Thanks for the article. It was a good read. I wish there was some way to combat misinformation, but it is flat Earth all over again. Ideas are welcome.

Yes.
24h2 will explicitly be using it by default.
The snipping tool.
Guess I’ll need to block that so users don’t accidentally send confidential information to Microsoft.
What’s to stop auto makers from putting one crappy am radio with a tinny speaker built into the dash labeled “Emergency Radio”?
Oops, I accidentally built an arr-stack and started serving all my media through my own devices.
How dare you threaten me with a good time.
Anything I use exclusively runs Linux.
Hardware I pass down runs Linux.
The family computer runs Linux.
Kids school laptops and wife laptop run Windows.
Some municipalities may charge you with operating a vehicle while intoxicated. The reason is that you clearly had the means to operate the vehicle and you did not seem to be alert while observed.
It’s good for repeating quick answers, but I found that it will not tell you if something is impossible.
It’s a different chat bot completely, but I will still leave this here.
Yeah, that is one of the big problems I was considering. Even monochrome at 300 DPI would be a problem. The imaging array and drum would need to be manufactured separately and installed as whole unit.
Good point. Most people hate printing anyway.
The magnetic read write head is going to be difficult to manufacture. The gearing will need to be 100% on point. You will either need a PCB custom made for your project or you will need to program an Arduino or pi to perform the tape backup. Your OS will need software to manage the data transfer.
You can store 30tb on tape for well under $100. It’s the magnetic tape itself that costs.
You could buy a used tape drive and cassette for less than the cost of a HDD of the same capacity.
Tape storage is slow and finicky. Retrieving is even slower due to seek time.
You are right. I think I rubber-ducked myself to the same conclusion.
I am wondering why there is no open framework for laser printing.
There are a few parts that would have to be made out of sheet metal. The sides could be stamped for the same pattern. You then need a back and a cross section. One could theoretically make them from ABS, but ABS gets brittle with heat and the sides will shatter.
One side of the printer is dedicated to running an ARM SOC. I’m not sure if the Arduino is up to the task, but it will need to control 3 motors, initiate a heating sequence, start a rasterizing laser, interpret a print job, communicate over network and USB, and monitor a bunch of sensors.
The hardest parts will be obtaining print cartridges, rollers, and fusers. Designing a standard to run off a certain vendor’s hardware will be a pile of issues, and nobody will just start manufacturing hardware for a handful of hobbyist printers.
Everything else is 3d printing, springs, and screws.
Thanks so much!
I love the gradients. Can you send / share that wallpaper?
I would love to own one, but the investment is too great right now. All I want is something repairable that will drive, have cool air, and play music over Bluetooth.
