To be fair, I don’t know that we don’t block coursera as well but the block I specifically saw was for a course hero. And some of the blocks that we have on are for security reasons over reliability reasons. We have to be hyper cautious about the students leaking any potentially PHI and some of the Google sign in setups are less secure than others.

That’s been my go to since they started. There is/was a challenge using them when we evaluated them a while back with forcing safe search reliability if I recall the reason.

We have a different person that manages our block list so I don’t know the reason for all the blocks. That said, we block https://www.coursehero.com/ not https://www.coursera.org/

Thanks for the tip

That is exactly what is happening. They type in the search query on their Chromebook (for example, “why do dry erase markers float”, the results page flashes for a second and then the “this page is blocked” screen comes up saying they were blocked from Reddit, et al. Without them clicking on any search results.

And 2 kids can do the exact same search at the same time and get blocked for different sites or only one will get blocked.

I work in an education setting and in the last month, Google started preloading the contents of other sites directly on the search page. It is wreaking havoc when combined with our blocking tools because kids will do a Google search for something innocuous and the page will immediately get blocked because it tried to load a result from Reddit or coursehero or something else we have blocked.

It’s incredibly frustrating.

Everyone loves Activision and what they’ve done for gaming. There no way this could go wrong.

I remember when she was popular learning that that she was like 10 years younger than me, so 35-ish.

It’s an older meme sir, but it checks out.

Even though I appreciate this post, I don’t think I will comment.

But I thought the Tim Apple donation to the trump inauguration was supposed to curry enough favor to avoid this.

The main reasons I still haven’t closed Mine is that there are a couple niche groups I follow, local places that post daily status updates about things like ice fishing conditions that only exist there, and marketplace. I hate how Facebook hollowed out Craigslist.

The keyboard uses super capacitors which are much longer lasting than lithium batteries, it also has an USB C wired connection port hidden under a cap.

Twitter, where the response to “I like Hot Dogs” is “Why do you hate Cheeseburgers???”

There has also been an influx of toxic people whose only joy is getting a reaction out of others that are joining because the people they’d normally target on X are leaving. I’ve seen them trying to get the same type of engagement they used to get and also a lot of other people calling them out as “Hey, this person is an ass, you can block them/add them to the MAGA Trolls list”. That could seem like a flood of toxicity to some.

I only have 2 followers, is it possible that I’m the bot? Wait, how would I know if I was? Is this the Matrix? Damnit! Maybe there’s a website to find out? BotOrNot? What even is a traffic light? Is a bus a car? What about a truck? Is a motorcycle a bike? A scooter? Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhrgh….

I’ve been on Bluesky since February. I have yet to see any nudity that I didn’t actively seek out. It’s not too difficult.
