Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I didn't think anyone actually used those business centers.
You lug your own printer around on trips?
You use a printer?
What do you use, quill and ink?
How often are you printing things? I don't even own a printer. I spend maybe $0.50 a year printing things at the library.
Often enough that having a laser printer at home is vastly more convenient than having to make a special trip to the tree pulp store every time I want a physical copy of a document.
Tax forms, manuals & documentation, tickets & passes, shipping labels, markable documents, patterns ...
Those are digital
Also digital
Also digital
These are the couple times a year thing that I print. Well, not patterns. Even "markable documents" I usually do digitally with a stylus. How often are you needing to do these things at a hotel?
Physical backups are not digital. Also, worksheets are easier done with pencil.
Paper manuals are easier to flip through, dog-ear, and move around.
Paper copies of tickets don't need batteries or wireless service.
The last few times I recall that I needed to print things at a hotel, they involved marriage license forms, credit reports and checklists. Most other times I'm visiting a facility that has a printer should I need anything printed.
Oh, I've also had to print out plenty of hardcopy documents for mailing to various government services over the years, including the IRS and SSA.
