Whether its meta or not, discrete wearable video recording is not something I am in favor of. Like the recent LG spyware installing on people's Windows PC shows, many tech companies aren't in the business of being privacy respecting in the products they offer. It's usually those companies that gain market share.

And individuals with how quick they are to live stream and share every picture and video voluntarily to social media sites doesn't much lend to responsible use either. At least those people aren't usually hiding that they are recording.

When it comes to legal audio wiretapping those are already sufficient in places where it is legal to be used in cases like yours. So I don't much see a need to further extend hidden audio recordings to also include hidden video recordings with wearables. Cases where video is also needed seem more like very specific niche cases involving investigations, so to shift it to being an every day casual accessory I dont see as necessary.

How many music streaming services and digital downloads of mp3 and flacs remain playable on only certain hardware?

The music digital space is much more open than console games, which will only work on very specific hardware. And DRM free downloads. Music is one space that is surprisingly pro consumer when it comes to compatibility and control of purchases.

If consoles were as open as PCs, being able to install any OS and programs on it then physical shift would be less of an issue on consoles. Consoles are so locked down they can get away with paywalling multiplayer, and even jailbreak can't really bypass that.

That is how exams usually are though for classes like physics, chemistry, and physics where memorization won't save you with it being solving problems to arrive to the correct solution.

Something like anatomy is pure memorization so being memorization is no issue, since it is just learning names of musicles, nerves, and bones. And when it comes to classes like physiology it builds on knowing what you knew from anatomy, but being tested on how well you can actually explain the mechanisms of what is going on within the body.

I guess it depends on the subject if an exam is just memorization based or not and leaves students knowing nothing.

I found out through South Park. I thought it was a knock off pokemon satire they made.

Not using tiktok and similar socials has me missing out on lot of stuff like that. And being less in the know about what influencers are pushing.

I was so amazed how something so big didn't reach me when it's not like I dont use the internet and was using social media like reddit.

True, but every option comes down to a hypothetical scenario which does speak of how it is at a decent place.

And pc being an open hardware open OS system makes it so people can just hop to something, and have alternative means like piracy if worst comes to worse.

PC benefit in the end is control over hardware, the programs we can run on it, and modifications that can be done to it. Something that requires hoping for jailbreaks when it comes to consoles.

Linux becoming more user friendly and accessible is a plus though for individuals who like diy PCs, but stuck with Windows due to game support. Compared to then and now moving away from Microsoft is less of a hassle. That is pretty huge for long time Windows PC gamers. Not just for gaming, but regular usage of computers.

From the sounds of it you dont like pc gaming in general, and that is fine. Do hope you can see how a non corporate OS alternative is a win though. Just having an option that is not a huge downgrade to a trillion dollar backed OS is amazing.

You are on the fediverse after all which is an alternative from company run social media like reddit. Which also has its ups and downs when it comes to accessibility much like PC gaming, but there are similar pros to it too that some giving it a chance.

Hopefully clears before parts go up even more.

That explains why it didn't work for me when I tried to use it on my Steam Deck.

I'm sure that's the argument Meta is making for their glasses.

People aren't any better, since people are more likely to be recording specifically for the purposes of resharing and we do live in a social media age.

And these devices as they gain popularity would be relaying information back to the companies anyways, so make the claims of it being local or private not matter when that wouldn't be the average wearable discrete tech that would gain mainstream popularity.

Looks like that type was 'All Memory'

Yeah, I think archiving the programs would lead to surviving a reset.

Then use locked down computers that doesn't do anything, but display the exam and student can select multiple choice and type where prompted?

Its all solutions that existed before AI. Nothing has really changed over the past decade when it comes to not allowing or restricting electronics during exams other than schools forgetting they can do that.

Students looking up answers over the internet or getting text messages were just as much of a problem as AI if exams allowed students to bring those devices and use it freely. Even graphing calculator usage was restricted by smarter teachers aware of its note storing and program capabilities.
