Nah, I’m with you too.

I was around when Clippy died. Fuck that bent piece of recycled pop can.

Then they gave us Cortana.

117 votes and it affects over 200 people?

What fucking losers not stepping up and voting?!

50% of them like: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Heh, yeah except instead of a pool table they brought in a Chexx bubble hockey game… and got the cheap one without the volume control on it. So randomly thoughtout the day you’d hear the digital organ playing duh duh dud did duh DUH! Until someone unplugged it.

Finally someone took it apart and wired in a cheap volume knob but it didn’t solve the sounds of two competitive players cussing at each other for spinning the players.

I remember her getting re-elected.

Jesus Christ, her district must be frighteningly dumb.

Super cool, thanks!

I know three public school teachers personally.

One left teaching all together for a corporate job that paid better and had better benefits without dealing with helicopter parents. Straight up loved teaching, loved her kids, but the parents can fuck right off.

Another is a special needs teacher with twenty years experience and is seeing her budget slashed because the school district just built a huge new high school to consolidate three other school buildings into. Fancy sports complex, too. Oh and she has 20% more kids next year without a teaching assistant.

The third is resigned because they had a kid who has some behavioral issues and has grabbed her breasts and buttocks multiple times without the administration supporting. I’m sure there’s a lawsuit brewing there.

So at any point, feel free to attend your school board meetings and vote for school board members… it won’t fix funding or senior level leadership issues. State governments will reneg on funding when a new administration gets elected, and we’ll continue to get property tax levies to shore up the budget shortages.

Man, this takes me back to when I hooked my BBS up to fidomail in the late 80’s early 90’s. Same growing pains but the hackers (in the original sense of the word) will prevail.

I’m a data center nerd and love to know what makes this tick, if you shared this info already can you point me towards it? I’m new around here but I have a very strong desire to help this work - I’m stoked about this new thing!

Also thank you for this thing here!
