Microsoft AI wants ALL of your storage 

Sounds like asus rma process

Samsung has a privacy policy unlike Microsoft I need to go back to Samsung even if it's the A series Smartphones I miss my A02s small storage but has a simcard slot so I wasn't too worried about it I never really cared for 4k or 8k or this k and that k it's a damn scam and drains your battery maybe on a computer or SmartTV but Smartphones need worked on I just switched to Linux and not going back for a long time.

Isn't that literal stealing, because you damage.someone else's property that Samsung doesn't have any right of modification beyond software anymore ?

Disassembling someone's phone can't be legal. When cars first became popular in the United States, some states required car owners to disassemble if a horse was startled.

@@sub_rapierAt most, they can say have you agree to the terms that they’ll alter the device in that way upon you turning in the phone. But it would be illegal if they just did that without telling you that was a service requirement

Yeah, the ‘book’ part in the name is a bit of a giveaway isn’t it? 😎

That’s nuts

Wait, what?! mine has been open since I turn it on for the first time.

So do all iPads if a little bit too much force is applied.

​@@GeoStreberJerryRigEverything approved

yeah they are at the top of a**hole companies, but it seems like Samsung is trying to catch up.

Seriously! I love how after they were forced to adopt usb-c, they put out a press release making it seem like it was their idea all along because they care. Pure. Greedy. Evil.

? they switched all ports of their macs back in 2016, and we all had to use dongles for everything else. We didnt even have Magsafe. Also, they switched ipads from lightning to USB-C back in 2018.

All these big companies are guilty of this sort of marketing, remember when Apple deleted the headphone jack and Samsung beat their chest in media saying look we still have a headphone jack, and not long down the track Samsung did exactly the same thing, And then Apple removed the charger and accessories that used to always come with a new phone, same thing all over again with Samsung again mocking Apple and then doing exactly the same thing, and Samsung was on a roll then, galaxy phones in the non ultra models downgraded the screens from 2k to 1080 p and around that time they also deleted the glass backs for plastic 😂 , talk about penny pinching. And check out this bulldust with repairs on the galaxy devices , just disgraceful , and this is why I stopped buying galaxy phones. Samsung years ago used to be the best , this is why I no longer buy samsung gear.​@@JasonReagan84

​@@JasonReagan84It only took a government to enforce it, the European one :)

Kinky. Or rapey, depending on perspective.

thats amazing, im stealing that.

...I mean 99% of windows settings you can literally type into the search bar and the relevant setting window will come up. That's how I turned off all of the cortana and ad stuff on my windows 10 machine. Didn't take diving into the catacombs to find.

Technically disabling bitlocker should prevent Recall from working, along with not using a M$ account as copilot requires both, technically....

well the biggest market for this is going to be business. And they will not give you the option to disable it. It will be on recording everything their workers do. Two things I will bet good money will happen in the next 2 years. Firstly Recall will turn itself back on during a forced Windows update. Microsoft will explain that default states are just applied and by default its on. So most people won't even know its on. Secondly and this is the big one and the entire reason Recall exists IMO. Around 12 months into this Microsoft will announce quietly that it will begin uploading your encrypted images to their servers for EXTRA processing to make your search results even better! You can of course opt out of this.....sure Microsoft, sure we can. And that data will then be used to train a LLM how to use Windows. Or rather how we humans use Windows across millions of varied circumstances. It's just exactly what they need right now with copilot trying to become some super assistant. And while I'm tin foil hatting. By the next version of Windows Recall with be an integral part of Windows itself. There will be no off button for it. It will do far more too and just automatically upload everything you do. I would imagine it would start to interrupt you also. So say I'm about to throw a file in this one location. It will grab it and put it where it should go. A bit like auto correct with spelling but for what you're doing in Windows. Recall has a bright future for Microsoft, I just don't think most people are seeing it for what it really is.

Hey y'all should get the O&O Shutup10++ program. It allows you to disable telemetry and tinker with other privacy settings

​@@ClayMann I am not sure that they'll need to move the screenshots to their servers, it would be the easyest way, but it would raise a lot of red flags, they could recognize some usage patterns locally and share them. As it is not puctures people would be less scared

I'm testdriving Windows 10 LTSC at the moment and if I'm happy with it after my evaluation period I will be switching the rest of my workstations to it. Things are looking good so far. I CAN UNINSTALL EDGE.

Wouldn't that kill an HDD equally as quickly? I can't imagine that any storage type likes constant polling except RAM.

Those sceenshot is stored locally..that is why those feature use more drive storage.

@@RokeJulianLockhart.s13ouq probably, but for the different reasons. SSDs have limited numbers of written TB (250GB ssd will forseeably end its lifespan after about 150TB written). HDDs will have an extra hard time moving head from writing sectors position to writting sectors, and while they are officialy not limited by amount of written data, it'd make them extra slow and add strain to its moving parts.

In theory this is true, but we don't know how much space will be used per day, it will obviously depend on the amount and kind of things done, but if it were like 200 GB a year, in ten years it would be 2 TB, so insignificant on SSD life.

It's even worse when you realize that they programmed it so it won't capture any DRM content like Netflix, so they are going out of their way to protect other corporations while literally recording everything you do.

The laptops don't get cheaper though

@@zanblr Remember, price cuts don't trickle down.

Fr if you actually wanna learn Linux I learned by watching the Linux expirement 🙃

I got a good deal on a MacMini M1 for 350€, MacOS is suprisingly clean from Apple's usually bullshit. The window management is bad but fixable and it's not locked down like in terms of sideloading. Also Updates for MacOS are painless compared to Windows and no ADs baked in.

@@2failepic I should be dumb to use any Apple device, the company I hate the most.

@@littleharry7977 now learn how to make apps for linux to learn how much your gui protocols suck. This must be fixed because mass people and devs move to linux.

MentalOutlaw on installing Gentoo. Priceless xD

This is where linux comes to play

​​@@pikagamer9676💪🏽. Linux, ollama and a few scripts. Git gud, Ai with none of the Microsoft bloat. 🤤

There's still too many programs I use that aren't available on Linux, it sucks to not be able to make the switch yet

First make the lives of our devs a breeze with a consistent GUI protocol. No really okayish org gonna target your platform because of how much your gui protocols diversify. I never believe that linux gui games are gonna to come that uses the native system

@@PomuLeafEveryday there are always OSS version of all the programs avaialbe on Linux (for instance use GIMP instead of PS) or play games through Wine (you would have to do some adjustments, but its not a problem if you are a skilled user)

Let's see whether we see a benefit when people actually start using Recall. Some things can better be judged when practically trying them.

100GB allocated storage for Microsoft Recall is insane. I'd rather waste it on some AAA games or storing downloaded YT videos than allocating it for Microsoft Recall

Ya, no.. I have used Windows personally and as a core part of my career for decades and I have no interest in this AI fad that Microsoft and others are pushing increasingly heavily. It's bad enough that the OS is littered with "suggestions" and app links I never asked for, and that telemetry can't be fully disabled, and that perfectly usable devices are to be made obsolete so Microsoft can push even more of this junk through Windows 11. No thanks. I'm giving serious thought to moving to Linux for my home environment. I just need a Server 2019 AD/GPO replacement that doesn't take a Linux guru or infinite patience to setup and I'll be off I think.

@@sihamhamda47 So many people lacking reading comprehension. You can lower it to 25GB on a 1TB drive and down to 10GB on the lower storage drives. You can also disable the feature altogether.

Yeh, I thought exactly the same, seems like a gimmick rather than anything you would use regularly.

You were using Copilot?

I never even used Cortana back in the day, let alone use Copilot today. Just disable everything you can.

Copilot is finishing where Cortana left off do they think we're that stupid Microsoft is gullible!!!!

I keep removing it. They keep adding it back after every update lol

First thing I do is turn all that crap off, it's more annoying than useful and uses processor and memory I would rather allocate to something useful.

It would have to be an open source effort like with M-series macs. You can use those with Linux already btw.

After the smartphone nothing really need to have was invented.

Lol. That is what companies do.

Now?! You mean, As Usual...

Got to keep the industry churning.

Of course it was, a scam right from the start

Actually a lot of people thought about that, and they were right

AI isn't for regular people such as us, it's for rich people.

Ai just machine learning with steroid, except ai develop in quantum computer, AI just massive library book with good search engine and give just what we want

i have been since windows 11 released and windows 10 was announced EoL in 2025

I switched to Linux about a year ago after being frustrated with Microsoft, and at least for my needs I couldn't be happier, it just works. I have everything I need to daily drive my PC, and perhaps more importantly I have nothing else. Also, I'm not personally a big gamer, but to my total surprise the few PC games I play work completely fine with Steam Proton, I couldn't tell they are being emulated.

@@benoitrousseau4137Proton is based on Wine, and its devs don’t want people to call it an emulator. "Wine (originally an acronym for 'Wine Is Not an Emulator') is a compatibility layer capable of running Windows applications on several POSIX-compliant operating systems, such as Linux, macOS, & BSD. Instead of simulating internal Windows logic like a virtual machine or emulator, Wine translates Windows API calls into POSIX calls on-the-fly, eliminating the performance and memory penalties of other methods and allowing you to cleanly integrate Windows applications into your desktop."

Just remember to start off with Mint instead of Ubuntu, Manjaro, Pop_OS, etc. Many beginners make the mistake of choosing the latter ones because they're the most well-known names among non-linux-users and end up with a horrible user experience.

@@RogueParatha i much rather get manjaro or arch. i tried mint, it's alright, but i want something different and manjaro looks good, arch i tried out and learned the hard way that not installing konsole, pacman and a web browser is a mistake, but this happened within a virtual machine luckily

I agree with you, especially when the M1 Ultra quadtrupled the bacis M1 cores/performance, and still only had 16 power cores. And their 12 power cores can't even increase the performance any further (just 10% improved performance when you increase the power consumption with 250%? Because from 23W to 80W is about 250% extra what they use for that 10% extra performance)

not to mention Air doesn't have a fan, while Surface does

It is a brag if the cost of the chip is less, no?

The investor class is dumb and chases buzz words

Thats what marketing does to human mind. Heck, if they market it honestly, all these Ai-products will be called "Human Personality and Data Harvester for Enhanced Supercomputing for Big Businesses Use" and people will still fall for it. Thats why they push and integrate this Ai-product into almost everything despite of having lesser demand from consumers. All the data they gathered can be utilized to offset the backlashes they receives and potentially become a huge profit-maker as well.

It's the equivalent of 3D tv.

@@user-ce8ut8hr9k 3D TV was actually cool tho

I just saw a video of a women talking about AI taking over jobs and everyone in the comments were saying AI will remove 90% of the jobs. Only one thing was recollected in my mind, NFT bros few yrs ago

It is amazing how companies can change mate , what i think it comes down to is when big companies have a Leadership change , you might have a very fair minded leader that wants to give the customer good value , then a different more ambitious leader takes over that is all about making money and points for himself. I started buying Samsung gear in 2012 , you can see a change in the way companies do business over time.

Don't worry, it will last. Maybe even into 2030s. It is very well build. I also purchased one, and I research a lot before buying. The price of components of s24 Ultra are significantly cheaper than that of S22U or S23U too, incase you need repair. People have stopped replacing phones regularly, so Samsung hopes to now make money by selling AI subscription to you in the future, so now it is in their interest too that you are using their device.

They still updated SailfishOS and made it avidible for new hardware

@@perfektpeter8037 That's true

@@perfektpeter8037 Yeah but how is it? It looks way better than Android and iOS 12 years ago, dunno about now.

Trying to get even greedier than Apple

Face of Samsung: “We make repairable products unlike Apple!” Actual Samsung: “We make products that shame us to Apple!”

That program is like exact same as Apple then, according to Louis Rossmann videos from few years ago. You can't get parts you need, need to report all customers info, need to account for all the parts you used, self snitch on all the things you cant really have (anything that isnt provided by Apple) and you have to sign NDA so you cant say how shit program it is without facing legal action.

​@@HarrisonLuiEKYiss not something new, they posted once an image stating that their phones do include chargers, 1 year later they removed them and deleted the post

No, they got used OLED screen imports for their phones banned last year from the USA.

AI is the realization for an automation of tasks we’ve been dreaming up since the Mechanical Turk. If you want a real bubble look at crypto.

​@@doujinflip you sound exactly like NFT bros who told nft/block chain was the future and will be used in everything.

Not really. It never was a bubble. the AI is the future

you can always dualboot

who cares, move fast and break things is the way for almost all tech at this point

probably.. but its then Microsoft they will now save SSD's by storing the data in the cloud instead.

Probably future laptops will have a special inaccessible storage just for AI. Because there is also security risks with that many screenshots.

@@ksh6I can’t tell if you’re being ironic. You mean that as a dystopian prediction, right? And by inaccessible storage you just mean storage? Because if it’s accessible to an AI, then it’s accessible, just with an extra step. Personal files stored on your computer so they’re not accessible by you, only by a third party? Perhaps a better term would be malware or maybe spyware?

Probably not. I’ve had 16 GB swap on a 512 GB SSD in Linux for 2 years and it’s only at 4% wear level.

Then we have a vista situation but worse, since then 99% of machines are locked out and you can't demand that every user buys a expensive AI PC just to get more ads into Windows. If they do that and drop windows 11 support as quick as they did with windows 10 Microsoft has lost

They backported the Win8 telemetry to 7 a looong time ago...

I need Windows 11 looks + Windows 7 Microsoft or I will switch to a Mac…

@@HarrisonLuiEKYissmake it using linux lol i would recommend something running kde plasma for appearance customisation

Checks and balances?! Oh, that's cute! LOL

then GPU is the other option for AI calcs

When games become spywares too.

@@r.a.6459 do you mean the kernel level rootkits within games?

You can run Windows within Linux as a VM with pretty much most windows programs working properly.

Run a VM, or learn FreeCAD.

Dual Boot?

Hardware with WWAN modules from Lenovo is currently subject to a sales ban in Germany. It's about patents and licenses.

​@@ferdynand40Is the same story with Iphone 12 who is forbidden in France.

Install one next to your OS and start using it. It usually takes just a few minutes and normally it should just work. You'll discover things on the way

What do you want to learn? Desktop? Command line? Server? Virtualization? Containers? Building a system for yourself? Its a big subject.

Well, I actually do know how to use it, I was making a joke, but I guess it failed😂😂😂

2 min ago is more crazier

15 minutes ago

You'd like to see and they will deliver. Like it's any hard to give the user access to data after entering a credential, while still having access yourself. It's like Mommy only giving you a cookie after your say "please" and then you think that you're in control of the cookies and nobody else can have any. That's delusional

Yes can be off
