on the same platform, that maybe you arent confident in your abilities and need tits to draw more attention to your art. Not a judgement, just an observation.
I would think solar would be even more efficient high up in mountains.
Colder temperatures mean they'd stay cooler, produce more power, and for longer.. and they are higher up in the air, so amount of photons hitting the panels has to be higher than at sea level, too, further increasing power generation.
At least thats what I'd assume, applying some common sense and a little educated guessing.
Wish someone would just overnight install a vast solar array on my roof. I'd love getting money from the power company every month, instead of giving it to them.
