What’s a personal?

This right here. Every running water noise your ears perk up thinking that it’s the worst. Then you realise it’s just the dishwasher.

Another shoutout to summit, coming from an ex-Sync user. It’s very nice.

So the article mentions tarrifs by Mexico, and provides a link to them - but they just go to a tweet from the Mexican President that say nothing about tarrifs.

What action are they taking?

There are no eggs. Anywhere.

Here in Australia they fill it and give it to you, no refills.

McDonald’s USA has free soft drink refills.

There’s other ways - write it into the conditions of loan that it’s not the school’s responsibility to monitor student use when at home.

There are solutions that allow monitoring only on campus - both the monitoring person and the student need to be on-site for the software to contact a licensing server. No server contact=no monitoring.
And never bring ‘AI’ into it.

Like doing homework in your room? Where now the monitor can turn on your webcam without you knowing and watch you in your personal space?

OK so that’s nuts they installed a private ‘AI’ monitoring software that they have no oversight or control over. From the article, they can’t even see what it flags as inappropriate - it just flags and deletes.
A school admin should never hand over that much control!

This is so frustrating when trouble shooting - trying to re-find where that one settings page was because you opened another.
It’s not a phone - it’s a windowing desktop environment. Allow multiple instances!

That’s the perfect amount of parmesan.

And the surveillance station in the middle of Australia (pine gap)

And there’s quite a few missing!

A lot of the new systems can use battery powered cameras that are motion activated - they can last for a month+ on battery because they only turn fully on when they detect motion.

You’re right though - if it’s mission critical don’t rely on wireless.

But Jif in Australia is a cleaning solution - can we have different pronunciations based on country?
