Pearson is the worse
Not surprising
Yeah I’m not going to buy ebooks that expire so quickly.
Books… doing what? Expire?
Yeah wtf. That’s kinda books whole thing. They just sorts exist until they naturally end up in a charity shop.
Seriously, fuck Pearson. Garbage company.
It’s kinda wild that an IT Certification company can’t handle Linux, but I’m sadly not surprised.
“Upgrade”
Just like they asked you to upgrade to ie in the 90s a d early 00s.
“Operating”
“System”
I have this exact problem when I have to manage Apple devices for work. Nothing that user agent switcher can’t fix.
Pearson is a testing company. They use all sorts of sketchy shit under the guise of anti-cheating. Much of that requires specific plug-ins and stuff that only work in Windows.
Even if you could get it working, but they’ll likely just say you were cheating, and take the $300+ you paid to take that required test.
All it takes is one class action suit. Wait for it
Pearson using all sorts of extremely invasive and questionable kernel-level access plugins to make sure people don’t open notes to cheat on their test on their computer. People just open their notes on another device. Or, you know, paper.
Or, you know, paper.
- That’s what desk/workspace scanning in the most extreme cases is meant to detect. This is why I really don’t like online schooling, because in the absolute worst case, your school will literally scan your place.
You know what would be a really good way to show if your students learned your course material? Let them show it with a practical test of some kind…
The only solution for that is to proctor exams in person on their equipment. Miss me with all that nonsense. Makes me glad I’m done with schoolin’ for now…
Oh Pearson definitely does thst as well. But not everyone lives near or has reliable transit to a testing facility. Online testing is essentially a requirement for those people.
Linux will never become relevant on the desktop until its has better spyware support.
No ty. :)
Let me guess, it’s a webpage?
the “key features” being the ones with drm
Haha eat me :)
