This is called the "analog loophole" and there's nothing anyone can do to stop it. They can encrypt and copy-protect all they want, but eventually the file has to be sent to a speaker and/or screen, and it has to get there in a human-readable form because that's the whole dang point

The simplest way to exploit the analog loophole is just pointing a camera at a screen or a microphone at a speaker, but direct recording is also always possible and always will be. Anything that can be displayed can be saved and displayed again

i dont feel so good

actually reblogging again just to make sure people know how to leave feedback.

if you hate the new app layout you can navigate to the You tab in app (bottom far right), click the gear at the top right to navigate to your settings, and scroll down to Appearance. they have a button just for feedback on the new app layout.

be precise about what features are impacting your ability to USE the app, they’re more likely to be considered than “i dislike change.” for example: i made sure to emphasize how much more confusing it is (for me personally) to navigate between servers and messages now.

Hey students, here’s a pro tip: do not write an email to your prof while you’re seriously sick.

Signed, a person who somehow came up with “dear hello, I am sick and not sure if I’ll be alive to come tomorrow and I’m sorry, best slutantions, [name]”.

I mean, if someone wrote that to me, I’d probably believe they were sick.

“Slutantions” has me crying laughing

i once emailed my professor with a migraine. a mistake.

“I amsick will not to choir because i have a heache. i Hope its very and i am so sorry

love,

blue”

the subject line was “OW”

THE SUBJECT LINE IS THE BEST PART JSJFJSJDJS JUST IMAGINE GETTING AN EMAIL WITH NO CONTEXT OTHER THAN “OW”

As someone who has taught college, please send those emails because 1) We WILL believe that; no one would write that on purpose and 2) we need a laugh sometimes.

On the other side of this, once after getting taken to the ER by ambulance, I got an email from the professor whose class I’d passed out in, and the message had no text, just the subject line “you good?”

Reblogging for the last addition

Claritin makes me weird, but I have allergies so there’s about a month and a half block of time where I’m taking Claritin and am just weird most of the time.

Anyway, my last year of college, I got the flu or something in late March and was also taking Mucinex. I told my professor I couldn’t come to class one day by email except I couldnt think of what to say, so my medicated ass decided to make a Fry meme. I think it said something like “Not sure if I can go to class with a head the size of Texas, bottom text.” I didn’t think until the next day that it probably wasn’t socially-acceptable to tell your philosophy professor you weren’t coming to class via Tumblr style memes. When i got back to class, i found that she’d printed it out and taped it to the classroom bulletin board.

Oh shit you guys i turned on my WinXP laptop that I used to use back then.

IT WAS ON THE DESKTOP. THIS IS WHAT I SENT.

It’s even worse than i remember it

A lot of American cooking is really quite French and it has been for centuries and I used to not know that and everyone talked up French cooking so much and then I started actually looking into it and I was like. I. Cook like this. Everyone I know cooks like this. This is just butter. It’s butter, Michael. It’s butter. You were hyping up butter. I can already do this.

French cooking is quite good, don’t get me wrong, but it’s a lot like American home cooking. Cooking with wine, butter, using a small amount of herbs, lots of meat and vegetables. Potatoes. Cream sauces. Bacon. This stuff has been in both American and French cooking since the colonial days. Home cooks read and watch a lot of things written by chefs trained in France over here. A lot of stuff my grandmother makes is quite similar to French dishes I’ve looked into. A lot of American white gravy is like French white sauce but made with cream instead of milk. A lot of soul food and comfort food over here especially southern stuff is quite French. It seems strange to me that some of these things are in five star restaraunts because like. I make stuff like this in my crock pot. Strange how much French food gets hyped up in America even though we’re basically already doing it.

There’s a lot of history, politics, exploiting of the poor, and misunderstanding in what these tags are saying. And the tone indicates to me that perhaps you’re not interested in learning it.

I love that "Kroger's" is included as a "brand" in those tags. Kroger is a grocery store in the Midwest where you purchase food items that can be cooked into meals. Nobody says "let's have Kroger for dinner tonight!" Who are these people
