Try lua as a middle ground. It's object based but more classical with the syntax.

Why would you paint the sky on the ceiling and then add chandeliers?! It feels like a fallout bunker.

I didn't say that. Wrong comment chain.

I'm a communist. You guys came to debate yourselves.

Web UI for touch screens is a lot different than keyboard and mouse. I still switch to desktop most of the time because the mobile site will lack critical info, though. They "have" to streamline the experience for mobile, but I hate it when they fully remove features.

It was more the dicks showing up in class unprompted. Then, it was people sharing links to shock sites. Now we have to worry about people stealing information. That was always a thing, it's just a lot more common now.

Edit: I also have to admit, I remember helping the teacher enough with their computer to get Admin privileges by using their console. It was literally stuff liking helping them make a PowerPoint full-screen. I'd download games and then dispense them through little known shared files on the network (usually old forgotten projects). I'd also save shortcuts to google proxies. In hindsight, that was exactly the kind of thing they're probably trying to stop. I was pirating stuff at a young age. I definitely could've downloaded malware and shared it with the network.

I said the opposite of what I meant, my bad. I didn't want to doxx myself and I tripped up.

I meant to say late. Are you gen z and getting old aswell? (Not an insult, I'm legit asking)

I'm the oldest of Gen z (late 1990s). I have two younger siblings who are also Gen Z. Typing was a skill we learned in middleschool/ elementary. When I was about 8, we learned how to use google because it was considered a great resource to find information. By the time my middle sibling was in similar classes, they moved away from Google due to NSFW search results. When my youngest sibling was in school, they worried about shock sites.

They've slowly been removing computers from the school curriculum because of fear of outside forces. That includes typing, sadly. This is all coming from someone who grew up in a Plato self self education plan. (Online, self studies)
