a friend of mine got a CASIO watch with an integrated IR emitter and would always cause havoc when the TV was out

[–] Lost_Wanderer 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Had a different version of that Casio. Loved it. Let my friend use it in 8th grade and got it confiscated until the end of the year. Was bummed. Haven't used it in years. Bet it still works on a good number of TVs

How is that legal?

Teachers can only confiscate childrens items until the end of the school day and in some cases until the parents come to school. Anytime longer would be theft.

oh god, not another class watching contact

I swear I watched that movie 9 times one year.

why build one when you can have two for just twice the price?

Why is the image AI-generated? Legit, how difficult is it to find a picture of a TV cart?

Why though? It looks so weird my first thought was "Don't feel like posting today so...I used AI to do it for me".

Clearly this is not what you meant but, still, I agree with the other guy, you couldn't find a normal picture?

[–] fossilesque@mander.xyz 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I didn't make the original, it was 15 layers deep of jpeg, and I can upscale it in 3 seconds with an app.

[–] Treachery4524@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ahh I see, so including the text

[–] fossilesque@mander.xyz 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Yup, you can see the artifacting on the text.

Taught me so much! I remember watching Gandhi 😊

When I was a kid, my teachers brought this out when it was time to watch Voyage of the Mimi.

[–] AGuyAcrossTheInternet@fedia.io 4 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Always in the last week before Summer break. Bob L'Éponge in French class, Mr Bean in English class, Staplerfahrer Klaus occasionally (don't google that one if gore isn't your thing) and throughout the year, of course, documentaries.

I didn't realize just how often we've used these.

[–] azi@mander.xyz 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Mr Bean for English class is so fucking funny. "Surely the show with next to no dialogue will teach them English"

[–] AGuyAcrossTheInternet@fedia.io 4 points 1 month ago

My English teacher's excuse was always that learning about culture was important, too. And now I know that three-wheeled cars are very dangerous to drive in the vicinity of Mini Coopers!

[–] flora_explora 3 points 1 month ago

Hahahaha, thanks for reminding me of Staplerfahrer Klaus <3

He was cool, but I still proffered Mr.Wizard.
