computerfan0,

As a school student in a school where phones are banned, I think this is a bad idea. The ban achieves 2 things for me:

  1. Making it harder to check a fact or figure quickly.
  2. Preventing me from listening to music, playing games or browsing the web uring lunch break.

It DOES NOT stop me from becoming disengaged from the class! If I’m bored, I’ll look out the window, play with a calculator or something similar. And of course the ban hasn’t stopped many students using phones anyway. Maybe phone bans don’t solve the issue of uninteresting classes after all?

computerfan0,

We don’t have those kind of calculators in the schools here. I just do the old-fashioned “input random sums and see what the calculator says”.

computerfan0,

That’s my exact experience too. My school already bans phones, but that hasn’t stopped me staring out the window or just sitting there and thinking to myself. A phone would be an improvement as I’d at least have a chance of looking up something relevant to what the teacher’s saying.

computerfan0,

Absolutely not. I love the summer and I feel far more alive when the sun’s out! Unfortunately, here in Ireland we’ve been having lots of rainy dull shite weather and not much sunshine. I wish the rainy dull shite would pass quicker.

computerfan0,

I chose the username “computerfan” because I’m a fan of computers. Soon I found a website where that username was taken, so I added my (at the time) favourite number to the end and kept it ever since.

computerfan0,

I'm currently on holidays in Lanzarote. Will be returning home on Thursday.

computerfan0,

I mostly just play games on my computer and mindlessly browse the web.

Alternatively, embrace the rain! Put on a raincoat and enjoy less crowds!

computerfan0,

I think it should be limited to thirty years at the absolute maximum. In addition, I feel as though copyright should have to be defended. If the copyright holder does not make their copyrighted work available for a certain amount of time, it should fall into public domain.

computerfan0,

I love the animations too! Glad to see a 2D Mario with an actually new style!

computerfan0,

I am too! Given that this game hardly ever gets mentioned, I never even thought that a remake could happen!

computerfan0,

And a Mother 3 localisation while we're at it!

how’s your week going, Beehaw

somewhat belated because we've been really busy again but! we have a docs page up and running, we have the email situation hopefully sorted out, and stuff is flowing again generally. things are going pretty good right now on the backend for Beehaw, i'd say, and hopefully that continues as the week progresses....

computerfan0,

Currently relaxing in an all inclusive. Will be staying here until Tuesday next week.

computerfan0,

The town nearest to me has free wifi on its main street AFAIK. Can see it being very useful for homeless people.

Pink ball in abandoned world

computerfan0,

Nearly there! Not just Kirby, but a specific game in his series.

computerfan0,

Super Mario 3D World! The last few levels of it are a major difficulty spike, but I got through them!

Now I just have to beat every level again 4 times...

computerfan0,

I'll be going to Lanzarote for 10 days in a week. Later I'm attending a summer camp for 2 and a half weeks. I also hope to visit my town's festival in between these times away.

computerfan0,

A rural part of County Monaghan, Ireland. Terrain consists almost entirely of green grassy hills which are decent enough to look at, but the weather tends to be dull and wet (although it hasn't been lately). Somewhat backwards by Irish standards, but Ireland isn't a particularly backwards country anyway.

computerfan0,

Hello! I'm also from that general area of Ireland. I do agree with you on the lack of things for young people. I've noticed a lot of the people living near me are either families with kids or middle age/elderly people, with few young singles/couples.

OpenTTD

OpenTTD is an open source simulation game based upon Transport Tycoon Deluxe

You build a transportation network using buses, trains, planes and ships to connect cities and industries. Contains a huge variety of mods called "NewGRFs", which can do anything from adding real life trains to completely overhauling the supply chain.

computerfan0,

Hello! My name is computerfan0 and I use he/they/it pronouns. I'm coming here to prepare for Reddit's third party ban. I'm from Ireland and I like computers, gaming and sometimes getting out for a walk/cycle.
