This is one of those cases where AI generated comment pasted over the original comments to poision the data comes in handy. So AI is training off AI.

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.

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.

I personally don’t want to be recorded. I dont have a choice in the matter with it not being illegal, but I’ll avoid people who are obviously recording when possible.

Can’t do much about people going out of their way to be discrete, but if they are trying to be discrete those people tend to be people who are aware others don’t like it but don’t care what others think.

But I don’t wanna be anywhere near anything connected to Facebook.

Same. That’s pretty much why. It doesn’t matter if it isn’t a Facebook device. People might be recording to upload to facebook related socials or end up reposting on facebook media socials. Its an uploading sharing social media society we live in.

I’m not going to go out of my way to stop someone recording. That just makes you stand out more, and end up content. So even if something is legal and people aren’t doing anything it doesn’t mean they are willingly consenting. They’ve accepted that’s how it is.

This is similar to the type of arguments made by those wanting increased surveillance with stuff like flock camera and ID online verification expansion. Pointing to the bad things in the world it helps prevent or track down that happens.

And pointing to the law to keep pushing what they are allowed to record and track.

Privacy and security has been a balancing act. And even examples of bad thing that happens I’m sure you can relate is the very common attempt at emotional appeal used by them.

Not denying your use case, but when it comes to surveillance they all seem to use the argument of safety.

Even then I could see people not wanting picture, video, or audio recorded of them even if it is just kept locally for private use. And that’s the problem of these glasses with trying to be discrete so people who would have avoided you or asked you to stop recording before having a conversation are left unaware.

Yeah, cheating with electronics is nothing new. Laptop and phones and internet has existed long before AI, and people could get outside help through messages to have people feed them answers.

Yet, schools dealt with it by either doing in class paper and pencil exams, or digital in class exams on locked down computers with no internet access and no desktop access with software like examsoft.

I’ve had even math teachers ban graphing calculators or provide use of in class graphing calculators well aware of notes that could be typed into them and programs made to solve answers before hand.

So all these current issues seem to be the result of either schools moving to take home, or letting people use personal electronics with full internet and file access during exams. Its like teachers lost the ability to say no to what is and isn’t allowed during exams.

I been testing it out for about a month and it is a nice OS, and been enjoying the HDR support. Did wonder why videos didn’t play initially though when I didn’t have trouble on Linux Mint and Ubuntu until I found out I had to install RPM fusion. But, after that smooth sailing so far.

Average users are fine on Linux. I set up my parents on it and they are able to launch their browser, email, etc and not bother with terminal. They didn’t have trouble adjusting from Windows and MacOS to Linux.

Only ones who have trouble are those who rely on specific software for work like Adobe or gamers who can’t go without certain Windows only games. But, average non gamer and non professional who wants to just use it for basic tasks are fine.

And depending on the distro like ones with long term support the UI isn’t going to keep changing up on them.

To be extra safe you should do

gpedit.msc -> Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> System -> Device Installation -> Prevent automatic download of applications associated with metadata

This is the type of stuff that leads to auto installs of applications such as logitech, razer, and in this case LG companion app.

Can’t really rely on ltsc, since it was utilizing Windows driver install process so any device that tries to do what LG did is a risk. Its why people with LG monitors found that app installed despite not having smart TV functionality.

That isnt enough since even dumb displays like LG monitors used Windows itself to install unwanted software on people’s PCs. Would have to actually disable that setting in Windows or use Linux.

The problem was you could do the right thing of keeping it offline, but that it used Windows to install unwanted software. Of course, solution is install Linux, but for the average user who decides to hook up their laptop and is using Windows they’d end up with unpleasant software installed.

And it affected LG monitors too, which means Windows PC users were affected.

I love my Nintendo 3DS and DSI. Both jailbroken and playing games on it versus emulating it has been a blast. And games are pretty unique because of the dual screen and stylus, so been the best console I’ve had by far.

This year I played through Hotel Dusk, Okamiden, and Trauma center on my DSI. And been playing through Super Mario 3D land with 3D effect. 3D effect from what I read works best on the last 3DS model since the eye tracking is better.
