Given the fake sources, the fake content, and the left-out content to bias articles along with the insane behavior by the entrenched, abusive "admins" who have [[WP:OWN]]ership complexes, Wikipedia is basically trash anyways...

The concept of "god" is literally the dumbest fucking shit ever, designed to control the Inbred Trashyokels and Goatfuckers from 2-4000 years ago. We should have long moved away from that Cult Crap.

We had the Telecomm act and legal requirements for wired service for a reason. The cell networks have shirked this for too long.

You can thank the GOP, aka the Retardican Party, for that. Decades of not letting teachers teach and demanding "teacher-proof curriculums" that kowtow to fake white-supremacist history, young-earth creationism, and other DumbRetardedFuckery.

I seem to remember the Iraq-area wars that the US was involved in going on far longer and less of an oil crisis happening this fast.

That would be because even during those wars and conflicts, we didn't have an orange-painted pedophilic retard with delusions of grandeur causing a weekslong blockage of the major shipping lane through which ~35% of the world's crude oil trade flows.

The closest we've seen recently was when the Ever Given got stuck in the Suez during 2021, and even that only lasted for 6 days. Plus, it wasn't as big a deal because less oil was being used worldwide during pandemic countermeasures.

The closest in the past 100 years is when Treasonous Klanbitch Ronny Reagan betrayed the USA and convinced the Iranian Ayatollah to cut off shipping to hurt Carter in the 1980 election, in trade for guns and other military supplies that the Treasonshit Republicans paid out later during Reagan's terms.

Cue the Corrupt MafiAA starting another assault on digital preservation. Sigh.

The women he walked in on, who WERE UNDERAGE TEENS AT THE TIME, remember him doing it.

iOS has that marketshare now because countries other than the USA (in the Asian zone and Eurozone) caught Apple doing monopolistic things and acted to stop it early.

Wait. You say Microsoft is doing the same thing they've done a dozen times before, again? I'm shocked, I say. Shocked.

........ well, not that shocked.

Basically the EFF exists to defend pedo rights

You are disturbingly confused and thinking of the (GOP) RetardedKlan Party whose head is a literal 34-time convicted felon, pedophile who admitted in a Howard Stern video to invading locker rooms of underage girls at pageants, and all-around Treasonous Shitrag who wears caked orange makeup to hide his syphilis blemishes.

Anyone who supports HitlerHeiler Leon Skum is already diagnosed as severely retarded.

I knew someone pushing this shit a few years ago and claiming it was "therapy." She got arrested for dealing (other) drugs and then fled the country after making FALSE accusations at a number of people...

The same company that banned people for linking to the British Holocaust Museum (HMD.Org.UK) claiming the links were violations of the policy on "dangerous individuals and organizations." Zuckerberg is a pedophilic little-boy-raping sick-trash Nazi.

One of the lessons we've had as the Federal, multi-branch nature of the US governmennt has frustrated Trump is that the government may be fucking us over, but it's not doing it in *unison*. It's doing it piecemiel, on the initiative of many interests working against each other, just as the framers intended. The motto on the Great Seal notwithstanding, there are myriad roadblocks to consolidating power in the hands of a single individual. It takes time and repeated failures. This is why the second Trump Adminsitration is worse than the first; they've figured out ways around things like Congressional power of the purse, put more of their henchmen in the judiciary, and normalized Congress lying down and letting the president walk all over them. It's a serious situation, although fortunately Trump isn't long for this world.

While that's true, a responsible generation aims to boost the next generation to a *higher* level than the education they received. The world has become more complex and faster-paced, and even if that weren't true, the consequenes of aiming high and falling short are better than the consequences of aiming for the status quo and falling short.

So while I'm 100% onboard with skepticism that technology will magically make education better, I think the argument that "the education I got worked for me should be good for them" isn't a strong argument. What we need is a better ecducation that would have been a better education fifty years ago: stronger math, science, and language skills, general knowledge, and, I think critical thinking and media literacy. Possibly emotional intelligence -- it's kind of pointless to teach people critcial thinking skills if they are carried away by emotions.
