  • Have you ever talked to kids? Do you think just explaining it will make them voluntarily not use their phones during class? I’m not opposed to talking to them about it, in fact I do think it’s good and necessary. But you can’t assume they are just going to stop using them.

    Why do we ban smoking indoors, if people already know it’s bad and it negatively affects the people around them? Well, because most people don’t care and do it anyways. And that’s adults.

    What parents and teachers should do is give kids alternatives on their free time, like toys, books, and making them socialize, so that they learn there is more to life than screens. But in class they should be learning, and I’m sure any teacher nowadays can tell you how bad phones are for kids’ attention.








  • I use suspend-then-hibernate on my laptop (arch). It has a Nvidia graphics card, so it gives problems sometimes, but it mostly works fine.

    I set it up like that in case I disconnect the laptop, so it will hibernate before running out of battery; it will also hibernate after 16h of being suspended (to save power), but I usually turn it back on before that.

    I like suspending because my laptop has an HDD, and it is way faster to turn it back on this way.
