MAIN HATRED: AI IN STUDENT WORK
I'm sorry, so fucking angry. Students with sources that don't exist. Students with sources that exist but then the quotation doesn't exist.
I'm so fucking mad, because it's extra work for me (that I'm sure as hell not getting compensated for), and it also entirely defeats the purpose of the fucking class (it's writing/research, so like, engaging in a discipline and looking at what's been written before on your topic, etc.)
Kill me please. Comrades, I'm so tired. I just want to teach writing. I want to give students a way to exercise agency in the world -- to both see bad arguments and make good ones. They don't care. I'm so tired.
BTW, I took time to look up some of these sources my student used, couldn't find the quotes they quote, so told them the paper is an "A" if they can show me every quotation and failing otherwise. Does this seem like a fair policy (my thought is -- no matter the method, fabrication of evidence is justification for failing work)?
. I pray to you Saint Luigi, save me. I was a customer service supervisor taking constant abuse daily while trying my absolute best to make a good environment for my employees. Ultimately how well I performed my job was determined to be unnecessary. I don't know what comes next but today I'm just gonna get absolutely black out drunk. Already downed a bottle of wine...

Main Windows 10 Question
Hey Hexbears! I'm running a Windows 10 machine, and I want to watch some relaxing videos for sleep on it. I don't want my computer to be on all night, and sleep/hibernate don't really work for my needs. I need a way to fully shut down the computer on idle, while watching media. Does anyone know the best way to do this? Before anyone suggests, no, I can't use Linux. My monitors and soundcard hate it and the problems are non-fixable.
Is Cammy still around?
We were talking about doing some music stuff, but they seem to have gone MIA the past few months.
@[email protected] if you're still around, holler!
