    Because I need to print at home, that’s why it exists.

    What an ignorant take. There are people who’s life functions differently than yours.

    I just replaced my 1996 Lexmark laser. I don’t recall ever replacing the toner, perhaps once. It just worked, for 27 years, and I can probably fix it.

    I now have a newer wifi b/w laser. Why should I go somewhere to print something? It would take a minimum of 30 minutes to do so, and cost $2-$3. My time is worth more than wasting it on getting something printed.

    And wtf is hikki-whatever?
