In every class I took in college, 5-10 minutes to the end, I'd ruffle some papers and zip the zipper on my back pack to end class early because "student close up noises" are contagious.

Without fail the class would end a few minutes early. As soon as I started making the sounds it was like dominoes. Ten minutes left in the lecture but everyone has all their stuff put away and are putting their coats on. I think of this often. May this knowledge set you free a few minutes early.

Well, if anyone is seeing this, I decided to buy a Pi 5 and a case and we’re going to get some Linux variant running, and I’ll set him up with some browsing capability and some kid friendly apps.

Trump's OMB Director: “We want the bureaucrats to be traumatically affected...When they wake up in the morning, we want them to not want to go to work...We want to put them in trauma.”

This is an older article from propublica, but this is the explanation for anyone. Wondering why they are doing what they’re doing to federal workers. Trump and his team are purposely trying to break the government. And whatever bullshit reasons they give about a Marxist takeover or the deep state or whatever, the actual effect is that China and Russia will win the century and America will lose. > “We want the bureaucrats to be traumatically affected,” he said. “When they wake up in the morning, we want them to not want to go to work because they are increasingly viewed as the villains. We want their funding to be shut down so that the EPA can’t do all of the rules against our energy industry because they have no bandwidth financially to do so. > “We want to put them in trauma.”

How to get a 5 yo started in (useful) computing?

How to get a 5 yo started in (useful) computing? - Lemmy.World

The kid’s grandparents got him an Amazon Fire tablet and I loathe the thing. It teaches literally nothing about computing and the games they have for kids are barely even games, and are more focusing on advertising various IPs. I’d like to get the kid started, as he learns to read, on something that will be more useful than detrimental, let that soft little brain soak up some actual computer science, literacy. I teach him about basic electrical circuits and how that translates to computing, if, and, or, xor, nor, etc. He’s got some familiar with hex (colors) and the concept of binary (on/off). But what to get for a first computer? I almost want to get him something Linux based and turn him loose. Is there anything like that, that would require him to learn some command prompt and basic computing skills? Every time and try and Google it, I get a bunch of crap suggestions and ads.

Just some quick context.

This is at the old military fort on Corsica in the town of Ajjacia, France, birthplace of Napoleon.

I don’t know hardly anything about the fort, but looking at it, it has this grassy moat around it, and the donkey was in there just chowing away in grass and stuff. I think he’s there to help keep it clean, and is probably not a very good fighter.
