    They can’t!

    As a teacher in luddite Germany: yes our smartboards still Run Windows Media Player + I need that bar visible so I’m able to stop the movie at the correct teachable scene.

    (And before anyone suggests making a custom playlist with vlc and all those newfangled contraptions from around 2005: I don’t even have admin rights to change the sound volume…)

    I’ve been in full corporate business leadership meetings where someone is sharing screen over zoom, but they have their PowerPoint windowed and one edge of it is slightly hanging off the side of the viewable screen.

    What I’m saying is this sort of thing doesn’t go away after you finish school

    My (estranged) wife and kids seem content to watch streaming services this way, I’m genuinely just like what the fuck is wrong with y’all, I taught y’all better than this lol

    Come to think of it, maybe that’s why the marriage didn’t work out.

    Definitely not her chronically cheating for a decade. Nope. It was leaving the play bar up!

      As a teacher, I can confirm this. I always move the cursor out of the way, though. I don’t get why other teachers don’t do the same and how so many of them are so tech illiterate. Although I’m more amazed at the tech illiteracy of the students who use their phones 24/7.
