  I have no idea who most of those characters are- which gives me an idea.

  What if I just made a bunch of AI generic anime characters and symbols and put those stickers on my car? The hardcore anime guys would be like, “Wait, what show is THAT from!? That looks awesome… What’s it from?” Just to passively drive a very specific type of person crazy trying to look it up.

  I always do. Feels wrong not to. Just get in the habit of ALWAYS using them and it becomes a no-brainer. It’s just a good habit to have.

  In person socialization? Is that like VR chat?

  I think it’s a legal issue, honestly. When printers first came out there was a fear that people would just print money and other illegal things, so printer firmware had to print out security identifiers on everything in yellow ink so it can be traceable. That’s also why yellow ink always goes out first, and why it complains about yellow ink when trying to only print black and white.

  If that’s law, then it could be illegal to use firmware that does not have these features, and anyone making fimware that ‘just prints’ may be held liable.

  Thus is all just an educated guess though, but seems plausible.

  I was never really social to begin with, so I just resumed being my normal introverted self.
