I've seen those videos, and they all look terrible.> There is also grass cover that is planted after the main crop season, that is later grazedGrazing compacts the soil, making it impossible to plant in without tilling. So no, this isn't workable.

No that doesn’t work - tried it.Google is basically its own private internet. It caches content so you can access all sorts of terrible stuff just from Google.com (and its related domains).But if you cut Google you cut Google Classroom - which is required.And Google Classroom itself has many workarounds.This isn’t just a Google problem. The centralization of the Internet around a few mixed content domains really kills conventional filtering.Paradoxically, there are so many central

Or Forth with scientific library, bound to the constraints. Put some HTTP library on top and some easy HTML interface from a browser with no JS/CSS3 support at all. It will look rusty but unexploitable.Enterprise computing with custom software will make a comeback to avoid these pitfalls. I depise OpenJDK/Mono because of patents but at least they come with complete defaults and a 'normal' install it's more than enough to ship a workable application for almost every OS
