Holy Crap. <space>Nail’in it! <space> I think your piece is great and resourced so well, however since the blab-o-blog-o-sphere is currently on a tear piling on the techno-panic bandwagon admonishing super big tech with an any reason blood lust for anyone’s eyeballs and maybe knocking up their blog hustle compensation by a buck or so, (aka slow news day/week) the other untold story (and now I join the bloody fray) here, is when said (un-named) big tech giant got cute with this issue and produced detailed data for the vast sounding carbon footprint cost of that extra space in lurid detail. <space> But yeah, big-tech was at it again with a self-serving plan to save some electric in the server room by dissing us downstream with a carbon footprint shaming! <space> Tsk tsk and unnecessary. <space> Holy corporate stumble bunnies! <space> Obviously and needlessly I could go on but today in our neighborhood we have an air inversion and I can’t wait to go out back and shovel some more coal into my home power generator, ahhhhh the smell that refreshes. <space> So I’ve produced my big tech hate/noise for the day until that trope gets way old too. <space>

Again thank you for the most edifying documentation regarding the moving parts personal printing devices of yesteryear. <space> So nice! <space>

To all the bloggers and news(?) organizations out there, when this piling on the hate for big tech gets old, be ready to invent some more natural gas, in print of course. <space> Bye Bye. <space> . <space> . <space> . (It’s called piling on). <space>
