Texts on computers is made this way, so use a magnifying glass on black white text in a word document (for example) and you'll see lots of colors. zoom in using the computer and you will still just see black/white.

So that's why I can't print greyscale documents when my yellow ink is too low!

Ha ha nah thats because all (color) printers also print a unique pattern with yellow, so that anything from your printer can be traced back to it

Can plz anyone find a link (am at home with wrecked right arm)?

[–] sukhmel@programming.dev 2 points 4 months ago

Yeah, that was the point of the joke

But you're right, better leave a link, the more people know, the better
