- recursivegirth 4mo agoSome poor roofer is working 14 hour days in this ungodly heatwave. Burning CD's sounds like a pretty sweet gig.
- boca_honey 4mo agoSome poor underage girl has been trafficked in the Philippines since she can remember, and it is the only life she will ever know. Roofing 14 hours a day sounds like a pretty sweet gig. (See? Suffering is not a competition).

- numpad0 4mo agoThere are fully automated disc burner bots. EPSON models take 100 discs at once and burn up to 30 discs per hour, so 1000 discs is just 10 magazine load/unloads or <1.5 days in machine time. 1: https://epson.com/Support/Other-Products/Discproducers/Epson-Discproducer-Autoprinter-PP-100AP/s/SPT_C11CA93001 https://epson.com/Support/Other-Products/Discproducers/Epson...
- StilesCrisis 4mo agoThat isn't a burner at all. It prints labels onto CDs.
- numpad0 4mo ago...no? It does both. Load fresh discs from magazine, put onto an internal disc drive, let a connected PC burn it, take out, print on it, and move it to a burned disc holder. All in one box. The networked model does it over LAN like a laser printer.
- StilesCrisis 4mo agoSuch models do exist but the one you linked lacks a burner entirely. https://tapeandmedia.com/Epson_DiscProducer_autoprinter_PP_100.asp https://tapeandmedia.com/Epson_DiscProducer_autoprinter_PP_1... "Epson Discproducer PP-100AP Autoprinter for CD/DVD/Blu-Ray Disc (prints only - does not duplicate disc)"
- numpad0 4mo agooof. looks like I linked to a special printing only variant out of dozen or so models. My apologies...
- StilesCrisis 4mo agoAll the same, they don't need a thousand copies of one GitHub repo. They need a thousand different copies of various unrelated repos. Maybe some disc duplicators can handle that without constant user involvement, but all the ones I've worked with are designed around mass replication of one individual ISO.
