I read through the user profile to decide whether or not to block them. Don't bother with voting from their profile.

!battlestations@lemmy.ml has been pretty quiet... I miss looking at cool setups and vicariously imagining myself using them.

18M, entering uni soon and looking to replace the Osprey kids' pack that I've been using for the past 9 years.

I'd like a backpack that's able to carry a 14 inch laptop, a textbook or two, a jacket, an umbrella, a water bottle... A laptop pocket and side pouches for water bottles are preferable but not a must.

Budget approx. 500-700 HKD (64-90 USD). Looking into getting a Jansport Right Pack (with the reinforced bottom), but I'd like to hear your recommendations.

Congrats bro, you're insane. How many hours did it take you?

Tbh I'd never been allowed to use my phone at school (just graduated HS). Same goes for most schools where I live. Usually kids can bring phones, but they're supposed to keep them powered off or in a locker on campus. Of course kids will find a way (hiding away in toilet stalls to game etc.), but still.

I don't see an issue with the rule itself. I don't think there's really a way to responsibly use a smartphone at school. If kids really need to contact parents, it shouldn't be that difficult to ask a teacher for help. Implementing a worldwide rule seems strange to me though.

You had tamago kake gohan minus the soy sauce. I like it, but I understand how the raw egg texture can be off-putting.

That duck looks like it's revelling in the sheer destruction his kind caused

It's so round. God I wish that were me.

It's worrying how many of the answers are "nobody". Not surprising based on Lemmy's main demographic being men in their 20s-30s, but damn.

I freshly graduated secondary school and still have a tight-knit friend group that I can lean on. Even as we drift apart, I hope I can still maintain this type of support network in the future, although I'm not too optimistic.

HP Smart is complete ass lmao. I have an HP laser printer that prints well, but it's always a headache to start printing anything wirelessly from my laptop. Can only ever rely on the ol' USB cable.

I'm on lemmy.sdf.org because it's widely federated and run by a trustworthy organization.

I'm not much of a tech bro - in fact I struggle with troubleshooting basic Linux issues. That's why I mostly interact outside of my local instance.

I hardly engage with the techy discussion on SDF, but I appreciate the high quality user base.
