@paulc hah this is absolutely my doing. I was driving around San Francisco and saw the printer at this corner, and thought it would be a fun little project.
[edit: I sure did toot about the find! https://mastodon.online/@corymoll/110651655424774988]
Attached: 1 image I love finding free useful things on the sidewalk, like this HP LaserJet M209dwe. Yeah itβs an internet connected piece of shit, but itβs free and does print just fine.
@corymoll I had seen it on Mastondon but I then saw it on the MacAdmin's Slack and forgot that I saw it here first.
Glad to have you alert me that this was you. I'll edit my post.
@corymoll You are now credited on my post of your photo. Love to know that it is your story.
It is by far the most retorted and liked of mine by a mile.
My toxic trait is scooping curbside inkjets. I've gotten into arguments with my spouse about it.
"Surely", I say to myself, "this fren is just a fresh cartridge away from being a functional printer."
"I can fix him, no really I can."

"Six inkjets later . . ."
Me: "Hooookay, time to buy a Brother laser printer off eBay"
@paulc OMG, so wholesome π !! One for @restartproject and @iFixit !
