Pro Tip: If you've felt the need to start a sentence with, "I'm not a bigot", more than once in your life, you might be a bigot.
Feel free to replace the word 'bigot' with the appropriate word for any the specific forms of bigotry as appropriate.
For example you might be a racist but not a homophobe. Note, even in this case you still shouldn't start sentences with, "I'm not a homophobe"

Wow! I guess you and I have nothing to discuss regarding politics.No worries though. Plenty on the hacker side to discuss.

I get where you're coming from
But when the leader of a country does it, it is news and you have to fight it. But more important than 'fake news' is 'journalists are the enemy of the people'. That's truly something to address. -

Regarding models, I'd say any halfway modern one is ok. To me that generally means models with more than one digit :) For example lasterjet 4/5/6 are too old in my opinion. 1100, 2100 are fine. I liked the 1018 well enough that when I saw a 2nd one in a thriftstore I picked it for a spare. -

I've started watching 'A Boy and His Dog' several times but never made it very far. Not into the whole "let's look for broads to rape" thing. About the halfway point it turned less vile and I was able to make it through this time.
It always felt it was something I had to see.
Something tells me I'll never make it through the other movie I've started several times: A Clockwork Orange. Really too vile for me.

Are you in the US? In most cities I've visited, it's pretty easy to just walk into a thrifstore and pick up an HP laserjet for $10-$20. Have you checked thriftstores? Built into that reply is that HP hasn't let me down yet when it comes to support on linux. As klaatu said, "HPLIP makes that easy." -

I just found out I'm an SJW. What a great compliment.
But...I think the person who called me that did NOT mean it as a compliment.
At first I was like, "I'm not single, Jewish, or a woman. WTF are you talking about?" Then Jeeves told me it stands for 'Social Justice Warrior'. We should all aspire to earn that title.
