Microsoft Recall is MANDATORY

It Happened. Yes, it is now a dependency in File Explorer.Refer to Issue @ https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/winutil/issues/2697Pull Request Patch @ https://...

TLDR:
Windows 11 v24H2 and beyond will have Recall installed on every system. Attempting to remove Recall will now break some file explorer features such as tabs.

    You’ve got until late 2025 before 10 stops receiving security updates. I would not stay long after that.

      I will be SO glad when my Windows 10 stops getting forced updates.

            I’m not sure why you wouldn’t use Linux for that. You can make some arguments against Linux on the desktop (although I don’t agree) but Linux as a server has been clearly superior for a long time.

                Because it will run jellyfin, with fewer system resources, and still get security updates (that you can configure to auto install at the correct time) for … free.

                You also won’t at some point find yourself running such an old version of Windows that jellyfin no longer updates unless you buy the latest version of Windows.

                You can just go download Ubuntu desktop LTS and do everything by just opening a terminal, plopping that one liner, and letting it run: https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/installation/linux/#repository-automatic

                I’ll flip the script and ask “why in the world would you use Windows for something that doesn’t require it?”

                  Because Its already installed, working fine, and I don’t need it, I believe the very first thing I said is “in pretty sure my dedicated jellyfin server will be fine”

                  Which once again, means I don’t care about security updates on that computer, why would I put in extra work? Because it’s Lemmy’s favorite browser?

                  Who cares, windows works just fine in that use case

                    I really wish more people took security seriously. Something that is not receiving security updates is not working just fine.

                    Just make sure your network firewall is good I guess. That’s the only proper way to run outdated stuff and even then it’s sketchy.

                    Also it’s an operating system not a browser.
