I have a brother laser Printer which I use via IPP from my network. It can hold a bunch of pages in RAM and Print them once the other (it can Print 3 in a row) are finished.
Now what does any propriatery printing service do?
They feed ONE PAGE AT A TIME, so my printer starts printing, then it starts cooling off, but then it has to HEAT UP AGAIN FOR FUCKS SAKE, and that every time.
Also if I just print via CUPS from my Linux machine, its like 5 times faster.
And I just don’t understand how my 15€ thin client from over 20 years ago can do more and better than my 1200€ iPad.
Just a reminder why I keep using Linux.
Apple is such a frustrating company lol. In Seattle we still don’t have tap-to-pay for public transit with iPhones because Apple keeps so much control over what the NFC transceiver on their devices can be used for. You can tap-to-pay with Android devices. So I’m stuck still using my physical card.
