They are bringing pen and paper back to university exams, because of rampant cheating last 2 years.
Which dumbasses ever left pen and paper in uni anyway?
Not just gen z. It's because tech sucks now.
It is 2026. Post-it notes are now a "free office-perk".
You can be pretty sure a hand written note isn't AI slop, at least.
Okay, so if I need to take a quick note of something, I can either navigate to the appropriate program, wait for it to open, select new note, wait for it to crash, reopen the program, wait for the computer to freeze, reboot, log back in, open the program and then type in what I want.
Or I can scribble something on the back of a piece of paper with a pen.
