Rabies kills animals in about 10 days. We have years of videos... It didn't have rabies. Since lived indoors you can also reasonably prove that it couldn't get rabies either.

You said you're using OPNSense for routing... Just keep it up to date and you'll be fine.

If you're worried about your ap, I think you can set omada APS to restart nightly.... Though I could be misremembering.

Every network manufacturer has had some CVE for something.

Good thing what I actually said was

Paying anything you can up front saves you several times over in the long run.

My point was that the advice was terrible. Not that there are other circumstances that could make it useful. Overall, as a general rule you shouldn't want to just hold onto debt for no reason if you have means to pay it down. It's also why I specifically showed 10% as well rather than just the typical 20% downpayment, it furthers my point that

you’re so much better off if you put as much into the down payment as you can.

"As much [...] as you can" And not just some 20% or whatever magic number.

For it to be ironic, there would have to be some sense of Texans doing it to themselves. People coming in from another state is not a Texan's fault. I don't see the "irony" here.

This is terrible advice. Paying anything you can up front saves you several times over in the long run.

Let's talk 500k house, 6%, 30 years, no pmi, no taxes, no extras...
Paying 100k (20%) up front you'll pay: $863,352.76
Paying 50k (10%) up front you'll pay: $971,271.85
Paying 0 up front you'll pay: $1,079,190.95

Paying 20% down (100k) will save you over 200k.

If you intend to live in the house indefinitely, you're so much better off if you put as much into the down payment as you can.

but that it’s ironic that they didn’t think through the consequences

And what part of that consequence is the native Texan's fault? If anything it simply proves their point.

the first is a lot of personal risk; the 2nd is minimal risk

This flies in the face of the article though... it expounds quite a lot that it's hard to sue for this situation at all. With the reviewing hospital doing the procedures in house quite often as they get referrals all the time.

But because the delays and discharges occurred in an area of the hospital classified as an emergency room, lawyers said that Texas law set a much higher burden of proof: “willful and wanton negligence.”

It's clearly NOT a lot of risk since the burden of proof for that lawsuit would be effectively insurmountable. To the point that the no lawyer is willing to take the case according to the article. If it's that hard to put a lawsuit together on the matter, why would a doctor be scared about conducting an abortion that was already covered as an exception to the law already? I'm not seeing it. I'm not buying the excuse.

It's not like sepsis is undocumented and unknown to the medical community. It's not hard to justify the required treatment through literal decades of medical cases that have been studied and there's specific exemptions in place for medical necessity in TX (and most[qualifier only because I have checked all] other states with a "ban"). The only way this situation make sense is if these places didn't actually have the doctor on hand/staffed and it was some other medical provider that didn't have power to actually make the decision. In which case there's a whole 'nother bag of worms of a problem that needs to be addressed. If it's not negligence on the doctor's behalf (whether that be due to laziness,ignorance,fear, whatever), it's because there wasn't a doctor at all like an RN calling the shots. But the article claims to have gone through everything and doesn't share with us, so I have to assume the former.

This smells a lot like "cops need immunity otherwise they won't investigate stuff". No... they need to do their job better.

Why are you attributing some emotion to text? Why is it that you can't answer something in context and instead just need to inflame some anti-cop nonsense when you know damn well the answer is basically "that's not happening, except in very very rare cases"?

I'm not mad, I don't give a shit. I'm just tired of seeing obvious nonsense. Claiming that you can't call 911 cause cops will be a cause of that is literally nonsense. That is the insinuation and you're furthering it.

I know you know how threads work. There is context before that post. You should read it.
