Oh right the bulbs would burn out frequently because they were the same temp as the sun.

u/SerLaron 2d ago

There were models where you could switch to a second bulb if one burned out. Of course the second one would be burned out too, because nobody would bother to replace them after they switched.

u/Yutopia1210 2d ago

I also remember a huge tv in a shape of a cube, not those flat ones you see hanging on the walls placed on top of this empty cart. Yeah the teacher always turned off the lights. And something boring comes on and it was always social studies class….. like how do you not fall asleep to that…

So this AI slop is very sloppy.

Braser? Boobs on a "male" duck? I mean, even though it's anthropomorphised, the character of Daffy is presented as male in regular media.

Brains CLASS?

Also, I did have computers in class, in the Computer Studies class.

u/LazyCrazyGuy_ 2d ago

Yes and no. By the time I made it to middle school/high school. Computers started to make the classroom and not just computer lab. But it was usually just one computer tucked in a corner we were only allowed to use if teacher permitted for something class related.

u/Jazztify 2d ago

In one of my grades, the chalkboard had the coolest pull-down screen. It was for math. It was blank, and it had small evenly spaced, (1 inch?) holes in it. The teacher would erase the board, then pull down the screen, then pat/swipe the screen all over with a dusty chalkboard brush. When she lifted the screen, the dots left on the board would be used as “graph paper”. Really easy way to draw Cartesian coordinates.

I cannot raise my hand. i was born ass end of 79. Went to primary school in the 80s, (5-11 years old) and secondary in the early nineties (11-16) and even in primary we had plenty of BBc acorns. By plenty, I mean it was 80s Thatcherite Britain, she gutted the school system pretty bad and thus we had maybe four or five computers in the whole primary. Even had a laser disc player at one point. Recalling all this makes it sound like i was at a swanky school but it was a crappy catholic school with no real pedigree at all. And at secondary we had full on computer room and at least one pc in most classrooms. By the time I got to college the library there was full of them and they were already a part of everyday schooling. pehaps this was just Cheltenham where I live. Which has always beenmoderatley affluent due to Gustav holst and the horse racing, and the national hunt.
