Off My Chest
RULES:
I am looking for mods!
1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.
2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)
3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.
4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.
5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.
6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

Printers are like a magnet for shitty exploitative consumer practices. This is, no doubt, probably intended to make the it difficult or impossible to resell the printer.
They’ve probably got someone high up in the company that’s convinced themselves that every sale on the secondary market is money coming out of their pockets. Complete bullshit if you think about it for more than a few moments, but that’s the kind of innovative adversarial stupidity that business brained types are best at.
