Paper, pencil, pen, whiteboard and whiteboard markers are the ultimate communication technologies.

>And that's why this computer science major has a room full of manuals.

Most of which became completely useless within five years.
Good thing all the trees and freshwater wasted on the now useless manuals weren't all that important, I mean it's not like we're running short on OH WAIT...

technically paper reflects all wavelengths of light, that's why it's white.

What kind of brainlet argument is that? A computer and an internet connection are things most people would have anyway, regardless of whether they choose to read physical or digital books. The only additional cost associated with pirating books is the few extra bucks/year worth of electricity.

It's not the paper, but the tactile experience that aids in retention of information.

If we're talking about piracy then just steal paper books, then you could even sell them on.

This thread has convinced me what shall I get Laser vs Ink printer?

Is there any kind that is refillable and works on linux?

Stealing paper books is an actual crime, and it would be just as much if not more hassle than buying them.
