Microsoft is just a bug.

It’s just too easy to dunk on MS these days. It’s like shooting fish in a barrel.

Twice. At point blank range. To the back of the head. With an elephant gun.

Have you ever tried to shoot fish in a barrel?

solsangraal ,

it’s not for the end user, it’s for the end user’s boss who wants to monitor all their worker drones’ productivity

conciselyverbose ,

They have better tools for that.

solsangraal ,

It's not for the end user's boss, it's there to collect data for the future Microsoft user behaviour analysis tools that will be sold to the end user's boss's boss.

solsangraal ,

it can be for 2 things

but it’s definitely not for the benefit of anyone who’s forced to use it

Why measure performance metrics in terms of output when we can just 1984 everyone’s workstation.

Im pretty sure that’s illegal in EU (or at least in Germany).

The fact that they won’t allow users to uninstall it should suggest some things about their motives.

Microsoft says it remains on track to preview Recall with Windows Insiders on Copilot Plus PCs in October, after the company has had more time to make major changes to Recall.

Just in time for Halloween. That’ll be sure to give people a good scare.

Altogether now children “It’s a bug until…it’s a feature!”

OF course they had to do it in reverse: it’s not a feature, it’s a bug.

I’m still on windows ten. Currently trying to switch to Linux. What are your plans when end of life /support comes to Windows ten?

rocketpoweredredneck ,

Im in the same boat, I’ll either move to some cracked version of windows without the recall bs, or more likely some linux distro.

ililiililiililiilili ,

There’s no reason to trust any homebrew or cracked Windows ISO. Just go with Win 10 LTSC. All the bullshit is removed and it has support until 2027. MAS flawlessly activates it. Linux is indeed the better option, and I’ll be heading that way soon enough.

TWeaK ,

Switch to Linux and run virtual machines when I need to use Windows.

Right now I don’t quite have the drive to do it, but an end to support for Windows 10 would push me over the edge. I just can’t stand Windows 11, not even because of all the bullshit but just the way it mandates the UI structure - last time I tried it my dealbreaker was that you can’t just have it always display all taskbar icons, you have to manually force each one to show. If a new icon comes up, it will be hidden.

this one drove me nuts.

let me use the damn computer the way i want to. its mine, i paid for it. let me use small taskbar icons. let me remove the ads.

SaharaMaleikuhm ,

I might try to setup Win 10 LTSC which has support until 2027, but I mostly use Mint these days. Would still like to avoid Win 11, even if I only use it for gaming.

That’s okay, I hit the Windows uninstall button back in April. It’s been quite nice ever since!

SplashJackson ,

I don’t get it. People riot over less. Why is there not more ire, anger, and vitriol online?

richieadler ,

People riot

It depends on the country, I’d say.

over less

What is “less” for you?

SplashJackson ,

I rioted once when I stubbed my toe. It was on a new Ikea bed which was a pain to put together, and the fact that it continued to cause me pain just set me over the edge. I went right down to the harbour and threw everything into the water, because let Posidon deal with it, only the bed got me back because I picked the wrong crates, I chucked my tea into the water instead. I was sad. It was 1772
