There aren't words for how insidiously disgusting and blatant this is. (Link)

This comment was left on a post about making the most of the Libby app. "Excessive use of generous lending policies" is the most absurd phrase I've ever seen anyone use to discuss libraries.

Today marks 6 months since Alex Pretti was shot. I joined my local community to grieve and reflect. It was good to hold our trauma as a group.

It seems everyone knows of the violence and anger in Minneapolis during the surge. The protests, the flung dildos, all the resistance and fighting. These were good and necessary.

But I don't think as many people heard about the kindness in Minneapolis. In this crisis and deadly cold, Minneapolis made sure to care for her own.

Free food was all over. Local restaurants opened their doors for anyone who needed a meal. The very same local restaurants that were struggling financially due to the ICE surge. Local organizations and churches hosted soup stands outside. Those patrolling, threatened by ICE, and the unhoused came and had hot meals.

Businesses put up signs to explicitly invite anyone in to escape the cold. To have a warm chair to rest in before going back out to watch for ICE.

On Nicollet, a memorial for Alex Pretti was put up. Cones were erected to redirect traffic around it. It's still there. A group has worked together to maintain it all this time. They remove dead flowers, water pots, protect notes from the rain, and everything they need to to honor Pretti and those coming to mourn. During the surge, nearby businesses offered flowers that you could lay at the memorial.

Neighbors organized events. Block parties, coffee meetups, food shelves, group therapy, free markets, grocery deliveries... the list goes on. The city was committed to letting each other know that no one was alone in this. Everyone was trying to hold each other in the ways we could.

I could go on about a hundred different small ways my neighbors connected and supported each other. I could go on about what my friends were doing in the suburbs. But I just want everyone to remember the kindness. You won't get the full picture of Minneapolis this winter without it. Alongside everyone screaming "FUCK ICE" was another saying "Thank you. Would you like some soup? This one is vegan."

Maybe I'm being slow, but do I have to wait 24 hours to use my phone or just to install software?

Hmm, I’m not exactly sure, from what I’ve seen, it seems like it’s just for installing software and that your phone can still be used

Android's new sideloading rules are here, and they come with a 24-hour lock!

Google is fundamentally changing how sideloading works on Android, especially for apps from unverified developers. Here's are the new rules.

Here’s How Google’s ‘Safer’ Sideloading Works on Android

While Google is restricting app downloads from sources other than the Google Play Store, the company will allow sideloading after a mandator

You can look into it some more if your unsure though

still thinking about the apparent 2006-2007 epidemic of rabid swarms of wii remotes descending on helpless televisions like locusts

[estrogenesis-vaporeongelion]

wii sports was invented by nefarious television manufacturers to break people's televisions

[puppygirllaika]

What a very funny joke that definitely did not happen because Nintendo definitely did not buy up almost a third of the shares of the top five TV manufacturers in the time between the announcement and release of the Wii, shares which definitely didn't skyrocket in value over the next two years due to an increase in flatscreen sales, nearly half of which independent analysts attributed to people replacing damaged TVs with newer, more expensive models from electronics stores that relied on high-pressure sales tactics to upsell people and get them to buy more expensive models on credit which they couldn't actually afford.

"you can give feedback with a.i.!" "look at what flint came up with!" "it makes grading essays so much easier!"

[prettyasapic]

My mom’s a Special Ed teacher and she legit had to get up in the middle of a seminar and tell the presenter that no, you CANNOT have an AI write your IEPs, since they’re legal documents

[thoodleoo]

one of the other teachers was talking about using flint k12 to modify feedback for a kid with dyslexia and i could literally feel my soul leaving my body. like what have we become. we are putting the educational fate of our kids with learning disabilities in the hands of a machine that does not even know what the words it's spitting out means. how is it supposed to help them when it cannot process human language and is instead spitting out the result of statistical probabilities. these are the students who need our real human support most. is this thing on. hello
