eegh anyway most printer problems are basically somebody chose the wrong format -- yet another symptom of US idiocy. for future reference: US only (letter) vs the whole world (A4). theyre almost the same size but US paper is dumb and bad and only good for whiping your butt

spankmeister posted:the latest innovation in wizardsecurity: just use regular locks this is almost always the right answer. electronic locks are always expensive, complex, and lovely; the only reason to use them is a massive facility with huge turnover, like a hotel where you can replace a lost magnetic key for a nickel and don't have to touch the door to invalidate the old one rather than pay $25 to install a new cylinder

At the very least you'd expect a physical override so that people don't get locked in their rooms. I mean gently caress, what if the system bugged out during a fire or something?

Every hotel I've been in has had apparently the same door lock design, where the handles are connected to the latch and the electronic lock prevents the outer handle from turning. I'm not sure who would design a lock that's even physically capable of locking the inside handle. That seems like it provides zero benefit and a whole ton of extra potential liability.

Its a lovely too tall ratio and also its some hosed up poo poo like 8.3 x 11.7 instead of the much superior letter 8.5 x 11

the aspect ratio is a fair but personal judgement. i can't say i've ever been triggered by the physical dimensions of a piece of paper

i went to paris a few years ago and at my hotel you weren't allowed to take the key outside, you had to return it when you went out then when you came back you'd just go to the desk and they'd recognize you and return the key i thought it was the most ridiculous backwards-rear end thing at the time but maybe they were on to something

it also doesn't work if someone invites a guest over, then gives the guest the key to have it copied. or just takes a high-res photograph of the key.

i legit thought it would take some serious for adobe to fail to carve out a niche for air, but then they provided more bungling than at all necessary so whatever i in fact blush to recall that i offered a friend career advice based on that thought, luckily it appears i didn't do too much harm
