    Mine consides with yours, except it’s a bit more techy. We’d still need someone to grow food for everyone on the planet, and that’s where robots come in… and for everything else that is just tedious or repetitive to do. We’d also need central coordination regarding things like solar panel control, or nuclear power plant control, so a central AI will most probably dominate on all devices.

    There is no currency, we have an advanced socialist society. We don’t have polititians, we have “shamans” (people that guide the rest and keep the social piece, as well as uphold the values of the society). These people are not chosen by elections, they’re groomed from youngsters to be leaders and embedded with the values this society upholds the most. Of course, they’re carefully screened and chosen, based on certain tests that all children have to take, and scored on that (compassion and other highly valued human traits that are considered weaknesses in today’s society, leadership skills, etc.).





  • Maybe, I’ve only had experience with a few of them, not hundreds… never had any problems with the swingplate. Feeder rubbers, yes, but that’s a common problem on all printers, you just sand those down a bit and they work like new.

    These can still be pretty good if used for home printers, 30K pages without a problem, that’s a lot for home use. You could probably still get one of these for like $100 second hand. That’s not a bad deal considering how good these things are.

    Ricoh are great, but I’ve had bad experience with Xerox. Xerox used to be great, but they dropped in quality the last decade or so. Ricoh are still great though.
