Whoa... I am an old shit who does miss her electronic typewriter that actually produced a product in real time without having to rely on cloud/blueshit connections. but okay, since you probably have not had a real time experience... it is reasonable that you don't relate. Understand... everytime I try to print post op instructions at work, my computer can't figure out what printer to send it to so I have to select one out of like 30 printers it lists. This is not convenient nor helpful.
I fixed my mom's mechanical typewriter when I was twelve, when I was fifteen I released a couple of issues of a punk fanzine that I typed up on my mom's IBM electric typewriter. My mom was a secretary in the days of Madmen, she learned to use words processors and printers. But this woman would phone IT when her typewriter wasn't working, in 3005 this was not my problem.
