This kinda shit makes me glad I don't own a printer.

[–] Allero@lemmy.today 25 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

That gives a whole new twist to "you'll own nothing and be happy"

[–] frezik@midwest.social 6 points 2 hours ago

Honestly, more people should probably do that. If you have a low printing volume, you'll save a lot of money by going to a store to get prints.

Yes, you can argue that you need the convenience of having a printer right there. Just realize you're spending a lot of extra money for that convenience.

Fucking hell that sums up my life surprisingly well actually.

Future for normies: Renting/subscribing for everything

Future for me: Rejecting everything, I will write in cuneiform on clay tablets before I subscribe for a fucking HP printer.

Future for us: service bundling so you need to pay for shit services you don't need to get the few you do need.

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 hour ago

Sounds like another service to reject. Fucking try me, I will cook over a log fire if necessary just out of spite towards their bullshit.

I've decided that just going to a copy shop a few times a year is less hassle.
