According to Microsoft’s documentation, a user can only change the setting to enable or disable the new People section three times a year.
The fuck is that goddamn thumbnail. You keep shalehket out of this shit.
In Europe this probably goes against GDPR, right? If I don’t agree, they should not collect my face
three times a year.
WTF is up with MS doing this rate limiting? I just learned that Win11 will lock you out of your own machine for 2 hours if you restart too many times, like if you have a dualboot and are doing something that requires restarts to resolve.
This is why I decided to dual-boot Ubuntu and Win10 until I’m fully comfortable on Linux. Every single thing about Win11 just makes my skin crawl.
Last week it was the news that they’re eliminating methods to install the OS at all without being signed into a MS account. The degree of snooping had no plausible explanation other than for Microsoft to harvest and sell your data.
What the shit? Ooh, I need to test this on my work computer!
it’s a very good feature. if you have too much work and need a longer break, just restart a few times. i may need to change my work laptop from macbook to a windows
I think that’s why it’s recommended to encrypt files containing personal information with a separate tool before uploading them to any cloud service. It prevents big data from automatically processing your Information and protects you from leaks.
If I hadn’t abandoned OneDrive already, this would make me do so.
Yeah but they are taking your data from the laptop your mum bought yesterday and put all the family vacation pictures on. Mum didn’t know she had to kill off OneDrive or Microsoft will hoover up and monetise your memories.
Jokes on them, the friends and family that aren’t techs are mac users. I’m the only w11 user and that’s only for work. (And you bet your fat arse that’s lobotomised)
Fortunately not… I’m generally the one responsible for IT maintenance with my parents’ as they get older. Disabled OneDrive long ago since they don’t use it.
By mates, do they mean buddies or procreative partners?
Australians
Yes
Both are good
Ha, joke’s on you Microsoft: I don’t have any mates.
Jokes on them, I don’t have any mates!
