It was submitted for registration and approved in 1970, according to Diário da República (similar to Federal Register in the US): https://files.dre.pt/gratuitos/3s/1970/09/1970d210s000.pdf , page 4, line 82 of that table. Or here: https://i.imgur.com/GyKPamu.png
I'm hoping he does vhs-decode too, it's far more accessible and potentially can bring the attention to more people as this also serves many's personal purposes of having a digital master of their home tapes (and not necessarily or exclusively preserving [no longer available] commercial media.
We'd gladly trade all the distractions the client forces down our throat (stickers, trading cards, avatars and all of that stuff) for the ability to single play the games we legitimately bought. But that's not an option we have, unlike say GOG, who also doesn't support old OS but at least gives us the possibility to download the games. I'd even concede some form of DRM that doesn't involve the Steam client but naaa, "the h4x0rs will get into your XP box that you keep solely for retro gaming and shut off the world. you must upgrade, re-buy, expend!"

There's also thermal transfer printers, which use a ribbon as "ink", similar to typewritter. These labels can endure much harder conditions, like scratches, high temperatures and fade. They're used all over the industry. But these aren't usually small printers and have a high cost. At that point I think you have better solutions on printing services (I understand if you don't want to have the files outside of your environment, though.)

I also use old.reddit but I believe on the new.reddit you can limit a search to only a defined user comment. Maybe with some wildcards or regex one can get to them? Otherwise you'd need to know of a submission or a direct link to your comment.
