  • Your router probably has a firewall you can set to just block all internet access to your printer's IP. You'd have to make sure you let it access the home network if you want to send files remotely to it.

    Alternatively, routers nowadays have a guest network. You may be able to disable internet access to the guest network and connect the printer to it. You would have to temporarily connect your host device to the guest network to send your files to print, which can be annoying.

  • Where are you getting that 2%?

    I assume that 2 rabies deaths in 10 years for however many organ transplants in that same period is much less than a 2% incidence. A quick google tells me that there were over 48k organ transplants in the US in 2024 alone.

  • If someone died of rabies, it would certainly be known that it was rabies. The symptoms are pretty obvious and it's not likely it would be mistaken for anything else.

    More likely, they were infected and died of some other cause before symptoms started showing, which can take as little as two weeks or potentially over a year.

  • It's not that it specifically needs to be non-potable, just that you shouldn't waste drinking/cooking to wash yourself and flush toilets when you don't know how long issues can last.

    Rain water and eavestrough runoff water is fine for flushing and cleaning, and it doesn't need to be kept in food-safe containers.

  • We may feel certain of things, but we weren't there to witness anything. We didn't see anything happen, and are only learning of the details after they've been filtered through several people. We don't know anything about motive, potential external threats, anything really. All we know is that this woman was strangled, and it is likely he did it.

  • Teslas have been the most popular EVs on the market, so it makes sense that the majority of credits went to them prior to this current bullshit. And it's not just subsidizing them, it's subsidizing the buyers as well.

    That's not to excuse the fraud or Musk in general. Subsidizing EVs was a way to replace a lot of ICE cars and put less polluting vehicles on the road, and it did that. Some of the limits for subsidies were pretty dumb though. Like you could get the rebate on a model with a lower capacity battery, but the higher capacity battery would push you out of qualification.

  • There was a period of time where a game being on CD was enough to prevent most copying. Games would read data off the disc, and some of those that didn't need to still required the disc to be in the drive.

    When CD burners became cheap enough for everyone to own, they needed new methods of DRM, like authentication, and custom burning methods that couldn't be copied the normal way.
