For those who aren’t aware, Microsoft have decided to bake essentially an infostealer into base Windows OS and enable by default.

From the Microsoft FAQ: “Note that Recall does not perform content moderation. It will not hide information such as passwords or financial account numbers."

Info is stored locally - but rather than something like Redline stealing your local browser password vault, now they can just steal the last 3 months of everything you’ve typed and viewed in one database.

Well that's the end of btrfs for me.

Barely a month in it's shat itself and taken /home with it.

Hopefully it recovers to external drive and I can just copy back on to something stable like ext4

I've lived this long without metadata checksum and snapshot.

JFC You can't upgrade Drupal 9 (eol) to 10 without composer, and you can't use composer without github because you need some weird API token. What fucked up shit is this ?

So farewell, horrible reactionary god-botherer, scion of the Death Committee and enthusiastic torturer, maimer, rapist and murderer of women who wanted human rights.

Hoping Ncuti Gatwa can display more than his usual two expressions tonight. The serious Masters Of The Air one and the open mouthed blank Doctor Who one. Steven Moffat should give him something better to get his teeth into than Snot Babies and Doctor Glee.

the inverse of "make sure you have working backups of what's important" is "give yourself permission to delete digital detritus that no longer has any value to your life"

you do not need every email you've received for the last decade.

you do not need three copies of every photo you've ever taken with your phone.

you do not need the downloads folder for each of your previous twelve laptops.

you can delete some stuff.

Q: Is 23 less then twenty five ?
A: No, 23 is not less than 25.

and #gpt4all (nous hermes 2 mistral DPO) which is somehow even worse

"
Q: Is 23 less then twenty five ?
A: No, 23 is not less than 25. In fact, it is greater by 2 units (25 - 23 = 2).

Well, I tried Wayland.

Two hard crash, full lock ups, one with graphic corruption and one with a flash of black from the display before it came back locked.

Going back to X11 for another year or two
