  • Why Schools Are Racing to Ban Student Phones

    Jump

  • The biggest contributing factor was 9/11. My school had 3 pay phones for 1600 students. When 9/11 happened it was chaos. Tons of teachers were letting students use their cell phones (of they had one) so kids could call their parents, and no me had a problem with anyone that had a phone pulling it out of their bag to use it. It felt like almost overnight half the school had a new cell phone that no teacher cared about.

    School shootings have just been a continuation of the fact that parents want to know their kids are okay at any given moment.

  • I don't think I've had a pacman update take longer than 10 minutes before. Sounds like OP was updating all their AUR packages too.

    Still absolutely a terrible thing to do on 10% battery life. I bet there's an AUR package for "check battery level before update" out there somewhere though.

    OPs meme is "use distro whose model is 'give users enough rope to hang themselves' " and complaining he's at the gallows

  • The real problem is your turds are exposed to open air the whole time, so the smell fucking awful the whole time.

  • I think it's against electrical code. You can have a pull string because the wires are on the ceiling which carries the same risk of getting water in it as the light itself that is also on the ceiling. A wall switch would be lower on the wall and has the risk of wet handed people coming directly in contact with it

    Sometimes you'll see those "shavers only" sockets in bathrooms, which are different from your typical wall outlets in that they have a GCFI (also called RCD), and/or a built in fuse to limit current, and have a floating ground.

    The light switch and light is likely tied to a "live loop" system which runs 230V, and has a 5 or 6 amp non-GCFI breaker on it. That is considerably more dangerous for a wet human to come in contact with.

  • The creation of Israel, and the US aided Iranian coup of 1953 both happened a couple decades before Carter.

    Those seeds were planted and had been growing for a while.

    And on your jalapeño comment: I spent 6 months sending my coworker "hola" in morning greetings until he told me that he thought "hola" was just me saying "Holler [holla] at a player [playa]". To his credit, he took German on high school. To his discredit, we had been working in Spain for 2 weeks when we had this conversation.
