  • What happens when a school bans smartphones? A complete transformation | US education | The Guardian

  • Apple screen time parental Controls were created because third party software was using MDM which Apple didn’t like. If Apple can lock down a phone with mdm for companies to give to their employees why exactly do you think software built into the OS is easy to get around like net nanny?

    Googling found an article about getting around it.

    Nothing on there an 8 year old would do and there’s directions on how to prevent any of it. You can lock down changing system settings or even stop them from editing their contacts.

  • No, they literally can’t be bypassed unless they figure out the passcode. Parental controls on iOS are part of the OS, not like the easily bypassed software you would install on a computer.

  • We got an iPhone for my niece who is 8. It’s locked down so all she can do is text, call, and take pictures/video and she can’t contact anyone not in her contacts list. She has some games but can’t use them for more than an hour per day and they won’t open during school hours.

    A big issue is parents not bothering to learn how to use and set up parental controls.

  • 'It hasn't delivered': The spectacular failure of self-checkout technology

    Jump

  • Most self checkouts in the US work fine for me too. The only issue I ever have is when stores have the weight sensor in the bagging area turned on and it does the stupid unexpected item in bagging area crap. There is one model that I won’t touch when I see it though because it was slow as hell even when it was new.

    Jump

  • There are many people who can’t grasp anything technology related. I’ve seen people tapping a can against the scanner instead of scanning the barcode and getting mad it didn’t work. UIs on most self checkouts these days are the same with different branding and they work well.

    It is impossible to make something everyone can use when people let their brains shut off any time they have to use a machine.

  • Is it time for 6G already? Traffic analysis says yep

  • Every "unlimited" mobile plan I've heard of has fine print that says it slows to a crawl after some amount. I don't know if the real limits are different in practice, so I was asking about that.

    These days you just get “deprioritized” instead of a hard throttle on most unlimited plans after reaching the amount. Deprioritized means the network treats your data as less important so if the tower gets congested it’ll slow down otherwise it’s still full speed.

  • I was going by sorting tldlist by renewal price but I see now the price doesn’t match. .link is cheap to renew.

  • What happens to my instance if my domain expires?

    Jump

  • I would spend the money on a domain. There’s lots of new TLDs to choose from and some are cheap. A .stream domain is $3.99 at namesilo as is .link.

  • Are shops in the US usually this run down looking?

  • Looks like a normal grocery store to me. If you want run down looking you should see what family dollar stores look like.
