I hate that everything now is a subscription service instead of buying it and do whatever you want.
I hope I'm x-posting correctly.
When I bought my house the previous owners didn't want their old printer and asked if we wanted it. I said sure, figuring if it was crap I can just get rid of it. It's a 14 year old Brother laser printer and I'm never getting rid of it. It's big, it's got no wifi, can only scan to USB or an FTP server, and (obviously) only prints in black and white. But I'll be damned if the thing doesn't just work without any fuss. You turn it on, hit print and it fucking prints. No fade lines or misprints because you haven't printed in 3 months.
My old inkjet sits in a closet now collecting dust. Fuck dealing with ink that dries up and constantly needs to be changed or cleaned.
