School shooters don't fit a single profile. Some of them are well liked and popular like Jaylen Fryberg and the perpetrators of Columbine were bullies themselves rather than being victims of school bullying.
I've found that Brave is the best web browser for my old Android 4.4.2 smartphone. Firefox is far too slow, Chrome is fast but it doesn't block ads, and those fake VPN ad blocking apps make my phone get hot, drain the battery, and adds an additional troubleshooting step if my internet stops working.
I use Brave browser plus adguard dns. They support dnscrypt and I've got it enabled on my OpenWrt router. Adguard does break the internet a little bit because they block those tracking links that quickly redirect you to the website that you wanted to go to. I think that the Pi-hole is a better option if you need or want to do any personalized customization to your block list.
If YouTube is willing to please their advertisers or decrease liability by banning content on hacking which could help people within the computer industry identify and prevent cyber attacks, then I wouldn't be surprised if YouTube banned everything related to drug harm reduction and educational content about how they work inside the human body for similar reasons.
> Eight minutes after takeoff, two of the angle-of-attack sensors froze at the same pitch.
If it's typical for the sensor's data to vary from 30.00 to 30.99 degrees as the wind passes over the wings and two sensors are permanently frozen at 10.42, after 8 minutes I think that there might be a high enough probability for the computer's software to decide that two sensors are broken and one is working.
Yes, I grew up with my Mom taking me to an expensive glasses store and the salesman's sales pitch was, "My stuff is the best because it's expensive". I didn't know anything because I was age 7 or 8. I was sort of indoctrinated into shopping there, but a few years ago an online store called Googles4u had a $10.00 for glasses and frames deal. It was likely as a loss-leader, but I realized that I didn't see any better out of the expensive Elissor / Hoya glasses with all of the top-of-the-line coatings than I did the no-name cheap glasses. They also made me feel a lot more relaxed. Before I was so worried about dropping them or losing them in the water but now I had a carefree attitude.
I credit some of my unpopularity in elementary school with growing up without cable television. All of the other children would watch Nickelodeon after school and the prizes on Legend Of The Hidden Temple would instruct them to ask their moms to buy them Jansport backpacks and AirWalk sneakers. I wasn't able to discuss yesterday's episode and didn't know how to dress to fit in.
As I discovered watching our kids go through school, if you had cable and the "in backpack", kids at school would almost certainly have found something else to dig at.
Those that react get picked on. If they can't single out lack of clothes, or knowing current music, they dig at too fat, too thin, wears glasses, wrong hair colour, wrong accent, you name it. In short if you react you lose.
I am much less open to the having all the same things to fit in argument than I was when I started on the parenting journey.
Parent wasn't concerned about being picked on but not being able to participate in the culture of the other children without cable TV.
There's a big personal preference there about whether or not you want your kids (or you yourself regret being or not being) involved heavily in the mainstream pop culture of your peers as children.
Experiencing more than just whatever is popular is important, but being very isolated can have effects as well. Whatever choices you make will have a strong impact, and there are very often not clear rights and wrongs.
Picked on or not able to participate is part of the same grouping that goes on in schools. For the most part is little to do with how much they are enabled or not to fit in.
Before being a parent I'd have inclined to agree with GP. The experience of seeing my kids progress, and their differing experience, through school leaves me believing it's nearly all down to personality. That of course is far harder for parents to influence. Course a kid with a sensitive disposition might well blame the lack of the right things as the reason to feel an outsider.
I think that it's more likely that the companies that manufacturer wiper blades run targeted ads in places where it's raining and that your son looked up the sheet music for the Seinfeld theme on his phone and Facebook thought you would like it because you are Facebook friends or because your GPS coordinates were next to each other.
Fair call - this reasoning I can relate to. I was the first spot of rain in a long dry season spell, so it stands to reason that drivers in the area were highly likely to have dried out, unserviceable wiper blades just when they needed it.
The link about friends search history and close GPS co-ordinates also makes sense.
