  • I also like the wide range of sources to pull down content and have it available vs sometimes having to wrestle with a streaming site in the moment.

    Do neurotypicals really not have to do this? I'm seriously asking.
  • Are you me? Seriously, I have been slowly migrating my windows primary machine to a Mint system. I bought my first M.2 NVME and am loving the responsiveness.

    The drives coming out of there are going to my file server, which is all the components I was using before the upgrade.

  • It's fine. Just always be present. 100% of the time. Always be aware of what you are doing, what you need to do, and what you are doing next. Don't forget to be thinking about what is happening today. Also, keep in mind what is happening next week.

    Pretty sure I forgot to take my stomach pill today. The same pill I take every morning, for about 7 years.

    Oops.

  • The idea is pretty ironic. If one was patient enough, they could design a CAD machine that would write out their prints. I believe I had seen them before. The problems with that machine are speed and efficiency.

  • None taken! I have already moved on to laser printers. It is literally one less problem in my house. I can't imagine freaking out and trying to get just a few more pages from my printer, but I was there once.

  • The real cost of an inkjet is that one needs to buy ink regardless of whether they print. It tends to dry out over a few months. If you don't happen to use all the 100-200 pages, the money is wasted.

    In the past, just because the printer was on sale, I have been able to buy a cheap printer for less than new ink.

    I bought a brother a couple of years ago for just under $200. That was the cost of 4 sets of ink. I have replaced the toner a couple of times at $17 each. Each replacement has lasted me a few thousand pages.

    This was a replacement to a pair of brother printers of the same model I obtained via yard sale for a total cost of $10. These yard sale printers would have lasted longer if not for small children and dogs.

    I have probably printed 6k pages for the cost of $180 over the course of several years. Most of the printing has been school work for kids and forms in general.

    So... are Lemmy users also generally crypto supporters?
  • I was interested in the beginning, but after the initial hype it just seemed to be a lot of people running scams. I'm sad I didn't gather a bunch early on, but I only would have sold it in/by 2020. I didn't have any use for it but to hold it until it was profitable to sell.
