The quick check is to search for a game on Proton DB and see how well it runs (usually pretty well!)

In Britain we have “reception” (when you’re aged 4-5) which is the first year of primary school, and I assumed equivalent to your kindergarten. I don’t recall there being much formal education in the same way as there is for the rest of school, but it was definitely more structured than preschool/nursery/playgroup that you’d go to beforehand.

OK, I think I was just thrown by the use of “passing” and “failing”. Repeating the first year based on development makes sense, but “passing” and “failing” imply you’re taking some kind of written exam and need to qualify for a position!

Failed kindergarten? You guys can fail the first year of school, the one where all you do is play with toys and learn how to interact with other children?

People are people; I feel we’ve generally got quite a good vibe going on so don’t let the grumps bring you down!

You only need two of them, one for 1 and one for 0

Absolutely. If all you care about is the win at the end then maybe you don’t actually enjoy the game, you just enjoy dopamine.

I’ve never thought to ask before, but is “nightstand” just American for “bedside table”?

I always heard “if it’s XcQ, the link stays blue”

I’ve tried KDE Plasma Mobile on an old Surface Pro and it seemed to work better than Gnome

Isn’t this basically the plot of the Lego Batman movie?

Absolute hero

So what did you do when you needed to move around to do group work or anything that required a larger table?

Reminds me of these:

And the only time I saw one of those was on a school trip when we learned about life during WW2

Are those desks with built-in chairs? Is that actually a thing?

Incredible. Glad you were able to take some of his money!

No amount of explaining got through to him.

I need to know more. He didn’t understand the concept of turning a computer off!?

Literally my first experience after installing dark reader is that it can’t darken its own add-on page! Seems to be good for other pages so I’ll give it a go for now.

I always found that to be quite hit and miss. Works for plenty but often gives a flash of white before it kicks in and makes enough pages unreadable that I’d rather not bother at all! I’ll give it another go and see if it’s improved though.

What setup do you have that actually sets a dark background everywhere? In my experience there are always plenty of programs and web pages that stay white.
