This is great! I am currently thinking about getting a weekend paper newspaper like FT weekend. Reason being: I read news on my phone too often. And the news create negative emotion without being useful. News on paper and only once per week would make me more relaxed. His paper printer news daily would be great to bridge the gap in between!

On a side node: I love the dot matrix printer! Is there any hackable open source printer like this available?

I cannot recommend FT. I tried to get their physical paper, never got one and although I made 3 calls and wrote about 10 mails to them they only would escalate my ticket after I unsubscribed and demanded a refund, this was after 3 weeks and a lot of time on my side.

That is why I am also super interested in just printing news from the net for myself, so I do not need to keep watching on a screen.

Are you in the UK and within some short distance of civilisation? If so, you very likely have a newsagent near by you and there's a surprisingly good chance they still do a paper delivery round.

Obviously if you're in a hut up a mountain or live in Norfolk then this may be less useful advice for you.

Ah yes. Filling newspapers with petty leaflets of spam the night before and then having to get up at 6am in the cold rain to get lost cycling around an estate block smelling smells of god knows what only to be paid less than minimum wage. what fun times.

At least I could then afford to buy a packet of cigs, and then upsell them to the chavs for a higher price...
