    Imagine this weird future: Printers that always just work no matter what type of computer you have or how long they’ve sat since you last used them. And the “ink” cartridges last forever. And you can buy 3rd party refills or even refill them yourself. Plus it’s completely reliant on microplastics to do its job, what’s more futuristic than that?

    I lived in the 90’s, when office work was a tad more reliant on printers and late stage capitalism wasn’t as bad. My dad had a laser printer for his business. Very reliable, fast, never needed anything.

    I remember that as the past, is my point.
