Stupid, sexy Flanders overalls!

Yeah, I never thought I’d be a vertical tabs fan, but I am really loving it in combination with their compact mode. Really nice layout with the containers, pinned tabs and essential tabs! Also really digging the Glance feature and floating URL bar. I’m really looking forward to folder support!

Any Elder Millennial born after 1979 can’t Markdown, all they know is jot that down, 30% off on jeans, nostalgia for blockbuster, eat hot chip and buy avocado toast

woah, that sounds ingenious! I’m gonna have to make a note of that for the day that I finally pick up a headset.

All of this has happened before. All of this will happen again.

Of course. This is what I call out of the box thinking!

But the article doesn’t really make it clear how much AI is involved in the textbooks, just that “Digital textbooks that make use of artificial intelligence are being adopted throughout South Korea.”, emphasis mine.

Other text from the article, relevant to your question:

South Korea, the 2025 APEC chair, held the group’s first education ministers’ meeting in nine years, the theme of which was innovation in digital education. Education ministers from 21 countries and regions participated.
[…]
Private companies and government-affiliated organizations set up booths at the APEC venue to promote their efforts. They exhibited software in which generative AI writes student evaluations on behalf of teachers or assigns homework and applied problems tailored to each child’s level of understanding.

The road to implementation was not a smooth one.

The government’s original goal was the world’s first rollout of AI digital textbooks to all schools nationwide. But teachers worried about the burden that making full use of the technology would place on them, while parents questioned whether the textbooks would actually improve student performance and whether they could lead to digital dependency.

After heated debate, lawmakers made last-minute changes, including requiring continued use of paper textbooks for subjects such as Korean and home economics and delaying implementation for other subjects. The government also made plans to provide advanced training to more than 160,000 teachers as well as dispatch 1,200 digital tutors as support staff.

You just made me remember how I called her “little star” for years, after the Beau Taplin poem..

No clue why I stopped. I’m going to start back up, and see what she thinks :)

Yes. I always figured it made sense, after I read an article that talked about how a study posited that yawning helped bring more oxygen into the body, which would temporarily make you more alert. So based on that, I figured it made sense why you’d get more tired, if you couldn’t yawn.

Ayy, same day!

That Imginn link that mediocreme_ow posted seems promising, but otherwise in a pinch, I have good results with opening Instagram posts from profiles by opening them in a new tab. If you just don’t click them, but instead open them in a new tab, I don’t get hit with the “create an account”.

I also completely misunderstood the article’s title at first, “Japan’s prime minister is mad about Assassin’s Creed Shadows”

I thought he was loving it.

Oh, I had no idea that Alexandrite could pop the comment section out on the side of the main feed, so you don’t have to leave the front page in order to read comments. That is amazing, I’ve been wanting that ever since moving to Lemmy.

I think that Firefox (and Firefox forks, like Zen Browser) have low-enough marketshare that websites that depend on ad revenue may just kill support for Firefox if Firefox does permit ad blocking

An argument could also be made that Firefox and its forks have low-enough marketshare that websites that depend on ad revenue won’t want to deal with the extra work of keeping those users out.

I think they’re referring to this post that OP made 3 days ago: i took an iq test and it was nice and i took my time doing it but the answer was 86, is that bad??

There’s currently 38 comments in that thread, and only 2 of them are from OP, at the time of me writing this comment here.

Thank you so much for sharing the video! I really enjoyed it, and I’m excited to check out more videos from him. I took a quick look at the other videos he’s uploaded, and they look really interesting.

Yeah, unfortunately it seems like the dev only has 2 games available on Steam currently. Democratic Socialism Simulator which is 2.39€ and Green New Deal Simulator, which is free. That last one looks like the other side of Oligarchy!

Also available from the official site here: https://www.molleindustria.org/flash/index.html?file=%2Fswf%2Foiligarchy.swf

And now I’m off to look at all the other games available there!

In the same vein, with my family I’ve been using the analogy of “Imagine that all law enforcement had a key to your home, and they could enter at any time and look through your things, but you wouldn’t even know it if they did, or if they took photos or recorded videos of your place to take with them. Their argument is that the only way to keep you and your stuff safe from the bad guys is for the good guys to have access. But because the good guys now have access, it’s also easier for the bad guys to get in, because now there’s all these extra keys to your home out there, which might fall into the hands of the bad guys.”

Not a perfect analogy, but it seems to make them consider the issue from a more personal angle. And for those that argue, “Well, I don’t have anything to hide.”, I usually counter with “Then why do you close your curtains/blinds when you change your clothes or get out of the shower?” With my dad who grew up during the World War II, it also helped to mention that a law like this, once on the books, will not be easy to overturn, and while he might be fine with our current regime having access to all his data, that might not be the case with future authorities.
