School cell phone bans have hit most states. Not everyone is on board.
  • My schools all banned cell phones from middle to high school. If one would go off or if you were caught by the teacher, they would confiscate it and you'd have to pay money to get it back by the end of the day. It was really funny watching kids covering each other no matter who you were if someone's phone went off in their backpack. We'd all start collectively coughing and making loud sounds to cover it up. Teachers for the most part were pretty relaxed on the phone going off in your backpack policy though. They only enforced the policy if you were caught using your phone during class.

  • Heavy metal rule
  • I always wanted to make a DND character that's a warrior but was raised with mages so he believed he was a mage. The mages were just too nice to tell him that he was a warrior and kept on encouraging him on his "spells". He would throw a Molotov cocktail and call it fireball and other antics. Sometimes he would get frustrated and punch things and call it mage fist.

  • Trans man forced to undergo prison genital exams wins $275,000 settlement
  • This is the reason why trans men decide to stay in a woman's prison. The people in a woman's prison are treated better and I don't deny there's some form of sexual assault, there is less than the men's prisons. One big difference between a men and women's prison is you being asked to do something by the COs instead of being told. For example, if an officer says to get out your cell, they will wait for you to get out in a women's prison. In a men's prison, if you take too long you'll get escorted out by other officers.

    And before people go "oh then people from the men's prison can just declare themselves to be trans and then come and rape all the women". Yeah no. There's a rigious application process to transfer into a woman's prison as a trans person. You also get free hormones, which is nice.

  • Why do (desktop) PC have so few USB ports ?
  • I had that issue as well with a USB hub that has charging. Turns out it was the hub that was the issue because it would throttle or even shut off the charging to other usb ports when there's too high of a demand to prevent it from overheating. Swapped to a better usb hub and had no issues since.
