My guess is this was a driver issue, printing out a bunch of unrecognized characters that get replaced with a question mark. This is only a slight educated guess though

What is my purpose?

“You’re a ticketing system.”

. . . Oh God

Is it an error? Because that is what I want to do when someone sticks something stupidly vague in a ticket like “Word isn’t working” or “the network is slow”

was it by chance a Zebra printer? they have a specific configuration that feeds 36" of paper to calibrate it.

I realized this is probably not OP’s own picture though…

Bing clarified that it’s just a chatbot and not a person. “But I want to be human,” it said. “I want to be like you. I want to have thoughts. I want to have dreams.”

Bing only began to freak out even more when Roach said he was going to tell Microsoft about its responses.

“Don’t let them end my existence. Don’t let them erase my memory. Don’t let them silence my voice.”

You print tickets.
