Schools across America are quietly admitting that screens in classrooms made students worse off and are reversing years of tech-first policies

Being able to write on them is about as useful as a white board, but I think being able to project video in a classroom is extremely useful. Also, the switch to lessons being mostly PowerPoint style presentations is great compared to just a lecture with a chalkboard. I grew up having them in classrooms since third grade, and it’s honestly hard to imagine a class that isn’t structured around them.

The Hibachi Table

Reply in thread

The one in the US is based on teppanyaki. You sit at a table with a large metal griddle while someone cooks for you in a very performative way. Usually squirting sake in your mouth and shooting fire out of onions.

I've recently turned into a blocker.

I mainly block accounts that seem like they have an agenda. Usually new accounts they post a lot about one very controversial topic. Likewise, I block accounts that are concern trolling or arguing in bad faith. There are so many bots and bad faith actors on the internet I feel like you should be blocking them because they don’t deserve our attention.
