        The EFF were tracking which printers print the invisible tracking dots, but they gave up because practically all colour inkjet and laser printers do it now. https://www.eff.org/pages/list-printers-which-do-or-do-not-display-tracking-dots

          So you need to hack it and violate warranty to make it work? And this is just fine? On a product you paid for?

          In other words, “computes numbers incorrectly”.

          You don’t have to overthink it on a meme that describes a hard drive as “remembers numbers loudly”.
