printing is bad regardless of OS. Learn to draw and type very well and you will never need a printer, also curse everyone that forces you to use printers they should be shunned from society. We will have full digitalisation by bullying if necessary
Printers are something they've actually figured out on the last few years.
I can go somewhere I've never been, get the login for the network, and print documents from my phone without any downloading drivers, sacrificing goats or anything.
you don't know how many drains that sysadmin installed under her altar, do you?
I hooked up a 2013 printer to my new wifi network, opened a pdf on my phone, clicked "print" and selected the printer from the dropdown list. No driver installation. No special app for the printer. It just works.
ooh, did they sacrifice the goats in the factory? pretty snazzy; i haven't bought any new hardware in years, and this might just be the impetus I need to run out to microcenter.
Deferred sacrifice. They still need to be sacrificed. He just doesn’t know when.
I'm convinced they'll never figure out a practical solution to take technical drawings out to construction sites digitally (battery life, limited screen size, dirt, hazardous atmospheres, the unwillingness of my boss to pay for expensive specialized hardware ....). Other than that I'm with you.
just don't use technical drawings buildings were meant to be built not drawn, simple as.
Printers are bad under Windows because Windows supports nothing out of the box
That's simply not true anymore. Most printers work on windows locally and through a network without any special driver installations these days.
You can buy a printer, a computer, and a wifi adapter, network them together, and start printing without installing any printer utilities or additional drivers.
They've come a long way in this area.
But they aren't as good as Linux (CUPS)
