gollark: I got an email from them (not even to me directly, forwarded from my parents) and:- the removed week of the summer term is being added to the end- they seem to expect to reopen in a month or so?- half the lessons will apparently now involve "human interaction", implying video calls or something, which will be *really annoying*, instead of having them just set work- they're running a timetable?!- I'm expected to be up by 08:45⸘
gollark: (that's not the annoying bit, I'm still typing)
gollark: So my school is being very annoying. There's been a somewhat longer easter holiday, but that ends soon and I'm going back to (remote) school.
gollark: Even with root, I've found it really irritatingly hard to do some things with my phone.
gollark: The situation is definitely better than with Apple stuff, but it's still annoying.
