The Corporation Stealing Your Kid’s Lunch Money
  • Schools (and government entities in general) really need to invest on setting up their own apps and programs for things like this. So much public school money gets wasted on paying for access to buggy and poorly maintained systems.

    I work in a public school and it's so frustrating to know a company is making bank for offering a mediocre middle man app, it hurts the Schools budget, the students, and in this case the families of all those students.

  • Uzumaki (2024, dir Hiroshi Nagahama)
  • Ooooo I love that they kept it black and white & are being true to ito's style!!! It's hard animate his art & it looks like this adaptation is going to do the source material justice :D so exciting

  • Reddit blocking all major search engines, except Google
  • Libredirect is great, just added it to firefox! I can finally watch all those tiktok links people send me lol

    & for anyone else thinking of trying it, if a site won't load change your default proxy instance :)

  • 15,000 Scientists Warn Society Could 'Collapse' This Century In Dire Climate Report
  • It varies depending on location. A more accurate name would be global weirding. Some places will get wetter, some drier, some areas will get much warmer, some will have more extreme cold events.

    We might see a shift in air currents making the Sahara desert move back to being a grassland and Europe could lose much of its rainfall. Established agriculture will likely have a hard time adjusting to the new climate and could cause global food scarcity.

  • Bursting with happiness
  • Whoa it's wild that it was commissioned by a company as a way to improve staff morale after a series of mergers and acquisitions. Imagine being worried about your job in an era when job hopping was not common, & you get a smiley face pin from management.

  • How are data storage prices going to change in the next couple years?
  • That tech looks super cool & might be worth waiting for, but from what I've been reading it is still being perfected and will likely see big improvements fairly quickly after release.

    Heres a clip from this article I think is relevent: Teh said the new drives have double the capacity of storage systems using conventional 16TB perpendicular magnetic recording (PMR) drives, and this can be doubled again over the next four years. The company is projecting 4TB platters in the next couple of years, with 5TB coming shortly thereafter, and 6TB out beyond the current roadmap.

    So there's a chance you wait for those drives, pay a little extra cuz the tech is new, then have something twice as good get released a year or two later.

    It's definetly a tricky situation & ultimately up to you and what you want. Do you need that extra storage asap, or is it more of a eventually kind thing? Does new tech have its own intrinsic value to you, or is it more about price per terabyte?

    Good luck with your decision! I know how hard these kind of choices can be. You never know what the market will look like after you finally make that big purchase.

  • How are data storage prices going to change in the next couple years?
  • There are a number of storage technologies in the works right now. However, I think they will result in a new type of memory device rather than HDDs getting cheaper. Kind of like how a stack of CDs isn't cheaper now than it was in 2005, rather there are new types of storage that offer more memory and longer life spans.

    So if you are definetly going HDD, prices are probably not going to get that much cheaper, if any cheaper at all.

    I'd say keep an eye out for sales & that will probably make a bigger difference than waiting a set amount of time.

  • Rulepost from Reddit: I made a tier list of Sonic characters based on how surprised I'd be if they came out as gay.
  • I agree with you in real life, but I do think rogue would play up her bi-ness in a public setting cuz she knows she's hot & is a bit of an exhibitionist. She's also probably had a group break up session where she dumps all 6 of her partners at once in a hipster coffee shop then asks for the batistas phone number.

  • Found this moth today

    !photo of a fuzzy palm sized moth

    Any chance someone knows anything about it? It was found in the Great Lakes area. It's about palm sized, found near a tree by the playground. I returned it to an out of the way place where kids wouldn't mess it it.
