Hot paper, hotter comments
Gallery of wonderful drawings our little thermal printer received
Cute internet printer sparks art frenzy, memes, and a SFW vs NSFW showdown
TLDR: A tiny internet-connected printer posted a fan-made art gallery and promptly got flooded, sparking a debate over whether submissions are safe for work. Commenters joked about meme spam, shared live and archived links, and argued over downvotes—proof that even cute gadgets ignite big feelings online.
Good Enough’s tiny thermal printer went full internet famous, showing off a gallery of community doodles—think robot self-portraits from Rene, hearts, and quirky sketches from Charmaine, Florian, Kabir, and more. But the comments became the main show. One joker asked about the “dickbutt/day rate,” predicting meme chaos. Another sparked a mini-moral panic: is this SFW (safe for work) or NSFW (not safe for work)? Downvotes flew, feelings flared.
Then the site got the classic hug-of-death—too much love, not enough server—and the crowd split into watchers and rescuers. A helpful parent-type shared the live feed so you can see prints roll out in real time: guestbook.goodenough.us/thanks. Others dropped an archive link for when the site collapsed: Wayback. A veteran linked a 2023 thread on this very printer, proving this isn’t their first rodeo: HN. Meanwhile, meta-drama brewed as one commenter scolded, “Hackernews is becoming more like Reddit,” which only invited, well, Reddit-level reactions. Verdict from the crowd: adorable project, unpredictable submissions, and a front-row seat to the internet’s favorite pastime—arguing while watching little paper strips. Even Rafael and the emoticon artist (.❛ ᴗ ❛.) joined in, turning the feed into a tiny zine printing in real time. Wholesome chaos, basically, online.
