School often represses creativity in favor of compliance.

Most don't. Edge is increasingly becoming more popular as consumers switch to Windows 11.

The funniest announcement in my railway station has been: "The train xxxxx coming from y and directed to z has been canceled because someone stole the electrical cables on the line".

Funny only since it wasn't my train.
