  • I don’t understand Glenn Greenwald. I first discovered him when he was writing for the Guardian in the UK. He was absolutely calling out fascist bullshit in the U.S., like deploying cops in schools. That was early 2000s I think? Then later I saw Greenwald writing about Trump in vague terms which I could not understand, except that he did not seem to be saying bad things about Trump. There was also the story of The Intercept which Greenwald founded but now seems to hate, I didn’t follow that closely enough to understand what went on. I don’t get him anymore.

    I share your frustration with printer hell. I don’t use the wifi on the Epson Ecotank.

    Previously I owned a Canon Pixma, a pre tank version. It worked great for several years, then one day it stopped working. I eventually established that the problem was that the machine was programmed to fail after a finite number of prints. It’s criminal that they prevent you from maintaining their hardware.

    I note that in the comments you acknowledge that point #1 doesn’t exist.

    I had a similar set of criteria to you. I settled on the Epson Ecotank. No complaints so far. It has wifi but I never turned that on, I connect it to my (linux) laptop with a USB cable.

    Some printers are programmed to stop working after a certain number of prints. I hope this isn’t one of them.
