| Figured out a way to extend laser toner life
My laser printer was running out of toner and getting faint, with some parts of the page faint, and others dark. I figured the toner powder inside must be stacked in some parts of the reservoir and low on other parts so I took the toner out and shook it left to right for about a minute.
It now works perfectly and I've printed another 80+ pages of a presentation due Monday.
Hopefully this helps anyone out there who has a deadline and nowhere to get toner. If you fail this, go fuck yourself.

I figured out a way to stay warm in Winter! By wearing more clothes before leaving the house, I was able to feel less cold today when getting to school.
hopefully this helps some of you who are freezing in this ugly weather.
and if you fail this, go fuck a frozen pole!

there are both positives and negatives for using ink jet vs. laser.
ie. printing photo pictures.
