Wax uses a higher heat point to work, which is why so many people get burns when waxed. Sugar uses a much cooler heat point, so it won't burn you.

I assume that "wax", "sugar" and "heat point" have some special definitions in this context? The melting point for paraffin wax is somewhere between 40°C to 60°C, the melting point of sucrose is around 185°C.

My Brother laser printer has told me that my toner is empty three times now for the same cartridge. It eventually refuses to print, but that can be overridden with some undocumented trickery. I have manually overridden it each time, told it that I installed a brand new XL cartridge and it just keeps printing. It just told me, again, that the toner is low - I don't believe it, I'll override it again. It would have forced me to throw out at least 66% of the remaining toner if it didn't have the override.

The problem is, you and me wouldn't be superhuman. Being a broken-ass, second-rate, classic-style human in a world of superhumans would absolutely not be cool.
