A shower curtain of a very important, and well known document from your country such as the Charter of Rights and Freedoms from Canada, or Declaration of Independence from the US. If you live in a country that still recognizes the British monarch, you could also put up a photo of the king (very common in government and military buildings)
This is what I've been trying to accomplish. While I've been able to get it to work; I generally have relatively poor performance for gaming.
By chance do you game and have had enough success with the GPU pass through to play? What's your setup like?
Pro tip: you can use the plastic tabs from bread bags as little wire tags
Sorry for the late reply, I had to sit and think on this one for a little bit.
I think there are would be a few things going on when it comes to designing a course to teach critical thinking, nuances, and originality; and they each have their own requirements.
For critical thinking: The main goal is to provide students with a toolbelt for solving various problems. Then instilling the habit of always asking "does this match the expected outcome? What was I expecting?". So usually courses will be setup so students learn about a tool, practice using the tool, then have a culminating assignment on using all the tools. Ideally, the problems students face at the end require multiple tools to solve.
Nuance mainly naturally comes with exposure to the material from a professional - The way a mechanical engineer may describe building a desk will probably differ greatly compared to a fantasy author. You can also explain definitions and industry standards; but thats really dry. So I try to teach nuances via definitions by mixing in the weird nuances as much as possible with jokes.
Then for originality; I've realized I dont actually look for an original idea; but something creative. In a classroom setting, you're usually learning new things about a subject so a student's knowledge of that space is usually very limited. Thus, an idea that they've never heard about may be original to them, but common for an industry expert.
For teaching originality creativity, I usually provide time to be creative & think, and provide open ended questions as prompts to explore ideas. My courses that require originality usually have it as a part of the culminating assignment at the end where they can apply their knowledge. I'll also add in time where students can come to me with preliminary ideas and I can provide feedback on whether or not it passes the creative threshold. Not all ideas are original, but I sometimes give a bit of slack if its creative enough.
The amount of course overhauling to get around AI really depends on the material being taught. For example, in programming - you teach critical thinking by always testing your code, even with parameters that don't make sense. For example: Try to add 123 + "skibbidy", and see what the program does.
College professor here. The way I see it, AI is inevitable and it's here to stay. Fighting against AI would be like trying to fight against pocket calculators in the 70s. It's coming whether we like it or not, in class and in the real world; so we need to focus on adjusting the curriculums to work with it, rather than against it.
Right now, a lot of course curriculums are predominantly regurgitation based learning: I'll tell you X, you tell me X but in 3 months. But AI trivializes that way of thinking. If I want to, I can get ChatGPT to generate an entire essay on the impact of ink drying speeds to the colour of grass. Whatever I want, it takes it 10s to write. However, LLMs still struggle with critical thinking, nuances, and originality; which I think is the more important aspect of education.

It looks like an issue with the file system. I don't have a steam deck, but are you able to make sure the ssd is seated correctly? Are you able to try inserting a different one?

I've lost all respect for Bungie at this point. Their games have been shit for a few years, but this is a really low bar...

Right... so why did you take the position of Secretary of Health, again?
I hate that we already know that there's going to be bullshit in every bill that hits the floor; but it's just going to carry on through without resistance
Sure - AOC is "tearing it apart", but the republicans don't give a shit, they'll will just vote in favour regardless, and it'll get passed
Also, what's the point of voting anyway? Wouldn't DOGE just make the cuts anyway?
Not a GUI, but I keep my ~/.ssh/config clean by splitting my configs into folders, and including them in the main ~/.ssh/config.
I have the folder, ~/.ssh/config.d/, and here's what it looks like:
undefined
~/.ssh/config.d
.
├── work
│ ├── dev.config
│ ├── staging.config
│ └── prod.config
└── server
├── development.config
├── containers.config
├── home.config
├── pis.config
└── server.config
Then my ~/.ssh/config looks like this:
undefined
Include config.d/work/* Include config.d/server/* Include config.d/other/*

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has warned the National Weather Service of possible attacks from an armed conspiracy group targeting Doppler radar stations, according to a report from CNN. The group, Veterans on Patrol, is going after government radars because it believes they're being used as "weather weapons."
CNN learned of the possible attacks through NOAA emails warning NWS staff that Veterans on Patrol was planning to conduct "penetration drills on NEXRAD sites to identify weaknesses," with the ultimate goal of destroying NEXRAD. Despite its cooler-than-average name, the NWS uses NEXRAD or "Next Generation Weather Radar" for a fairly mundane purpose: detecting precipitation in the atmosphere. NEXRAD plays a vital role in locating thunderstorms and tornados, making it easier to evacuate vulnerable communities before disaster strikes.

I don't think legitimate ICE agents would have backed down. Sounds like an attempted kidnapping...
I've used a non-touch DisplayLink USB monitor before. You might run into issues with getting it to work properly based on your OS. DisplayLink and Debian were not friends, and took a lot of messing around with drivers and other apps to get it to work. I can't speak for other OSs though
If your budget allows for it: a ring. I've got a ring with my initials on it, 30+ years later
I'm concerned about going to the US for the same reasons why I'm concerned about family coming to Canada: dealing with US customs.
However, they're US citizens so I can't imagine that they'd have paperwork to go back to the US. Then without paperwork to make mistakes on, they should be less likely to get incarcerated, right?

Hey everyone!
For those that have crossed the US / Canadian border recently: what was your experience when going through US customs? Were you harassed / detained? Any tips to prepare for crossing?
My SO and I were talking earlier about having some family come up from the US to Canada to visit us. I suggested maybe they should wait a bit due to the apparent unhinged behaviour of US Customs; However, while my SO doesn't deny the stories, she believes they might be rare cases & blown out of proportion by the media. She found out that the Vancouver woman that was detained for ~2 weeks also had improper paperwork - which is often left out by the media. While the detainment duration is still totally unjustified, the initial detainment was caused by the improper paperwork.
So I'm reaching out to those that actually cross the border to see what's actually going on; as the media can be fanatical sometimes.
Thanks in adv

EDIT: Consensus has been achieved, original post below. General consensus is that people haven't had issues with US customs, as long as all the paperwork is in order.
Thanks to everyone who commented, I greatly appreciate your input!
