We’re not the product. We’re the cows getting milked dry, and once they have taken everything they can from us, we’re discarded without a second thought.

I’ve seen reports that some banks block connections from known VPNs.

People don’t really know how their cars work either, but they are still responsible for crimes they commit with them.

Well, except for running over cyclists. They are allowed to do that.

When it does happen, it can be VERY expensive to replace the refrigerant. When my evaporator died last year, I was happy that it was under warranty, which covered the $2000 part, but I was unhappy to learn that it DIDNT cover the $3500 of refrigerant that leaked out.

He said he was going to stab people.

She decided she wanted to explore polyamory without telling me first. I probably would have been cool with it, or at least given it a shot, had we talked about it beforehand

But it IS changing everything, and not in a good way

Ok… That exactly what I said in the comment you replied to. You are just angrily agreeing with me now.

The only part that differs is that this bill preemptively takes the phone from them, even if they have a good history of using it responsibly. That’s the part I disagree with. Take the phone only when there is a history of abuse from a particular student, not all the time, every time.

Except that’s not how phones actually work in the “real” world. Adults have phones on them all the time (with very few exceptions). There aren’t “phone police” preemptively taking their phones from them during meetings. They need to learn self control, and forcing them not to have the phone available doesn’t teach that. I’m all for making them put their phone in a basket for a time period if they show they can’t control themselves, that teaches them, but it shouldn’t be the default.

Probably an unpopular opinion, but this is dumb. Schools should be teaching kids how to responsibly deal with phones instead of just banning them. They are going to have phones once they graduate and they should be learning responsible ways to integrate that in to their adult life

Have you tried OpenLogi? I’m not sure if it supports that model specifically, but it supports a lot.

If only they made mice that weren’t shit. I love their keyboards, but they do not know how to make quality mice.

All these “it escaped the lab” stories are just starting to sound like advertising now. “Ohh our AI is soooooooo good that it can figure out how to escape a lab and break in to a competitor. You should use it because it’s sooooo good!”

I love keychron keyboards. Just be aware that their experience making keyboards does NOT translate to making mice. Their mice are just horrible quality.

I’m a huge fan of Kechron for keyboards. Fantastic quality. They are shit at making mice though. Get those someplace else.

And then when the customer pushed back against his advice, he added rat poison to their order.

Nah. The people that are bought them are though.
