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!
I went looking for the implied ‘A’ language but couldn’t find it. Did find this though:

Surprising how many single letter names there are.
Possibly OpenTTD?
Same developer but different games, from what I can tell he released Transport Tycoon first, then Locomotion which had ?better graphics and less complexity?
I’ll have to try openloco, I’ve only ever played OpenTTD and it’s pretty good
Have you tried Ardour?
Second OpenTTD - that’ll keep you busy
Already has - air Canada was held liable for their ai chatbot giving wrong information that a guy used to buy bereavement tickets. They tried to claim they weren’t responsible for what it said, but the judge found otherwise. They had to pay damages.
Iirc just recently they started giving out blue ticks to people with lots of followers, regardless of if they wanted it. Then this week they make it so you can’t hide them. It seems like a dim move - piss off the people who bring lots of traffic to your website, but actively decided to not get a blue tick, by forcing the tick on them.
If they didn’t leave beforehand, maybe this would make some people/orgs consider leaving?
The fish and chip co-op that used to be nearby was the best - trawlers parked out the back, super fresh produce, generous portions and reasonable prices.
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.
No definitely don’t sideload a YouTube client that doesn’t play ads!
The worst part is it’s not just ‘they’ll kill whales, trust us’, it’s that they’ve cited a study in a journal to support their claim - but the journal says they have no record of the study being published or existing in the first place!
That’s interesting - in Australia we do have ‘protected action’ that can be taken when bargaining. Basically each workplace in a union has a vote to strike (endorsed by the fair work commission) and if it gets up any action taken is protected from retaliation.
You should read this page: https://github.com/linux-surface/linux-surface/wiki/Installation-and-Setup
It’s very detailed about what to do to get stuff working (on lots of distros), and what currently isn’t working (see camera support etc)
I took a look in the past but deemed it too much of a compromise at the time for what wasn’t working.
‘of all time’ - hmmm the earliest item on the list is the newton from the 90s, but then everything else is firmly in the last 20 years.
I think so, it doesn’t look like any device from here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palm_(PDA).
The logo is from the first palms, but it’s way too curvy
