  1. Carefully read every Privacy Policy Update, Terms of Service, and Security Update Release Notes for the rest of your life to make sure it isn't stealth-reenabled.

  1. Put a recurring event in your calendar to also make sure they didnt sneaky reenable it anyways.
  2. Set up monitoring to warn you of irregular activities originating from your pc, just in case they reenable it for everyone without telling they did and denying it.

  1. Get frustrated and switch to Linux

  1. worry about your friends and family still using windows
  2. worry about how recall seems to be designed to be extra portable
  3. argue with yourself that actually its no wonder its made from sqlite, as its a recognized archival format, unlike microsofts own database wares
  4. argue with yourself that it really really looks like it was made to get "evidence" from a computer more easily but surely it wont be that bad
  5. marvel at how generous microsoft suddenly seems to be at the prospect of not-MS using a user's data... they could have asked for a ms access license or something or made it optional and to pay... but then people might not buy npu equiped pcs... what else could you do with an npu in "everyones" homes?

Oh posh posh. Just join the Linux bandwagon.

[-] spujb@lemmy.cafe 13 points 5 months ago

might need to use factory OS to download your first .iso is all

Ok we'll not store images on your box. Now, about classifying your usage and notifying authorities if it falls outside of parameters...

Cries in gamedev and Linux still not having proper pro-audio support

[-] boo_@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 5 months ago

What's missing in PipeWire for it to be "pro audio"? Genuine question, since I've been making some music casually and heard from music producers that it's actually quite good.

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

What I'm missing is compatibility of applications.

[-] boo_@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 5 months ago

If you're interested, I have a good experience with yabridge for running Windows VSTs in Linux-native DAWs. If it's the applications themselves, then I have no experience. I ran the FL Studio demo in Wine for a few minutes but that's essentially the end of my experience, since I have Reaper.

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Next question: driver support for the Arturia Minifuse on Linux?

[-] boo_@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 5 months ago

Seems to have an ALSA UCM configuration since 2022: https://github.com/alsa-project/alsa-ucm-conf/issues/220

If I've understood this correctly, it should just work, and PipeWire should understand the interface.

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

Thank you, now my only issue will be me having to pirate the few free plugins came with my interface if they'll have DRM issues with whatever compatibility layer there is for Linux DAWs.

[-] boo_@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 5 months ago

Happy to help! Have fun!

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Same here. I guess as soon as Microsoft marketing found out how much power this could give them, all disagreements will be "fixed" in the next mandatory update, the switch to disagree will vanish, and the screenshots will be "backed up" on their own servers.

step 1: Open a window. It doesn't matter which one step 2: throw your computer through the window.
