EPSON M3170 4-in-1 Multi-Function Printer
I’m going to be honest here. I dread printers. These machines are a hassle setting up, and based on my previous experiences, printer setups usually mean ink spills and a lot of software installations on my laptop. WIth its non-spill ink refills and Ecotank system, the EPSON ET-M3170 is a 4-in-1 Multi-Function Printer (MFP) capable of printing, copying, scanning, and fax with an automatic document feeder. But does it fix my printer issues?

World Of Warcraft Classic
World of Warcraft (WoW) revolutionized the massively multiplayer online role playing game (MMORPG) on its release on November 23, 2004. Many people sunk not only hours, but days and even years into the game (including me). As the game went on and started releasing expansions adding content to the game, many players were frustrated with the direction of the game. They felt that Blizzard ignored the player base and made decisions without their input. As a result, private servers (usually fan-made and ran by fans who hosted servers of unauthorized WoW expansions) started popping up all over the place.

Coffee With Max Javelino
It was Monday in one of the less busy cafes along Katipunan—college town. There was the usual clamor of slow weekday service— the waiting staff calling out orders, silverware clinking into china as diners slice into their all-day breakfasts, the casual click-clacking of the omnipresent MacBooks. In the tepid rhythm of grinding coffee beans and steaming milk, sits Max Javelino.
