Recall to take screenshots every 2 seconds

[DownPW]

you talking about Recall ?

[phenomlab]

@DownPW Yes, exactly

Seems as though Microsoft has started making positive changes to recall.

Microsoft is making changes to a controversial feature announced for its new range of PCs powered by artificial intelligence after it was flagged as a potential “privacy nightmare”.

This is a terrible idea! Doesn’t MS already have enough issues with spyware getting on their OS, why do they need to encourage it even more, but not only that, help out those that would exploit this. I seriously don’t know how all these companies that run MS still choose MS. Are there plusses to running all MS, yes there sure are, but the security is c**p and I would rather have secure over the plusses of MS.

@Madchatthew I think this is probably “one for the purists”. I do run Windows at home for work reasons, and will be disabling this.

@phenomlab yeah I have windows as well. It is windows 10 so next year I will have to delete it and install linux on it. I really hate the windows 11 requires the new tpm but what do ya do. I know there is a way to still install windows 11 and bypass the tpm part, but then I have also read there can be issues with that and OS upgrades aren’t as easy. Unless I missed something. I would be disabling this feature as well.

@Madchatthew Yes, Windows 11 has very strict requirements around TPM and even processor requirements. My current laptop is more than capable of running Windows 11 but won’t because it’s not listed as being compatible.

Not that it matters to me - my laptop runs KDE Neon

That is a really nice distro.
