Have either of you ever tried...

The trouble being that it's much less permanent for archival needs than is inks, unless the workpiece is treated with fixative.

word processing software?

word processing software?? pbbpbtpbtpbt. Oog Bored with word processors.

but it's so nice to be able to press backspace

MAYBE an allowance for mechanical typewriters.

You guys are like cavemen sticking to spears after the first bow was invented to hunt their mammoths

Or something else suitably silly

Perhaps we are. But mammoth meat is bountiful and delicious.

I don't doubt the meat, I doubt the spears

Ahhh, I prefer to erase my past errors

bury them deep

hahaha

Never think of them again

@Louis Carlos Fer word

Isn't that like renaming parks and removing monuments?

I am but a man

Implying those were mistakes

jk but srs

How long until someone shows up to represent typewriters?

They are mechanically interesting. The old school ones.

Titanium pencil?!

Elaborate please.

@Legalize photos please too

Kind of looks like the Tactile Turn.

It isn't monolithic but it's built to look that way.

Your choice of titanium, phosphorus bronze, tellurium copper, or stainless steel

My choice will be Titanium because... well, titanium.

I've heard of these.

They honestly did not really seem like they were worth it.

Ah, I used a staedtler pointer. Alvin makes one like it also.

The Gist?

Seems nice. I'd like to find one in the style of the porsche design titanium. I really like that sleek elegant look but I don't want to spend 1000 for a porsche fountain pen.

I prefer tungsten, but it's nearly impossible to work with.

Not just saying that maintain rivalry either 🤣
