Yes agreed 10000%. S1 Picard was so confusing to me because of what you said. Did nobody in the writers room watch that episode of TNG?? There’s a few more too!!

“The Most Toys” asserts Data’s humanity over and over again. That episode with the Exocomps talks about tech sentience thru evolution and the effect on self preservation. That other episode about terraforming and finding the inorganic life forms. So many to choose from!

First 30 seconds of Picard: “These damn dirty robot slaves are so whiny and cranky!”

Me: 🤦

    Yeah not to be obtuse here, but I think the fear is over sensationalized. I haven’t seen it in person, but it seems like this is a totally new product that is similar to idea of browser history, but adds in some modern features. I would like to check it out.

    on-by-default

    That’s not correct. Based on the documentation, Windows Setup has an option to enable/disable the feature on first boot.

    The documentation also says it doesn’t capture incognito windows and I mentioned in my other comment that you can turn it off temporarily and permanently. It doesn’t run all the time no matter what, like some of the comments have suggested.

    Here’s a screenshot of the config page with a simple toggle to turn off:

    Hmm that didn’t sound right so I had to look it up. Microsoft says there’s a way to pause the recall snapshot functionality for a set amount of time, like an incognito mode:

    Pause or resume snapshots To pause recall, select the Recall icon in the system tray then Pause until tomorrow.  Snapshots will be paused until they automatically resume at 12:00 AM. When snapshots are paused, the Recall system tray icon has a slash through it so you can easily tell if snapshots are enabled. To manually resume snapshots, select the Recall icon in the system tray and then select Resume snapshots.

    I don’t understand why there’s so much FUD around this product…

    I had a friend who had an aluminum MacBook Pro around the late 2000s.

    I was really jealous of him because his laptop had a full keyboard with a 10 key numpad at the right.

    I am trying to find it now, but my Google-Fu is failing me. Too many results for external keyboards.

    Can anyone locate a photo or number of the model that I'm looking for?

    EDIT: Apparently it doesn't exist. Thanks everyone!

    (me currently trying to think what other laptop it must have been...)

    Fallout 76 (lemmy.world)
     

    I signed up and played 76 after the first release—you know, the one with only like 3 humans.

    It was my favorite experience. Empty, beautiful, peaceful and very exciting. The ambient music is my favorite of the whole series and it really set the tone.

    I liked the feeling that you and a few other people online were the only real human survivors and the bots and mutants were the only things left in the world.

    That changed after people complained… I quit after some changes were made. I logged in recently and now it’s full of generic NPCs and bullet sponge enemies. Not for me anymore.

    I guess I’ll never be able to go back to that feeling right after release. It really was something else.

    Anybody else play the game right after it was released?

     

    I'm only a few episodes into the first season, but it has great special effects and I'm really getting into the story. A few times, the news cutaways of Nixon/JFK look/sound a bit weird, but overall it's very convincing.

    Just got to the episode with Wernher in court and it was TENSE.

    Does it stay good throughout the 3 seasons? Worth watching the whole thing?
