yeah, it would have been nice to print a message from uptime kuma or gotify about downtime, ups logs. this way an archive of the events would have been on paper ๐Ÿ˜€

The first smaller camera I've heard of from the internet is the Gameboy camera. I also never used a small printer, if only I have one, but that'll wait.

Danger!

Thermal printers use paper coated with a substance that is toxic very bad for your health. Likewise with most receipts in stores. Do a little research before letting your kid spend too much time handling the paper.

Tiny thermal printer is a lot of fun โ€” My daughter just turned 8, and one of her birthday gifts was a tiny thermal printer - the kind that spits out little notes, stickers and Sudokus with no ink, just magic. She loved it ... for about a day. Now I'm the one using it constantly for a lot of stuff. The full post and some photos are available on [gemini link]
