Do teachers who do this really think it discourages the disruptive kid

The key thing here is that this isn’t designed to directly discourage the kid, the purpose of doing this is to get the other kids to let’s say do some creative persuasion techniques to not do that again. You might recognize this as one of the stereotypical methods that a military would do when dealing with problem soldier, punish the whole unit/squad instead of the single soldier.

Yes, because it’s bourgeoisie decadence.

No I will not explain.

Look sometimes you just want to order a 40 piece nuggets and be in and out in 5 minutes. It also helps that I work 3rd shift, and it’s like the quickest place (and one of the few places still open) for me to get something to eat on break if I end up sleeping all day before my shift.

If I recall, the whole thing why the federation and cardassian cold war didn’t really go hot (like sure they were skirmishes here and there) was because Starfleet was still firmly in recovery mode from Wolf-359 at the time. Which eventually led to the demilitarization zone between the federation and cardassia, and which caused the federation and cardassian colonists in said dmz to start their own war themselves.

The whole thing with Bajor ended up falling into that because again, Wolf-359 really fucked Starfleet up.

Okay, at the risk of being that person, the F-35 loses in a stand up fight because it’s not designed in a doctrine sense to get in stand up fights. On paper it’s designed to leverage its status as a stealth fighter to avoid those stand up fights by either avoiding them entirely or get one of the most important things in a A2A engagement, getting the first missile salvo off.

So regardless on how actually good the F-35 is, having it’s blueprints to have the knowledge on how to counteract it is still incredibly useful in case it happens to be very good for what it’s designed to do.
