[14:36] <cmaloney> morning
[14:37] <rick_h> party
[14:45] <cmaloney> How's the day so far?
[14:45] <cmaloney> BTW: I hadn't seen that kickstarter for the roadie 2. That looks really cool
[14:46] <cmaloney> would have been great for my high-school band "Blackat Chiquita"
[14:46] <cmaloney> seemed the guitarist was constantly tuning his guitar
[14:47] <rick_h> yea, it seemed like a cool project. kickstarter, where one day you get in the mail something you forgot you thought was neat the year before ;)
[14:48] <rick_h> the day is ok, instead of monday after holiday it's the tues after wheeee
[14:48] <cmaloney> Heh
[14:48] <cmaloney> Took a day off to recouperate?
[14:48] <rick_h> naw, recoup day was sunday
[14:49] <cmaloney> ah
[14:49] <rick_h> and spent that mountain biking out by AA, wooo
[14:49] <cmaloney> nice!
[14:49] <cmaloney> Your leg treating you better now?
[14:50] <rick_h> yea, it's getting there. Still can't do everything and have issues but hey, I walked miles and miles at 4 theme parks last week
[14:50] <rick_h> so it's functional
[14:50] <rick_h> ty motrin!
[14:50] <cmaloney> nice!
[14:51] <cmaloney> I didn't even connect that, but yeah, that's awesome
[14:51] <rick_h> yea, still can't go bowling or do a bunch of stuff but can have some fun between now and april when all the restrictions come off
[15:19] <cmaloney> nice
[15:20] <jrwren> where out by AA?
[15:21] <rick_h> jrwren: yea, I rode with @bigmaninjapan sunday out at the dte foundation trails
[15:21] <rick_h> where he crushed me lol
[15:21] <jrwren> yeah, I'm afraid to ride with him. no way I can keep up.
[15:21] <jrwren> i'm a very slow rider.
[15:22] <rick_h> I kept up on the downhills fine
[15:22] <rick_h> but the uphills he was gone
[15:22] <jrwren> i can't keep up on flat.
[15:22] <rick_h> but was still fun. I helped him regulate his breaks :P
[15:30] <cmaloney> heh
[21:26] <Scary_Guy> what's a good DRM free all in one printer?  my google-fu is failing me
[21:34] <cmaloney> DRM-free?
[21:36] <Scary_Guy> as in not crippled and annoying
[21:38] <cmaloney> Build your own ? :)
[21:40] <Scary_Guy> I meant a good printer
[21:41] <cmaloney> Right, but "DRM-free" is kind of tricky
[21:41] <cmaloney> since they all have that dippy yellow-dot marking (color printers)
[21:41] <cmaloney> Honestly I'd get a Brother all-in-one laser printer
[21:41] <cmaloney> We have the MFC-8480DN
[21:42] <cmaloney> It's been pretty solid. I've even replaced the fuser on it
[21:42] <cmaloney> Only downside is the OS that's baked in to the printer is a little daffy
[21:42] <Scary_Guy> and it's also huge
[21:42] <Scary_Guy> I mean huge for Brother printers that is
[21:43]  * rick_h still rocks the old 1320N laserjet
[21:43] <Scary_Guy> We've got a HL-L2380DW in the basement, Brother is a great company in general it seems
[21:44] <jrwren> I have that exact model and I like it.
[21:45] <Scary_Guy> but I'm dead set on something without DRM.  tracking dots are just annoying and useless if you get it second hand
[21:52] <jrwren> i don't even know what DRM means in a printer.
[22:02] <brousch> non-generic inks
[22:03] <jrwren> oh! the replacement carts?  ugh.
[22:41] <Scary_Guy> well that and being able to print B/W when color is out is a nice feature too
[23:44] <cmaloney> just get a laser printer.
[23:44] <cmaloney> screw color
[23:45] <cmaloney> Though Inkjets have gotten much better in speed
[23:45] <cmaloney> but if you do any serious printing you'll blow through an ink cartridge worse than ammo at a shooting range
[23:46] <greg-g> +1 to laser. This old trusty Brother I got second hand is doing great.
[23:46] <greg-g> laser b+w, that is
[23:47] <cmaloney> Yeah, color laser is still pretty expensive
[23:47] <cmaloney> and the carts don't have the capacity they should
