Everyone should care about the efficacy of the education system. It's the foundation of a useful society, and essential for its betterment. This method of cheating and its rate of adoption is a major blow to a whole generation of students that will learn to have others think for them instead of leaning to think for themselves.

This is a story ask about the UK, not the US, though I imagine the situation is similar.

It's absolutely cheating - it's plagiarism. It's no different in that regard than copying a paper found online, or having someone else write the paper for you. It's also a major self-own - these students have likely one opportunity to better themselves through higher education, and are trashing that opportunity with this shit.

I do agree that institutions need to adapt. Edit history is an interesting idea, though probably easy to work around. Imo, direct teacher-student interfacing would be the most foolproof, but also incredibly taxing on time and effort for teachers. It would necessitate pretty substantial changes to current practices.

Of course not. That's her head.

If those ~~children~~voters could read, they'd be very upset.

Letting lies online dictate your well-being is not great. It sucks, but the best thing to do is reply with the correction and move on. It's not within any of our powers to force others to accept truth, and it'll drive one to madness to try.

Same. It at least explains why Ncuti's exit felt kinda rushed. Here's hoping the main show finds its legs soon.

Link? I'm wondering how the car was found with only information from the wallet.

  1. Why does this person know what car the other person drives and where it is? Not exactly common info found in a wallet.

  2. Why not just stay where their car is? They'll obviously be back at some point.

The difference between a malicious idiot who lucked into power vs a malicious idiot that has now accumulated a cohort of even more malicious collaborators that actually know what they're doing.

Too many people were convinced this would just be the same as the last 4 years with him. I wonder if they've realized yet how wrong that assumption was.

Ashiok will also be the only PW card in WOE.

*Also also, apparently one PW per set will be the norm going forward!
