Satya Nadella says Windows PCs will have a photographic memory feature called Recall that will remember and understand everything you do on your computer by taking constant screenshots. This is a great reason to ditch windows altogether. Switch to #Linux 🧑💻 They don’t care about your privacy or safety anymore and not hiding it either.

@nixCraft Linux had a similar feature years ago. It was designed to track everything you did, so you could find "That document I was editing last Tuesday" or "The music I was listening to while coding that application" and all manner of other complex searches. It was shipped by default in multiple distros. I don't think it took screenshots, but it gathered a hell of a lot of useful, searchable data.
I'll straight up pull a Cooper Howard on every person responsible for this in the apocalyptic wasteland when it comes.
I'm not a violent person, but this fucker has the AUDACITY to sit there and fucking LIE to me because he thinks I'm too stupid to realize it. dude needs a reality adjustment with a sock full of oranges.
@nixCraft, fsck that. Did Nadella consider the privacy implications? MS forcing accounts, telemetry, and now screenshots of the desktop to teach AI to build literally a interest profile of the user. This is all a bridge to far for me. Great for additional ad-revenue on a paid software (or is it service now?).
Granted, only a couple of my straggler PCs run Windows 10, but yea, not moving to Windows 11.
@nixCraft All these features are just making us humans more and more dumber. It shouldn't be a struggle to remember what you did. No thanks, I will just uninstall windows....
@nixCraft yeah, only think I'm sure, is that it will be used for reselling very precise data about users. They just want excuse to hoard it in such a scale.
@nixCraft I still have to keep Windows (10) around for some things, but I cut off all updates right before they rolled out the Copilot crap. I'm a bit worried about the potential problems from lack of updates, but I'm 1,000,000x more worried about the potential problems *from* updates... I've had some pains trying to switch to Linux (particularly in gaming) but have mostly managed to finally completely switch over just in time though. Congratulations MS on chasing away even hardcore gamers.
