This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Fuck chromebooks anyways, Google shouldn't be allowed to steal so much information about our youth directly from the devices they use at school. They should be using laptops with Linux installed on them, preferably Pop!OS to preserve the kids privacy.
I don't condone damaging school property, although I think it's a lesser evil to Google's privacy practices on Chromebooks.
Just gotta get some of that Magic Smoke.
We live in hell
Just got a notification about this from my kids school district in Northern CA.
Youthful rebellion transcends technology.
Is there much difference between this and, say, using a pen to drill a hole in your desk?
I've never done that either. The fuck? did you eat paint as a kid?
Desks are cheaper, and the hole only slightly impairs functionality.
I don't get it. I was never this stupid as a kid.
Edit: thank you for explaining to me that many of you were that stupid. I guess I never hung around any of you.
Aren't the families responsible for the damages?
Yes they are. These 9th graders are feral though. That realization would require forethought.
Some of these kids should have been sent out to cut trail for a year between HS and Middle School.
