Step 1: Install Linux.

Arch btw.

I have better things to do than spend hours trying to do simple things like permanent mounting of a network drive.

I wish it were that easy. I'm pretty tech literate and I've had Linux installed on and off since the late 1990's. I'm running fedora desktop on a dual boot machine that also has windows 10. The PC will run windows 11 but just like everyone else I'm not excited to upgrade.

But I still have to hop over to windows to do things. I know it's a chicken and egg thing, but Linux just needs to get over the hump if ease of use and app availability.

Having to switch from. App1 to app1 that boat do say, CAD, is hard. It's a learning curve. And add that learning curve into also switching to Linux and it's overwhelming.

I actually got my dad on fedora, and he went all in and set it up, and worked quite diligently to get everything working for how he used his computer. He did this because his PC was fine but not windows 11 compatible. End the end there were just too many things that he struggled with and he broke down and bought a new PC that came with 11. One of the big issues he had was with documents. Syncing documents that he was editing.

He was OK relearning a new Libre Office but it was syncing it back to a Google drive or something that ultimately did not work for him. (I can't remember exactly what he was doing).

He ran with Fedora for a couple months before giving up

Setting aside for the moment that it is a much better idea to just stop using windows. One of Microsofts arguments for why you shouldn't continue using Windows 10 is because it will stop being updated and will soon be insecure and get inundated with malware, adware, spyware ect. But Windows 11 already comes preinstalled with all of that so what difference does it make?

[–] Pamasich@kbin.earth -5 points 6 days ago

You're delusional if you think Microsoft's preinstalled crap is at all comparable to what hackers will do with a vulnerable PC.

Also this feature in particular is only for AI PCs which your Win10 PC probably won't upgrade to.

Watching Windows gets worse and worse is a lot more fun when you don't have to use it. I use Mint btw.

[–] muhyb@programming.dev 18 points 1 week ago

Fun for us. Not so fun for people who have to use it.

For the folks saying install Linux keep in mind you can indirectly be captured by this feature.

For example if you’re playing an online video game you’ll be captured or your chat messages in your messaging app.

By stop using Windows ???

“How to disable this opt in feature”: “don’t turn it on”

I get that Lemmy is a bastion for M$ hate but FUD articles get annoying.

[–] Pamasich@kbin.earth -2 points 6 days ago

Also it's only for AI Windows which requires an AI chip. Considering how anti-AI the fediverse is, I doubt any of the people here would be getting AI Windows in the first place. It's a non-issue for the users here already from the get-go at the requirements.

[–] empireOfLove2@lemmy.dbzer0.com 23 points 1 week ago

It won't be just opt-in for very long.

Does the prnhub trick still work? Recall detecting nudity on the screen and stop capturing.

I seem to remember the feature was opt-in, right?

I'd check, but this hasn't made it to my Copilot+ PC, despite all the fuss.

[–] WanderingThoughts@europe.pub 36 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Microsoft style opt-in probably. You can choose between Yes and Later

[–] lagoon8622@sh.itjust.works 30 points 1 week ago

And no matter what you choose, they'll silently enable it next month
