Just have to zoom out a little, nothing to it.
I know that tone of "Let's talk."
Kid, if anything ever goes wrong that requires intelligence, you are now in a very short of list of kids to blame first.
From the last answer, it sounds like they would only need to turn in their SIM card.
Should have run the responses by the staff member nobody likes to play against on board game night.
Better response than the teacher's:
Points for trying, but your series of questions are irrelevant non sequiturs.
Phones are banned, not just your, or any other particular physically manifested instance of the sublime, intangible, transcendent ideal of 'a phone'.
The teachers answer is perfect. If the phone has the same number then it's the same phone. If it has a different number then it's going to be a pain for the student to update all his contacts "new phone, who dis"

Yeees wtf. Why are they cut off
What is your favorite brand of air fryer? It has come to my attention that air fryer's brought to school may be liable for confiscation. Regardless, how are you doing on this fine October morning?

Banning cell phones in school while school shootings are a regular occurrence is top tier decision making
Students can keep a phone in their bag if they really need it. The fact that we ever allowed kids to scroll instead of paying attention in class is absurd.
I haven't been to school in a while, but we had smartphones when I did. And if we took up our phones in class we got called out by the teacher.
My kids school “boxes” phones if you’re caught using them or they interrupt class. They lock them inside a clear plastic case and let you carry that.
This avoids liability because the kid still has possession of their phone and can still see an emergency text or call. The can’t interact with the phone but can get a teacher to unlock if there’s a visible emergency text
“It’s fine if it’s in a bag and off or silent” has been cell phone policy in my experience (decades ago).
That's the policy at most schools. Actually enforcing that in the face of a classroom of kids who don't respect the rule? That's a much bigger problem. They're a lot more clever at sneaking them out than you would think. Moreover, if the phones are just feet from them, their presence is never out of mind. They're a constant distraction even in a bag. Phone apps are literally designed to be addictive. Imagine if we had a rule that said "crack pipes are fine in your bag. As long as you don't take them out and smoke in class, you're fine." Even if we lived in a world where crack somehow was legal for minors to have, how effective to you think that rule could be enforced?

Thankfully, there's an official standard for using the internet with just carrier pigeons: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_over_Avian_Carriers
"...this technology suffers from extremely high latency."
And high packet loss.
You know, pigeons probably do have relatively high latency but I bet a carrier pigeon could carry at least three SD cards, meaning a pigeon has hella bandwidth.

This is why you have to factor in the airspeed velocity of your laiden and unlaiden ~~swallows~~ pigeons.

I can't believe they removed the photo of a dead pigeon captioned "An example of packet loss."

That kid who asked about radios should be given a scholarship to a STEM degree. Also the kids who asked about using smoke signals and pigeons have mad creativity. The stock kid? Well he probably has more financial accumen than most Wallstreet punks.
The kid with the replacement dilemma? Forget philosophy. That is lawyer material right there.
That reminds me of my previous work. We couldn't but PCs from our project budget, because they are classified along furniture (because they should outlive the duration of a project), but we can buy replacement/repair parts. So yeah... Enough replacement parts make for a new PC.

Not the Ship of Theseus in the last one ☠️
Cell of Theseus
I often forget that while young people aren't usually too wise to the ways of the world, that doesn't mean they're not fucking smart!
Woke to this reading a senior (high school) paper of mine 35-years later. Figured it would be childish. Holy shit! I wrote that at 17?!
Now if I could get the brain plasticity back and tack on the wisdom, I'd be a beast brain. :(

I don't know who's teaching these kids and I want to congratulate both teachers and kids for an awesome education. It clearly is not focused on bending over to the latest overlord, and that is AWESOME!!!!
Real honestly. Fuck US education and fuck the pay teachers get handed as a "livable" wage. There is an education drought. It's insane it's now a crime to text your mother what you want for dinner.

The whole FAQ: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rTAVSRU60ScQnQADF2WRAPKQFWRfYxM1B-mZCC1B_SA/mobilebasic
Some of them are pretty funny
Who needs phones when we have air fryers…
Also, it feels like "admin" doesn't necessarily agree with the new policy.

Banning phone and not gun is wild
I mean, I'm pretty sure guns are banned.
For now...
(I don't think that law passed allowing teachers to carry, but just a matter of time before they try again)

Guns are banned in most schools
I think if you sold off your stock before it became public information you’d be in deep poopie doopie.
Eh, not if you’re already rich. gestures broadly to the wealthy that do so and suffer no consequence
~~So dance, fucker, dance.~~
Thats the wrong song, uh? Jay commited suicide?
"So dance fucker dance" is You're gonna go far, kid.
"Jay committed suicide (Brandon OD'd and died)" is The kids aren't alright.
Both Offspring, tho.
