While I’d personally love to see an open color lazer printer more. (Less wasteful and more rugged)
I use a black-and-white laser printer, but if I were going to use a color laser printer, I’d like to have an open color laser printer simply because I’d like to have a printer that isn’t dumping printer tracking dots into each image I print.
To be blunt, two doesn’t seem like a lot to me.
And one of those is on the LocalLLaMA community, which is for people running LLMs locally, so it’s a pretty safe bet that they aren’t going to have any fundamental ideological problems with LLMs. If you go to [email protected], [email protected], or similar, it’d be very surprising if you found people who had an issue with generative AI.
That one kind of reminds me of when I first showed up here and was using kbin, which puts random posts in the sidebar to encourage discoverability. Both myself and another new kbin user wound up in some thread on a pawb.social community.

Hegseth told senior military leaders that he no longer wants to see “fat generals and admirals” or overweight troops in combat units.
“It’s completely unacceptable to see fat generals and admirals in the halls of the Pentagon leading commands around the country, in the world, it’s a bad look,” Hegseth said.
For people who are actually engaged in combat, okay, but usually generals are not going to be personally engaged in physical combat. If they are, things have probably gone rather wrong on other levels. Like, we’re theoretically choosing people at that level based on ability to coordinate and plan, not to look sexy on TV.
The Defense Secretary pointed to his own regimen as an example. “It all starts with physical fitness and appearance,” he said. “If the Secretary of War can do regular, hard PT [physical training], so can every member of our joint force.”
Every time I think the cringe bar cannot go lower, this administration manages it.
I’m not an advocate of smartphone bans, but necessity is the mother of invention, and I suppose that if some kids start cobbling together packet radio solutions to talk with their friends and reach the Internet, it’ll probably be an educational experience.
