Windows Recall AI snapshots stored in an unencrypted SQL file in appdata. Apparently. Already there is scripts to install it on unsupported devices.

I think I should point out that my previous faith in Microsoft was because the consequences of such a monumental fuckup is people and companies switching to a different OS and holding Microsoft legally liable for damages incurred. It looks like we are in the "find out" stage where more people are preparing to switch. I've been pretty happy with Linux Mint, but there are some things I would prefer it do better. One would be an easier way to find network drivers that doesn't require plugging it into ethernet during first install.

 

[Eternal Gopnik]

I'm just sitting here waiting for that shithead Poettering to announce he's working on exactly the same thing for systemd and call anyone who objects a racist homophobe.

 

[Smithfield Ham]

Big props to Mutahar for proving MS is full of shit about Recall being secure but just straight up hacking it. No need to debate back and forth or refute MS' bullshit PR point by point when you can just show people they're lying in five seconds.

Also, what would be funnier: MS losing a huge chunk of market share to Linux? Or MS making way more money off ESUs for Windows 10 than W11? Because either way, W11 being a tremendous flop on the level of ME would be hilarious.

 

[The Ghost of Kviv]

The Farms broke and didn't quote whomever wrote about Firefox and passwords. Firefox stops just short of saving passwords in plaintext, it's stored in an unencrypted SQLite DB.

Regarding the "year of the linux PC" or whatever the fuck people who have 20 layers of black construction paper on the interior of their windows think, I agree with not only the eternal September sentiment, but I also just don't see it. Until something takes away the market share microsoft abuses, Linux systems will always be niche desktops or server stuff. And you know what? That's perfectly fine.

I'd go further, not only is it fine, that's what I want. All this corporate bullshit in the Linux world came in because we wanted to make Linux easy for newbies. The past 15 years, we've found out that most people are retarded niggerfaggots when it comes to computers, and they need to stay the fuck away from Linux.

I've gone as far as using OpenBSD in my TV box just because Theo runs a tighter ship. Firefox, Kodi, ffmpeg and x264 run just fine on BSD. And AMD ships FOSS drivers for FreeBSD, just a little delayed.

Sinofsky goes further into why this is being pushed so hard. It's not just Microsoft - it's the PC sector desperate for new PC sales.

Apple makes a shit load of money selling PCs. Macs have a higher margin on returns than phones or tablets, the only issue is volume. Be more like Apple.

What happens with situations where you have company terminals that use individual logins to access confidential data? I’m thinking about stuff like the NHS. Say you’re a doctor or nurse on shift. You share a few computers with everyone and you have to log in to your profile with a keycard which gives you access to whatever info your profile allows in the system. So nurse Doris logs in and sees one set of stuff, doctor Bob sees another but it’s the same machine.
So now locally stored in that machine is everyone’s activity? Across all those profiles? Who can access what from that recall activity?
A lot of companies work like that - it would be a huge security breach if the janitor was able to get hold of confidential stuff from the senior managements profile….

Enterprise runs on different images of NT, or rather, they should. Also, most sensible protected environments run a private network for their computing needs, providing further protection.

Yep, the humble roots of the current "AI" goes all the way back to 2010, and that work is based on research already done by a Japanese academic all the way back in 1985. So, current "AI" is not revolutionary, it's strictly evolutionary, it just suddenly happened to finally become useful.

A lot of it is CUDA, it paid off really well for Jensen. The past 10 years was a buildup of worker drones putting in foundational work for what we see today. For all the shit Google gets, I get the distinct feeling that they've been working on advanced ML for the DoD/DARPA since 2014. Tensorflow was released in 2015, and their big DoD contracts started around 2010 IIRC.

 

[Magnificent Penis]

Microsoft won't lose significant market share any time soon, this is extreme wishful thinking. They can do LITERALLY anything they want as long as the companies basic needs are taken care off (and their basic needs are mostly very simple, document writing, spreadsheets, etc). Whenever a sizable companies' officer looks at the cost of changing their infrastructure to Linux alternatives they will happily insert microsoft's 15 inch dildo deep into their own asses and will call it a win when offered a tiny bit of lube. Don't expect this to change any time soon.

 

[Smithfield Ham]

Windows literally building a spyware program to spy on everything you to do to make AI training data is the kind of thing I'd expect a schizophrenic techbro to write in a manifesto with his pipe bomb. Instead its fucking real.

Obviously you're not going to have millions of people swap over anytime soon, but if you can fuck up a company's Year-Over-Year growth you can send it into a fucking tailspin. Modern corporations are massive ponzi schemes that need to grow infinitely or the scam is up.

No bullshit does anybody have an easy guide to getting windows 7 on my laptop?

Go online, download a Windows 7 Professional ISO to USB, plug into your computer of choice, boot from USB, and install. Bonus points if you find a debloated version already. Anything with hardware too new might have weird compatibility issues with certain drivers, but older non TPM Win10 systems and custom builds should be fine. I'm a Win7 sperg, but if you're not completely tech literate, I do concede that a debloated Win10 install is perfectly adequate for most people, and probably much easier to configure on most newer hardware.

Probably, just find a small distro and look at the dev team. Can you prove not one Troon worked on that Windows 11 ur sweeping for? It's embarrassing man. Get a grip on reality

Can you prove your shit box os will actually run and it's 5 tranny coders know what they're doing? I'll take corpo support with free patches and security updates pal, thanks.

love how actual retards try and gaslight themselves into staying in the increasingly anti-consumer Microsoft ecosystem by pretending Linux is this esoteric bullshit when there are literally nocoding autists on /g/ that can do the extremely trivial task of right clicking and picking some anime picture as their wallpaper on the desktop to show off their desktop "rice".

Guys, can't we just all agree agree that both troons and pajeets are subhuman faggots, regardless of what pozzed OS they use to browse the dark web for illicit hormones and CP?!?!?!

I still prefer Windows 7 over Linux. I miss it so much. But I refuse to use something that no longer gets security updates, especially when I do networking/work stuff on my PC. But I really do fucking hate Windows 11 and try to strip out most of the bullshit while keeping security updates. Even when stripped down I still dislike it, runs like ass from a stability standpoint. Always bouncing between Wangblows and Linux like our dear feeder.

I will stick with Win7 on my daily driver laptop until the heat death of the universe. There is no absolute rule that you can't use it in Current Year Sure, things like Internet Explorer and other programs might be largely incompatible with modern websites and other parts of the Internet, but as long as you're not being a completely reckless retard, hardware is capable, cheap, and 3rd party streamlined security measures are available that are vastly superior to anything that MS ever offered.

Oh, and Recall abso-fucking-lutely will keep running and re-enabling itself regardless of what options you select or what you "consent" to, and I know this because that's what Cortana does now. Windows 10 set the precedent with its telemetry bullshit; Microsoft won't let you opt out of the anal probe. How could Microsoft implement a feature that will be so easily abused by criminals? Simple, it is because they, too are criminals.

Anyone who doesn't think that these "features" will automatically re-enable or get implemented on older hardware that Recall doesn't "qualify" for yet are either naive or retarded. I still occasionally get the tech-illiterate boomer who did the Win8 to Win10 "upgrade" on an underpowered notebook that was in no way able to handle it. And that was a decade ago now, for fucks sake.

Can you elaborate more on keeping Windows 7 secure

 

[Anti Lolicon Bomb]

I'm seeing some weird sentiment in here, acting like this is some big deal or something... like how this time you will switch to Linux because it is the last straw (You won't, It isn't - nobody with an IQ over 80 isn't on Linux already), You all need to understand this is perfectly fine and reasonable for Microsoft, In fact I encourage them to go even further and start making the data public on their users connected socials especially when it's humiliating in nature. You see Windows goys actually deserve this and the Microsofts are only doing the right thing when they piss and shit all over their privacy. Remember when you look at the state of the internet it's because goyniggers flocked to it and turned it into this current abomination, They have ruined everything they touched so they deserve to be treated this way. I hope the next big update makes their systems download gay porn and the AI forces them to watch it before they can play bing bing wahoo or browse tiktok etc.

 

[Betonhaus]

No bullshit does anybody have an easy guide to getting windows 7 on my laptop?

The Windows 7 update service is offline, so if you want any patches you're going to want to find an Windows 7 iso that has all the patches and updates added to it, I think it was on tpb.

For all the shit Google gets, I get the distinct feeling that they've been working on advanced ML for the DoD/DARPA since 2014. Tensorflow was released in 2015, and their big DoD contracts started around 2010 IIRC.

Hah, google can't even make an AI that won't tell you to drink Drano to fix constipation, or make pictures of niggers when you never asked for them. Google backed out of the self driving car tech, and every single project they've tried to come out with in the past five years has failed or been cancelled. If it wasn't for android and their google search they would be dead, and they're trying very hard to make their search a useless propaganda platform.

Ideally the team working on shared hosts will either completely remove any capability for recall to actually function, if not outright remove it entirely from the OS via de-bloating before it's deployed. New versions of an operating system usually don't make it into enterprise production for some time, and when they do it can become a pretty big project to migrate a full fleet of workstations over because of how much shit breaks, these migrations also usually involve a level of approval from the board along with your internal security and risk teams, your technology support and a lot of others. Health care especially as you're often running very particular applications that can end up broken with the slightest change at the core level of an operating system.

If an IT team are allowing shit like recall sort of shit into an environment focusing on health care, government or any business that has such high levels of confidential information they should all be fucking sacked. Sensitive enterprise environments are already targeted enough by threat actors, this would only heighten the risk towards the business and recall should be shot down before it even has a chance to get implemented.

 

[Betonhaus]

I wonder if Windows Pro and Enterprise editions will even have Recall.

I was happy when we decided not to go with Windows 11 and just pay for extended service on Windows 10.

Now I'm relieved we never went with Windows 11. And I'm suddenly worried about what Windows 12 will bring.

Suddenly I'm considering maybe we should switch to Linux...

Yeah, after W10 gets taken out behind the woodshed, I'm simply going to have to use Linux. There's no more coping or workarounds; you're either willing to be monitored by the Eye of Sauron every waking moment or you're not. On the bright side, it will be a fun learning experience.

Considering? You should be on Linux now.

 

[MarvinTheParanoidAndroid]

What is the alternative? I use Linux once, like black tar heroin, it troons me out. I'd rather keep my dick. Do you even have windows 11? Everything can be switched on and off. Including this thing. It's a tool. A retarded one, but a tool that you can choose to activate or not.

I don't understand the paranoia of becoming a tranny over a Linux distro. You do know that Linux has existed way longer than the tranny epidemic, right?

No bullshit does anybody have an easy guide to getting windows 7 on my laptop?

Keep in mind that it's nigh impossible to get drivers for old laptops unless you happen to have an installation disc laying around, and that's before we go into the dangers of having an EoL OS on your system. And all that is if you don't end up downloading a pozzed ISO. You'd be legit better off getting Linux.

As if winrot wasn't bad enough; now you get an SQLite database that is constantly growing in size.

Probably a stupid question but Im just not super computer savvy. Privacy issues aside, would the constant data capture not bog the machine down considerably after a bit? Or eat up your free storage space? I know images arent very big files but if you have a screenshot every 5 seconds that is 12 every minute... that is going to add up right? And to further the question....if somehow this whole recall thing rolls out the way Microsoft envisions and it does eat up too mich local storage/memory, are they going to try to sell you a subscription to storing the Recall data on their cloud in order to free up your own computer?

Another thing I haven't seen been brought up yet is this will basically kill your SSD or HDD with thousands of daily writes and deletes, basically shaving whole years off of your hardware's lifespan by constantly snapping screenshots, ingesting them and deleting them, unless Microsoft really is retarded enough to not delete anything their shitty AI captures, in which case they'll make the computer functionally useless.
