I&#39;ve already had this total apathy towards anything new in the tech for a long time now and constantly having everything I depend on even slightly pull moves like this just feels like one never ending slap in the face.<br/><br/>I had trouble quantifying what makes working on retro tech so satisfying, but it&#39;s just the whole aspect of it being dependable with no constant negative surprises and betrayals. 2026-05-16T14:26:27+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsrzjqcpfssehxt8q4xnfx56mskna9rmwaqdhamedlnk3udqxd3mmczyzugj4jnksge0zseh2zrxja68rmkxdvhnx8c6420l6zc3xlykfplwy7l2f6 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs92zppqp3jcmduyrnmtdnsxy9em9ygn0n3p0we878u9qm988u6udq7mss94'>nevent1q…ss94</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>One thing I really appreciate is the speed of current era printers.
