I don't understand why Lemmy is so obsessed with Recall. It only works if you have an ARM CPU with an NPU. Nearly every Windows user is on an x86-64 chip.
Yes I agree that it shouldn't exist in Windows at all, but everyone is complaining about a feature that less than 1% of users even have access to; the amount of people who opt into using is going to be even smaller.
Stop obsessing over it so much and find something different to hate on Microsoft over. God knows there's plenty of other reasons to dislike them. Seriously, it's so annoying. I'm about to set a filter for the word "recall".
First they came for the ARM CPU users type mentality
*sigh* you're not wrong but the constant posts are annoying.
I get that it is annoying for you since you obviously don’t have a pc that will run it, yet.
But a lot of problems in tech started because it was just there and didn’t do that much yet. Lots of governments are still catching up to the big tech to stop them from having too much power, because they slept on it.
I dislike the recall stuff too, I don’t have a pc that will be able to run it and probably won’t have one for the coming 10 years, unless there is a huge leap in performance. But I do appreciate all the people here making their voices heard and actually bending MS their knee as well.
So please filter it and get out of the way of the nice people, thank you
No, it works on x86-64 assuming the device has a sufficient NPU. Both AMD and Intel CPUs latest CPUs list the Recall preview as available now.
So it's just a matter of time then? When can we complain? A year from now? Two years? Do we have to wait for the next garbage thing Microsoft does? Hey, why don't you just tell us exactly when it's okay for us to complain? We bow to you oh great one. We live by your command.
Wait for them build it before you complain? Wild take.
Don't argue with me or it's straight to the Gulag for you
Not to mention it’s optional, entirely on device, and secure.
Let’s be honest, most of Lemmy users complaining about it are on Linux or a Chromebook anyway. They can’t use it even if they wanted to.
Well, if they say it's secure, it must be secure!
Chromebook? Lmao
We run Linux on them because they're cheap and disposable.
Disposable? Gross.
You use the same computer every day? Now that's unhygienic.
