My kid's highschool has gone 100% Chromebook, meaning       there are no more textbooks. I don't like it. It's bad for their eyes, it's a       bad idea to send kids walking the streets with millions of dollars worth of       computers, it's bad that schools are making big deals with big tech companies,       it's more convenient to read textbooks, there's password issues, there's       privacy concerns, and the list of things wrong with it is a mile long.              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A49 2023/04/30 (Windows/64)        * Origin: JoesBBS.Com, Telnet:23 SSH:22 HTTP:80 (1:342/200)       SEEN-BY: 105/81 106/201 128/187 129/305 153/7715 154/110 218/700 226/30       SEEN-BY: 227/114 229/110 111 114 206 300 307 317 400 426 428 470 664       SEEN-BY: 229/700 705 266/512 291/111 320/219 322/757 342/200 202 396/45       SEEN-BY: 460/58 712/848 902/26 2320/105 5075/35       PATH: 342/200 229/426           |
