So that you understand the point.

If I would be on Windows, I would ask for a Windows solution

In my school the teacher locked them under the desk and brought them to the Principal’s office after class.

I never heard that any phone got stolen

Did the teachers stole the phones or how did that even happen? 💀

as the kids just take them out as soon as the teacher turns their back

When I was in school the teacher’s were seizing the phone if they caught you with it in class and sometimes require your parents to pick it up after school

I never blamed Linux for it, I would have the same problem with Windows or MacOS.

But since I use Linux, I ask for a solution that works on Linux

Having multiple romantic relationships sounds very stressful to me

How can I look for what a specific user got banned (wihtout searching the entire history) ?

Is there rep farming on lemmy?

I thought that Karma or total up/down vote accounts are not a thing here?

I’m pretty sure the packages are built as unprivileged users in a sandbox, and you can also restrict what users can use certain Nix features.

Are Nix packages sandboxed by default?

Psychologically the carrot is better than the stick, meaning you’ll keep fighting the lock-out mechanism, eventually resenting it and removing it.

The logout mechanism just needs to though me out of my way and take at least 5 minutes (better more) to circumvent, this will probably be enough for me to do the right thing.

Having an alert to remind you that you wanted to stop will be more pursuasive. (I have a “go to bed” alarm with a gentle, gradually increasing volume on my phone)

I tried this for many times, but ended up just dismising the alarms because my will is weak

I think if the license is revocable, then you never really own even a copy.

I only fully trust licenses that use wording like: "All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated conditions are met. " (from GPLv3) “Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of, publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.” (from ApacheV2)

I do them with Linux, why is this so hard to understand?

As I only use sudo to update my system, I could use a user that doesn’t has sudo access and set up some a cron job to do updates once a day. And flatpak instalation and updating doesn’t require sudo at all

Not necessary the operating system it self, but the things I do with Linux, like researching stuff, enganging in discussion’s and playing games, are addictive for me

Will it be possible to set multiply block times?

I think if it will take longer then 5 minutes to circumvent it, then I will do the right thing

Is this the Github of it: https://github.com/linux-pam/linux-pam ?

Could I pam_time root or something that has a higher rank and a different password then my main user?

It all depends on how “forced” you want to be.

I would say: It should take at least 3 minutes (better more) to circumvent it.

Generally, in Linux, if you’ve installed it, you have the power to uninstall it. Once your lockout gets put in effect, you can boot from USB, mount the hard drive, modify the files necessary to bypass your lockout, then reboot and proceed as if your lockout didn’t exist.

This sounds like it would take me around 10 minutes, so its enough for me to stop and do what I should be doing instead.

So I can’t stop it or change it because it has a higher rank and a different password then my main user?

I think schools should give more control to the students about what and how they want to learn, I always hated it that they forced me to learn things I am not interested in and will probably never use in my life
