It's that I've been in schools with after school activities in the last year.
Kids were popping chip bags and nobody drew weapons or jumped because of a loud pop that sounds nothing like a normal gunshot.
I was in school before columbine ever happened.
I don't think violence in is ok in most situations. I think America has a mental health and gun issue.
I like the Capri Sun mylar things from a nostalgic perspective.
I was responding to you Coggy.
There were drills where you were taught what to do in the event of a life threatening emergency.
There were talks about nuclear events and preparation for scary things.
There were school shootings before columbine.
People didn't have national and international news poured into their faces as easily before.
I mocked the confidently incorrect assumptions of American school history and celebration of personally enforced ignorance.
And - Rudolf Wild invented the drink in 1969
Columbine was far from the first school shooting. According to the Washington Post:
"The first recorded school shooting in the United States was in 1853 at a schoolhouse in Louisville, Kentucky. On November 2, 1853, Matt Ward shot and killed teacher William H.G. Butler with a pistol hidden in his coat pocket."
Pro tip: block 2 trolls that can't see past their nose to have rational discussion in the thread.
You can replace the OS on most Android devices.
Specifically- devices made by Google have been unlocked allowing replacement of the software.
You still have to put together a working kernel and drivers, environment, etc.
Not much stopping folks from doing that though.
GrapheneOS, Ubuntu, and others have made headway for some devices.
Each device potentially uses different hardware implementation and features.
Or, maybe writing firmware and code that doesn't make money is the opposite of profit.
Where is the incentive to write code that reduces security and costs money they won't recover ?
This is a crowdstrike issue specifically related to the falcon sensor. Happens to affect only windows hosts.
It seems if you block an instance, folks from that instance can still post in other federated servers and be seen.
I don't see an option for 'muting' on the midwest.social instance for individual users or other instances.
I am guessing it's Boost or instance specific, where the application would sort back the output and selectively render replies. I don't know.
Blocking users keeps their messages from appearing to you. Blocking an instance removes all user and community communications from your views. There might be more
That didn't last, lol. He has said he was ready to go for another debate in the last day or so.
