I doubt the data from the students is valuable. Getting them used to being tracked 24/7 is far more valuable.
Quoted for truth. Additionally, getting students used to using only "cloud-based" services and not relying on their own tinkering will keep them locked into this ecosystem.
Man, I am so glad I'm not a student in today's school systems.
Can we patent geobitcoins? Let's use as a catchphrase, "Shave and a haircut, two bitcoins!" (Obviously, would have been more applicable in 2011 or before.) In fact, let's go with GeoBitCoinCaching (GBCC) and GBNU, Geocaching Blockchain is Not Unix!
I use Cinnamon, on Fedora. I appreciate the effort the Cinnamon team puts into the DE. I use xfce on the less-than-heavyweight systems, and Cinnamon where I can. If Cinnamon gets improvements that let it run everywhere, I'm okay with that!
I look forward to trying the new Cinnamon version!
Likewise. I can also spend hours "surfing" Wikipedia
Same here. My first set of physical encyclopedias where magic to me. I could look up anything, even forbidden subjects. So many times I just grabbed a random one off the shelf to see what was in it.
I'm the same with Wikipedia and its random link. It's just magic. Just click it and learn something new. An its all linked together. One article leads to another. I have to be careful or I can spend hours just randomly wondering from one to the next.
Me three. Encyclopedias were fascinating books. If I ever got off the Internet, I'd go read encyclopedias again. When I was on a weekend trip and without internet, the rented space had a full encyclopedia set from the early 1960s! Everyone else watched tv or played board games, and I looked up gene theory before Watson and Crick's seminal discovery of DNA.
I used the old method of swapping in command.exe as sethc.exe from some bootable medium, and then booting back to windows. Ta-da! Ownage of the administrator account.
It took me a while to find it, but it was Slashdot that pointed to a good article last month: https://bsd.slashdot.org/story... links to https://www.csoonline.com/arti.... The author supposed that BSD will survive, but not necessarily FreeBSD. My thought: maybe this gigantic publication will further propel them down a course of ruin, if it doesn't indicate their status on that course already.
So, doing legal things, transferring money in small amounts, can get you in trouble? No wonder people hate banks, the financial system, and the government. Maybe it's time to reboot this government... ~300 years is a good historical average lifespan of a democracy (pure, or democratic republic, or otherwise).
Safety tips from a German: Make sure the jobs are safe, the pride in your country is healthy, and there's no scapegoat group, nor a feel that one is needed. And don't elect somebody who is good at rhetorics and tells you he'll make you great again, but has fucked-up plans. (That's precisely what Hitler did.)
Well, at least for now the President is hardly silver-tongued.
Sorry you were exposed to the raw elitism in a *nix community. I know that our GNU/Linux communities can get pretty damn elitist too. See, even I'm doing it with the "GNU."

I misread that as "the shrew's 'digital strategy.'"

Hm, I have reservations about this probe-- sounds familiar
Slashdot: If it's old news, they'll be the first to bring it to you!
Have you tried social engineering?

Feed a computer algorithm millions of pictures of people, as diverse as possible, and let it then generate what the average human looks like.
Oh, crap! Sending Tay to the stars to represent us. That's a humorous short story right there.
Happy April Fools, slashdot peeps!
Someone must have "left a few of these "Things" somewhere in the building:

Brings new meaning to the expression, "Internet of Things," doesn't it?

A cheap mechancial watch can lose 5 minutes a day and it wasn't the end of the world.
Yes, but the Doomsday Clock could lose 5 minutes and it would be the end of the world!

It's funny how people try to stitch negativity into everything they say
Only on some threads here.
Stop being so cross! Man, I saw this issue looming, because you just couldn't help weaving in that comment.
Ditto. No Windows 10 in my house. Windows 10 made me a user of Linux on the Desktop.

Great! Now I can rip my LPs!

MS recently rewrote Skype to run on ReactXP.

ReactXP? That sounds cool. Maybe that's a variant of ReactOS that targets Windows XP.
What's that? It's MS's fork of React Native.

Rats. Well, it was a good thought.
Good luck figuring out which grammar corrections are incorrect or sarcastic (and incorrect).
That depends. Are you a computer?
