    Nah, we’re not saying we never print anything. School & work are the main reasons you’ll need a printer. However, the thing is nobody needs to print consistently. Even on a whole family of seven I’ve lived in, I doubt we printed more than 5 or 10 papers per month, and that was maximum. Not to mention we live in a place where it takes 30-45 minutes to go to a school (and libraries? They don’t exist lmao) and print shops are expensive.

    The fact of the matter is the usefulness of a printer is is mainly due to being able to keep it around to print on demand for essentially free (how many times have you used up all the ink in the cartridge, really?) Nobody can ever predict whenever they need to print, it just happens. The second you attach it to an overpriced subscription service where the public will absolutely not use all of their “monthly papers” is when they all leave your brand like birds in the winter, and especially if they live somewhere more fortunate than we do, just go to your local school or library.

    What kind of demented toddler would even buy a printer attached to a subscription service? Printing is the definition of a thing that you do so sporadically and randomly it’s almost questionable to even get one. If you have some kind of cheap printing shop, school, or library super close by to you, then it’s not even a competition. The whole reason people buy printers and ink cartridges is so they can print something on demand at any time for essentially free (besides the odd time you might need another cartridge, which is even rarer to happen).

    If someone buys a freaking “printer subscription month”, I guarantee, they’ll print one, MAYBE two papers, and not use the rest of it. Then repeat the cycle every time you need to print. $15 well spent, huh?

    This! The reason milk isn’t “socially acceptable” to drink around in public is because milk isn’t really something that is commonly in a portable form factor. If you see someone drinking a milk carton in public it’s no different than seeing someone drink a juice box or a can of soda, or a can of beer. Except milk cartons aren’t really too commonly available at any gas station.

    It seems weirder when you say “A harmful poison that causes a slurred state and hallucinations when drunken is more socially acceptable to drink than milk”, does it? Because you can make anything sound however you want people to feel by just twisting the words around.



  • I tried. I have very peculiar needs, I’m not joking when I say I use shitty old programs from before the millennium AT LEAST EVERY WEEK. Very specific niches that I have found no solutions for on Linux.

    Essentially, I need Windows for it’s main selling point. Insane compatibility on software from every field. And until Linux can actually RIVAL windows instead of presenting Fisher price alternatives, I’m forced to stay with the shackles of blasphemy.

    I’ve tried it in the past. The actual UI and the general process of doing things was the least of my issues. I’m not loyal to Windows or anything at all, I can easily get used to that.


  • Oh god, this meme. It’s not something I’ve ever seen before, but it’s so true.

    God, Tor, freaking Tor. Bless it’s heart, really, but it’s practically unusable. At least for me. I was really getting into it, trying to use it as a daily browser, ran with so much less ram than all the others. But it’s practically unusable! All the shitty websites I had to go on daily for School practically didn’t work, and half the websites would always take at least 10-15 minutes to get working because they keep thinking I’m a hacker. Or it’s just region blocked, and I have to spend SO MUCH TIME making new connections in the hopes it doesn’t go to a single blacklisted country. Sometimes even with a phone there to authenticate, it just doesn’t work. So I had Firefox anyway, it was literally what Tor was built off of. And because of how unbelievably inconvenient and annoying Tor (Or more accurately, how shitty the Internet in general has got, I really wouldn’t mind logging in to every website every time, with a phone authentication every so often) was, I ended up just using Firefox and using Tor for dark web stuff. Essentially, what it’s supposed to be used for.

    Linux…man, Linux was always one of those things I wanted to get into, but thinking critically, it would be very dumb for me to do. Almost every single thing I do is required by a Windows app. Critical and niche shit, mind you. So essentially, it’d be the Tor situation all over again. I’d be doing effectively everything worthless on Linux while molesting my computer for a VM for windows, which I would be doing on a daily basis for practically as long as I use the computer. So I’m practically stuck being a normie. I try to do everything I can to stop all these companies and shit tracking me and have my machine running faster, like running scripts to debloat windows, but in the end, it doesn’t amount to too much. I’m stuck a normie, no matter how much of a poser I act.
