gollark: My IP is 2a00:23c7:5401:a500:1ee6:715a:99db:dda1 if anyone cares.
gollark: Microsoft Teams.
gollark: The (a) really annoying part is that the platform we use has a perfectly good forms/quiz tool which would allow answering questions without the annoying hassle, but no teachers are using it.
gollark: It turns out that I *can* edit this PDF without horrible trouble, but it's very annoying and inconvenient.
gollark: It turns out that this whole "online work" thing my school is now doing is very inconvenient, They seem to expect me to physically *print out* the worksheets and manually photograph my answers?
