I do not trust any of those "just show the barcode in our app!" things not to gently caress up when I'm in line and wind up holding everyone up and being really annoying, and will always print tickets Also I make photomasks for circuit boards sometimes but that's a very niche use

I read on these forums once that printing is something you do at work and immediately realized that I hated owning a printer and never went back

This week I've printed: - several drafts of a wedding speech I was giving - flight boarding passes (yeah you can use your phone but it's easy to just pull out a piece of paper) - airport fast pass (yeah you can use your phone but then you can't hand it to the Starbucks guy and claim your free hot chocolate) - multiple return labels for online orders - address labels for a bunch of thank you cards It's been a big week for the Brother

Phones are absolutely poo poo for that, but also will just fail at any critical turn (so to speak). 3D Megadoodoo has issued a correction as of 10:18 on Jun 19, 2023 |

So what I'm getting is that if I don't fly or drive or buy stuff I don't need online, I'm not really gonna need a printer. I guess the three speeches I will give in my life is something my boss can spy on. Outlines for kids drawings is a good use case though, I'm gonna hit that one when I get back to work in 3 months.

the printer, the oven and the microwave are all pretty fake. And then I didn't have an electric kettle for so long. too long

also any kind of coffee capsule machine is extremely stupid unless you gotta rush out the door, but not rush that much so that the 1 minute to make the capsule makes sense but the 6 minutes to make proper coffee doesn't

... how do you prepare meat and potatoes if you don't have an oven? Do you just deep fry it all while yelling God Bless America or something? Conveniently, microwave is really bloody useful for heating up leftovers of oven baked food without having to worry about burning them. (Also great for soups, stews, etc)

How much do you think the crew of this submersible were getting paid? The guest paid $250k each. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-65953872 quote:A submersible used to take people to view the wreck of the Titanic has gone missing in the Atlantic Ocean.

Tiggum posted:Absolutely bizarre priorities. Totally wrong about the fans, homie. AC uses way more resources. Granted occupancy design in the US often doesn't take proper heating/cooling into design consideration because everyone wants to rely on HVAC to do the heavy lifting, but my old house could be opened all the way up and was perfectly comfortable until the hottest part of summer with just the ceiling fans blowing. In the wintertime using the woodburning stove you can throw those ceiling fans in reverse and help circulate the hot air from around the stove.

You need a printer for stuff for your big conspiracy board. Lots of red twine and pins, also. We all have one of those in our house, if not more than one
