There are people that find these things attractive.... But I'm not sure you want to be with them

One of my favorite comments I've ever seen on big social media was "I like a man who drives a big truck, it shows me they have money!"

Which, oh sweetie no. It shows a high probability they dont handle money well, because that thing probably has a massive loan, with some probable godawful terms attached. Most people who are doing well don't spend their money on things that lose half their value as soon as you drive it off the lot. Now if they're a literal millionaire, maybe, but the venn diagram there is a sliver of people.

It's so easy to set up, just tick a box during os install most times. Then if you do rcline just use an encrypt on top of your remote, make sure your conf is backed up, and you're golden

Read the article, the problem is that kids don't care and don't listen. Teachers asking kids to take their airpods out during class, and receiving harassment back when asking. To me the kids proved they couldn't handle it (not their fault, it's an addiction device), but the school had to step in or it wasn't doing its job

It makes sense, I really like what this principal did, and he was fully aware that kids were addicted and were going to go through a withdrawal period. I think the pouches are a good thing, they may have gotten addicted during covid, but now is the time to end that and make sure the next wave of kids don't suffer the same. I really liked the results:

Gabe Silver, another eighth-grader, echoed that sentiment. When the pouches first arrived, “everyone was miserable and no one was talking to each other,” he said. Now he can hear the difference at lunch and in the hallways. It’s louder. Students are chatting more “face to face, in person,” Gabe said. “And that’s a crucial part of growing up.”

Some students hadn’t realized how much their phones diverted their focus. Nicole Gwiazdowski, 14, followed the earlier rule not to use her cellphone in class. But even in her pocket, it was still a distraction. Her phone would buzz five to 10 times a day with notifications, she said, prompting her to take it out and check it.

Everyone is paying more attention in class these days, she said. And it turns out that being separated from your phone for the day isn’t as big a deal as some students feared.

“People thought, ‘Oh my God, I’m going to miss so much,’” Nicole said. “You don’t miss anything. Nothing important is happening outside school.”

Am I the crazy one? Millennial myself. We had cell phones and got detentions for using them in class. When did that stop being a thing? Why is this a question at all??

You're there to learn. You sneak texts between periods. If we were caught our phone was given to the principal

World leaders: constant greed, destroying the planet for short term gains, destabilizing the world, starting wars, ignoring climate change, trending more fascist and conservative, clawbacks of rights

Also world leaders: why don't you want to bring kids into this world???

Tried that once. It was not a fun route to go down. If let's encrypt ever dies it anything fine, I'll look into it again. Until then, let's encrypt all the way

Yes. People like different things. Nothing wrong with that.

I'm misogynistic and want women to be subservient to me! Why can't I find true love?!

There is something about getting a couple of friends and watching a good trainwreck

Bingo bango. Troll trying to spew anger.

Unfortunately all of them do, and if you don't give it to them they won't let you sign up
