Schools banning phones is one of the dumbest thing to do.
They want to control the media around the inevitable school shooting. The calls from inside while cops wait outside are not something the police or schools want to hear again.
That's not what schools want, I fear. But it does serve the cops well.
I don't know who's teaching these kids and I want to congratulate both teachers and kids for an awesome education. It clearly is not focused on bending over to the latest overlord, and that is AWESOME!!!!
I'm with the Smartphone of Theseus guy. 🤣
I can't believe a kid would know about this.
Slightly restored faith in future generations.
the answer is quite succinct though:
does it have the same number?
So, if I switch my sim card to a totally different phone, which phone do I give up?
That kid who asked about radios should be given a scholarship to a STEM degree. Also the kids who asked about using smoke signals and pigeons have mad creativity. The stock kid? Well he probably has more financial accumen than most Wallstreet punks.
The kid with the replacement dilemma? Forget philosophy. That is lawyer material right there.
500 kHz is outside the amateur radio bands. With a general license they'd be able to use 472 to 479 kHz. With only technician they could use Morse code (only) on 3.525 to 3.600 MHz.
Meshtastic in the US uses 918MHz, it’s good for text chat
That reminds me of my previous work. We couldn't but PCs from our project budget, because they are classified along furniture (because they should outlive the duration of a project), but we can buy replacement/repair parts. So yeah... Enough replacement parts make for a new PC.

Thankfully, there's an official standard for using the internet with just carrier pigeons: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_over_Avian_Carriers
I can't believe they removed the photo of a dead pigeon captioned "An example of packet loss."
"...this technology suffers from extremely high latency."
You know, pigeons probably do have relatively high latency but I bet a carrier pigeon could carry at least three SD cards, meaning a pigeon has hella bandwidth.

And high packet loss.
But it does work in an electrically challenged environment when the latency of the internet is infinite. But it can be hacked by 3/4oz #8 birdshot.

Banning cell phones in school while school shootings are a regular occurrence is top tier decision making
Students can keep a phone in their bag if they really need it. The fact that we ever allowed kids to scroll instead of paying attention in class is absurd.
Haven't been in school for a minute but they would never allow us to just be freely on our phones so idk wtf you're talking about.
I think the fact that most commenters seem to think kids should use cell phones in class confirms Lemmy is mostly children
There are zero teachers in these comments, that's for sure.
I haven't been to school in a while, but we had smartphones when I did. And if we took up our phones in class we got called out by the teacher.

I want to see the answers on the right.
Just have to zoom out a little, nothing to it.
I know that tone of "Let's talk."
Kid, if anything ever goes wrong that requires intelligence, you are now in a very short of list of kids to blame first.
From the last answer, it sounds like they would only need to turn in their SIM card.

I often forget that while young people aren't usually too wise to the ways of the world, that doesn't mean they're not fucking smart!
Woke to this reading a senior (high school) paper of mine 35-years later. Figured it would be childish. Holy shit! I wrote that at 17?!
Now if I could get the brain plasticity back and tack on the wisdom, I'd be a beast brain. :(

Real honestly. Fuck US education and fuck the pay teachers get handed as a "livable" wage. There is an education drought. It's insane it's now a crime to text your mother what you want for dinner.
