    I had a math teacher at my stem highschool claim that the touch screens on the ipads worked by heat and that if you touch them too much the screen will get too warm and stop responding

    She also told students their computer was slow because they had too many desktop shortcuts, or hadn’t emptied their “trash” files.

    There was also an argument we had over whether something was actually a 3d vector or multiple 2d vectors but I don’t wanna dredge my memories for the exact details, it was dumb.

      I think the only way this could be any stupider is if she said it has cameras under the screen looking for where your fingers go.
