Just treat the debate as normal, but they just swap to the empty podium where Trump should have been.

After the debate they say Trump showed a marked improvement this time.

This is an Aristocats joke, right?

If a school provides a device to a student to take home there’s two possible outcomes.

  1. They provide a managed device, and with any management tool, there’s a way to invade privacy, intended or not.

  2. They provide an unmanaged device and get sued by parents for letting their"innocent snowflake" access unwanted content.

In both instances there’s something to legitimately complain about, but I still say the first option is the better one. The problem comes with oversight and auditing on the use of those management tools.

Not to mention that even with the second option of unmanaged devices, invasion of privacy can still occur if students are stupid enough to use the school provided accounts (Google, 365,etc)

Remember kids, if someone offers you drugs, say “yes thank you” because drugs are expensive.

Most of the time, technology just makes things happen faster, or at a larger scale.

With “AI” we’re getting both larger and faster at the same time as businesses try and cash in as quickly as possible once they find out that their “LLM” has been trained on data that means it is in permanent idiot mode, can be unlocked with a few words, hallucinates every second response (oh sorry you’re correct raspberry only has 2 R’s in it), or keeps generating completely racist images.

Capacitors replacing batteries like this, similar to nuclear fusion power, is always only X years away.

Because many people are not smart. If they buy a 65w charger and see only 60w being pulled they’ll complain that either the charger or phone is defective and want a refund.

I would like to see it as an option to enable, at the moment though I just have a few cables that measure/display this for me. It’s a useful basic troubleshooting tool with laptops and phones. If you plug them in and dont see any current or only 0.1w, you know there’s a problem with the device getting power.

While shit is a renewable resource, only so much shit can exist at any one time.

Shitpost mods need to walk a fine line of laxitives, costives, gas station sushi, big mac meals, and dilators. Sometimes they get it wrong.
