So, are schools expected to teach kids how to wipe their ass because they might have dumbfuck parents? Are you seriously expecting the school to teach every fucking basic things of life because bad parenting is a thing? Giving these kids a few hours of forced break from their phone is actually the best thing a school can do.
School is not social services and it does not replace a family.
Do you have any idea what a teacher’s job is? Stupidly, and I mean really stupidly underpaid jobs where you work twice the hours you get paid and have to deal with tons of entitled idiots, kids and adults, who, like you expect school to take care of everything. Schools teaches kids a lot of things, read, write, maths, geo, etc., but it can’t replace parents. I use to teach in high school, long ago, never fucking again. You want schools to do more? Start paying teacher like you pay doctor, lawyer, dentist or even construction workers and then we’ll talk.

I’m on ml, it’s actually quite nice shitposting and linux memes. I think this is mostly true for the insufferable assholes at hexbear. Just block them.
TIL. Being canadian and having see a few of these gorgeous animal, that’s still really news to me. What surprised me the most was how tall they can be.
Yes! I’m an example of this. I’ve decided to give Linux a try on my old 2012 Macbook last year, because I’ve heard so much about it on Lemmy. I played with it for a few days and realized it was the OS I’ve been dreaming of. Ended up installing Nobara on a partition of my gaming PC (with NVDIA) and cant remeber last time I’ve booted Windows. I still have to work on macOS on my M1, but I’ve install Asahi and alternate between the two. I am now convince 80,% pc user would be way more happy on Linux. I really think FOSS are now better then licence software in most case.
I’m starting to think I’m some kind of Linux Genius because I’ve installed Nobara, clicked on “yes” when it asked me if I wanna install the driver and voilà. Never had an issue except steam flickering but I really don’t care.
I know its easier than ever to dunk on how terrible reddit has gotten, but honestly? What is this? How is is safer to deliver this content to kids viewing reddit on a tablet or PC or in the app? Why even create the bs excuse?...
No need to be an asshole and no need to presume I’m stupid. My kids dont have any tablet, we monitor screen/tv time and they play with my phone from time to time. That’s enough for at least until they’re 12. Every recent study shows that kids spend way too much time staring at screen… It should be less then one hour a day, we keep it under two. I teach to young adult and this generation is litteraly addicted to their phone. Most have a 6 minutes attention spam and get anxious if they can’t look at their phone for more then 10 minutes. Lot’s of my friends kids have their own device and the parents keeps fighting with them over screen time. You do what you want, I’ll keep my way.

The problem is no other platform has that much content. Looking for an obscure scene from an old tv show? It’s probably on YouTube. Wanna know more about Brigitte Bardot’s career? Someone has a nice channel about her. The fact that the platform sucks amd his own by effing google doesn’t change that there is just so much great niche content to be discovered. Hopefully we’ll have a fully working foss alternative soon enough. I’ll gladly pay for that if the money goes back to creators.
i remember joining the fediverse all the way back in 2020, and i remember being obsessed with linux stuff like all the time.

I’m looking forward to the day people will understand we can completely ditch the GAFAM. The new web is here, fully functional, just waiting for more people to get involve. (RATM in background), We gotta take the power back!
Well that’s refreshing! Thanks for reading my reply and having an open-mind about it! I get that contemporary is not for everyone, but I think most people can be surprised if they just gave it a chance. Lot’s of great (and bad, of course) artists out there. Glad you look at Ai Weiwei’s work. If you get past first impressions and look behind the surface, you’ll see that he never does anything without a reason. Sunflower is an interesting example: it’s not a painting but 100 million (!) porcelain sunflower seeds scattered on the musuem’s floor. Each hand painted if you can believe that. Sunflower seeds are a important symbol in China, and Weiwei is a fierce critic of China’s political regime (pretty much all of his works are about it, he actually went to jail for it). I’ll let you make what you want of this but I think there’s more then meets the eye to this specific work. Cheers
