"No" is the most accurate I could ever have imagined for Inkjet Printers
Not to be confused with “No.”
What about "angry robot demands ink sacrifice"?
Laser printers more accurately "bake paper so that number powder sticks to it"
Fuse number
There are two common types of laser printers. Those that have special paper that react to heat, such as receipt printers, would fit the description.
The other laser printers.. Hm, I don't think your description is accurate either. It's more that the laser electrically charges ink particles so that they jump on to a separate roller that gets rolled on to the paper.
I'm no expert though.
I am not aware of any receipt printers using lasers - thermal printers have an array of resistors that get hot when necessary. I know how a laser printer works and it is hard to explain in 12 or so words. Inkjets are way easier, you can just say "squirt squirt oops". Anyway...
I like the chemical paper because I can write on it with a hot stick.
Yeah, it's fun but the temperature needs to be correct. With rising temperature, the paper goes black, light gray, brown and then glowing orange.
"Watch as I turn this ordinary paper into pure energy!"
It's an accurate description of laser printers. The "powder" in the description are small plastic flakes (toner), and the paper is baked so that powder melts into it.
Receipt printers have no additional consumables beyond the paper. The heat itself is all the paper needs.
Wait, seriously? We use plastic for printing documents as well?
Yup, that's what toner is. Little black plastic flecks. If you break a toner cartridge and get it everywhere, try not to breathe too hard.
I thought this was a D&D alignment chart at first... And yes, Inkjet printers are chaotic evil.
I think they're lawful evil, more devils than demons.
yes because unfortunately selling printer ink at higher prices than human blood is somehow completely legal
I would say it's pretty accurate across the grid, but I'd swap HDD and ram. HDD is chaotic neutral, because it can turn into a maraca at any moment.
It's more unreliable than SSD?
absolutely.
Inkjet: uses yellow ink to dye paper.
But what if it's just black text?
Inkjet: USES YELLOW INK TO DYE PAPER
Gotta put on those invisible tracking codes.
The EFF were tracking which printers print the invisible tracking dots, but they gave up because practically all colour inkjet and laser printers do it now. https://www.eff.org/pages/list-printers-which-do-or-do-not-display-tracking-dots
HDD - Remembers numbers loudly is on point for 90s/2000s disk drives. 😂
... server/enterprise level HDDs are loud af, I swear some brands are dedicated to it.
That leaves us only with the tiny WD Red Plus (but not Red Pro), above 20TB afaik only Exos (from X21 onwards) doesn't alert the neighbours.
But in (second half-ish?) of 90s HDDs differed a lot in terms of loudness. I was one of those nerds with custom (fully home made) water loop just to achieve some level of quietness.
With those jet engine fans they are quiet by comparison lol.
Hey my inkjet with refillable tanks isn't so bad
Stage 1: Denial
Which one is it? The one I have still has an overflow/nozzle cleaning sponge that bricks the printer when it's full
Oh yeah that whole thing is fucking stupid but bypassable depending on model
So you need to hack it and violate warranty to make it work? And this is just fine? On a product you paid for?
Yeah will see what I can do once it starts complaining
HP will brick your shit remotely on these.
TIL printers are computer components
Needs more jpeg
FPU
🤭
Where is the tracking device for remembering numbers remotely?
That’s wifi or Bluetooth.
bottom most text
Is the FPU a reference to the Pentium FDIV bug?? What a throwback.
0.1+0.2
Now do software concepts like Bitcoin, machine learning, and blockchain.
Bitcoin: An excel spreadsheet a bunch of people agree on.
Machine Learning: Electrons in a room banging on typewriters.
Blockchain: A marketing term for linked lists.
I think you switched blockchain and bitcoin
We don't talk about bubble jet.
I love my inkjet. It's so nice to be able to do my own high quality prints for the wall and for friends.
