People routinely blame you for earthquakes?

I get what you are saying, and I don't mean to trivialize ADHD or anyone's experience. I just feel that many opinions and experiences I've seen here are common occurrences to me and most people I know. It's impossible to judge how frequent or distressing each of them are to anyone who is suffering due to them. In my experience nearly everything posted here is a not a "that happens once in a while" but a "yes that is a thing humans do."

I think since everyone who has ADHD only knows what it is like to have ADHD many silly things everybody experiences are seen as a result of ADHD. Like giving up on a comment while posting it.

Once again, I have no way of judging how impactful, frequent and distressing any behavior is for another person, nor do I think there is benefit in doing so. I just believe that much of content I've seen here is not unique to ADHD people.

One of the problems with arguing with people online is I tend to assume people are arguing in good faith.

After getting about 50 studies showing that cell phones are bad for learning, I switched to duckduckgo. Not until page 3 did I find your sources. You have waded through data that says you are wrong. I'm not interested in copying them for you.

I disagree.

Great! But you have no evidence to support your argument. Your apples to oranges comparison of laptops isn't compelling. Nor am I compelled by your methodology argument, which seems to take issue with testing a hypothesis that phones are a distraction.

thought hitting was better than nothing even when they knew it was net harmful

Once again, we know cellphones are detrimental to learning. This is not a matter of schools failing to adapt to new technology. Tablets, computers, interactive software and more are used. It is about unrestricted cell phone use, which studies have shown hinders learning.

a phone ban in NY caused an increase in overall student obedience and educational productivity, ... Of course, this study does directly contradict your educatoronline article.

No it doesn't. It says that no phones mean better learning. You are missing the forest for the trees.

Crowd dynamics

Lots of research has been done on this, and a small number of people can influence a large group. Look at "wave" studies for more info.

Calling minimum acceptable classroom behavior "picking yourself up by your bootstraps" is absurd. It's like saying that you can't expect people to not talk at the theater because that's just asking too much of people.

I agree with their politics, I just feel that plot took a hit to allow them to soapbox more. Aliens lost what made them alien and became humans with make up.

My issue isn't the message, to me it felt like the lecturing of DISCO with fart jokes.

But it is the question.

OP wants to know if fairphone will last 10 years. The retort is that even if you can have a phone that is supported for 10 years, you won't want to use it that long.

I always wonder if Iggy Pop asked to be on Star Trek or if someone called in a favor.

She was fantastic!

However her reading of translation state involved the most guttural pronunciation of grandmama I've ever heard

Fuck Microsoft, switch to Linux

Absolutely. But I wouldn't hold my breath on companies actually stopping use of MS.

Every hour was obviously hyperbole. It would break often. Normally due to some issue that would pop up, most often drivers.

She did run on unstable and had a fetch for updates automated every evening. Her goal wasn't a stable OS, but to be at the forefront of testing. She knew no programming, so it meant that she would report bugs and have a box with a giant fan that didn't run anything most of the time. She made bad choices.

I'm sure stable Debian is stable. I'm sure it's gotten better in the past 15 years, but the fact my experience with Debian was an unstable mess that was more of a job than a useable system makes me suspicious of the distro.
