Right in the middle of a job, my Epson WF-7710 says that the maintenance box needs changing (!), some warning would have been too much to ask I guess... I bought a new one (Epson T6711) and, not only it wasn't full at all (greedy much?!), the printer is not recognising the new one, their own product! Printers have become such a scam 😨 #printer #RightToRepair #wasteful #Epson #ZeroWaste #PlannedObsolescence #BuiltInObsolescence #PrematureObsolescence

You could search high and low for that M.2 SSD that fits in your laptop's WWAN port and pay a lot because it is an uncommon size, or...

Find a more popular size with all the components on one end and give it a pedicure.

Buy products you can work on instead of devices with #BuiltInObsolescence
