If you really want to be sure:
- Install some OS with a PDF viewer on a fresh PC; hook it up with a printer.
- Do _not_ give any network access to the PC: physically remove the WiFi and Bluetooth chips. Also, use a wired, non-WiFi printer.
- Print the file.
- Put the PC and the printer on a drakkar and set fire to it.

@RоryMcCune So many exciting things going on! Right now I'm working with preschoolers, focusing on assignments that I actually like in school and am having a pretty great social life with the significant other

@RоryMcCune and you?

Rоry McCune

@Kisunminttu nice! Yeah busy with work and last week we had an awesome trip to a highland wildlife park where we were keepers for a day and did stuff like feed Polar bears and tigers :)

Kisunminttu

@RоryMcCune How did your expectations match reality on that experience?

Rоry McCune

@Kisunminttu hmm well it's quite hard work, and I hadn't quite twigged that carnivores need to get fed lots of dead animals, but overall it was better than I expected

Kisunminttu

@RоryMcCune That picture brought a big smile on my face!

Rоry McCune

@Kisunminttu who knew that polar bears love Cod Liver oil (which is what we're feeding them there)

@RоryMcCune How do you feel about the relationship between animals and human beings in this kind of setting?

@RоryMcCune Kind of explains why Finns use it a lot, too...

Rоry McCune

@Kisunminttu hmm well the keepers love what they do, and the animals seem to like them, but they have a healthy respect for the fact that some of the animals would eat them given a chance.

the keepers are extremely careful with the bigger predators and also big hoofed animals like Elk and Bison

Kisunminttu

@RоryMcCune That sounds nice. I really think that animals in the wild should be met with respect and realistic expectations

Rоry McCune

@Kisunminttu yeah this park is a lot about putting the endangered animals back into the wild where they can but in other cases (like the tigers) they really can't 'cause of things like poachers :(

Kisunminttu

@RоryMcCune Sometimes, some things just make you think about how the world is a bad place (thinking about poaching)

Rоry McCune

@Kisunminttu yeah but then you get to hand feed a red panda and it's all ok :)

Kisunminttu

8:44 PM

@RоryMcCune Oh, in Finnish those are apparently called gold pandas

Rоry McCune

@Kisunminttu ahh... they're v.cute

Kisunminttu

@RоryMcCune I've seen youtube videos and I do agree!
