And not at all offended by nipples, nudity, whatever. But then I not a Merkin...
I teleported home one night
with Ron and Syd and Meg
Ron stole Meggie's heart away
and I got Sydney's leg
I have an open Wifi setup. My attitude is that connectivity has become basic infrastructure, and all "lock it down" freaks have just bought into the agenda of ISPs who don't want us to share bandwidth to boost their own profits.
If you're a guest in my home, you're welcome to use the bandwidth, along with the lights and water. Can you imagine visitig a friend only to be told, "Look, here's the PIN code to unlock the lights, and here's the key in case you want to wash your hands." Ridiculous. I accept that there's a risk of someone lurking in their car outside the property boundary to leech off my internet connection, but there's a risk of someone stealing water from my outside, unprotected taps, too. OTOH, if bandwidth were shared freely everywhere there'd be no need to sneak around "stealing" it, would there?
It's the 21st Century, man. Get over it!
It's been at least 6 or 8 years now since I tossed the last one. Every time I bought a new cartridge for it I ended up printing maybe a page or three, and then discovering that the ink had all dried up on the next occasion I felt a need for hard-copy, usually 8 or 12 months later. I concluded that - given the ridiculous per-page cost of owning a printer - I'm better-off driving down to a local copy shop with the content on a flash stick any time I need to print stuff. My print costs now run to pennies a year, and any Yellow Dots that might or might not get printed on the page can get traced... all the way to Southcape Copies.
