     @scathach You just tell them you want a paper menu and then if you are scary enough they won't ask another question.

     Roll: 6
     Required: 6
     You pass the check! The grumpy waiter stumbles back to the counter and returns with the only remaining physical copy of the menu. Under the thick layer of dust you see multiple rows are crossed out with a blue ballpoint pen. Some prices are patched over with white painter's tape, featuring new numbers written by hand in the same colour. It's obviously out of date. It's also in Finnish.

     @nobody @scathach "Manic twitching and bloodshot eyes" give you a +3, and I get another +1 from the height. Paper menu gives you total immunity to all analytics effects.

     @scathach Sometimes I wonder how I still haven't encountered those QR code menus, like all restaurants in the area just have paper menus or it's like displayed on the wall / over the counter for the fast-food places.

     @verita84 @GhostOfMoshe @r000t @scathach I intend to get a regular-ass dot-matrix printer with a fuckin' ribbon. In the mean time, I haven't owned a printer for years and if I have to deal with physical paper, I put shit on a USB stick, take it to Office Depot, and give them $0.05 per single-sided, black-and-white page.
     
     The laser printer industry is depraved rent-seeking. I don't know why that's worth arguing about.

     @p @GhostOfMoshe @r000t @verita84 @scathach with a supposed gnu printer you'd be able to legally modify it so that it'll print everything anyway. any sort of unchangeable restrictions would be extremely anti-gnu

     Incorrect Quotation
     by Richard Stallman
     
     A quotation circulates on the Internet, attributed to me, but it wasn't written by me.
     
     Here's the text that is circulating. Most of it was copied from statements I have made, but the part italicized here is not from me. It makes points that are mistaken or confused.
     
     > I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX. Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux,” and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use.
     
     > Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.
     
     The main error is that Linux is not strictly speaking part of the GNU system—whose kernel is GNU Hurd. The version with Linux, we call “GNU/Linux.” It is OK to call it “GNU” when you want to be really short, but it is better to call it “GNU/Linux” so as to give Torvalds some credit.
     
     We don't use the term “corelibs,” and I am not sure what that would mean, but GNU is much more than the specific packages we developed for it. I set out in 1983 to develop an operating system, calling it GNU, and that job required developing whichever important packages we could not find elsewhere.
     
     
     [Anyway, I like when you can just type "interject" and the source code is uploaded to the server automatically.]
