If you don't mind used, I had great luck with my Samsung L2020w, cat got some celophane stuck in it and it died (for good)
Replaced it with a Brother HL-series because they're what I used at work.
The lil guys are beasts.
I'd normally not wanna go with the "big corpo option" but for a printer without HP shenanigans its really great.
If you set up with the apps it will try to get you to subscribe to an ink subscription, this is not required.
They said nerds not "Placebo Obsessesed Rich Nerds"
Do you have a designated table you put the peanuts on?
I knew a guy years ago who managed to start trading with the crows in our neighborhood by having a table with two sections, one with bird snackies, the other empty (I think he may have put some foil there at one point?) so they'd have a place to put their payment.
The always got little plastic things, bits of mylar, twistie ties and what not.
What about Ezekiel bread? (Made from legumes, not grains)
We don't have flying cars because people are fucking dumb, and because the viable options are loud as hell.
We absolutely have the technology, and if there were a drive to make it affordable there would be more significant research into doing so.
To do a flying car, you need to simulate friction in the air, with significant enough force to prevent colision, while also maintaining low enough noise pollution to be acceptable to the average citizens. This second part is why we don't have Personal helicopters, despite aircraft being relatively affordable (in my cursory search I found two Helicopters less than 200K, one barely more than 100k, if there were significant drive to make them mainstream for the public they'd presumably be much cheaper, benefitting from economies of scale.)
Additionally, how do we as a society handle ATC for flying cars? Emergency stops? Impromptu repairs? Birds in the props‽
I'm not trying to naysay the retrofuturistic image we all want for the world. I am saying it probably shouldn't include flying cars. Especially if they're just Personal quadcopters.
I've actually got a speeduino conversion on the agenda, but the car needs a full plumb in place rewire first. Its been through like 6 owners before me, one of which let it get infested with rats so a ton of the wiring had been replaced (notice I didn't say repaired, or fixed)
The thing is a mess under the hood, I'm planning to run conduits with access loops every few feet to keep the wiring nice and clean. The end goal is California Ready but tbh I don't expect it to ever meet emissions requirements that strict with a carb instead of EFI. I guess since I'll be doing a speeduino conversion it wouldn't be that much more work yo convert to EFI, or at least mod a turbo blowby hat to accept a diesel atomizer with which to jury rig a carb into a carbuer-efi hybrid.
Idk, I'm spitballing at this point.
Guess i have work to do. Thank you 🙏
Tuned to run slightly lean with an aftermarket catalytic convertor installed.
I do my best not to destroy the environment while still maintaining a vehicle I can work on myself
Nope! Mid 70s MG, carbuereted. As far as I know it has a crank triggered ignition, ergo fully mechanical.
Edit: autocorrect assumed I no longer had this vehicle
My radio doesn't even have a screen 😅
The only computer in my car is the radio, and that stays off most of the time. I'm honestly thrilled to not have so much tech in the car. Its nice to be able to fix nearly anything with some pliers, a multi-meter, and an adjustable spanner.
In some places you can build your own. While not very popular, there are several exo-cars that can be purchased as "build your own" kits. They're a nightmare to register, because of safety regs and the difficulty in getting a VIN, but it can be done.
This is a good one to show people to get them thinking about class consciousness.
