Take a look in JJB Sports. They had some the other day when my mate went and bought some. There is one for racism now, its two bands, a black and a white joined.

Our school looking at banning them. They said they support up supporting charities etc but in an e-mail from a member of staff to a senior member of staff then to all staff it said the following:

From member of staff to senior

...Secondly, the number of 'charity' wrist bands/badges on ties on some pupils (3 or 4 of different colours) is making it seem inappropriate to challenge other pupils for wearing 'normal' jewellery.

Reply from senior to all was:

...We have always applauded pupils that have supported charities, and have allowed them to wear a badge on their tie.This has recently been extended to wristbands, but I am only aware of 2 colours. Would you please enquire via your tutors what the 'state of play' is at present? If appropriate, we'll meet to discuss restrictions.

It's stupid, I wish they would just make their mind up.

I work at a school as a school secretary... BULLYING HAPPENS, more often than not. I just told my high school daughter about this post and she said mom no one bullies... but she is wrong...

we get phone calls from parents about their kids being bullied everyday!

Its just not right... but how to stop it???

    • AI is indeed eliminating jobs, and Oracle just proved it

      By Jdoe25 · Posted

      I know an idiot at work who is "Director for innovation projects" and inevitably has been tasked with following up on this whole trend of "AI and its work applicability". He recently sent out a survey on the topic, for the workforce to disclose their usage and attitudes towards AI. The survey was badly, sloppily typed out, the questions and answers (when multiple choices) were loosely correlated and, all and all, it would already be miserable in the times of MS Office Autocorrect alone. Then, I had AI responding to it all (on the open-ended questions) with beautiful, to-the-point prose after I provided it with minor but proper guidance, taking me under 10 minutes. All this to say that I am sure that if AI comes to replace someone, it will still be me, and the other idiot will still stay.

    • Microsoft fixes one of Excel Copilot's most frustrating limitations

      By Abercrombe · Posted

      Call me when you can say, "Find all duplicate rows with duplicate email addresses and move the duplicate rows to a new sheet", and Copilot can execute that and not give you VBScript to write to do it. If anyone thinks AI isn't in its infancy and the bubble is about to burst, try to do anything meaningful in Excel with Copilot and you will realize AI hasn't even made it to kindergarten in most use cases yet.
    • Microsoft releases major feature updates for stock Windows 11 apps

      By Neeo · Posted

      I have installed all their components from store.rg-adguard.net. I encountered an unusual issue with Microsoft Edge that I installed manually. When I disable “Shadows under windows” in the Windows performance settings, the menus in Edge display sharp corners instead of rounded ones. I don't think the problem is related to a debloated version of Windows, as I experienced the same issue on a standard Windows machine in the past.

      "AI has just arrived, how is it possible they're already losing jobs?” Huang said." Hey idiot. It's called these stupid companies spending too much on your AI ###### and having to layoff employees to cover the cost.
